Features from X&Y you wish were in OR/AS?
There were a lot of features introduced in X&Y that were absent from OR/AS. Some of it was due to it being a remake of a game that was made before those features existed, some of it was due to the fact that certain features are unique to the Kalos region (like the Holo Caster, which was invented in Kalos). Either way, we probably all have things we wish had been included in OR/AS. What about you, which features do you wish they had brought back into OR/AS?
For me, it's definitely trainer customization. I really miss having a uniquely designed character. Especially during Wi-Fi battles, where it's sometimes May vs. May or Brendan vs. Brendan o.o |

Trainer Customization absolutely! I really miss it >.< I liked getting new outfits and cute hair for my avatar.
Roller skating was fun too! |
Apparently, the "XY to ORAS" changes are here - http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Generation_VI#Alterations_from_Pok.C3.A9mon_X_and_Y
Off the top of my head: Pokémon Trainer customization, for sure! Not sure about any other major omitted features..although Pokémon Trainer PR videos, natural objects, and Sky Battles should all have been retained. I dislike limiting "features" to a region/set of games unless absolutely necessary.. Particularly with customization..non-French people play dress up too, you know, Game Freak.. -.- Additionally, I don't buy the excuse of "letting Brendan and May retain their original/unique/distinctive looks from Generation 3", as arguably their outfits have been altered noticeably/substantially in Generation 6, and they even don entirely different outfits for Pokémon Contests (-Spectaculars)! Hopefully, the feature returns in full force for Pokémon Z (if it will exist) and Generation 7 and beyond. I mean, if Game Freak wants regions to have their own "identity" apart from other regions, then the regions can do that with the regional geography and (most) of the Pokemon Trainers that the region in question contains (after all, each region can't contain the exact same people and places - primarily due to plotline and variety purposes). Oh, and the XY Berry mechanics should have been retained! (if they were good, that is) Also, I think there was an issue with the ORAS Berry Trees having a discrepancy with different Berry coloration and/or Berry number/count in contrast with the XY Berry Trees...? Something about the unique Berry Tree sprites or something about Berry Tree not accurately reflecting the Berry number..? ~_~ The XY Friend Safari mechanic should have also returned, although in a non-online dependent manner (or at least a manner where you can still reap all of the benefits if you don't have other players to connect to). And a Hoenn-style Battle Chateau should have returned from XY as well! |
I really miss trainer customization, friend safaris and battle frontier from emerald. I hope ¿"Pokemon Z"? improve trainer customization.

I think we needed a stinking Battle Frontier, possibly with a Friend Safari thrown onto it (leaving the standard one). And like everyone else said, I want my Black Trench Coat Dress back. |
I would agree with most of the users here and say that I wanted Trainer Customization back as well, because that's what makes every Trainers unique in a way.
|
Trainer customization is a MUST for Brendon and May their look just so plain while as PC aside contest looks is only for contest and it's shame though. Safari needs to be replaced with Friend Safari

Trainer Customization
which has been said a million times already Quote:

I know they wanted to keep the original designs of the characters (even though they didn't keep the original designs), but really, if we could dress up a Pikachu, why can't we dress up the main character? They could have at least let us change the color scheme of their outfits--for example, making May's shirt and bandana purple instead of red.

I think trainer customization for brenden/may would look weird

Also, I've said this before, but I wish they had implemented the soaring encounters as Sky Battles, and maybe had some Sky Trainer encounters integrated into soaring as well. I don't think Sky Battles even made an appearance at all in OR/AS (unless I just missed it?), which is a shame because it's an idea that has a lot of potential, and I'd hate to see them just scrap it altogether. |

I agree on the potential part with Sky Battles, especially we have a Flying-type Gym. Whilst not a fan of Sky Battles, they really could have make use of it in ORAS! Just imagine Winona limiting us to use Flying Pokemon! For those who do not use any Flying or floating Pokemon, it's definitely gonna drive them nuts! X'D
Imo, the feature that could have been part of ORAS from XY is easily the trainer customization feature. I love Battle Chateau as well, we can earn money from various rich trainers and we can also have rematches with our favorite Gym Leaders and Elite Four members! So Battle Chateau could have been part of ORAS too! |
Being able to ride on a Pokémon like in X/Y would be a neat thing to see. That's something I've been thinking about for a while now.
|
The one feature I miss most is trainer customization. :/
|
May with short purple hair and a fedora would look weird.

player customisation, friend safari's and poke radar chaining
|
I miss trainer customization too, not only because it allowed trainers to be unique, but also because May's design was utterly ruined.
|
As many have already pointed out, trainer customisation was sorely missed. I love my sporty female character! I've also enjoyed using the Battle Chateau and riding the Pokemon through different terrains.
|
I have to agree with all of you. Customization was something I just loved. (I knew were I was going to spend my money).
|
I can see why customization was not in ORAS and doubt it will be in the remakes in years to come. I do wish something like the Battle Chaetu was in ORAS
