From the trailer, I think the overworld graphics could be better, the characters at least. but the battles are looking awesome.
starters, once again, looks... eh... I'll be using the fire starter again like always

Reveal a new Pokemon: "Why didn't they just remake __/__?!"
Reveal a remake: "Another remake? It's like they're too lazy to even rehash now."
Every main series Pokemon reveal ever.

Now that it's full 3D I hope they add a few things that are easier due to it.
Like if the full mirror shot of your character at the start is a hint at character customization it would be great.

Since this is on the 3DS, I wonder if we're going to get a Poketard Flood asking for working roms and emulators. That would be hilarious.
Oh. We will definitely get those, regardless of whether the 3DS is piracy-enabled or otherwise. And it won't really be half as funny after the first 778163256464526547472 threads. TT^TT

:O
They made it like that so my girlfriend can get into other genres of gaming (she's a huge pokemon lover, and it's hard to get her to play anything else :P )
I like it. And I'll have her playing SMT games soon enough :P

[removal of random battles in place of "enemy icons"]
NO, if this happened, then the zubats would have no purpose, since you can run from then in a cave

Nothing stopping certain enemies from not falling into that, however every game I have ever encountered has been improved immensely by the removal of random battles and introduction of "optional" ones.

The only thing that would make this game the best thing ever would:
-Be a MMO
- You actualy see the pokemon in the grass, so you can avoid or can go to the wanted pokemon
- Fix the Breeding Bugs
- Scither, charizard and every single pokemon with wings now can fly!
- You can ride your pokemons outside battles
- You can fly anywhere with your pokemons (flyf feelings)

I don't honestly think pokemon would work as an mmo, at least not in its current form.
Also Charizard can learn fly and the whole Scyther can't fly thing is for balance reasons. As fun as things like that would be they have a metagame to keep balanced.

Caves followed different rules anyway. (Entire floor had encounters instead of just patches of grass). They could keep Zubats/annoyance Pokemon random encounters for areas like that.

Sorry, last time i got Charizard i played Red/Blue and when i learned it couldn't fly i never got him again.

POkemon could "evolve" to an mmo though.

The trailer says "breath taking 3D world".

All I see is something that looks somewhat a bit better than DQM: Joker 2 on the DS, looks like the backgrounds are fixed as usual so not really true 3D. Kinda low grade to me and I'm sure the 3DS could do better than that. I guess swinging on ropes is an improvement, you know if this was 1998.

Looks like another meh+ Pokemon game, to me Pokemon has gone from being a premier series to "Will this do? Oh who cares, the kids and Pokefags will buy two copies!".

Probably the first time I like all the starters. I also like the cel-shaded style they gave to everything. Can't wait until October, the wait is gonna be looooong.

    the legal drinking age here in the US is 21, as some of you may know, but i think either it should be 18 or the age you're an adult should be 21.

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's all good no one pays attention to the law anyway lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous
    +3
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    If someone is in the military they should be allowed to smoke and drink at 18.... Would help drive recruitment lol
    +3
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We all know they do and will anyways. I think laws prevented them only pushes them to illegally do it. Even tho if was legal, most prob wouldn't even bother. Not a big deal or risque if its legal, no fun.

  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    That's why some kids don't mind having a rap sheet or two just so they never get drafted
    +2
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also, i think the voting age should match the adult and drinking ages too, because by the logic of giving them time to mature and think rationally so they don't drive drunk, then they should also have that time to mature and think rationally so they can think for themselves

    because self deprecating humor is important, as long as it doesn't turn into self hate. because you can't really make fun of anyone if you can't even make fun of yourself
