Pokemon Legends: Arceus demonstrated how exploring the history of an already established region benefits fans, new and old. Unlike Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, the stylized design of Legends: Arceus acted as a much-needed overhaul of the franchise – one that will hopefully continue into a separate franchise running concurrently with the mainline series.
And it's not like there aren't enough regions to explore. The Pokemon world currently consists of nine regions alongside various subregions, the latest being Kitakami in The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero. And while Game Freak has yet to say yes or no regarding a second Legends game, it's hard not to believe they've got more historical tales within these regions to tell.
