personally i would like to see a pokemon game that 'follows' the story of pokemon i use the term follow loosly i basically just mean a game where u start in new bark town (i think thats right) and travel to all the areas that the pokemon seris did (and has any one else noticed that asides from pokemon yellow no other game has bothered to let people go to the orange league)
Actually as starting towns go for the games and then the series, since the series is very loosely based on the games:
It goes in order, region/city:
1.)Kanto/Pallet Town
2.)Johto/New Bark Town
3.)Hoenn/Littleroot Town
4.)Sinnoh/Twinleaf Town
5.)Unova/Nuvema Town.
Though, the show is really messed up. The only real fun thing about the show is counting how many times they screw up when it comes to comparing to the games.
The writers really don't know what they are doing. Take the intro-episode for Black and White, the narrator says that Ash is ten years old. I mean come on, he started out in the Kanto region when he was ten.
I know the show is for the kids, but do they expect people to believe that he traveled on foot on all the land of Kanto, Orange Islands, Johto, Hoenn, Kanto again(Battle Frontier), and Sinnoh, and competed in all the big tournaments in those areas(Each tournament implied to take place at a certain month, usually close to the end of the year), and that he did all that in less than a year.
If anything, Ash should be at least 16. Now his voice has changed over each of the region series, so that is some semblance of him aging, but with Black and White, they changed his voice and he looks a little shorter, so now he looks and sounds again like the whiny little kid that started out in Kanto all those "years" back.
I remember a review of the show by some guy, who pointed out how Ash seems not to age all that much during the years of the show. I'm thinking more and more that the guy was right. He said something to the effect that when Ash got shocked by Pickachu in the very beginning of the show, it put him into a coma, and all the journeying that people have been watching are just Ash's fevered coma dreams.
