Okay, so I like to create game concepts for fun, as a hobby. So I am trying to make a concept on how I would remake Pokemon. I have some ideas and wrote them down, but I wanted to know what other people would want to add to the Pokemon games. So I went to google and searched everywhere and all I found online was how people wanted new Pokemon or a certain Pokemons pre evolution added, really simple things, but nothing about what game elements people hate and want changed/removed or what they would add in themselves. PLEASE POST ANYTHING YOU WOULD CHANGE, REMOVE, OR ADD TO THE POKEMON GAMES, ANYTHING AT ALL.



(Pokemon games I am talking about are Pokemon Black/White and ones before it)

put the secret hideouts from ruby and sapphire back in, they were awesome and i dont know why they were taken out. same with the contests, the acro bike only platforms, the mach bike only slopes, and the diving underwater mechanics that were added.

and make the story more free roaming so you can go to the gyms in any order, and visit all regions.

another thing, there is a game being developed in the game development part of the forum (cant remember that name) that makes it so pokemon dont forget moves, so at any time when not in battle you can change a pokemons moveset using any moves it has previously learnt

The biggest change I'd make is changing the battle mechanics slightly. Upon encountering a wild Pokemon, I wish you could have the option to run from battle straight away instead of just throwing out your first Pokemon. It only takes about 5 seconds, but I wish I could have that precious time back!

ADD:
Customization for your trainer.
Secret Bases, R/S/E style.

CHANGE:
Why must Victory Road always be a rocky cave? Surely the Pokemon League can come up with a more creative way to test prospective challengers' abilities.

REMOVE:
Caves you need Flash for.
Anything you need Defog for
Anything you need Rock Climb for.

I totally had this idea too, it was one of the ones I wrote down. I wanted it so that when you met a wild monster if you instantly started pressing the b button over and over it would run away automatically, but if you did this you wouldn't know what Pokemon you ran from, since it wouldn't show.

I also think they should take out HM's completely and have it where rock smash you have to have a rock Pokemon, for cut you have to have a grass Pokemon...etc, instead of having to teach the Pokemon a specific move. I also loved the mining and hideout option for pear/diamond.

i wouls let people notice if you had a legendary or some strong pokemon rather then just abttle it and stand there like dimwits with no idea of the seriousness of what had just ahppened, especially elite four trainers and gym leaders.

I would change if u could have a pokemon follow you, and what the pokemon would be. I think this would change the whole entire pokemon gaming field!

This isn't realistic at all... but if I could change anything, I would make it possible to go into the game and into the world of Pokemon :D How awesome would that be? Of course that isn't possible :x

Other than that, I can't think of anything I would really like to change.

ADD: Secret Bases like in Ruby and Sapphire. They were probably the only things I liked about those games :x
CHANGE: No need for HMs except for HM Surf. You only need a Pokemon of the corresponding type, like:
Fighting-Rock Smash
Electric-Flash
Grass-Cut
Rock/Ground-Rock Climb
Flying-Fly/Defog
Normal-Strength

Or maybe......items instead?

REMOVE: Pokemon Contests/Musicals. Uggh, these are terrible! :x
HACKS I SUPPORT:

Kind of furthering the idea of trainer customization, I would make the playable character older. There's something about the trainer always being 10 years old that just...bothers me.


REMOVE:
Caves you need Flash for.
Anything you need Defog for
Anything you need Rock Climb for.
^ This to. :)

For the most part, just add a lot of customization for the users’ character/Pokémon. Here are some ideas . . .

I’ve always wanted to tattoo my Raichu with a streak of lightning down its cheek. It’d be awesome and you know it, don’t lie. Also, if parents get mad about kids tattooing a Pokémon, it could just be considered a stamp or sticker instead. They could allow you to place them on the front of the Pokémon for the opponent to see and on the back of the Pokémon for the user to see (if they want to).

They could also allow trainers to dye the coat of their Pokémon in both a primary and secondary color. For example, a Raichu being dyed black where it’s orange/brown (primary color) and grey where the light yellow color is located.

To add:
Trainer customization
Pokemon customization (you know, like dress-up sections of contests, except all the time, in battles etc.)
R/S/E Secret Bases :3
Acro and Mach bikes :D
Contests or Pokeathlon (Or both!)
MAKE IT SO POKEMON FOLLOW YOU AGAIN. For me, a major let down of Black and White :(
In caves, add something like rocky patches where Pokemon can be found instead of it just being random. Same for water too, add rippling patches.
ALL REGIONS, OMG!

Change: Victory road. It's been virtually the same in EVERY main Pokemon game. I don't know what, just change it :)

I wouldn't really remove much, except Musicals and HMs Defog and Flash.

I'd add trainer customization like others have said.

Also I would re-add the follow me feature as in HGSS, it's a great feature.

Also I think I'd like for there to be another save file so I can start over whimsically but that will never happen because it'd give people less reason to buy another copy of the game and it'd make trading and stuff weird idk. I still don't wanna hafta lose everything I had so I can start over :c

I would change things in the TV Series.

Pikachu can beat Legends and extremely strong Pokemon in the Leagues etc - but then struggle during the new B/W series against low level pokes...annoying. He is bound to be a ridiculously high level by now!

Ash pretending to know nothing all over again, in each series. Tedious.

Exactly!

But after some speculation, I did come up with some things I would like to change. You know when your pokemon gets confused and little ducks float around its head? I always thought it would be awesome if they are Psyducks.

Also, I think that hail should effect fire pokemon. Wouldn't it just melt in most cases?
