Uhhhh.... awesome?
This is the worst thing I've ever seen in my life... I'm kidding.
How amazing would it be if they actually went all out on this?
-Release a proper pokedex:with the voice options (or update the 3ds one)
-A watch alternative to that plus gizmo..
-AR Headset option or at least during tournaments
-Voice commands?
-Actually give them unique personalities & quirks
-Side games similar to the beauty contests & interactivity that plays more like Nintendogs, and pkmn Snap!

I miss when everyone was playing this game. When you go out to the park with your friends, and say "wanna play PokeGo?" "Sure". It was that for a whole two - three months. This game brought people together and gave the world peace. Good times.
While it is not a bad game
In my personal opinion it could use a lot of improved/expanded upon game mechanics and features to help it be more engaging, this is supposed to be the closest to Pokemon IRL. The main problem I see within this game is that after a while, it gets old. I even have a google doc on the improvements I would make if I could.
Some features that could be improved/expanded upon are Combat Power Levels, Side Quests, Features for when you join a Team, Battling, New Battling Mechanics, and so on.
But its not a bad game, just could use a little more features to help it.
