Pokemon could be amazing

[thegrandtaco]

i really enjoy the pokemon games but i think they can be so much better.
for me the apps thing you get out it is just a waste of space. they can be useing the touch pad for a better use. the max number of app pages should be 4 but preferably 3.
1. keep the time, hot key buttons (for items such as fishing pools), button to get your bag quicker
2.that item finder thing is pretty cool
3. a touch map (still shows berry loactions). but like a gps in real time.
and make it quicker to cycle through them all.

also the cycling of pokemon..why do you need to have a deposit and a withdraw thing in the computer. combine the two and just make use of the touch screen and make it a drag and drop for changing pokemon.

i for one dont understand making your pokemon look cool, or smooth or whatever. i dont want to do a beauty contest to fight a gym leader.

i would like to know how you think pokemon can improve on itself.

You can do that already..it's called the 'Move Pokemon' option on the computer. It allows you to drag and drop pokemon and swap them out in specific orders if you like.

wow they do have it lol. but i still think it should use the stylus to switch pokemon.
but seriously why have the deposit and withdraw if they have the move pokemon thing?

To me, Pokemon was amazing. I loved the Red and Blue versions, and to me the Yellow version, while good, was just a cash-in on the television series. Pokemon Blue was my "killer app" for the Game Boy.

But after that, things began to go sour in the land of Kanto...

The prequel trilogy of Star Wars introduced medichlorians as a way to tangeably explain the Force. That alone killed Star Wars for a lot of fans.

In the beginning days of the Game Boy Color, a new line of Pokemon games came out: Gold, Silver, and Crystal. That was the Pokemon equivalent to medichlorians for me. Creating a new setting, and adding in a lot more monsters, and then having you re-deux the Red/Blue story and playing in that map after doing the other story line and earning badges...it all jsut became too much for me when I bought my Game Boy Advance with Pokemon Crystal packed-in. I love Red and Blue, but after completing Crystal...it just wasn't fun anymore.

Yeah pokemon could be improved in a number of ways. The Apps you were talking about make sense. The only reason I can think of for the contest is that its something to do after you have beaten everybody or you just want to take a break. Or the ever popular Ribbon whores that want their pokemon showered with appreciation.

I still have my own idea that there should be a game where you start in Kanto then move onto Johto, Hoenn and finally Sinnoh and call it Pokemon Legends or something similar. That would be quite epic at least to me.

I'm still waiting for my 3D pokemon adventure in the vain of the original games...

How did you not like the G/S/C series? I understand that you are entitled to your opinion, but the G/S/C series was the best trio so far. It was when the new pokemon they added weren't so silly and it had, IMO, the best story of any of the games. It's not like the later two Gens where you ended up saving the world through the power of friendship and love.
The only thing you really saved was a few cities from the remnants of Team Rocket. Hell, you didn't even have to fight any Legendary pokemon if you didn't want to. They were just an extra challenge set for you.
It was also the only series that showed shades of grey in the characters. Some of the Team Rocket members you could connect with, because all they wanted to do was be reunited with their boss. And as for your rival, you watched him grow from a pompous self-entitled brat to a more mature and tolerable. It had the most character and plot development of any Pokemon game, and not only that, it had the best Starters too.

Unlike in Sinnoh, where he's bad to the bone all the way and then: "Pokemon will never end, BEN, that's what I mean"

Pokemon has been following the same game formula it has for as long as I can remember. And unless sales go down, they will keep doing it over and over. Pokemon will never die, the TV show has to have at least five hundred episodes now.

I think pokemon could be cool if they turn it into some kind of MMO for the Wii where you can play as a pokemon itself.
