I was under the impression that you wanted to see all of Johto...
I'm trying to work within Cerberus' idea, which has the Orange Islands instead.

Uh...in that case Lance is already ruined as of HGSS considering his rematch team there had Salamence and Garchomp (in addition to Tyranitar and his ace Dragonite, having a team with higher a Higher Base Stat total than Cynthia's). I guess they could make the rematch teams the teams the characters have in GSC/HGSS the first time we battle them (but at higher levels).
This a new timeline which means a new retcon. These games can easily erase the mistakes Gens 4 and 5 made in regards to Lance (both appearance-wise and Pokémon-wise) and set him right again.

You forget that two of the Gen 1 E4 members weren't in GSC/HGSS... Unless you want them to be scrapped from the rematch, which would make you a terrible person. >_>

I don't want to see the Orange Islands, just an island league of some kind. They could have access to the Sevii islands as a prize for beating all 16 Johanto gyms. Perhaps Lorelei will become a member of her home's league which might explain why she is gone, perhaps having Agatha join her.

Post game we could meet Karen and Will as they aim to be E4 members. Maybe we could have Lorelei contemplate about where she'll like to go after being at the near pinnacle of the Johanto regions' Pokémon league. It would be a moment of further character development for her.

I guess they could remove Salamence and Garchomp and give Lance Goodra and Hydreigon instead. Actually may not Hydreigon as it has a 4x weakness one is bad enough (he does have Gyarados though). If they make Mega Dragonite Dragon/Fairy or Dragon/Water that will eliminate his 4x weak members. So perhaps something like: Mega Dragonite, Goodra, Tyranitar, Haxorus, Sceptile, and Lapras (a gift from Lorelei before she left?)

Thanks, hun. ^^

I don't understand why you don't like 4th gen Lance. He looks older, but definitely not 50! {XD}

It's hard to give Lance a varied team considering there are few unique Dragon-type Pokémon that aren't legendaries. In the PWT he had an all-Dragon team but that wasn't necessary since he's a Champion and not a Dragon-type specialist in that tournament.

IMO Lance MUST have Gyarados and Dragonite. They're his most iconic Pokémon. He doesn't need an all-Dragon team either, so he could still have Charizard and Aerodactyl, and could also add Tyranitar (Lance has never had Tyranitar in the core series). He could also have Kingdra for the sake of being from Johto. There's six right there. Enemies in Pokémon don't need balanced teams, Blue and Cynthia notwithstanding.

Lance wasn't that easy in the Johto games, despite having a lot of Pokémon weak to Ice. Dragonite isn't easy to take down if you don't have advantage against it. I had a Draco Meteor Kingdra in HeartGold, but that's an oddity. {XD}

Yeah, but he's supposed to be this young, hot 20-something, not a middle-aged man. :P Plus, I hate his outfit, and they got his hair and eye color wrong.

And, even worse, only four of those non-Legendary Dragons aren't monotype, Dragon/Flying, or Dragon/Ground (not counting Megas)--Kingdra, Hydreigon, Tyrantrum, and Dragalge. Talk about awful diversity.

I'm 100% okay with giving him "pseudo-Dragons," so long as they know a Dragon move. I've always felt that Ampharos suited him well (and the TCG, apparently, agreed with me), and I think Serperior would be a good fit, too (even if it is a starter, but you never know).

As for actual Dragon types, I like Noivern and Dragalge the best for him. Kingdra is also nice, although it edges a little close to Clair's territory. I don't think any of the later Dragon Pseudos suit him, nor does Haxorus. (Tyrantrum is borderline.)

Maybe not in in HGSS, but in GSC, a Kadabra/Alakazam/Gengar with Ice Punch and Thunderpunch can make short work of him. (The last one also happens to be immune to his then-favorite move.)

I was actually going to suggest Ampharos earlier but I was afraid you guys wouldn't like the idea. I think Sceptile also matches Lance but Serperior fits his elegant style of dress (his HGSS one at least) better. It would be interesting if Lance got Charizard, Ampharos, and Sceptile on his team considering those three can Mega evolve into actual Dragon types. Those mons actually provide decent coverage as Charizard can be used to take down ice types while resisting Fairy types, Sceptile/Serperior can take electric attacks (which would K.O. Gyarados if he is to still have one, and Charizard too) as can Ampharos. It's too bad that Charizard is the only Fire Dragonoid mon that isn't Reshiram...as they would throw a wrench at Fairy and Ice type reliant teams.

