    Okay, there weren't technically any lighthouses but remember those similar "statues" in Southeastern Slateport and Southeastern Lilycove? Yep, those are the "lighthouses".

    I was kinda irked how those lighthouses werent as similar as the Olivine one in Johto.

    What do you think, Should the lighthouses be accessible and bigger than in RSE? What would the player can do inside the lighthouses, Will there be any items hidden inside the lighthouses?

    Discuss!
     
    Took you long enough to think of an idea smh.

    I've long been wondering, why can't we access the lighthouses?
    Well, this is a remake, so maybe we might actually have access to it this time.
     
    Lighthouse could add extra content in the game, maybe give us access to stuff like Protector but... I don't see much use of that. It's just purely aesthetic for stressing on the fact that Lilycove and Slateport are the two main ports of Hoenn. So no, I don't see much in store for them.
     
    It'd be pretty nice if the one in Lilycove were expanded and freely accessible, like I said before in our chit-chat thread. There's not much things to see in Lilycove City, but Slateport, one the other hand, is not really like that; it's filled with a ton of things. It doesn't exactly need it. Maybe they could incorporate this into the storyline, somehow, and have either Team Magma or Aqua hide there and do whatever they feel. Perhaps they could take someone hostage--someone important, such as Steven--just so they would be able to get a hold of something that they'd like? You know, similarly to how these kind of things are done in movies and shows? :o
     
    I think it'd be cool if the lighthouses were accessible, but make them more like narrow lighthouses, where you only have a set of stairs or elevator to climb and you can look at the view/talk to a couple NPCs, some who might give out items. Slateport and Lilycove are already pretty bustling as is, so I can't really see them doing much to the lighthouses.
     
    I think it would make sense for there to be a big lighthouse in Hoenn, as it has more ocean accessible than Johto does. If anything, I could see them putting a couple trainers in there at most, but I don't think it'll be as big of a deal as Olivine's Lighthouse was.
     
    I think it would be a good idea to add some relevance to the statue in Lilycove, because there isn't too much to do in the city besides the department store. Like others have said, Slateport doesn't need anything of the sort because there's already a lot to do. It would be cool to make the statue in Lilycove a new area to battle Team Aqua in, or maybe reveal the whereabouts of a new legendary post-game.
     
    Nothing to do in Lilycove? Did everyone forget that contests are in Lilycove ;( ?

    Anyways I would love for them to be expanded. At least give them the Sinnoh light house treatment. Maybe we can see Mossdeep/Sootopolis (depending on which one we're looking from) and the rapids/dive spots in between.
     
    There are many houses you cannot enter into through the entirety of Pokemon's existance. Since they don't have a role to play I don't see why we'd need to enter them. Leave them as they were.
     
    Accessible lighthouses? Say that to Couriway's as well. P:

    Still, I doubt they'll expand it. If they do, probably only for a scenic purpose or a scenic view.

    I have to agree with this. As awesome as it would be to get more areas to explore, I don't feel the lighthouses are how Game Freak will add anything new. They were meant to be scenic from the get-go--it was kind of confusing to see such a detailed and large sprite with no real significance, especially after having an accessible lighthouse in gen 2, but all it was there for was to add to the environment. Either they will be enlarged to a more believable size, but not accessible, or they'll be enlarged and you can go inside to see the (magnificent) view. Having Trainers to fight there would be a cool addition, but I don't expect anything on the level of the Olivine Lighthouse (I'd happily take such an addition, though!).

    I hope we at least have the magnificent view. They could even make the stereoscopic 3D work for what we're looking at.

    Yeah, imagine seeing Pacifidlog, the tides, and possibly even the Battle Frontier and the Southern Island in Slateport's while you can see Mossdeep and Sootopolis in Lilycove's.

    Maybe they could add a little time event where at times, you can see the SS Tidal sailing off or returning in Postgame.

    That'll be cool. They did that with the ship in Unova being visible in some of the bridges.
     
    I don't know, maybe they could even add some trainers perhaps, help with the grinding and stuff? Actually that isn't a bad idea imo.

    Like I said before, it'd be a cool way to get items like Protector, the staple trade stuff and extra stuff. Maybe Team Aqua would try to capture it or something.
     
    The top of the lighthouse contains an Manectric that give you a Mega-Stone if you have a Manectric in your party.
