    Inside this Pokeball is a Cloyster which will clamp to yo... nevermind. :P

    So we all know the standard gameplay of Pokemon. Walk around, battle people and grow stronger in order to be the best like no one ever was. But what if the gameplay was different. What if, instead of the game being your standard RPG game, that it was focused around the Racing genre, or the FPS genre. Questions which will always baffle us.

    If Pokemon was a different genre of gaming, what would it be and how would it play out?

    If I had to choose Pokemon to take a totally different path, I'd make it take more Portal 2, cross with a similar feel to Pokemon Ranger. Like, you would have to capture Pokemon using their weaknesses and just other things, and then you could use their power in a sense of clearing through puzzles, which in this case would be forests and caves etc. Gym leaders would reward you for clearing a gym battle, which would be a puzzle, while fighting their Pokemon at the same time or something.
     
    I'd like to see Pokemon take on a fighting/roleplaying genre where you run around catching Pokemon like always but when you start a battle it becomes like Super Smash bros and the Pokemon fight in that style.
     
    For the lulz, I think that Pokemon could be a racing game. It'd be fun to see Pokemon battles on motorcycles.

    I'd love if Pokemon was like the 'Tales' gameplay. xD;
    That would be so wacky, but awesome.
    The trainer does not appear in battle, as usual. But you're allowed to have 4 Pokemon out, playing as one. Yeah, you get it if you've played any of the Tales game. xDD;;
     
    Mario style?? XD
    Pikachu trying to save Princess Clefairy/Buneary/Pachirisu from Meowth? That'd be epic!
     
    Ive always wanted a 3d fighting kind of game, you still are only liminted to 4 moves but you attack useing combos of the specific pokemon, items are preset between different pokemon *if they are alowed in that fight* and you can set up to 4 different ones.

    Each move would have its own effect like tackle could be used as a short range chargeing physical attack while take down they wuld like run at you, double team could actually produce images of your pokemon.

    This would take ALOT!!!!! of work but it would just be amazing!

    i disagree with all of you. they should have pokemon rockband with jigglypuff and pikachu and all the cool guys, nd then random pokemon are in the audeince and then to get legendaries you challenge them to a battle of the bands
     
    I've always imagined if Pokemon were to migrate properly to console gaming, that it'd turn into more of a Zelda-ish game, in terms of gameplay. For one thing, there'd be rid of the turn-based RPG-ness of it, and instead become more naturalistic, so to speak. I don't know how well it would work, but that's what I've always imagined it to be like.

    That being said, Pokemon Kart does sound all sorts of awesome!
     
    POKEMAN!
    A munchlax runs around a maze containing different coloured Gastly's and eats Oran berries.
     

    Pokemon Modern Warfare.


    I'd personally like to see a decent RPG based around Pokemon, in the style of the Final Fantasy saga.
     
    I would like to see a Pokemon kart game, either just going around laps or going around the game world. (Hijack cars, possibly? Pokemon GTA!) Or perhaps just battles.

    Heh, nice Saw reference, Alternative. =p
     
    Perhaps.....how about something like Luigi's Mansion or Amnesia: The Dark Descent? Except with Pokemon, and not Boos or Gatherers and other stuff. That would be something quite fun to play.
