DS's Features in D/P

You select thru all menus with the Stylus... Maybe ya have to give orders to yar Pok?mon by calling them... There are infinite possibilities, and we just have to wait...
 
it'd be cool if you could have timed battle commands with the mic, like how ash tells pikachu to use an attack at the same time as anothee pokemon's attack. i know this would take away the whole turn-based theme, but if it was limited ot only once per battle, that'd be cool as a like a "special" or something...at least i think so
 
if your trainer could be fully coustomisable... ie. clothes hair eyes... and things like that... you could even coustomize the way your pc is set up... and i mean like having it be like a pc and not like a inta storage device...
 
I don't know how Nintendo are going to incorporate the DS' new features, but they'd better do something with them. It'll probably just be using the stylus to make attacks, or something like that. I don't suspect there'll be major uses of the microphone or the touch screen or anything.
 
I would like an interactive pokedex on the touch screen during battles, and the other screen is like the normal one (you should be able to scan an enemy and get details before you catch it, then have really detailed descriptions once you catch one)
Out of battle it should be your bag, gear, etc.
 
That's the one thing I don't want to do. If I'm playing it in a street or something, the last thing I want is for people to hear me shouting out battle commands. Maybe if you could turn it off, then I wouldn't mind it XD
 
It would be great if we could have a screenshot of this... By the looks of it, this looks like it'll have N64 type of graphics, so maybe attacking will be like N64. With those graphics... I don't know, I just want to see real animations for attacks i.e a flamethrower really coming from the mouth. I think the graphics would be a bit overworld, but with a bit of an angle to it. (Like Harvest Moon for GC)
 
I'd like to see the touch screen used to make the battles more active. A bit like in Paper Mario 2, but not as reliant on it. Like maybe when the enemy Pokemon attacks, a small line/bar appears on the touch screen with a ball-type thing moving quickly from left to right on it, and if you touch the ball when it is directly in the centre of the bar, the attack misses.
Or when you attack you have to rub the stylus up and down the touch screen, and the more times you do it determines the ammount of damage the attack does.
 
I'd like to be able to actually tell the pokemon the Attack.Like "Pikachu Use Thunderbolt".It probobly won't happen but i'd like to see it.
 
You could use the stylus to choose where attacks are aimed (not ones like surf and blizzard, though) so hitting the opponent's weak spot isn't random.

I really like that idea. A Pokedex like in the show. For instance, if your opponent sends out a Pikachu, it would automatically switch to it. I would also like a map where when you are walking, it has city and/or town maps on half the screen, and an overall world map on the other. I expect that they will most likely put a map, as that is what most DS games have.
 
Designing a trainer would be nice, as you currently get stuck with someone:

#1. You hate the looks of, or
#2. Looks absolutely nothing like you, or
#3. Looks so much like you it is creepy
 
I would buy the game if it were lg for ds if they added the trainer customzation because that like changes the whole game for me.
 
I know that this is kinda off subject but, you already know the DS has a communication range of 66 ft. I saw a GBA SP wireless adaptor that had the comm. reach of 3 miles! I highly doubt this though, I'd have to see it myself.
 
i would love to have like a wanted level or something stupid like that, and a really indepth stoory line, like you had to join team rocket inorder to slove some random mystery
