One strange feature I wanted was the ability to have your own battle music. Like, reading from a SD card. However, you have to get the item that does so. What should it be called? PokeMusic? Hm. Maybe you could get it around the 2nd or 3rd gym. However, you can't change tracks until you've heard them in their plain form. Or you can get "cards" that unlock each track so that it can be changed. It's a key item and should be registered, for quick changing during the go, and can only be used outside of battle. So once a song is playing and you go into battle, you're stuck with it.
With more and more likeliness that the "3ds" will have more ram, it should be able to handle it. What do you think?
Customizable trainers? I don't want to be stuck with the same list of four generic characters for each game. You could even purchase clothes from the big Department Store in the city. Sort of like Pokemon Battle Revolution where you could unlock different outfits and buy them later.

I wanna paint my Pokemon.
And there should also be an epic cave with crystals in it or... Something. Something that looks absolutely astonishing. <3 And of course, a new crystal Pokemon would be in it. Has there been a crystal Pokemon before? ![]() |

Some features i want,
-Customizable trainers
-Pokemon running behind you
-The return of the pokewalker!
-The ability to use the touch screen to run (because sometime my left hand needs to scratch my leg or head)
-The ability to go to every region of the pokemon world. Yes. 40 badges. (Anyone up to fighting a level 90 Nidoking from Kanto?)
-The ability to get every legendary in the game. (Every one from the birds, to the god itself - Arceus)
-The ability to find every pokemon that isn't a legendary in the wild.
...Looking at my suggestions, one might think that the game, if all my suggestions were in the game, must be a gigantic game. Two-cartridge game maybe?

1) Might happen
2) Might happen 3) 100% not gonna happen <----- What is this? It does not seem that unlikely! Nintendo would make a lot of money sellling Pokewalkers again! 4) Might happen 5) Seems very unlikely to me 6) Seems very unlikely to me 7) Seems very unlikely to me |
|
I for one would like a PBR-esque thing where you could connect to Wifi and battle random trainers! ^_^

I DEFINITELY AGREE with the person who said customizable characters.
I'd like to be able to change the hair style/ colour or whatever and buy clothes ![]()
THAT'D BE SO COOL
There could be like a fashion competition or something kind of like Pokemon contests but for the trainers instead
Compare fashion/ outfit combinations for prizes ;D
Hahaha.
Here we go! ![]()
I want to be able to grow older based on your time (ie, 10 hours, kid 35 hours teen 50 hours adult, or something) that would be pretty cool. Something along the lines of this, which aren't exactly features..
I would like stronger gyms. I would like a variety of pokemon to catch in the beginning of the game (Before first gym). But most of all, I want to be able to go to the Crystal Onix event!! I have wanted to do that since I saw the episode.
|
I want to see a Key Item, like the GB Player in HG/SS, that changes the graphics back to Gameboy/Color games.

-The ability to jump and walk diagonally.
-A cat based starter Pokemon.
-Random, ranked wi-fi battling.
-Ability to turn wi-fi on any time during the game and have online friends ask to battle you.
-Reverse GTS searching eg search who is looking for a Pokemon you have.
-The ability to surf on your actual Pokemon instead of a blob thing, same with flying.
-Slightly increased chances of getting a shiny...

-The ability to jump and walk diagonally. (Excluding Jumping, it would just be Earthbound in Pokemon form)
-A cat based starter Pokemon. (As long as its Fire, Water, or Grass, I don't really care) -Random, ranked wi-fi battling. (Meh. Too many hackers) -Ability to turn wi-fi on any time during the game and have online friends ask to battle you. (That is actually a good idea!) -Reverse GTS searching eg search who is looking for a Pokemon you have. (It would definitely make things simpler, wouldn't it?) -The ability to surf on your actual Pokemon instead of a blob thing, same with flying. (Hackers. It would be a bad idea due to the ability for hackers to make a Sneasel know surf. And then the game crashes because there is no surf sprite for Sneasel) -Slightly increased chances of getting a shiny... (But then it wouldn't be as exciting get shinys! That's why shiny Pokemon are so rare! For the fun of finding something super rare!) |
|
Umm... crap.
FINE! The game would crash if you ride a Treecko with Surf. Happy? And sorry for not knowing sneasel could learn an HM it shouldn't use! |
|
Only problem would be not everyone in the world that plays pokemon know the standard rules of competitive battling.
|
|
Not trying to sound rude, but maybe that's because some of us just couldn't care less. I didn't re-join the Pokemon fandom after a five year sojourn to reduce my favorite Pokemon to a chart of stats and probabilities. I play the game to have fun, not for the whole EV training and tiers system. If I get left behind the curve, that's fine by me. I'll still have fun doing it my way, and I can't help but wonder if people are still really enjoying their games by killing Magikarp for the 10,000th time for a few Speed EVs.

