New battle feature

I just noticed how pokemon has always added from stuff to enhance the battling, so far we've had:

G/S/C: Able to hold items

R/S/E: Pokemon with abilities and double battles

So what features do you think will be added in the future games? I for one have no idea... and please don't say "Real time battling" Cuase it's not the battle system which will change, it's just a new feature will be added!

any ideas?

Hey! You're right...
But I'm out. :(
I suck at predicting. Maybe that's why I always lose in NetBattle.

It was mentioned in the new gameplay idea thread, but since it relates directly to this I'll mention it here. The Mysterious Dungeon games allow you to connect moves, for example scratch and leer. However, given how different their gameplay is from the core games I wouldn't say that there's any strong indication it will a part of the next generation. It is a possibility though that could provide for many different strategies.

Since the battle system is really the heart of the games for me I hope that they don't change it too much.

Well, I really can't think of any ways they could make battling better. I'd like to see Poke' evolutions during battle (spicing things up when you're down), but that's not really a battle feature. Maybe... ummm... I dunno.

I don't know exactly in which game it started where you could go back and battle the Elite Four and the Champion as many times as you want, but maybe in this game, when you become Champion, maybe other trainers will come to the Elite Four Building to try and become Champion themselves and would therefore have to battle you.

Edit: Another idea: What if in this game we can go on the S.S. Anne and travel to other regions (Kanto, Hoenn, Johto, and maybe even Orre). I mean we saw it and boarded it in FR/LF and saw a model of it in R/S/E.

They should add terrain advantages like when you're on grass,grass pokemon benifit with higher speed and stuff like that,;212;

^This isn't Yu-Gi-Oh!. While I get it'd make sense, and it is possible (rain + swift swim anyone?), I don't think it'd happen. If it somehow boosted the power/accuracy/effectiveness of a MOVE, depending on the type, then it's very possible. It'll probably be the new battle feature. I'm alright with it as long as the advantages are MINIMAL, and there are no disadvantages.

Dude, we should have the ability to counter-attack attacks. Such as Flamethrower a Razor Leaf. Or Ice Beam a Silver Wind.

okay, here's the good ideas so far:

1. Feild advantage (a grass pokemon can have an advantage in a grass feild, an Ice pokemon can have advantage in an ice cave/snowy area, a fire pokemon has an advantage near a volcano, and by being in these areas certain stats rise)

2. Same as above, only it boosts the move and not the pokemon itself

3. The connect moves thing from mysterious dungeon sounds like a nice touch

4.Equip multible items, Like the bigger the pokemon, the more items they can equiped (Big pokemon equip 3 items, medium pokemon equip 2 items, small pokemon equip 3 items)

5. Evolving during battle (Like let's say the trainer has a few pokemon left, your pokemon just beat one and leveled up, and now it's on the level which it can evolve. The pokemon evolves, and the opposing trainer then sends out the next pokemon, and the battle continues normally)

Maybe, we could go back to another region. like in gold and silver we went back to kanto. maybe in this one JOHTO! lol chyea... a boy can only wish :(

um, what does that have to do with the battle system? This is about the BATTLE system itself... How is THAT a new feature to battling? I ask you...

Sheesh, people, only post stuff that has to do with the battling system here! Post your "I want to go to an old region" Stuff in the gameplay ideas thread or something

chill out dude i thought you meant the games features...a great new battle feature would be SWITCHING OUT IN DOUBLE BATTLES! lol i hate that they dont let us...

WHERE IS PIDGEOT?!
yes they do...

anyways i would like pokemon to evolve mid-battle (why not in the first place?!) andwhen someone mentioned the mysterious dungeon combination thing, ihad an idea: perhaps moves could have combos, like they do in contests?! i know there are moves like sunny day, mind reader etc, but what about, for example, Pidgeot uses Double Team/Agility, and then uses Aerial Ace, causing Aerial Ace to be 50% stronger. or Volbeat uses Tail Glow and then Flash, and the opponent's accuracy is lowered double the amount it should, plus it gets to take advantage of Tail Glow's effect (cant think ofit right now) in two turns

combos from contests can be used as well, like water sport+water-type attack, etc.

^They need to incorperate that more, for all possible move combos. You can actually do that now, but all I know of is just one combo. There may be more. If you use Defense Curl, then Rollout, Rollout cuases way more damage.

"Foe is about to use "???", would you like to switch out?"

they dont ask us that...

I would like the enemy's Pokemon be able to level up against your own as well. It seems rather silly that they would not level up while your own Pokemon do. Hmm, perhaps this could add a much-needed facet of difficulty to the game....

But other than that I just would like to see that 95 base power Grass move for which we all pensively wait.

I too want to see enemy Pokes actually level up/evolve if they defeat your/enough of your Pokemon. There's no challenge in the game's battling except the Battle Frontier, which is still too easy.

I NEED that 95 BA, 100 ACCURACY grass move. I can't believe that they didn't have one back in R/B/G/Y. Photobeam anyone?
