5th Gen Actually calling out the pokemon's move?

I would LOVE to see this implemented. You could voice record it so it responds on your DS, and every time you upgrade a move you say it. This would be difficult to implement, but would make it so much more realistic. What do you guys think?

Eh... it sounds like a neat idea, but I wouldn't go for it. They already put so much into this game, plus the other amazing things we've yet to see. I don't really think this is something that should be implemented.

i guess you could do either. I mean, I play with the sound up full volume and i shout at my DS. But some need it quiet so either would be good :3.

Just push the button and yell out the command and pretend the voice made the attack happen...That way the rest of us don't have to do this ever...

It's a great idea and all and I'd love to see it done PROPERLY... but it'd be the same hassle as playing Nintendogs all over again... they didn't sit when I told them to so why will my Pidgeotto be any different... other than maybe after the fifth unresponsive "Wing Attack now!" I may want to pluck it...

Eugh...I hate anything to do with the DS's microphone, so I'm not a fan of this idea tbh. As MistahDude pointed out it wouldn't work with people who have speech impediments, and as Azure said the microphone doesn't work well with other programs that use it. :/ Can you imagine the fury if you call out one attack, the game misinterprets it and your Pokémon uses another? *shudder*

I think it's a good idea, something I can see them implementing later down the road. Of course, while keeping the ability to just press which attack you want to use, giving you the choice of either speech or just plain old pressing buttons.

It seems like a good idea... But I'd get pretty annoyed -.-

Although, I wouldn't want to be seen in public screaming at my DSi telling my Chatot to use Hyper Voice xD

This. At least in Phantom Hourglass, you could blow into the microphone instead of yelling like the manual suggested. Because there are older players who don't want attention drawn to themselves. And what about playing in public? I don't think the people around whomever is playing would appreciate hearing "TACKLE! TACKLE!"

If this was optional, I wouldn't mind having it included. It would be more fun for those who like actually commanding their Pokemon. The DS's microphone, however, really isn't the best at picking up what someone is saying at times. Especially when the player has a speech impediment, like I do. I really don't want to have my Pokemon attack with the wrong move just because the microphone didn't pick up my annunciation/I didn't say the attack correctly.

The option would be fun though. Just no major reliance. This all reminds me of Hey You! Pikachu! and how badly that microphone worked.
