If I Made a Pokemon Game

NO MORE NEW POKEMON!!!
-The ~450 Pokemon are more than enough!

New Item: Tent
-Rest and heal your Pokemon (But only once a day)

New Item: Laptop
-Access the Box system everywhere

New Function: More rl-like stuff
-If a Pokemon eats a berry, you get Leftovers
-You can buy bigger bags
-Some things can break (watering can, bike, bag, fishing rod)

New function: Save in battles
-It's annoying if you have a perfect fight against a strong trainer by luck and your batteries are running low on energy

New/Redone Function: Train/Bus/Boat/Plane
-Takes you to a few citys for money
-Alternative to HM Fly
-Sometimey you can find some items

Redone: More/Random trading offers
-Makes it easier to fill the Pokedex without having underpowered Pokemon

I don't care if they add more pokemon, it gives me more selection and more to do, so I'm fine with that.

I'd like more online play, maybe some simple idle animations? I don't know, that would probably be asking a bit much.

What's wrong with adding more variety?

this is an okay idea

would make the game too easymodo

wait eating ONE berry gives you leftovers how

also more rl stuff wouldn't be a great idea for a video game

again, too easymodo and you can just put your ds in sleep mode

what's the point once you have fly

what does this even mean

better battle system (like Crazy70 and I are planning).
You should be able to dodge, do combos and attack more then once a turn (you have to charge up, of course). Also, make them have a fainted sprite, and maybe an attack sprite. An idle pose that loops instead of just one image would make it more enjoyable too.

best served for a spinoff really

unnecessary complexity

let's remove any sense of customization and individuality while we're at it

>pokemon
>complex
holy ****, dude.

it's apparently not complex to grind on something for hours on end after you've reached the level cap.

complexity =/= tediousness

um...

what

EVs only work if you're still leveling up, they add their stat boosts when you level up.

what the hell

how do people ever hope to get perfect evs without using pokesav

EVs are not hard to get at all

EVs and IVs aren't really complex as they are annoying to manage
especially because they're hidden values

so yeah revamping that crap would be cool

...how the hell do you **** up EV spreads.

im missing something here and i'm not going to read the long ass serebii article to find out.

YOU KILL THINGS YOU GET EVS

EVERY POKEMON GIVES A DIFFERENT EV
MACHOP HAS ATTACK EVS
ABRA HAS SPECIAL ATTACK EVS

4 EVS = 1 EXTRA STAT POINT

i knew this much.

what i meant was if EVs are stacked in between levels and applied on level-ups, isn't it nearly impossible to get them while playing through the game?

unless you don't start making a team until after you beat it.

Lol if you level up on lv5 shinx and under level 5 starly for a few hours starting the game maybe or other random pokemon that add different EVs depending on what you're after.

Or if you wait until you complete the game or get to the point where there is macho brace, sure.


But by then you've already wasted many hours grinding Pokemon that are by "competitive standards" unfit for use just to get through the game.

That's impossible. The Pokemon don't know real-time.


I mean look at the show!
