Pokemon VS: Bring them to Our World

    I have been thinking, and have discovered something, that might change the video game Pokemon, and maybe even the whole Video Game world itself.

    Listen: Recently, Nintendo has developed a new way to transfer data: The Wireless Adapter. Think about it, wireless data can now travel across the air invisibly, to another GBA which will receive that information! Very useful, don't you agree?

    Now, I believe that this Invisible Information, (what I call II) doesn't supposedly have to go onto another GBA, instead, maybe to what I call RP, or Recieving Platform. Let's say that the RP can recieve II, just like another GBA? That seems useless though, it's just a platform! You can't play Pokemon on a platform, right?

    Bear with me, this is where it gets difficult to understand.
    The Pokemon VS(Visual Simulation)! A GBA designed to read specified Pokemon data. Instead of holding it with two hands, you strap it to your wrist, and press the buttons with your other fingers.
    But this is not like any GBA, the VS can only simulate battles. When you put Pokemon Fire Red or Pokemon Leaf Green, or new games that Game Freak has yet to produce, your current team of pokemon will enter battle mode, that is if only someone else with another VS ready and turned on is near you. Kind of like turning on your game right inside the Colliseum (spelt wrong) in a PokeCenter.
    Your battle will begin. On the VS, you can watch, but you can also watch it, in the real world.

    The WI will send signals to two different sources. It will send signals to the other VS, so the battle can commense, but also to the RP. The RP will read the same data that both VS's are sending, but will be able to build a holographic structure of the pokemon, and their designated moves! So as you battle on the VS, you can watch the battle while the pokemon stand on the platforms!

    But alas, it's not all that simple! We humans cannot see IIs! They're invisible! Unless of course, we put on the Goggles.
    The Goggles, *yet to have a name* are very important, because they allow you to see your Pokemon! You see, the Goggles have sensors on the sides of them, and can read the IIs. How do you ask?
    A long time ago, before Geocities, websites were very difficult to make! You had to start from scratch!
    <html><body> Like this. The Goggles (TG for short temp.) are able to read and produce these IIs, just like producing a website! So, they give you an image, a 3-D image of the II's, which the RP has built to make it look like a Pokemon.

    Do you get it now? With the VS, RP, WI, and TG, Pokemon battles can be brought to the REAL world!

    Now I'll show you a more detailed look at each item:

    Pokemon VS:
    As I was designing this on paper, I shaped it as more of a rectangle, like the GBs.
    VS's don't have all the buttons GBA's have, because these are designed for battle! As you watch the game screen, as you choose a move, you click the button corrosponding the move's position! That's right, there are 4 attack buttons,
    ()Attack
    ()Attack
    ()Attack
    ()Attack
    Ok? So let's say this:
    Ludicolo:
    Hydro Pump
    Strength
    Ice Beam
    Fake Out

    You want to use Ice Beam?
    Click the 3rd Attack button! And then you'll be able to use that move, and watch in the Real World.

    There's also a ()Switch Button, allowing you to Switch Pokemon in battle.

    RP:
    I gave you a very brief description last time, the RP can actually do more.
    First of all, I'm sure you're thinking that the WI's will get messed up, reading the other's RP, or just getting unorganized with all the different signals in the air.
    Actually, the RP has a few things that can fix that: Like a telephone, the side of the Platform will have numbers, 1234567890, and an Enter, and a Backspace

    1 2 3
    4 5 6
    7 8 9
    B 0 E
    (Backspace=B, Enter=E)
    All you have to do is type your ID Number, and the RP will only read signals from that #. But if you have more games, or you have a sibling that wants to play, you can put at the most 10 IDs in the RP's CPU.
    Also, I'm sure you're thinking: If the Pokemon only stay on the platform, how will they attack?
    Well, on the bottom corners of the RP, there will be scanners. The Scanners will read the ground level all around them. Let's say it's a little bumpy to the left, the RP will scan and read that, so when the pokemon moves, they will go up the bump instead of going through it! The scan will go as far as 10 feet.
    What about Rayquaza, Kyogre, and most importantly, Wailord?
    This might be the only problem for me, but I think I can fix that by making them small. It might be a little lame for a 10 foot Wailord, but it's the most I can do.

    TG
    I gave you a pretty good explanation before. All I can say more is that it has that fuzzy stuff, (can't recall what it's called) that sticks together whenever they go together.., you know, one side is furry and the other is scratchy? Whatever. The point is is that it can stretch and attatch to your head no matter what your head size. The Goggles's II reader are on the sides of the eye pieces., so you won't see the wires or gear in front of you.

    This is my creation, Pokemon VS. Maybe it's not possible currently, but in 1970 people would scoff at what I'm using right now, the internet.

