If you could start your adventure in a different town or city other than the standard starting towns, which would you choose?

Kanto - Lavender Town. Because it's creepy. It's also in a great location that could allow you to go to any one of four Gyms and work your way around the region from there. Plus...seeing the spirits of Pokemon. Perhaps one of them could inspire you to become a Pokemon Trainer, maybe starting with a Cubone that lost its mother?

Johto - Mahogany Town. They could expand on the whole Lake of Rage operation as a result of starting here; perhaps it could be the event that would inspire you to become a trainer? Team Rocket always seemed a bit of a distant threat in the second gen up to the point they hijacked the radio tower in Goldenrod City, so it'd be nice to see them become a bit more prominent. Since they made their HQ here, they'd be a pretty overt threat.

Hoenn
- Dewford Town. It's at a convenient middle point, so it'd be nice to be able to explore either way in Hoenn. Are you going to go and tackle your dad in Petalburg, or perhaps go the other way to Slateport instead? I have to admit I almost picked Fortree for Hoenn because it's a wonderfully designed place, but it doesn't offer that same freedom of choice Dewford could.

Sinnoh - Celestic Town, for it's connection to Sinnoh myths and old-timey ways. It'd be nice to start in such a quaint little town and then slowly work your way up towards civilisation, and it'd make the plot with Team Galactic far more of a personal thing, given the close proximity of the Celestic Ruins and the knowledge your character would have of Dialga/Palkia from the start.

Unova
- No matter where I start in Unova, I'm not going to think the place is any better, so it really doesn't matter in this case. I don't care. xD

Kalos - Starting in Lumiose would be best, I think...it's the only location in Kalos that's particularly noteworthy, to be honest. Being a city kid venturing out into the wilderness would be a pretty interesting perspective for Pokemon to take, as well.

If you could start your adventure in a different town or city other than the standard starting towns, which would you choose?

Kalos: I think I go with anistar city.The city has boutique and the most important mega ring upgrade by which player can find mega stone.

Unova: Same here anything goes.I can start game in any city.

Sinnoh: Eterna city I just like it.

Hoenn:Ever Grande City there is something about this city it always attracted me. plus to be so near to Pokemon league is another fun.

Jhoto: Goldenrod city is one of my favourite city. Starting journey here means department store , game corner and many other things.

Kanto: I just want to go with flow in this region so pallet town is best for this .

Fortree City, because I can catch me an Absol to be my bestest friend forever. Also because treehouses are cool and stuff.

No fire starter for you then!

...It's the only reason why I didn't pick Fortree for Hoenn. Too much risk involved.

Then again, you're conveniently in Absol territory. I guess you can pick a fire starter, threaten to set the city ablaze and hope a few Absols come running in to warn the townspeople.

You... planned this out, didn't you?

Pffft, I'd take Treecko over Torchic any day. I don't need to set the city on fire.

What a plan...I hope you have a Kyogre on standby to summon up some rain when you're finished? :P

Here are my choices:

Kanto: I actually like Pallet Town as a starting town. It's a nice little place, so Pallet Town it is.

Johto: Blackthorn City has sort of a special place in my heart because I've actually been to the city that it's based on, and it's one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. Also Dragons :3

Hoenn: Dewford Town, because I'd like to start my journey with a Mawile.

Sinnoh: Sunyshore Town, because it's such a nice, peaceful looking place, and I've always thought the elevated walkways were really cool.

Unova: Driftveil, because it has such a wide variety of different types of Pokemon in the areas surrounding it--there's the cold storage to the south, and there's some grasslands and caves to the north.

Kalos: Couriway Town, because I love that waterfall, and it's nearby a train station, so I could easily travel to another region and start my journey there as well.

kanto-Yeah I too love Pallet town as it is my home(*wink wink*) in many pokemon journeys!

Johto-Charicific valley cause charizard's!Hoping to get one from the most feared dragon in the world

Hoenn-Mosdeep city.Cause of Steven and so a chance to get a metagross as gift.If it wasnt for town/cities I would have had chosen one of the numerous secret bases that are there.

SInnoh-Sunyshore city.I like peaceful places

Unova-I love Aspertia city.Due to the mountains and the view of whole unova(fig.of speech lol)

Kalos-sigh never got to play anything from xy!rip

If you could start your adventure in a different town or city other than the standard starting towns, which would you choose?

Kanto - Having played though Kanto countless times, I actually think Pallet Town is the most appropriate. But if I had to choose an alternative, it'd be Fuchsia City.

Johto - Azalea Town because there's so much to do here when starting out.

Hoenn - Petalburg City because it'd be interesting to see if the player lived at the gym. Kind of like the anime, but without the sibling. Or you could add the sibling.

Sinnoh - Jubilife City because I think it'd be interesting to see the player start in a large city, versus in a tiny town. Change it up a bit.

Unova - Mistralton City because I like airplanes.

Kalos - Lumiose City because there's a lot to do and it's a huge city!