Rant = failed. .-. But I stand by what I say. If you don't understand what someone saying, don't jump to conclusions and start insulting them for there view points. Seriously, why did you think he'd be upset because people don't EV? There just easier wins for him.
|
|
I wasn't attempting to insult anyone. The reason I said that at all is because, in all honesty, I've been looking for an excuse to say that somewhere on the forum and used a jumping off point that was, admittedly, misconstrued, if only slightly.
I really don't like the idea of the entire competetive battling system. Sleep clauses, legendary clauses, EV training, tiers, all those rules that people set up really just detract from the experience that is Pokemon, at least for me. I was just spouting off the parts of the system that I could think of at the time (EV training and tiers), but I'm really put off by the whole concept of competitive battling. The name itself outlines my meaning: competitive battling. A competition. Not something fun to be enjoyed simply for the heck of it. I'm not saying I hate those of you who play the meta game, and I will never insult anyone who does. If that's what it seemed like, then I sincerely apologize. 'Twas not my intent. i'm just saying I hate the meta game itself. I play Pokemon just to have fun battling my way, and I don't like that people made these conventions of what makes a 'good' battler vs. a 'bad' one. In all honesty I probably should have just started my own thread about it, and I probably will. I suppose I didn't think of it at the time (a flaw of mine. Hindsight is still legally blind). As for your note on hacks and cheats, I hate those, too (though if you think about it, that has almost nothing to do with competetive battling and more to do with losers who will go to whatever exent to win, even by breaking the rules established by the game). However, as I said I apologize for any feelings hurt. I will move this whole bit of mine to my own topic where it will actually relevant. Let's get back to the actual topic, shall we? |
I got an idea by watching a video of a Pokemon being traded to evolve... It would be cool if there was some kind of item in this game that allows Pokemon to evolve that only evolve in trades, it would be useful for the people who don't have Wi-Fi/another DS and so people won't lose the Pokemon's happiness.
|
Good job misinterpreting what he said~! It ain't about EVs. Hes talking about people going on there with UBERS breaking sleep clauses, hacking, and being generally cheap just to win. Make sure you know what hes talking about before you jump to conclusion that hes upset that other people don't EV.
|
|
Oh? but It is relevant. He wants a function to battle random people online, and is addressing the rules that should go with the function~! =w=
I kinda want it too. But if it did happen voice chat should be disabled. =w= |

[QUOTE=Sunny;47380]Oh? but It is relevant. QUOTE]
I was referring to him quoting you, thereby referrencing back to the whole discussion we'd had. That didn't seem necessary because it was only pointing back to something off-topic that quite frankly I've already regretted posting.
But yes, a more sound system for battling random people would be a lot of fun. I agree that the clauses can make battles seem more fair (I think I've decided that what I don't like about the competetive battles are really the tiers, saying that one Pokemon is better than the other. Stats have nothing to do with it; if you're clever, any Pokemon can be nearly unstoppable. Case in point: the 'Never Use' Regigigas: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ek28dP7rgHA). I like the system they used in stadium, and it would be great to see them made Clause Rules into a standard for their battling games (Clause Rules is a term I coined (I think) which means settings which make the clauses into unbreakable rules in the game)
Actually, you CAN'T deny a pokemon does something much better then others
For example. Due to snorlaxes stat arrangement, lickilicky is incredibility outclassed as a curse sweeper and an exploder. HOWEVER, He does something snorlax can't do. Cleric. Aromatherapy and wish make lickilicky a good team player. But sadly hes beaten as a cleric by the likes of blissey and her godly walling stats. The tiers state every single pokemons strength but you still can't deny one does something better then the other, when the stats, abilitys and movepool are all there. The tiers are there not there to belittle the UU or NU pokemon, but too keep them to be used against other pokemon they have a fairer chance against.
Also regigigas with skill swap is an illegal combo. This is a random wifi match so they can get away with it. Even at that regigigas needed a whole team to support him while other sweepers can sweep on there own. His opponent was also an uber using nub caek that didn't know much about battling while the regigigas player is pro NU user.
There are certain combos not allowed in competetive play, because of how incredibily broken they are. There very rare. The only other one I know thats illegal for being broken is Azumarill with belly drum + aqua jet. It can 1HKO anything that doesn't resist it and always goes first. Even if a pokemon does resist it, it must be bulky.
Also wish and baton pass. I don't get why thats illegal though. o3o