Charizard, at least, would be a must for his Round 1 team, as well as either Ampharos or Kingdra (depending on which one's in the Regional Dex). No E4 member should be using dupes or NFEs, aka. Lance's Dragonair twins. The E4 is supposed to be challenging, and dupes/NFEs only make them easier. (One reason why Lorelei was, ironically, the hardest of the four in RBY. She was the only one whose team didn't have dupes/NFEs.)

As for the rematch, either Sceptile or Serperior would be fine, as well as Ampharos, Noivern, and Dragalge. He needs to have more Pokémon that aren't Flying types and cover his weaknesses better. (Which is hard to do with strictly Dragon types, as the type is extremely poor in diversity outside of Legendaries and Megas.)

Now that you mention that, Sindey is also similar to Lorelei in that he had no double mons like the rest of Hoenn E4 did (he wasn't the hardest though, most would probably say it's Phoebe or Drake).

Since remakes likely won't happen until next Gen there is a chance we may see some dragons with more unique dual types. Perhaps we'll see a Dragon/Steel type that isn't a legend. Also a Dragon/Fighting type would be awesome...but that's a bit off topic at this point.

Actually it'll be pretty cool if Lance's rematch team had Charizard, Feraligatr, and Sceptile (especially if the second one also gets a Mega that is part dragon type) as we have yet to see someone with a starter of each type outside of Red.

Well, a lot of that was because Hoenn's Dark types were extremely underpowered in RSE; Dark was still a Special type, and they were all Physical attackers. (Something that also benefited Phoebe, despite her otherwise poor team.) The fact that RSE was when Fighting started to get good (*cough*Brick Break*cough*) also didn't help his cause.

Lorelei, on the other hand, completely reaped the benefits of RBY's mechanics (especially in Yellow, which had better movesets). Fighting types were garbage and had low Special bulk, the only STAB Rock attackers were slow Rock/Grounds who also had bad Special bulk, Fire didn't resist Ice (giving Charizard and Moltres a nasty weakness), Steel didn't exist, Blizzard had 90% accuracy, Psychic was broken (Slowbro and Jynx), and Amnesia was broken (Slowbro). Making matters worse was the fact that the game's strongest Electric attacker was, itself, weak to Ice (although it, at least, had good Special bulk). And, no, the Yellow Pikachu wasn't going to beat Lapras without extreme overleveling (which wasn't the easiest thing to do back then).

Meanwhile, both Bruno and Agatha were 100% weak to the games' most broken type, and Lance's Pokémon were all either extremely frail (Dragonair and Aerodactyl) or had a nasty 4x weakness that was easy to exploit (Gyarados and Dragonite). Only Blue provided a real challenge after Lorelei.

Since remakes likely won't happen until next Gen there is a chance we may see some dragons with more unique dual types. Perhaps we'll see a Dragon/Steel type that isn't a legend. Also a Dragon/Fighting type would be awesome...but that's a bit off topic at this point.
Dragon needs more type combos, in general. Anything but Dragon/Flying and Dragon/Ground, please. (And, no, not just on Legendaries and Megas.) Seeing as three of the four "unique" non-Legendary Dragons (ie. Kingdra, Hydreigon, Tyrantrum, and Dragalge) were introduced after Gen 4, I do have hopes that GF is starting to improve on this. (I think the existence of Fairies certainly helps... There's now less of a pressure to give every Dragon a 4x Ice weakness because more things can deal with them.)

Actually it'll be pretty cool if Lance's rematch team had Charizard, Feraligatr, and Sceptile (especially if the second one also gets a Mega that is part dragon type) as we have yet to see someone with a starter of each type outside of Red.
That could be interesting. Lance used a Feraligatr in Stadium 2, so there's a precedent for him having one. I really want Feraligatr's Mega to be part-Dragon just so it can form a "Dragon Starter Trio" with Charizard and Sceptile.

Don't forget that there were no STAB Dragon moves to speak of in Gen I for Dragonite to benefit from...and I'm not sure if Lance's Dragonite even had flying moves for at least flying STAB.
I would love to battle Lorelei in the originals then, sounds like a challenge that hasn't existed in the games in a long time.

That's my hope too, it would be great to see a Dragon Mega Starter of every type.

If GF has Silph Co. develop the Pokegear a few years earlier (for the Kanto re-remake's time) then what features would you like to see added? Should they expand the radio feature of the device to work like the Hoenn, and Sinnoh sounds of HGSS' Pokegear? With mons that aren't common or native popping up?

Dragonite literally had no STAB in RBY. It didn't get Wing Attack until GSC (and even then, Wing Attack only had a paltry 35 BP in RBY), and it couldn't even learn Fly! That really defanged it a lot.