    As I said before, this doesn't JUST have to be for Pokemon. The VS could also be used for Yugio possibly, or other 'cock fighting' type games for GBA.

    Please, if I didn't makes much sense, do tell! Also, tell me if you think it's a good idea or not.
    Thanks for the response! I'm thinking of sending this to Game Freak, and maybe they'll produce it!
    Thanks to all who respond
     
    Ummmm Interesting... But Basically Imposible...
     
    Very clever. Although it would be expensive (if not impossable) to make. That would make it expansive to buy. People won't buy expensive stuff, unlessit was just released. But, overall, very well thought out idea. ^^
     
    Hmm, yeah, I guess you're right. But maybe in the future this kind of technoligy will be cheaper...but did it make sense to you? I'm going to copy it and send it to Game Freak, all I need to know is if it makes sense or not.
     
    Great idea! I can't tell you how many times I've thought stuff like this, thinking, "Now, I know they can apply THAT technology...."

    I had a dream once, in which I was in a mansion, there were dozens of people wandering around, it was a lively atmosphere, and everyone was battling wirelessly, without even necessarily being in the same room as their opponent. (This was back in the days before G/S/C, so that was imaginative at the time.) The overall feeling was the same as I remember from the mall tours.... ah, the good old days....

    Of course it's expensive and Pokemon isn't the market to experiment with applications of that kind of technology. But even if there was the potential for a project of that scale, the technology doesn't quite exist. The goggle technology would have to be very advanced.... I'm not quite sure how they'd do it. There's 3D goggles for certain specially-filmed movies, but those require a special projector--even if they could insert the projector, I don't think they'd be able to project the images directly onto the Goggles, and still have the ability to simulate a 3D object with any semblance of reality. And Yu-Gi-Oh!-type stuff--three-dimensional holographic projections--definitely isn't quite here yet.

    Although I could be wrong on many of these things, of course--I'm not up-to-date on all the latest technology developments (I need to read SlashDot more! :P) . But, holography is one of those branches of science--like all VR actually--which you look at and think, "We can do X with that, can't we?" when X isn't quite there, actually.

    Technology just needs a slightly more efficient methodology in certain aspects (a quantum computer would be nice, for example ;) ) ; the gamer's market in growing, growing, growing! Maybe it won't be made for Pokemon specifically, but if there's a market for commercial space travel, surely there's a market for handheld/customizeable interfacing with MMORPGs (or even just peer-to-peer multiplayer RPG systems). I envision a future in which broadband is like health care--all the 'progressive' countries will provide it for every citizen (and it'll only be a small part of your taxes, too!). That is, unless biological/chemical/astrological calamities don't destroy mankind before all this can take effect.

    And as for HTML--hey, I make my web pages in HTML! Heck, I wrote my own web server program. HTML is far from dead. I mean, geez, there's XML, isn't there? And that's based off of HTML, and that's all over the place. Learn HTML: you'll never regret it! :D
     
    Veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery interesting. Just wondering though, so you're saying that the wireless adapter would send the info to the platform as you call it? That's a preaty good idea though,you should serriously think about sending that to gamefreak!
     
    Yeah, the info would go straight to the platform.
    I mean, if you can send info gba to gba, can't you send info vs to rp?
     
    Well, the idea is logical, but probably very expensive...
     
    Wow....that is truly remarkable...I sincerely wish it will become a reality! Great thinking!
     
    Thanks for the compliment Kim!

    Alright everyone, I need to know if I should send this to Gamefreak or not...someone has already told me I should, so that's one vote for yeah.

    Ya see, I really really need to know the hard facts about my product because I really want to make sense in front of the corporation.

    Thanks to all who responded and thank you in advance to all those who will respond!
     
    Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing that, but it'd probably be way beyond my price range. xD
     
    I see...so the high price would make it difficult...what do you think the average price would be?
     
    Hmmm....we are talking Back to the Future Part 4 and Total Recall 2070 here.:P
    All that's impossible! Even in high government organisations it will cost a lot, leave alone the common pokemaniac! The idea's good tho. Only problem : You should be posting that 50-60 years from now, not in 2004:P
     
    that would be great altough let me post some modifacations to its looks ok
    the bit with the butons should be the size of a hand held pc (the ones that are about 10cm on their longest edge), have 9 buttons (atk/pkmn1, atk/pkmn2, atk/pkmn3, atk/pkmn4, pack/pokemon5, switch/pkmn6, ok, cancel,) and plug into the projector like a usb keyboard.
    the projector should be like a skateboard but slightly smaller so it can fit into the average backpack/school bag

    average price range $300-$500 australian after about a year $100-$300 australian

    what you think there wouldnt need to be any need for the gogals (sp) although it may need something to limit the size of the hologram say you do it inside with doors closed and furniture out of the way otherwise it might interfeer with the hologram
