I really hope I don't have to wait until DP remakes to get an uprgraded Poketch.
While we're at it, can I gave the quich menu from Gen V back? XY's d-pad layoutviw nice but only having 4 slots is too limiting.

Yeah it was pretty dissapointing how little advantage they took of the pedometer and streetpass in X/Y. Especially when they just made a game that used a pedometer

The only features in that list that are exclusive to GSC are Apricot Balls and Mother's Savings...

Just bring back the roaming Pokemon map on the bottom screen. I hate having to go into my Pokemon to look for roaming Pokemon.
This reminds me that I really want the DPPt pokeradar back... Such a great way to find new pokemon and shinies

Forgive my ignorance but what is wrong with the XY Pokeradar?

It would be better if they just got rid of roaming Pokemon completely.
Much harder to chain and more importantly no new pokemon can be found with it
Still looks loads better than Unova and Kalos. I think Hoenn and Sinnoh were the only regions I liked in terms of design.

This too.
Huh, it really is half water.
I never really noticed how little actual landmass there was to Hoenn. Tons of room for expansion, though.

Couldn't you actually get to the bonus Sevii Islands in Emerald? 8 and 9, I think?
It'd be interesting to see a Mt. Silver-styled postgame location above the ashy routes up north.

Much like in FRLG, these two last isles were only accessible with event tickets; Isle 8 had Lugia and Ho-oh (then unattainable anywhere else... where, as far as Lugia is concerned that is) and Isle 9 had Deoxys.

I'd just like a Battle Box that works like shortcuts or presets instead of a separate box. In other words, the six pokemon you have set to Battle Box can also be in your party when you're playing the single player game, or they can be in the PC. Either way, the party in the Battle Box is what shows up when someone challenges you and you pick Battle Box.

Looking at it, there's definitely room for additions to the map, like that whole middle part.

Where was the Battle Frontier?
Where Battle Tower was in RS.
Hoenn and Sinnoh are so gorgeous. They really epitomize what Pokémon means for me.
It's not shown there. In the in game map IIRC it was an island southeast of Pacifidlog,

I really want to buy a copy of platinum... I want to explore sinnoh over again but diamond was just so sluggish that I can't do it. Only game I've ever had to leave battle animations off in.
Platinum's a big improvement, but it's still slow as hell. You might just want to wait another 5-8 years for remakes.
Platinum for me, as a whole, is the greatest Pokémon game created. There's this great feeling of sentimentality and atmosphere that's reflected by the region and its music.
I feel like with Unova and Kalos they took a step backwards by not having any sense of purpose or personality exclusive to that game. Felt more like a collection of areas and themes instead of a whole. Feel like Kanto & Johto continent, Hoenn, and Sinnoh did that well. For the last two regions, I don't remember anything great about them.
There is a lot more to Pokémon games that battle speed, to me at least. It's why I can withstand some JRPGs while most people obviously can't I guess. It's about the game as a whole for me.
I think Platinum improves enough from DP that it warrants a purchase.
I discussed my sequel theory on my podcast. Even if it doesn't end up a sequel there will be megas somehow. Its here if anyones bored and wants to listen to pokeman discussion.

Ho-oh and Lugia were obtainable in gen 3 without events, but you had to get them from the 2 gamecube games (Colosseum had Ho-oh, XD had lugia)
True beauty.

It's actually confirmed not to be a sequel!
Yeah I know what they have said. I'm stubbornly refusing to believe it until I see more of the game. The discussion we had is mostly about how megas could be in the game. The sequel theory works best in my opinion for explaining that. Stuff will probably be retconned if they include megas and its not a sequel.
Stuff is going to be retconned regardless, they do it all the time in these remakes.
I know. I just feel like retconning megas in the timeline is going to far. The original game takes place years before X and Y. We imported mega stones sounds like crappy writing to me. I guess we will have to wait and see how they handle it. Megas could end up not being in the game I guess.
Or the super simple, "Blue Orb and Red Orb were always Mega Stones, we just had no way of using them."
This map brings me good memories and I played pokemon emerald only 4 years ago (never played ruby or sapphire) XD
Barnes mentioned that. You still would need a trainer with a keystone and a strong bond however. As far as we know.