KetsuekiR October 12th, 2015 6:46 AM

What's a move (or moves) that you'd say you rely on the most heavily in-game?
While I don't like HMs, I use Surf extremely often. Other moves include Flamethrower, Close Combat, Ice Beam, Dark Pulse, Psychic and the other accurate moves that do around 100 damage xD

If you could start your adventure in a different town or city other than the standard starting towns, which would you choose?
I'd love to start out in any of the major cities! It'd be a nice change from starting out in a small village and we could have the option of traveling in any direction and following whatever path you chose :P

Question of the Day

Which gym leader would you most prefer to travel with on a Pokemon journey?

VisualJae October 12th, 2015 7:04 PM

Which gym leader would you most prefer to travel with on a Pokemon journey?

Hmmmmmmmmmm... God, this is difficult.

If I want to bro it up with one, I'd probably pick Blue. It's odd. But I can imagine getting along with him somehow.

If I want someone I can stare at, I'd probably pick Skyla. I don't understand what she's wearing.

Bellsprout October 12th, 2015 7:11 PM

erika or valerie, i feel like we could have some deep/weird convos

Jasmine, probably. Her Steel-types complement Dragons quite well by covering the latter's weaknesses, useful in tag battles. Jasmine is calm and quiet as well, so I think getting along with her would not be a problem.

Brycen wouldn't make a bad companion either. He has years of experience and deep knowledge about both battling and Pokemon, which would be helpful with pretty much everything. He's also heavily disciplined, which could aid in keeping shape for Gym Challenges and Pokemon Leagues.

pkmin3033 October 12th, 2015 9:33 PM

Jasmine. I think I'd get on fairly well with Jasmine; she's shy and I'm reticent, so there would be a lot of silence on the road, but it wouldn't be too uncomfortable after that initial period where we'd have no idea what to expect of one another. She doesn't have someone trying to force her to talk, and I don't have someone talking my ear off whether I answer or not. It works out nicely. Jasmine is also one of the few Gym Leaders who I think would actually be quite adventurous as well; I mean, she DOES end up in Sinnoh, so there's a core of steel (haha) under that shy persona that could make for an interesting companion.

There are other reasons, but I don't need to go into those, right? *coughs awkwardly*

Fortree City/Lilycove City/Slateport City/Petalburg City/Sootopolis City - Yes, yes, yes I love the Hoenn region so much.
Humilau City/Lacunosa Town/Castelia City/Nacrene City/Mistralton City - The beach, the atmosphere, the city, the artistic air, the airport. <3
Cherrygrove City - Wait, is that even a city? o_O Regardless, I still love it as it's near the beach. :)
Sandgem Town - Exact the same reason as the Cherrygrove.
Cyllage City - A seaside city, I love the bike racecourse a lot as well!
Oh and they are also biased picks on the OSTs, hahaha.

Marlon, Cilan, Flannery, Roxanne, Brawly, Misty, Gardenia, Maylene, Candice, Roark, Volkner, Elesa, Skyla, Viola, Iris, Winona. Hmmmm, yes I'm greedy.~

Melody October 12th, 2015 11:30 PM

For some reason, Flannery just sticks out to me even though there are probably others who might compliment my lovely Swampert better. That said I do think as far as personality, type compatibility and complementation; she's just a very natural choice. As much as I like leaders like Roxanne, Winona, or Wallace; I get the sense that I'd probably offend them somehow in our travels while someone like Flannery would say her piece, then be like "Yeah whatever." without being like actually mad. I guess you could say she'd probably understand having passion for something really well and be somewhat of an open minded person.

Laguna October 13th, 2015 2:51 AM

Uhhhhhhhhhhh... I don't know? I guess Brycen for Ground coverage and because he's cool, pun totally intended.

KetsuekiR October 13th, 2015 3:53 AM

Which gym leader would you most prefer to travel with on a Pokemon journey?

Probably Skyla or Elesa since they seem rather fun! Honestly, this question's the hardest one yet and I have no idea who I'd really choose xD

Lycanthropy October 13th, 2015 6:27 AM

Which gym leader would you most prefer to travel with on a Pokemon journey?
Probably Blaine, Erika, Flannery, Winona, Gardenia or Cheren. These are the people I expect to get along with the best.

Desinishon October 13th, 2015 7:01 AM

Which gym leader would you most prefer to travel with on a Pokemon journey?

aaaah I can't choose really but I gonna .... I think .... .I am still thinking.......its just coming in my mind. ..... ..... I gonna travel with Elesa or volkner .....volkner or Elsa ...

Volknar and that's for sure he is damn cool and one of my favourite gym leaders.

Otamajakushi October 13th, 2015 7:20 AM

Which gym leader would you most prefer to travel with on a Pokemon journey?

Liza and Tate! Then I'd get to travel with two people! Or, Clemont, because I think he'd be fun to talk to.

NocturnLeader October 13th, 2015 3:38 PM

Which gym leader would you most prefer to travel with on a Pokemon journey?

Cheren, he is smart and can probably help out with training methods. Most likely tough enough to help defeat any gang members that would attack.

AkameTheBulbasaur October 13th, 2015 4:48 PM

Which gym leader would you most prefer to travel with on a Pokemon journey?

I would want to travel with Morty. Ghost Types are pretty cool to me. He was always my favorite Johto Gym Leader for some inexplicable reason.
