you can always improve but to actually make a change in the mechanics?
when it comes to breeding, i'll have to say definitely NO. especially regarding stuff like fusions... just... no.
if i want to fuse stuff i'll just play an SMT game instead.
what they could do, though, is to implement ways for people to get the info they need without having to resort to online guides.
i think that trying to make the games self-sufficient especially when it comes to vital information would be one more step in the right direction.
and breeding is important not only for competitive players but also for anyone looking to get decent results on the battle tower/subway/*insert new name*.
I just want access to breeding earlier in the game. I got pretty annoyed in gen 5 when there was all these egg moves I wanted for my pokemon but you couldn't access the day care until after the E4. What was the point of that? Would have been nice to have an option with a fossil pokemon as well but that's another issue.
yeah, that really ticked me off.
it's very rare for me to complain about stuff but having the day-care as post-game content was a bit too much for me to accept and probably one of the reasons why i don't play the sequels as much as i would like.
well, that and the fact that the rival seemed really cool on the trailers and stuff but then when i actually played the games it really disappointed me to see him go: "whes ma pokaman!!! whes ma sistas parlooooin?!!" constantly, instead of that being simply one of his goals but still retaining a deeper reason to go on a jorney and to defeat the bad guys.
i didn't expect a really deep plot in pokemon but having a rival basically being a crybaby and throwing a HUGE tantrum from the beginning to the end of the game was truly annoying to say the least.
don't get me wrong though, i really appreciate all the effort they've been putting into giving us a good gaming experience without compromising their sales and place on the market.
