Pokemon Sun and Moon?

[TomGuycott]

-greatest idea ever-

But allow me to offer another spin on it:

-Sun version has you follow the son/ daughter of Red, and the ultimate post-main game goal is to beat Blue in a highly public, widely televised event. The idea could be a subtle throwback to how supposedly Professor Oak was to be a powerful adversary in the original games (as I recall data exists with him having Pokemon superior to the champion level Pokemon).

-Moon version would basically be as you described meeting Red for a final battle, but you'd be Blue's kids instead (or even still red's, I don't know whether that would make a difference to anyone). The final battle is more somber and introspective, a one on one match in the middle of nowhere.

Extra tidbits to the idea: Sun's final battle would be on a sunny day , and Moon's on a moonlit night.

Also: to keep people of different versions from feeling snubbed, both Red and Blue could have post-post game super-powered battles available in both versions.
