I was just thinking of the my yellow version while taking my pikachu around with me in amity square and thought about how cool it would be if you were allowed to take certain Pokemon out to run around with you. I really liked that about yellow version and thought it would be cool if they brought that back to the newer versions of Pokemon. I mean you probably wouldn't have some ginormous groudon or Palkia following you around, but if they had a certain height requirement like Lucario's size and smaller, Probably excluding legendaries. So what is everyone else's opinion on this? For me, I would be ecstatic if they brought this back.

i think it would be pretty cool, but they would have to make strict requirements of pokemon that you would be allowed to have run around, and some people would probably get annoyed that dialga cant run around behind them.

I liked yellow version for it, but I personally think it should only be in yellow version, because Yellow was a game based off the anime more then any other (like how you start off with Pikachu and eventually have the chance at getting Bulbasaur, Squirtle and Charmander the same ways as Ash did in the anime. Also, Pikachu was the Pokemon to follow you outside it's ball because that's as it did in the anime, but nobody else does that in the show, making it sort of wierd I think. And, Yellow is known for the unique part of it, and if it was put into another yellow would not be special in anyway...
Plus, if you had you Lucario out walking with you it's legs would be tired by the time it got to battle, making you lose, horribly.

I think it would be cool, I would also like it if you could surf with a pokemon behind you or even choose who you surfed on.

Or rather SinnohChampion, The pokemon that you surf on is the one in the water. You tell Sharpedo to surf, you are surfing on a sharpedo. If you tell blastoise to surf, then you are surfing on a Blastoise. But to also have a pokemon follow you around like in yellow would be kinda cool.

that couldnt be true Auzzie because in yellow Pikachu was absolutley fine. And besides if you get that into the physics of it, then technically you shouldnt be allowed to use a feild move with a feinted pokemon

Pokemon as I imagine them should be in better shape than people. I personally run 40 to 60 mile weeks and do karate. I could walk all day and all night if I didn't have to sleep so Im pretty sure any Pokemon would be fine especially one as agile as lucario.

Exacly. Anither wierd thing I noticed that couldnt possibly be true is how can you fly in an underwater battle? Or send a fire Pokemon out to battle while surfing?

The whole surfing battle thing really annoys me - why on earth does it allow the release of something like a Diglett into water? I think there should be limitations to that - just like having a stupid Goldeen battle when it is away from water - makes no sense at all.

They wouldnt do that though. I mean Pokemon has always been like that, you couldnt limit that. Something that i personal think would be cool is that you have a town in the sky some how. Sounds crazy yes but if you can move around while surfing, why cant you have an area where you can ho ponto your bird and fly around alittle bit and meet flying pokemon in the middle of the air. that sounds kinda cool

If they became stricter on the battles, strategies would then become harder. C'mon Pokemon are creatures that do impossible things, I'm sure its not that hard to create impossible scenarios.

Do you know how annoying it'd be to be limited to water pokes while surfing? You'd have to use Water dual-types or get a good Hidden Power to actually do anything. The Waters in your party would also be over-leveled. Plus, you might even have to have two waters so that the one you're surfing on doesn't knock you off, if we want to be so realistic.
It's a VIDEO GAME, they bend physics and life for convenience for us.

You know what would also be really cool is if you could ride a Pokemon like rapidash or the three dogs or other Pokemon of the same body type. then you could scale up rocky mountains without having to use rock climb and you could lose the bike with the annoying music. what would also be cool too is if you had races in the game between other trainers. whether it be surfing, riding, or flying on a Pokemon. It would definitely bring more variety to the game and be a nice break from just killing other Pokemon all of the time.

Instead of those animations, Pokemon battles would look cooler if it was like the anime and Pokemon Stadium, but then again that was the originality between the games.

Speaking of anime, I was always disappointed that the stadium type games never embraced cell shading type technologies. I'd appreciate it. The graphics need an update anyway.
It's already next gen.

yeah, this generation seemed like they just copied and pasted from the old games. I was really hoping that for diamond and pearl that they would have made the battles more interesting because the two stationary pictures of Pokemon fighting each other gets old after the first three games previous to this one...

That would be cool. But that means they could run away too.

The size restriction is an easy one to pull of... if it's dungeon sprite is bigger than one square, you cant use it.
What i think they should do is make diferent areas make different moves stronger, surfing? water, forest? bugs and birds, grass... well, you get the idea
one question i have is why would making better graphics of the pokemon make it where they can run away?
I also think that the visual effects of weather should stay while choosing and performing moves, and have a field effect for pokemon with weather abilities (drought, drizzle, sandstream, and snow warning)
Plus, wouldn't it be neat in the 3d games to see evidense of stat moves, use agility and your Pokemon animations are faster, use growth and your Pokemon bigger, double team, and theres two. (ok, maybe the last is a bit excessive, if you did that six times you would have 2^6 or 64 copies of the pokemon)

Here's what I want to see in a Pokemon game:
(an excessive example)
Gyarados VS Diglett
Gyarados uses Bite..... AND ACTUALLY HAS THE ENTIRE DIGLETT IN ITS MOUTH!
...

...

On Topic
The idea of a Pokemon following you for the whole game does nothing to help the game. Pokemon Yellow is really the only game that it worked for.

Doesn't help the game, put is still fun... esp if you bond with pokes...
It also makes the field effects of Special Abilities make more sense. If it's your first pokemon thats following you, that's why it's taking effect, cuz it's the one not stuffed in a ball.
I've always thought this is what was supposed to be happening, they just didn't show it.
off topic: hehe drifloon uses minimize a few times and is now smaller than castform

One of the funnier things I like is when you are on a boat and you make one of your pokemon use Dig.
Crack!! Splinter!! Glug Glug!!
There goes the ship.
Also, using an electric attack while surfing or diving would undoubtably kill all marine life in a 2 mile radius. And using Earthquake inside a cave would set off a cave-in burying you alive.
Pokemon is full of ridiculous impossibilities that could never occur in real life(or if they did it would be extremely painful and destructive), but that is one of the reasons it is so enjoyable, scorching your foes pikachu to a tasty, char-broiled mousekebab is something you could'nt do in reality without getting picked up by the RSPCA.

I was really disappointed when I discovered we could only use nine Pokemon. NINE Pokemon! Out of four hundred and ninety-three, NINE. Nine stupid ones on top of that. Why isn't my favourite Luxray considered cute, or even its prevo Shinx? They should at least let more Pokemon in. I can think of at leas 20 more Pokemon that could be considered cute, and making all those sprites can't be THAT much trouble.
