Spoilers What would you want in potential future remakes?

With the Delta Episode in ORAS indicating that:

The storylines from Generations III-V take place in a separate world from XY/ORAS where Mega Evolutions never existed,

There may be remakes of FRLG, HGSS, DPPt and BW/B2W2 taking place in the same universe as XY/ORAS where Mega Evolutions do exist. Given this possibility, what would you guys want in those games, in terms of game mechanics, storyline, etc. I'll post what I want to get this thread rolling:

Remakes of FRLG: I would definitely want more storylines in the plot, as the original Kanto games (and the first remakes) had a really basic one composed of beating the Gym Leaders and Elite Four/Champion while dealing with a villainous team that didn't do much compared to the future teams (Rocket stole money & Pokemon, its biggest threat being taking over a company while teams like Magma, Aqua and Galactic actually threatened the world, if not the universe).

For example, there could be an additional storyline (perhaps post-game for this) where Giovanni leads a faction of Team Rocket to Cerulean Cave to capture and control Mewtwo (maybe that's why they were after the Master Ball?). You battle Giovanni one last time (this time, he can Mega Evolve his strongest Pokemon like Rhyperior) and after you beat him, you get to battle Mewtwo.

Oh, and it would be nice to be able to have rematches against the Kanto gym leaders.

Remakes of HGSS: The original Johto games (and their first remakes) kind of had a similar problem in that there wasn't really much of a storyline other than the basics (although more than the Kanto games). So yeah, there could be more to the story, such as maybe Archer (who can Mega Evolve his Houndoom) is successful in reaching out to Giovanni (yes, I know that he did manage to reach out to him in HGSS but that was only seen in an event-activated plot and not much came out of it other than a familial revelation) and there is an added component to the Team Rocket plot where you get to battle Giovanni (outside an event).

Also, I definitely want the game to be more challenging. When I played Crystal and HeartGold, I noticed how I didn't even side-train that much and yet there were 10+-level differences between my Pokemon and the NPC's Pokemon. Heck, Level 50 is the highest level in the initial Indigo League run. So yeah, there could definitely be a bit more of a challenge.

Remakes of DPPt: I can't really criticize the Gen IV games that much since the plots were picked up at this point (if not in Gen III). And the games were still somewhat of a challenge so no problem there. But I would definitely want to see some Primal Reversions (or some other variation of Mega Evolution) for Dialga and Palkia (and maybe Giratina, definitely a Mega Evolution at the least). And Cyrus should definitely be able to Mega Evolve his Weavile. And Cynthia for Garchomp.

Remakes of BW/B2W2: Yeah, again can't really add much suggestions for the Gen V games. But definitely want to see Primal Reversions/Mega Evolutions for Reshiram, Zekrom and Kyurem. And Ghetsis should be able to Mega Evolve his Hydreigon while Alder/Iris should be able to Mega Evolve their Volcarona/Haxorus.

Hopefully this thread is allowed and I would love to see what others have to say about this subject matter!

I actually prefer Team Rocket role over the other villaneous teams, so I'd prefer it to stay that way. It doesn't always have to be the world, a mafia-like crime organisation that tries to control media and stuff to gain control over the country sound pretty good to me. It's just more realistic.

I think DPPt probably would look so much better with the current (or whatever's coming next's) graphics. I'd love to see the Spear Pillar incident redone. While the whole concept of what was happening was pretty grandiose, the rough look of the original Diamond and Pearl just didn't catch it very well (Pt was an improvement), and BW's big legend appearance somehow managed to seem more awe-inspiring, despite the dragons not even being the embodiments of all existence.

Oh, and with Gen IV, please adjust the story so there's something after the Spear Pillar incident to look forward to. And PLEASE don't give Giritina the shaft. I know it's unlikely they'd keep Pt's events, but that was so much more climatic than the originals. Or, at least repurpose it as a Ep. Delta kind of thing.
