Thread: What do you want in Gen 6?

I would like there to be more uniqueness that makes my pokemon different from someone else's. So If I boost a strength stat, my pokemon, say, grows in size. And that there are sometimes other common forms and colors for pokemon to make mine seem more original.

Some stuff I'd like:

- Grid based movement, as always

- Improved trading. It doesn't even need to be improved a lot, but definitely remove stuff like requesting a level 10 Mewtwo or other such nonsense which do nothing other than clog up the trades. That, and allow you to search for Pokémon that you haven't yet seen.

- Generation III remakes. Two games, but they wouldn't be Ruby and Sapphire remakes. Get this... one for Emerald and one for Yellow. Yes, Yellow. Basically, it would be a FireRed / LeafGreen remake rather than another Generation I remake, but it would have all the Yellow Version features, including the Surfing Pikachu minigame. And the Unknown Dungeon would have the layout from Yellow rather than Red / Green.

- Fusions (probably like the feature in Black2/White2, but I haven't played that so I don't know):
(Slowpoke + Shellder) = Slowbro (instead of getting Slowbro through evolution)
(Magnemite + Magnemite + Magnemite) = Magneton (instead of getting Magneton through evolution)
(Kyurem + Zekrom) = Black Kyurem
(Kyurem + Reshiram) = White Kyurem
(Reshiram + Zekrom + Kyurem) or (Black Kyurem + Reshiram) or (White Kyurem + Zekrom) = The Original Dragon
And just for fun, (Venusaur + Blastoise) = Venustoise
And anything I'm forgetting about, as well as any new Pokémon who could take advantage of this feature.

- Orange Islands sidequest or bonus area. Yeah, I know it's never going to happen, but that would be awesome. Gym challenges would include minigames in addition to battles. And there could be Pinkan Berries. They turn the Pokémon pink. Not sure what use that would have gameplay-wise, but still. lol

- Remove HMs entirely. As in, make them all into TM moves. And include the Surfboard to make sure no one somehow gets stuck on an island by doing something bizarre like bringing only a Surfing Pikachu and overwriting Surf which it can't re-learn.

No merging the anime with the games, please. The games rule, the anime sucks. I do agree about getting rid of HMs, though. I'm sick of having to teach useless Cut to my Pokémon in order to go through the game.

The Slowbro thing isn't just the anime... it's referenced in the Pokédex entries and Pokémon Snap.
More so for Magneton... in fact, it does not evolve that way in the anime (as far as I know).

I see what you're saying about the rest though. I still don't think it'd be a bad idea, but maybe that's because I was a fan of the earlier anime.

More Eevee! I want every type to get an eeveelution :)

Also, I would like secret bases to return, I loved those.

Also, a version of Dr Footstep xD It was so funny when I talked to him and he told me what my Pokemon were thinking.

I want Game Freak to get rid of the stupid Dream World. It's annoying, difficult to use, and not even fun. Find another way to let people get Pokémon with Hidden Abilities.

- I primarily want R/S remakes/sequels as everybody else.
- Hoenn Pokémon getting new evolutions/pre-evolutions.
- I want them to keep the automatic Repel feature from B2/W2, it's really helpful.
- I want for Pokémon to be able to follow you again.
- Multiple save files, need I say more?
- No more third versions, I want sequels/prequels/spin-offs, I don't care, I just want something else.
- More Eeveelutions, of course.
- I want something similar to a visual novel where your choices directly impact the main plot leading towards multiple endings. This automatically enhances the replay value of the game and along with the multiple save files, you won't be forced to reset your progress in order to start a new game. Naturally, multiple save files are as useful on their own.
- I want a new Battle Frontier but with an actual prize for completing it like a Shiny Haxorus.
- No more HM's, they really aren't necessary anymore. Either that, or downgrade them to TM's.

I want walking pokemon, dragon/fighting type and a flying/fighting type, an evolution or pre-evolution for Absol and most importantly for the battles to look a little something like this....

I'd like to see the Ancient Dragon that Kyrem, Reshiram and Zekrom were originally a part of as a Legendary Pokemon, since B/W2 burned us for it.
I'd also like there to be more than a single 'side competition' (like contests or Pokathalon), and more variations of rules in gym battles (Doubles, Rotation, etc).

Also, I think a nice (but unnecessary) feature would be to record battle videos in some sort of video format (.mp4 or .avi or something like that) and save them to an SD card, which you could then use to transfer them to your computer, where you could then view them or upload them to YouTube or even the Pokémon website. The way it's set up now is kind of a hassle... you need to do everything through the DS which isn't all that convenient.

And at the very least, have the ability to save more than one battle video. Saving a single battle video (and forcing you to delete the previous one) doesn't really cut it.

What is this?! So a 3D battle game is finally in the works?!... But... Why does it look so childish...?

Aaaaghh my ears X___X I hate J-Pop so much.

i agree there.lol

i would like that the player characters have normal haircuts. not ones that look like they were attacked by a clothes washer and a weedwacker. also the characters be atleast 14 of age..
for an anime of gen 6 (ugh) i hope ash gains some years (atleast 4) and becomes the battler he was in DP. and the anime would have to put some HUMOR in it. but the number one thing i am hoping for is that the music in the game will be the same quality as in the pokemon ranger games.

I want a grass/fire type Pokemon and not another fire/fighting starter Pokemon.

I want an Ice/Fire Pokémon D:

-I want Game Freak to make it impossible to ask for impossible Pokémon on the GTS (like the level 9 and under Zekrom those idiots ask for now)
-I want Game Freak to let me ask for Pokémon I don't have yet (this should probably be a feature that won't be unlocked until you get the national Pokédex or something like that)
-I want Game Freak to let me scroll through multiple pages of trades. Not being able to see more than 6(?) is stupid...
-I want Game Freak to let me remove the nickname of nicknamed Pokémon i get through the GTS.
-I want Game Freak to remove the stupid 1 hour time limit on the dream world. That feature needs work besides this IMO, but the time limit only makes it worse (also, don't force me into a ten minute "how-to" each time i try to use it
