What we want from Pokémon Gen 10

With the Mega Dimension DLC out for Pokémon Legends ZA, our resident Pokéxperts gathered share their wishes for the next iteration of the series. Honestly, a lot of the main mechanics have been pretty ironed out over time, so we delve into a bit more of the hardcore fan desire in this one.  Also!
