For me, I want pokemon contests to be a prominent option. I want an alternative to battling. I mean, isn’t it a bit weird that in a world full of majestic, basically magical creatures, pretty much all the player can do with them is make them murder each other?
Peaceful usage of pokemon makes perfect lore sense and would be a great way to give more variety. We already had pokemon contests in past games (my favourite was gen 3’s), but they haven’t existed for a while now and honestly they were never a big focus. Gen 3 gave them the most focus but they were still a fairly small side content. I’d love to see them emphasized more strongly. What if they were fleshed out to an equal length as the regular gym circuit?
