Before anyone says "Oh no you are taking away my beloved classic anime!" No I am not advocating for the series with Ash and Pikachu to be scrapped.
Instead I would like see them make either an adaptation of the Manga series Pokemon Adventures or one that is more Video Game oriented for instance Black and White would face Team Plasma on Route 3 by the Day Care center like they did in the game whereas Ash and Co just dealt with a Trash Bag and a bunch of rowdy kids on Route 3.
The reason I was thinking about this is I constantly hear rumblings of people upset over how they reset Ash and Pikachu over and over(and started reading the manga) that may be good for new fans, but for older fans that may alienate them. Whereas if we had a adaptation based off the Manga or Video Game it would closely parallel those stories and the cast would change from Saga to Saga giving it a more fresh feel, but it wouldn't completely lose the older cast since like the Manga or Games some make appearances in the newer manga/games. This may drawn in new fans that stick to the manga or video game, lure in the current fans of the main series, and get some of the older fans back in that got tried of the direction the main series has been taking the last couple Sagas.
But it may be to late or might not be successful? Yeah it maybe to late but I'd love too see something new outside of the same ole series we have been seeing for the last 14 years. I would have loved for them to make a series out of Jimmy and the crew he had with him during the Raikou episodes in Pokemon Chronicles but that never happened. And if it turned out any where near as successful as Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood(which was a closer adaptation to the Manga then the original series), then an adaptation of either the manga or game would be another cash cow for Pokemon Co.