You should play Yellow sometime. It's, in many ways, the hardest Gen 1 game (counting both RBY and FRLG). Lorelei was undoubtedly at her toughest there, having both RBY mechanics and better movesets (over RB) at her advantage. (For example, her Slowbro had a near-competitive moveset of Surf/Psychic/Withdraw/Amnesia. Amnesia was a VERY broken move in RBY thanks to how stats worked back then, making that Slowbro extremely dangerous if you didn't immediately kill it.)

That's my hope too, it would be great to see a Dragon Mega Starter of every type.
And, since Feraligatr is the only Water Starter that would make sense as a Dragon, it's the most obvious choice. {:3}

I'd have it be a slightly more pared-down version of Gen 2's PokéGear, such as the radio function only being used for swarms (with the Hoenn/Sinnoh/Unova/Kalos Sounds being unlocked as soon as you get the National Dex; Gen 2 Pokémon, on the other hand, would just automatically start appearing in the places they were located in GSC/HGSS Kanto).

The Phone would include the numbers of important NPCs (including every Gym Leader and E4 member) and would serve as both a means for scheduling Gym Leader rematches (as well as other time-based events) and as a much more functional replacement for the Fame Checker. The VS Seeker would still return for regular trainer rematches.

Yeah, Feraligatr is the only one that makes sense as Water/Dragon, which means that if it ends up pulling a Blastoise or a Gyarados it'll ruin any chance of a starter dragon trio...unless if Gen VII (or way down the road) has a water dragonesk starter that is or Mega evolves into Water/Dragon.

Perhaps they'll fuse the VS seeker and the Pokégear, with the device sending out the same frequency waves the VS. Seeker does, but can only be used for quick on the go battles, instead of scheduling one far away, or with Gym leaders and the like.

Btw do you guys think GF will make a new character who is interested in the legends of Kanto? Kanto legendaries lack backstory (we aren't even sure if Lugia is really the Bird's Trio Master or if TR really made Mewtwo as thus far that's been extra canonical stuff) and has no who is into them. Johto myth has Eusine, Hoenn's has Steven, Zinnia and to some extent Wallace, Sinnoh's has Cynthia and Rowan, Unova has Mr. Juniper, Kalos has...well no one outside of the villains (which Hoenn-Unova myths also have as specialists)...

Extra canonical stuff that could stand to be canonized in the games once and for all, IMO.

I'd like to see Lorelei play that role in regards to Lugia and the Bird Trio, since their main story would be in the Orange Islands (where she's from), and it would give her character some much needed development. (It could also pave a way for her to return in new Gen 2 remakes instead of vanishing into thin air like she did in GSC/HGSS.) She'd also have close friends in both Lance and Prof. Ivy as backup.

As for Mewtwo, I'd like to see both Mr. Fuji and Silver involved with it. Explain that Fuji was unknowingly hired by Team Rocket to help create a new "super Pokémon," but he renounced the project as soon as he discovered their intentions and Mewtwo started lashing out (resulting in the destruction of Cinnabar Mansion). Later on, a young Silver strikes up a bond with Mewtwo (both being abused and neglected by Giovanni), and he follows Mewtwo off to Cerulean Cave. After you catch/defeat Mewtwo, Silver runs away, and he isn't seen or heard from for three years.

I'm not sure how I feel about Prof. Ivy being a character in the games...I rather they make Malva be Lorelei's sister and have her play whatever role you have in mind for Prof. Ivy. Also it's funny that you bring up Lance and Lugia together as the only extra canon those two have popped in together is in Pokemon Special when evil Lance tried to summon it himself. Perhaps we could get something similar to Archie and Jirachi, like Lance (and his friends) met Lugia when he was younger.

It would love to see a kid Silver...but that scenerio kind of makes the PC look like a bully, trapping the Kid's friend...

If you're going to have the Orange Islands, then you might as well have her. If not, then you might as well go back to having the Sevii Islands.

As for Malva, I'd want to do something else with her, as she's supposed to be evil.

Also it's funny that you bring up Lance and Lugia together as the only extra canon those two have popped in together is in Pokemon Special when evil Lance tried to summon it himself. Perhaps we could get something similar to Archie and Jirachi, like Lance (and his friends) met Lugia when he was younger.
This scenario took no influence or inspiration from Adventures (where Lance is a completely different person), whatsoever. I'd just say that he heard stories of Lugia while growing up in Johto, and the Pokémon always fascinated him.

Well, it wouldn't have been the first time the PC looked like a bully, and it makes for a good story.

I mean as a reference that GF can make like how Archie being connected to Jirachi seems to
be.

