Pokemon --- What it lacks...What does it need?

[Zephirius]

1. A genocide against every race of Pokemon beyond 151.

I'll be damned before I let you or Nintendo touch my Luxray.

I challenge you, to a game of Pokemon. I'll use my Alakazam, Charizard, Golem, Hitmonchan, Pikachu, and Polywhirl, and you use your new-gen Pokemon.

I will fucking awesomely destroy you.

I didn't mind the second set of Pokemon they added after the original 150, but it was the 6,000 after the 2nd set that I hated.
But yeah, use the DS's wifi to let you and seven other people run around the region... at the same time. You could have sapient rivals instead of Gary, it'd be amazing.

pokemon needs nothing. its the mario bros of the 90's and evry1 will look back to the firsts and say, those were the days.

 

[KamachoMcSagget]

2 and 3 sound good, but 1 kinda takes away the "old school" feeling. It sure DOESN'T need anymore pokemon. It has like over 400 now, right? That means I will never catch them all!!... especially with everyone online wanting a legendary pokemon when all i want is a munchlax.

1. 3D
2. On the Wii
3. MMO
4. ?????
5. Profit

 

[Weidleface]

I've been saying for a long time that a Pokemon MMO is what we need. Make your own character, pick the region you want to start in, pick a starter and head off. You could battle in preset gyms to advance in the game and pick fights with other trainers you encounter as well.

To realize that an entire generation has grown up with it and it needs to maybe think about including more things for those of use who have, such as older characters to choose from.

 

[asinann]

The ability to get a gun and actually HUNT pokemon.

 

[GehttoGamer]

i can understand the hate for the new pokemans but we cant kill them thier thier now just for the love of all that is holy !NO MORE NEW POKEMANS! but i really like everyones suggestions here really even the let your pokemans wear something.

A pokemans MMO WOULD BE EPIC! i can see me and my arcanine going places and diving with my blastoise oh and NO MORE STUPID HM's that are useless! im tire of switching to slave pokemans to cut that bush blocking my way.

1. 3D

2. MMO - trading/breeding/etc/etc

3. Seperate the red/blue - gold/silver - ruby/sapphire - diamond/pearl into continents/campaigns (increases longevity)

4. 450 (approax) is probably enough

5. online competitive. (1v1, 2v2, other competitive)

6. not so much the real time combat, but somewhat of a blend between, otherwise the turn based concept keeps the game to being more stategic.

7. other interesting pve elements would be good.

basically similiar to Guild wars in a sense, but don't let PvP go to hell....

 

[Caimekaze]

it needs some fucking innovation. the franchise litterally hasn't changed its gameplay one bit since red/blue, even the graphics look virtually the same and its been a long time (3D my ass).

but I guess thats the nintendo way these days...

See, you say that, but you're wrong. The gameplay has changed, a lot. But you'd need to care for it to be worth going in to.

Here is the game I have thought of for about 7 years.

Spoiler

It should be a first person platformer.
Any Pokemon chosen for battle are controlled in first person, with real-time strategy.
Your main character has stats as well.
Pokemon require sleep and food as well as your character.
Stores are not all open 24/7
Officer Jenny DOES make an appearance.
If you have a flying Pokemon, it can fly and divebomb the enemy.
All attacks are learned through training or as custom crafted moves, not by leveling up.
Leveling up only increases stats.
Buttons are assigned to attacks in the Pokemon's stats menu.
Combos are possible.
The Start button (for PS systems) will give you the option of recalling the Pokemon, using items and/or leaving the fight.
There will be an actual bartering system, not a mysterious reason for receiving money after battles.
If you lose a battle, you don't faint like a little sissy. You pay up and walk away.
For 2v2 battles, you can play split-screen with a friend, or set an AI for the other Pokemon.
If you have an AI Pokemon, you can set a list of orders; go here, shoot here, eat pie here, ect...
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY: If you find a Pokemon in the wild, you can avoid it, run from it or attack it (as you send out Pokemon with a button)

 

[ArcadianTrance]

I am and always will be a firm believer thier are only 151 pokemon (If you count Mewtwo) but if they are going to continue insisting that there are more they should at least put [b/]all[/b] of them new and old in, seriously, when was the last time I caught a Beedrill or whatever it's called.

Add the have all pokemon thing I said and I will buy it...Twice even, just to be sure it profits that much more.

the thing about the first pokemon like red and blue was that they were simple. plain and simple. no like eight compartments in the item bag and no animation for the pokemon. and the attacks were played out over elaborately. and there werent 900 pokemon just 150. it just had a certain swagger to it. its indescribable

I actually like the compartments, in red/blue the item bag would fill up quite quickly, at least it did for me. The compartments prevent this.

I dunno, I love Pokemon but at the same time I'm kind of over it in a sense, you know? Diamond really didn't do it for me, and not because of the belief that all new Pokemon suck (some of them are ridiculous, but not all). There was just something about it that didn't make me want to play it like the previous games did. Maybe it was the fact that the starters were lame as hell. I mean come on, a fire monkey? That's just stupid.

Like I said, I love Pokemon but I wouldn't be devastated if another game never came out. They're beating a dead horse at this point.

Heck, I was even thinking of sending it in as an idea. I saw my cousin playing a Pokemon game on his Gamecube like 7 years ago and got the idea. And it would be with only the original 151 Pokemon...plus Pichu, because they are so damn cute.

 

[EdwinMDA]

less pokemon
some 3d
more variety on the trainer
possibly make it so that the trainner can fight along side his pokemon with a wepon

 

[Kstreitenfeld]

1. Stop making new pokemon
