PGO Features - Ideas

Here's a real image I cooked up, I feel like pokemon go could be so much more in the overworld, it's really boring most of the time.

1. You can see your partner walking (floating...) beside you
2. Nearby players can be seen. Strangers will be transparent, while friends will be solid. People who choose to opt for privacy can either have their username hidden or can be grayed out.
3. Pokemon Centers. These would be less common than gyms. Offer free healing to all your pokemon once a day, plus act as a pokestop. Potentially a place to purchase equipment at a slightly cheaper price.
4. Nearby pokemon which you can't see in your circle will appear as a small ominous cloud, thus allowing you to at least sense where *other* nearby pokemon are at least located, making searching easier.
5. Legendary/Rare pokemon have the ability to roam the land, you'll have to be lucky and quick enough to tap on them in order to engage them into a battle/catch phase.
6. You can send and receive PvP battle requests from nearby people.
7. You can see notifications from people who need help in raids or gym battling. Various information could be displayed.
8. Footsteps

What do you think? Thoughts, suggestions? I could make further UI pages.