Oh~! thats something I wanna see in next gen.
Spinda evolution~! If it doesn't get one it'll be like the new farfetch'd :< Spindas kinda grew on me after playing pokemon mystery dungeon explorers of sky. =w= |
Just to clarify quickly (I'm a stickler for details) Drifloon was the one who used Skill Swap since it was a double battle.
A Spinda evolution sounds like it'd be awesome, but I can't see whatever was posted because of the stupid school computer. Grr...Maybe Shuckle could get some love too? I think a Shuckle evolution would be beastly. I know the thing's already a tank when it comes to defense, but for some reason the idea just sounds cool to me.
Why can't Nintendo have all the cool ideas we do? (or use them at least)
Random going back to main topic purpose... ;P
I'm still waiting for the game where they let you customize your main trainer character a little. I'd like to not have to deal with an underground with everyone as the same sprite, it's difficult to find certain people in flag stealing sessions. >x>;
That, and it would be highly preferable if I could actually connect with the main character a little better than, "This is your mom, this is your dad, and here's you and what you look like, you who want to be the champion." For a game like this, it seems sad that we can't customize a little for our huge enormous, unique journey.
^This.
Except I don't use underground.
I say we should be able to have the ability to beat the game without becoming champion.
Maybe have the ability to start the game with options. Demonstration:
"What do you want to be?"
-Team Rocket Leader
-Pokemon Champion
-World Famous Researcher.
Stuff like that... except Team rocket wont be in the 5th Gen.
I would like to see you start in the main city (like Saffron or Goldenrod) instead of a remote town on the outskirts of your region. Then more options for what to do like Quadcenturo said. Character customization is always great, but probably not going to see much of that (seeing as the characters are already set and all.)
Because there are more options, the gyms should be a little closer in levels, the weakest at about upper thirties and the strongest, upper forties.
Then, sorta like the G/S or R/B/G remakes for the previous two generations, make a Pokemon world. In it, the trainer would be able to revisit all of the regions, beginning with a choice between two, depending on the version they get and moving through to the others.
For example, one version you could start in Kanto or Johto; in the other, Hoenn or Sinnoh. After doing whatever is decided that they need to do in the first region, they move on to the next, possibly even 'accidently' losing their party Pokemon in the sea or to a team (pick your own team name and place it here) member. Naturally, you can get them back later, if you so choose.
Okay, that's enough for now, Don't want to take up too much time. I will probably make a new thread somewhere else instead of ranting on in here.

I would REALLY like to see an EV monitoring/checking system implemented. Everyone knows about em by now, why have people use a calculator still? Also, a PERMANENT notepad that remembers what you write on it would be nice. I'd certainly love to see a better story and ONE Fire/Dragon pokemon. Come ON, did we need more 4x ice weakness Dragons? Ditch the flying and ground combo and just add a classical firebreather!

@ LoPun The one in 4th gen looks awesome. Although pink...
I wonder what moves like Rock Slide and Earthquake'll look like with the panning camera. Oh, and IDK if I mentioned it earlier, but rain, sun, stealth rocks still playing the whole battle instead of every other turn would look awesome.
@ TRT: And congrats to myself for fully filling my activity bar. ![]()
This is just a random thought I came up with, but I'd like to see there actually be a point to getting your Pokemon to Lv. 100 aside from the stats. In competetive battles your Pokemon are autoleveled anyway, and your EV would reach the max limit before you reach 100. It'd be nice to see you get something for actually reaching that milestone. Maybe some kind of really awesome move, or something like that?

Well, that would be incredibly hard and annoying. Who would want to beat the elite 4 a thousand times just to get one move?
I would say that it wouldn't really be worth grinding to level 100 for a special move gift. |
