When it comes to development time, it is hard for me to say if this game is coming out too soon. We have no idea when this game was in development. From all we know, other teams were used to make Legends Arceus while the team that worked on SV was put to work on this game as soon as SwSh was done. If so, that is three years on one game.

It also looks as if the idea of an "open world" game has been on Pokemon's mind for a long while. SwSh could have been a testing idea on certain things. They then up it in the SwSh DLC and then it was upped again in Legends Arceus. My guess is that SV is going to take that idea even further to give us Game Freak's idea of open world.

Though, the two things that I like the best is...

1) We can hopefully go back to gyms. I am tired of throwing balms at Pokemon as I run for my life. Legends Arceus did a cool thing in mixing up the formula but I want my gyms back and less looking over my shoulder for the next Pokemon that will eat my liver.

2) No real pick for Starter yet but I like Fuecoco on just name alone. Spanish for Fire and coco as in Spanish for crocodile. Pretty cute.
