    Maybe they don't wanna show them.... you know... mating. I mean I know that they don't have to show that part but....that's an issue that would come up. I mean if they did that they might have to remove the breeding option from the North American release of the game like they did with the game corner in the European release. (Not like that would happen)

    Why would they have to do that?

    There are people in the States who are very prudish about that. But it's not gonna happen.

    Anyway I think that GameFreak/Nintendo was just too lazy to put extra sprites in there. I would be too, actually. I mean there's more than 400 creatures you have to put the data in for in that particular location.

    Well, seeing as that feature was in the originals, and the possiblity of pokemon following you, I think there's a good chance.

    I really wish you could see the pokemon in the back of the daycare center. It would be cool to play with them!! ^^; and it's one of the newer games and if we could do it before why not now?

    I have to agree. Though I do think they'll put it in HeartGold and SoulSilver. As for playing with them, I'm not sure. It'd be weird to see your player playing with a Regirock or a Ho-oh.

    I agree. I'd like to see them in the back. It would be awesomesauce. ;~;

    And it pretty much looks like the other Pokemon who actually show up were abandoned by their trainers. They're their for, like, ever. =p

    They probably have abandoned their pokemon. That Buneary never stops running around, imagine how annoying it is to have it accompany you..

    I don't really think they were abandoned. They could possibly be there just for the show off. It doesn't even have to be owned by a trainer. Then again, they could've been abandoned by a trainer a long time ago, but who knows.

    I don't think it would be weird to see any of the legendaries at
    the daycare. It would just be the same sprite as when in your
    party. Just like on the old gold and silver they used the sprite that
    was used in your party as the one you see at the daycare. obviously
    now though each pokemon has its own sprite then back then when
    they only used a few to represent different pokemon manly on body
    style.

    Well it would be pretty weird to see it walking around as the party sprite. The legendaries would look too mini and when you battle Dialgia, Palkia, and the rest, they are very tall, so it wouldn't make sense to shrink them. It would be really awkward to see a Giratina really tall when you catch it, and then outside of the Daycare Center it is really small.

    I would have loved that. They also should of had like Ditto to transform in the random pokemon in the daycare if you put it in XD
    I can so imagine a Groudon chillin' by the gate .

    Seeing a Ditto transform into another pokemon in there would actually be pretty cool. It'd be an awesome feature to have, but I doubt that'll ever happen. It's an amazing idea though. For example, that Buneary outside. If you put your Ditto in the Daycare Center and the lady shows you into the back so you can play with your pokemon and leave when you want, you could see the Ditto transform into a Buneary. However, when you leave, you can come and go when you want from a little gate. (it's an idea); Then when you are ready to pick it up you go to the lady and she'll bring it back for you as its normal forme, Ditto. The old man of course, still tells you and gives you the eggs.

    It's a crazy thought and I doubt it will ever happen, but it's an idea.

    I agree. Maybe they do things to them :x. Or maybe it would be cool to even go in with them.

    I agree, we need to interact with our Pokemon a little more! >.>;
    I'd love to go in there and watch all the cute little Buneary critters hop around and there's my Rampardos stomping around looking fugly. XD

    On the other hand, I probably wouldn't want to walk in on my Alakazam and my Mr. Mime while I'm trying for an Abra with mommy's nature and flawless special attack and daddy's nifty Encore move. =x

    Maybe if there was a way where we could walk with our pokemon outside of the Daycare like in Amity Square, it would've been nice. It would've been cool if the pokemon could pick up items as well. Also if we could walk with them and it'll boost their frienship with you it'd be pretty cool. That way when you're trying to level up a pokemon that evolves with love, it wouldn't be as hard. I would actually like that to happen in these games, but I doubt they will remake those games again.

    yeah that would be an awesome feature... but its a lot of work to create so-called "overworld templates" of each pokemon ... and when i think about that: when you put an wailord in the day care center ... OMFG!! =D =D and yea water types general ... they dont can live in the back GARDEN.

    I have to agree. Especially since there is no ocean in the back to where you can put the water pokemon in. Maybe if there was an ocean it would've been better for your pokemon to be in the back. Though the Daycare "Garden" would have to be a lot wider or taller.

    I do have to say though, it'd be an awesome idea for those who would like to play with their pokemon, maybe even check their moods like in Pokemon Yellow, and walk around with them while they bond with you. They would just have to add in and maybe even take out, some features for the Day Care Center.

    Maybe in the next generation or so, we'll be able to have that happen, but Nintendo will have to really plan that out. They would have to see what differences it would make, how it would be rated by careful parents, how it would make sense, and much more. I wouldn't mind not having all this happening, but I must say, it would be an awesome thing to have.
