I agree on this. Or, at the very least, make the rival(s) more three-dimensional. Put in a character that hates you or something[/quote]

Um, Gold Silver wasn't good enough for you?

He didn't like you.

At all.

And was pissed off that you were awesome and he was shit.


He actually grew though and understood pokemon.

Though he had stolen pokemon so he couldn't be league champion.

Sad days.

I want to be a Pokemon Hunter. There's Rangers, trainers, breeders; I want to mount a Charizard on my wall.

You sir, are a very agreeable person

He wasn't really a three dimensional character. And, while Silver is my favorite rival so far, he could still use some work. I mean, why does he steal a Pokemon in the first place? Why does he hate you for no apparent reason ('cause your awesome isn't a good reason)? Why is he such a douche? At least with Blue it's because he's the grandson of the leading professor of Pokemon; we don't know why Silver acts the way he does.

There are what.... Seventeen elemental types. I think they're as balanced as they're gonna get.

Though I still don't understand the difference between ground and rock.

Rock would be rock (obvs). Ground is more like dirt. Also straight-up rock pokemon are not immune to electric attacks; only the ground-element is.

An example of a ground-only pokemon would be Sandshrew. Clearly not rocky in any way, like Geodude or Onix (which incidentally are ground and rock), but still...

Agreed on all points, you said all of the things I've been saying for years along with some extra stuff. Now if only Gamefreak would pull their heads out of their asses and see that there is real money to be made here, but we know they'll just keep making the same thing over and over.

Also, I want Rock Smash to go die in a hole. Damn near useless in battle and only sometimes helpful outside of battle, the same can be said of Rock Climb.

 

[EBHughsThe1st]

I was thinking something with the battles of Pokemon Battle Revolution and a big open 3D world to explore. The pokemon could follow you around like in the new HeartGold and SoulSilver.

 

[Sinisterair]

There is a better version of pokemon than that, you play it in real life, using dogs.

Yeah, but when your beloved pooch gets "K.O.ed" and "faints" in real life, a quick stop at the nearest Poke Center doesn't always revive them...

Also I've been jabbing mine with just about every kind of rock I can find and it still won't evolve...

DONT JAB UR DOG WITH ROCKS!!!!! u gotta huck it at him hard enough for him to make a noise....then u hear hun hu hun hu hun hu! ur dog evolved! to angel dog!

 

[Sinisterair]

OT: I want a lawnmower.
Or something like a permanent Repel.
That can be turned off.

There is nothing more annoying than when almost all of your pokemon are dead, and you're trying to get to the nearest PokeCenter, then BAM!
Random encounter

You mean like maybe we can actually SEE the pokemon in the grass? and how about we do like they do in the show, where there are pokecenters in every plains, woods, and any other odd ass place.

U ever notice how in the first season AKA the real pokemon, the only pokemon centers were like a 2hr tripp because ash couldnt fight for shit at the right times, he always stumbled apon them in the most remote locations and the people seemed surprised when nobody was ever there, and when there was one in a town it was always like 3 towns over.

Rock would be rock (obvs). Ground is more like dirt. Also straight-up rock pokemon are not immune to electric attacks; only the ground-element is

But dirt is made from the erosion of rock and minerals with a mix of organic matter...

HOW COME THE POLICE DONT STOP THE ROCKET!>!?

Pokemon continents are based off of Japanese provinces, right? And Japanese police departments have a reputation for being incompetent, right? Put two and two together, I guess...

How to make a good Pokeymanns game:
Make it so level grinding is not a straight path to victory.
Continue with the gold/silver expansion pack motif (Each game has the previous games areas and pokeymanns.)

-Balance Elemental Weaknesses
They're already balanced. Your issue comes more from stats rather than from elemental modifiers. Besides, some Pokemon can survival one Super-Effective hit if their corresponding defense stat is high enough (or, in the case of Blissey and other tanks, HP).

Thank you. There are so many people who don't understand that.

My Blissey can take three Close Combats and skip away with a smile on her face. You just need more ATK...

The ability to catch Evees in the wild no matter what continent. Seriously, unless it's the first generation games that is one of the HARDEST to get your damn hands on . . . sure the roster is up past about 500 now but still . . . I find tons of Pikachus after the national Dex, but the ONLY way to get an Evee is to go to a special garden at a mansion, and try again and again each day to talk to the man that owns it untill he FINALLY decides he saw an Evee and then go catch the ONLY ONE there, and try again and again to get him to ONCE MORE say Evee and go catch the one.

There's NO reason for this. If the rest of the 500 some odd are available out in you know . . . the huge WORLD you made for this game, why not that one? it would make sense if it was something no one really paid attention to like odditch. But not Evee . . . it's powerful, it's awesome and it has SO MANY EVOLUTIONS all of which are amazing. I've had to put in the work of something akin to 20 hours to make sure I have enough Evees to actually get a collection together. (oh yeah, that garden . . . when he fianlly says whatever pokemon you want, it's a SMALL chance to find it, but better then 0, so isntead of 0 it's like a .023444 chance or some absurd number)

Um... when a wild Pokemon attacks I want to be able to use my hunting license and put one in between its eyes and I wouldn't care if some of them were endangered, Big Game Hunter: Pokemon Edition all the way!

 

[zHellas]

Quite a big snip!

Basically all the ideas you've made but in a MMORPG format. Leagues can be like top players in that frontier and it can be noted whether or not you've arrived from another region.

Even if they never use it for competition purposes, people who play the Pokemon games should at least look at what makes the metagame so complex...Hell, even those who don't play it. It'd shut them up about how "Ooh, the pokemon gaemz never change w/ ea. genration, theyre kiling the industry!!"

 

[chozo_hybrid]

Pokemon sells like hot cakes, why don't they just make an MMO somehow and then you'd be able to face other people all the time and such. Expansions for new places and Pokemon, you'd have a winner there.

 

[amphibians]

I heart this thread, madly.
I'd love for a PC based Pokemon RPG that isn't an amature java production.
Oh and
I hate the layouts of the towns on Pokemon. 4 or 6 buildings spread out and surrounded
by a hedge perimeter to stop you going where you shouldn't?
Ugh, Irritates me like hell.

After Heart Gold/Soul Silvers European release, I hope they'll take in the damn ideas in this thread >:

 

[Zmann966]

One acronym for the Ultimate Pokemon game:
MMO

It could be a 2D isometric like they all have been now...
But give me my MMO.

Ask and you shall receive.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Pokemon MMO. You telling me that wouldn't outsell WoW?

EDIT: Wow. Double ninja'd. Damn.
