Does the game ever REALLY end?
Here is a question I was thinking about. Do Pokemon games ever end. I dont think they do as there is always something to do whether it be rechallenging the Elite 4, completing the Pokedex, taking part in battle frontier or battle tower, or rebattling trainers. What do you think?
|
no it is goes on for a LONG TIME e.g KANTO TO SINNOH
|
nope , because you can always level up pokemon and breed and catch new ones. The early ones I do believe could end, but now the gba ones or d/p
|
If your playing naturlly without hacking, the games go on forever really, there's always something you can do, just hav to have the time and drive to do them. xD

But imagine if you can get all pokemon lvl 100 and all shiny without hacking. (posible)
Defeat the elite 4 the max amount of times. get max amount of money/items Defeat all trainers. I think it can be done. |
I don't think the games ever end.

no because maybe you could get every pokemon with every moveset and stat and ability and shiny but it would take forever and you can always to battle tower rechallenge elite four trade with friends battle with friends remake secret base etc so i dont think they do even if the story line ends
|
But don't you eventually run out of space? ._.;;
I have 540 Pokemon, I think that's the max you can have [not including your team], and all my boxes are full... I say it can be done. I have the max amount of money, pokemon, etc, plus shinies of every Pokemon I want [stuff like shiny Shellos doesn't appeal to me...it looks almost identical to its normal one. Shiny Darkrai, on the other hand...]...I'd say I'm pretty much done. ._. I mean, yeah, you can do online with D/P, but that gets old once you start to memorize your friends' teams, and you can do random battle with PBR, but half the time, you get noobs with a team of five hacked legends and a Lucario [which are ALL easily taken care of if you have good, diverse movesets], and that loses its fun after a while. So I think it's totally possible to be done with a Pokemon game. |

(well its not pointless just i think you misread it) |

lol :p It can be done but you would be a sad loser with no life. *cough*kat*cough* |
This thread just isn't epic enough for such a serious matter, so it needs my presence to survive.
No. A Pokemon game will never end. You could get bored of it and never play it, but that doesn't really count. |
No. To catch and level up every Pokemon to 100 would take an extremely long time and even after that there is stuff to do. If you have the Vs. Seeker you can re-battle [almost] anyone over again.
|
For someone who plays as casual as me (Couple of hours maybe less a night) I'd say no, definitely not. I like that, it's one of the only games that is like it (Sims 2, Oblivion come to mind)
Open ended games rock. Sam |

Also, in Pokemon Emerald there is so much more you can do such as the Battle Tents, Pokemon Contests, Battle Frontier, and my personal favorite, rechallenging gym leaders and trainers. Yet in Sonic games after you beat all of the levels and get the Emeralds, youre done.
|
you can re challenge gym leaders in Emerald??? That's amazing I had no clue, how many times can you re challenge them?

Gee thanks. It's the whole obtainable Pokedex. Plus all the event Pokemon. xD |
I don't think the game ever ends, since there are always things you can do.
|
This is the game that never eeeennndddsss and it goes on and on my fffrrriiieeennndddsss!
Couldn't restrain myself there. Anyway, it's a game that doesn't end because there are always stuff to do. You can battle with friends, trade with friends, change your team, experiment with different movesets and natures and Pokemon, contests, so so much! The list goes on and on. |
The only game that can match this is Sims 2 with its replay ability

But I agree, the games never truly end, the only thing that ends or fades is, as many here have stated, the urge to play them. |

How did the Sims games even get involved in this topic? o_o
If you have the time and the attention span, you can completely beat the game. I guess completely beating it would be getting every shiny, maxing out all of your pokemon, and Beating all the events. |

How...could you compare...
... Care to explain how you can compare games that are based on totally separate gameplay than each other? |

I believe pokemon is completable due to the fact that I just beat my diamond version jpn last week. I mean events, shiny pkdx, etc. while linking with my cousins and capturing my 700th flag. I am still bored with the game. And no I didn't use a cheat machine! I'm too cheap to buy one anyway.
|
Yep. The game ends. All games to. It ends whenever you get tired of it and stop playing. Eventually you'll run out of events or things to do and just quit. Sure, you can restart the game and play it again, but really once you've done that 10 or 12 times, its over, you know?
|
Oh ok cool. Yeah I geuss it would be boring after a while
EDIT: I read the post correctly, and changed my rudeness sorry |

Nope its a never ending cycle of training, battling, and catching, Unless you stop playing that is.

Thats what I always think about, but then I realize I can collect Shinies, play online (in D/P) battle tower, breeding and a lot more. I truly believe Pokemon is an amazing endless game with always things to do! |
I still feel it ends... until you restart it.
I've always hated rom hacks, but now that I own a PSP and their all portable, I can play so many different games, it never truely ends. |
But if you have motivation to get every shiny, that'll take a long, long time, and also to get all pokes to lvl 100.
Actually, in fact I believe the GBA games can end but probably after like 700+hours of game play. Because in D / P there is online play |
I guess it's almost impossible, but still yes. If you have a lot of patience, I guess you can make it to the end...
|
I say no, because you can do stuff everyday just like G/S/C and D/P. ;)
*there is also events* |
Very true, lots and lots of stuff to do in these great games