Then, we can have an overhauled Sevii (complete with its own League) and a Suspiciously Similar Substitute for Ivy, instead.

Like, when you crush Blue's dreams of being Champion before his grandfather (who already favors you over him) can even get there to congratulate him. Sure, Blue's a jerk, but that's a pretty mean thing to do, too. :P

I'd have it be a slightly more pared-down version of Gen 2's PokéGear, such as the radio function only being used for swarms (with the Hoenn/Sinnoh/Unova/Kalos Sounds being unlocked as soon as you get the National Dex; Gen 2 Pokémon, on the other hand, would just automatically start appearing in the places they were located in GSC/HGSS Kanto).

The Phone would include the numbers of important NPCs (including every Gym Leader and E4 member) and would serve as both a means for scheduling Gym Leader rematches (as well as other time-based events) and as a much more functional replacement for the Fame Checker. The VS Seeker would still return for regular trainer rematches.
If Silph Co. were to develop and release the PokéGear earlier due to the ΩR/αS/X/Y timeline's more advanced stage of technological development, then I'd like to see it implement a merged version of the feature sets made available to players by FR/LG's Fame Checker; the 'Time,' 'Map,' 'Phone,' and 'Radio' functions of G/S/C/HG/SS's PokéGear; the PokéNav's 'Map,' 'Condition,' and 'Trainer's Eyes'/'Match Call' functions; the PokéNav Plus's 'AreaNav,' 'DexNav,' 'PlayNav,' and 'BuzzNav' apps; at least some, but maybe all, of the Pokétch's apps; the C-Gear's 'Xtransceiver,' 'Game Sync,' 'Feeling Check,' 'Tag Log,' and 'Survey Radar' functions; Generation VI's Player Search System; and the P✬DA's e-mail and 'Strategy Memo' apps. I'd like to see all of these devices' mentioned features integrated in a way that makes sense, though. The clock should be small, resizable, or relocatable, and all of the map-, in-game– and inter-player–communication-, and news-related features grouped together somewhat logically. It would be cool if whatever 'PokéDevice' appears in the R/G/B/Y/FR/LG remakes would just replace the information-related items that have occupied the in-game menu up until now. I've always thought that there should be some kind of connection between the PokéDex and the list of Pokémon in your party, and it seems to me like some of the details listed in the latter could only be available to view in-game if your PokéDex contained some kind of internal medical scanner like the ones from Pokémon Adventures do. An additional link to DexNav-like features would also be greatly appreciated. And I think that your Trainer Card and badges should be represented in-game by data transferred to your PokéDevice from them by internal RFID chips, although it would still make sense for somebody living in the games' universe to store some kind of trainer ID method with their physical badges! But I suppose that such an extensive overhaul of the in-game menus probably wouldn't be appropriate for Kanto remakes unless it were to be done prior to their release in some main-series games featuring a new region, wouldn't they?

Then, we can have an overhauled Sevii (complete with its own League) and a Suspiciously Similar Substitute for Ivy, instead.



Like, when you crush Blue's dreams of being Champion before his grandfather (who already favors you over him) can even get there to congratulate him. Sure, Blue's a jerk, but that's a pretty mean thing to do, too. :P
I would like that. Maybe it should be a mini league with three gyms, those being Fairy, Dark, and Ground/Other as those types are missing in the Gen II games and their remakes, so it'll be a nice reference. I guess they could add more, but those can be based on accuracy and other stuff like that rather than type alone.

Four gyms based on different playstyles would be better, IMO. Like, have a gym that's based around double battles, or stall.

Double Dark, Triple Ground, Rotation any type, and Single Fairy maybe?
I'd leave the type specialties out (especially Ground, which does have a specialist in Gen 1). I'd do Double Battles, Triple Battles, Rotation Battles, and Inverse Battles.

Yeah, but it's kind of replaced in Gen II, I guess me wanting it to be ground is in hopes of the league appearing in a GSC re-remake too...but then again Blue is also any type. I hope that GF introduces yet another new type next Gen (hopefully Sound, with Jigglypuff being retconned to Sound/Fairy).

Hell, no. :| We don't need any more types right now, especially not something as fanficcy as "Sound" (which is almost as bad as the infamous "Light" type).

Fairy was predicted by fans (including me) prior to Sylveon being confirmed as such. Fairy is basically the light type by another name anyways...

Anyways back on topic perhaps the Sevii islands will have a Battle Frontier insteead of gyms, yet once one beats all of them for the first time we get to Battle the Frontier champion. Sadly a BF and/or an extra league both seem unlikely given the shift of focus to competitive play.
