A lot of people have mentioned some good stuff. I think they could also add:
NG+
Specific challenges with various restrictions/goals
Have the badges actually do something? Like you can wear one of them and it gives you some sort of bonus to the related type? I dunno...
They need to balance the types in the series. I keep seeing people saying this is a huge problem and though I don't play the games myself I also got that impression. It sounds like Fairy type is way too good atm.

As far as stories go, I've always thought it was weird that every single main-line game has the same exact premise. You're a trainer, go earn badges. Like... the series has so many characters in so many jobs; why not do a game where your goal is not to be a trainer, but to be like... a conservationist? You can still do the gyms and such, why not? but... why does that have to be the foundation of each game every time? I mean, I remember learning about pokemon for the very first time and being like "training seems like the most boring thing to do in that setting."
