What if this time there would be also a good guys team player could actually join- like sort of band of heroes protecting the region from bad guys. I dunno just an idea.

Yeah, having the International Police(or any police force for the matter) more involved in the main game instead of just in the post-game would be interesting. The only game that has somewhat tried that is Platinum and I think that worked well. And as much as I like Looker I would like to see some more members too, because right now he is more like a one man army.I've always wondered about the absence of the police force in these games...

It could go either way in my opinion. If they worked similarly to Looker in the Looker Bureau quest I don't think it would be a problem. As in them doing most of the research but then they send you to do the investigation and sometimes join in themselves later. As long as the player gets to beat the villains in battles it wouldn't take too much away from them.In this new game would you think it more plausible for the police force to be an aid to you (like double battling with them for example), a weak presence that you clean up after/have to deal with, or for the purpose of advancing/strengthening the plot with no real presence in gameplay? Because I agree, but unfortunately I don't see them making the police force seem strong and competent because it would take away from the player being the main protagonist against the evil team.
Related Side note, with new release pictures, we've seen fire trucks. I could see them adding a police force thing too
I feel like the reason why there is barely any police force is because generally, major bad things don't happen often. Of course there is a villain team in each region, but how often do they occur? And when they do occur, how long do they last? Usually some kid manages to defeat the evil team.
A sheriff or a security guard seems like the extent of the Pokemon world having a police force. Though I remember in previous games there were some trainers that were night police guards or something like that.
Would be nice to have the police force to be the actual villains.

I would like a female-led team that succeeds in pulling off their evil plan.

Everybody. This. I laughed so hard just now.
He runs an empire of building hotels like the one we saw in the trailer. Then one day, he decides to become Champion even though he has no experience battling Pokémon. He keeps saying he'll become Champion and fix all of the region's problems. "The region has problems. It does. It has problems. This I can tell you. Will I fix the problems? I'm working on a plan to fix the problems. The region does have problems that I will fix." People are amazed by his words and amazing spray-tan. Trump is the evil leader and the box legend for Sun. He looks like he's been roasting in it and he thinks everything revolves around him.

Or, to be employed by the villain team leader. I wouldn't say no to corruption.
]Sol (pronounced like the English word “soul”; Old Norse Sól, “Sun”) and Mani (pronounced “MAH-nee”; Old Norse Máni, “Moon”), are, as their names suggest, the divine animating forces of the sun and the moon, respectively.
Sol and Mani form a brother and sister pair. When they first emerged as the cosmos was being created, they didn’t know what their powers were or what their role was in the new world. Then the gods met together and created the different parts of the day and year and the phases of the moon so that Sol and Mani would know where they fit into the great scheme of things.
They ride through the sky on horse-drawn chariots. The horses who pull Mani’s chariot are never named, but Sol’s horses are apparently named Árvakr (“Early Riser”) and Alsviðr (“Swift”). They ride “swiftly” because they’re pursued through the sky by the wolves Skoll (“Mockery”) and Hati (“Hate”), who overtake them when the cosmos descends back into chaos during Ragnarok.
According to one of the poems in the Poetic Edda, a figure named Svalinn rides in the sun’s chariot and holds a shield between her and the earth below. If he didn’t do this, both the land and the sea would be consumed in flames. Elsewhere, the father of Sol and Mani is named as “Mundilfari,” about whom we know nothing. His name might mean “The One Who Moves According to Particular Times.”
The medieval Icelandic historian Snorri Sturluson, whose Prose Edda can’t be taken at face value but nevertheless is in most low-quality introductory books on Norse mythology, tries to compile these disparate references into a comprehensive narrative that’s utterly ridiculous and useless as a source of information: Mundilfari had two children who were so beautiful that he called the girl “Sol” after the sun and the boy “Mani” after the moon. Sun married a man called Glenr (“Opening in the Clouds”). The sun, which had originated as a spark in Muspelheim, was pulled through the sky in a chariot, but the chariot had no driver. The gods were outraged by Mundilfari’s arrogance in the names he chose for his children, so they forced Sol to drive the sun’s chariot.
The conception of the sun and the moon riding on chariots through the sky is evidently a very old one among the Norse and other Germanic peoples. It can be found on rock carvings and other Scandinavian artifacts from the Bronze Age, perhaps the most notable of which is the Trundholm sun chariot . The idea that the sun deity was female, and with a name that means simply “Sun,” is also attested among the continental Germanic peoples.
I doubt they would put even an allegory to Nazism in Pokemon games.In XY, in Anistar, an NPC mentions that a team appeared a few years ago, which was not Flare, asking about the tree in which Xerneas/Yveltal had concealed themselves in. Many people draw references to Nazism with Team Flare, and if that's the case, then Flare could be a side-team sent to attack Kalos (France) in preparation for something greater.
I think you are overthinking this a tad. I mean, look at how many impractical hair colors you have (Green for example).Furthermore, the red hair gene is almost as common in Germany as it is in England, and every Flare member - other than those four girls who are easily the most forgettable execs we've ever had - has red hair. Even Malva.

I first thought next gen would be based on UK but then when I saw so many cars in that concept art I kinda figured out it would probably be Germany/Center Europe most likely- logical continuation of Kalos/France really. Also a chance to get dual region like in gen2I've long been on the side that this would be a Hawaii based region, but now I'm starting to lean towards Germany.
