Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are bringing plenty of new features to the long-running franchise. Full-on multiplayer, open-world exploration, and a non-linear story are all firsts for the JRPG series. While Scarlet and Violet continue to add to the much-needed supply of cute characters, one detail in the most recent Pokémon Presents shows that taking inspiration from an unlikely source could be the perfect addition. By blending the world of Pokémon with unique gameplay mechanics from the Persona series, Nintendo could make the most compelling RPG ever.
