Give us some city scaling

Z-A will be Game Freak’s chance to establish the pillars of the Legends sub-series. If open-world exploration remains part of that, having a city setting means we’ll probably navigate the environment differently this time around. Lumiose City’s defining landmark is the Prism Tower, the city’s gym and Pokémon’s in-universe equivalent of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Based on what we know about Z-A, this tower and most of the city may be under construction throughout the main story, but it would still be great to get Spider-Man-style city scaling in a Pokémon game similar to some areas in Scarlet and Violet, including climbing to the top of Prism Tower to take in the view.

All of that depends on if Z-A is more open-world like Arceus or Scarlet and Violet, or if it goes for a more ground-level style of traversal like Grand Theft Auto. If it’s the latter, hopefully we can still ride on Pokémon to get around, or maybe even go back to the Let’s Go games’ way of letting you ride on your party Pokémon instead of designated transportation characters.
