-Of course Eevee as your starter
-You can explore even more of Orre
-Dialga and Palkia are the main Shadow Pokemon
-Ardos is the new Grandmaster of Cipher
-Longer storyline that involves Cipher completely controlling the region
-The PDA has more features
-If you fail at catching a Shadow Pokemon, you can see it in the wild
-More Pokespots
More Orre, or another place in addition as well would be nice - and exploring the places inbetween towns and places! Routes people, routes!
OH NOES it be the P*DA. For we all know the * makes it what it is.
Instead of Pokespots though, I'd rather wild Pokemon ala GBA games - grass and the such! Pokespots just didn't quite work for me, really. Hav eit, say, after Orre as improved even further and a decent wild Pokemon population is back, and Orre is less desert-y?
Needs More Miror B. =]
Love the character,It wouldnt seem normal without him.
Quoted for truth.
This is a must - one can't repeat the series without repeating the guy with the hair and the music and the dance and the Ludicolos. Well, one could, but it wouldn't be quite the same.
-Option to pick where your main character is from: Kanto, Johto, Hoenn (or some other mix of 3 handheld regions), or Orre. Which one you choose will decide your starter. If Kanto, you'll start with Bulbasaur, select Johto and you'll get Totodile, Hoenn and you'll get Torchic, and selecting Orre will start you off with Evee, or something like that.
That I'm afraid would never happen, really. Firstly - memory is an issue. Four regions to choocse from, on top of 493 Pokemon and their movesets and graphics and all that jazz? Mehtinks no. Also - Nintendo wouldn't put all their eggs in one basket, but sell each one in their spearate games, making more money from each in total.
-Switch to single battles. Dobules make it harder to raise a team evenly, especially when you have Pokemon that level up at different rates. Although, having a co-op mode option, allowing two people to play through together(where both you and the person playing with you could only have up to 3 Pokemon each of course) might be nice
I disagree with no double-battles - although Genius Sorinity do seem to have a love affair with them. But Maybe soem more single, but have a lot of doubles as well - basically a more evn mix of the two. And I didn't think raising them in double was hard either, but that's me.
Co-op... maybe, but that too would take a fair bit, and I also doubt that happening...
-Giving the PDA more features, as someone suggested, making it more like the Poketch, sounds good.
Yup.
-A new way of purifying Pokemon (of course the others would still be there), perhaps base around something like Poffins or contests. The Poffin idea would be pretty similar to perfumes though (the better the poffin, the more it would purify the Pokemon).
ANOTHER way to purify? Meh, I also don't really like that idea - I find purifying to be easy really, and XD's multitude of ways are enough IMO. But matter of opinion - I just feel it isn't really needed - although another system similar to XD's purification machine could be done.
And Eevee-starter again seems viable, especially that if there is another Shadow game - and Genius Sorinity - people who made Colosseum, XD and PBR are looking the likely candidates for the next game as well, if made. And they might just go again with their ideas...
