Tactics Battle System Updates - Essentials V21

After my recent post showcasing my Tactics Battle System, work on it has improved massively.

I intend to drop a demo of my game, Pokemon Luxor, that uses this battle system soon (in about 2-3 weeks!)

I’ve spent a lot of my time making the story and maps alongside various new special mechanics exclusive to Gym battles to make them more interesting. I’m also currently working on Mega Evolution and am making custom Mega’s for the various Fakemon in the game.

Should a game that drastically changes mechanics also include Fakemon?

I’m currently working on a game that scraps the old turn based battle system for a completely new tactics grid-based Fire Emblem battle system made in Pokemon Essentials (See my recent post for screenshots).

I’m debating whether or not to include Fakemon in the game but I’m currently opting not too as I feel like having a completely new battle system AND Fakemon will make it too complex/difficult to learn.

Which option would you say is better:
A) Official Pokemon only, NO Fakemon
B) Official Pokemon + New Regional Forms
C) Official Pokemon + New Regional Forms + A small number of original Fakemon
D) A significant ammount of completely new Fakemon
E) Official Pokemon + New Evolutions for existing weaker Pokemon
