Although Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth's Sujimon is a parody of Pokemon, the game's battle mechanics could inspire future Pokemon Gen 5 remakes.

While the Sujimon League side mission in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is clearly a parody of the Pokemon series, it's surprisingly complex for being secondary to the game's main plot. The mechanics of Sujimon battles follow a similar rock-paper-scissors-like elemental type-trumping system, but battles are 3v3 and Sujimon can hit multiple targets depending on their position, which can be changed once per turn. These mechanics make Sujimon battles in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth the perfect inspiration for potential Pokemon Gen 5 remakes to draw from.
