I would REALLY love having a character deisgn system in future gameboy games. You could make it boy or girl, change color of hair/skin, and mix clothing for a dream outfit. Eyes and Age of character wouldn't be included, since the eyes are too small and the characters in Pokemon never age. Anyway, I think this is cool.

I would like:

Visible day/night to return
More -lutions (grass, rock, ground, steel, ice, flying...)
More ways to evolve (for the eeveelutions, for example, if an Eevee gets to level 30 at grass, it evolves to its grass evo, in rocky terrain, to its rock evo, etc.)
Secret base dolls for every pokemon (well, maybe not EVERY, but many).
Rematch gym battles and elite 4 w/different and higher level pokemon. (like (as i've seen on some pages) in Emerald)
A sort of PokeNav + PokeGear thingy with features such as: clock, map(s), radio, rematch ...eh... center (as in trainer's eyes or cellphone), ribbon manager, etc.

I'd also like Dr.DoubleDuel's idea of character design.

Plus, NO "Nintende-Event", "E-Reader", or "

Day/night, and weather sequences
Customisable characters
More to the game after the Elite Four
More Pokemon ^_^

I'll take everything Snowball just said, plus I'll add in that I'd like for the Crystal menu features to come back, but with the VS Trainer item in addition to the phone.

i would like to see pokemon that doesn't look like they have been made just to 'make up' numbers, as in Ruby/Sapphire

I want to customize my character! The shirt color is ugly.

i would like pokemon that nintendo/gamefreak/whatever actually asked us to make/have ideas about. i think that way, the pok

Hi everyone! I'd like to see a few things.

1. Have Handicap Battles (3 on 1, 5 on 3, 3 on 2, etc.) sorta like wrestling
2. More Pokemon in your party at once! (Maybe about 10)
3. More moves at once (maybe 7 or 10)
4. Certain items that change the colour of your Pokemon (for example, Blaziken with blue fire)

That's all I can think of, at any rate.

a thing where you control your pokemon in the fight and move it around and make it dodge and such!

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of moves such as Double Team? And what if both opponents are doing nothing but dodging all the time? It would make battles too time consuming and PP-wasting.

<font color=ACEACE>This is topic is being moved to the Pokemon Diamond and Pearl section, since there is one now.

A MMORPG, a-la FFXI, (You know, one with an actual story, rather than just killing to get a high level). And maybe jobs, like breeder, Mart owner, and stuff. Like you could open up Newbie Zone (kinda like Safari) where they can catch level 5 starters (Not just the typical Water, Grass, Fire). But to keep it open, you would have to catch them yourself, or chase them into your Zone. Something more varied and stuff. Plus, I've always wanted a Pokemon game that was more like the anime, where you can dodge with Agility, or basically just move your Pokemon when you want.

What do you guys think they'll be using the double screen for?

Maybe a map on the bottom or the bottom screen is where u chose your attack and the top screen is where u see the pokemon and the animation.

where you can use the pen and the pads to help contrl your character

The game could have:
All pokemon catchable in one version of a game. (inclucing Mew, Cebiri, Jiruaui, and Dexoys)
Day and Night
Pokegear: Cell Phone, Raido, Map, Time, Trainer Eyes, etc.
All the regions ever made. (like Kanto, Jonho, Hoenn, Orre, and a new region)
Pictures back to Gold and Silver, no 3D. (I think Gold and Silver's 2D pictures looks better.
An hideout which you could let out your pokemon to play.
Your lead pokemon follows you around.
Bigger storeage space.
Pokemon contests are back.
Indefide pokeblock feeding. (I like watching my pokemon eat the blocks happily.)
Ablely to play with your pokemon when they are breeding.
Pokemon hunger meter with pokefood. (I think you should keep them as pets, too.)

Well, that my list of ideas!

1. It's Celebi, not Cebiri; Jirachi, not Jiruaui; and Deoxys, not Dexoys.
2. I'd love that too, but sadly, Nintendo is a greedy company that makes you buy E-Readers, Link Cables, GBA-GC Cables, 5 to 7 Pokemon Games, a Game Cube (if you don't have one already) and go to New York or another place to get all Pokemon.



1. The storyline would be too long.
2. It's just not very likely.



That's not what Pokemon is about. If you want that, get Tamgotchi.



COOL, COOL, COOL!

(I don't know why, but I like rating people's ideas.)

well, these'd be ideas that'd take advantage of the DS capabilities
- a more detailed battle screen on top, with HP and menus on the touch screen
- Wifi battling (in effect making online play)
- super revamped attacks (come on, there's no way that with the DS's capabilities, that you CAN'T make one sprite run up to and physically hit another. Not "Pow" marks. An honest punch/kick/tackle
- minigames using the touch screen, and your pokemon are used (Like in the stadium games), and can maybe gain happiness from them.
- A bigger world (again, from GBA games to DS is a huge technological leap. You can make a larger world, Nintendo)

Basically, Nintendo should keep doing what they're doing, and just improve certain areas (namely graphics and features) to make good use of the DS's capabilities.

most of the ppls suggestions here sound like sims (and thats just boring) ....

There could be a happiness meter. And maybe the Shadow Pokemon will come back, and you would have to beat the trainers to get the pokemon. There could be always double battles and you start with a male raichu and a female pikachu. Later in the game, you would find espron and umbrorn. And then you will find the 9 starter pokemon, as wild pokemon.

Edit: I hope they have all three regions in the game, I think you should start in Johto. It's my favorite region.

I have a few ideas of my own for the Pearl and Diamond games.

1. You start off with a choice of 6 starting characters, 3 male and 3 female (I know it really isnt all that important but people do like to make those sort of choices).
   


2. A new Pokemon type - Light (Strong against Dark, Weak against Psychic).
   


3. Instead of starting off with a choice of Fire, Water or Grass Pokemon, you start off with Light, Dark and Psychic.
   


4. The creators of Pokemon should have a competition for people to create new Pokemon and/or Moves. The winner(s) will get their name in the game credits, win a limited edition of the GBA and both new games and their 15 mins of fame.
   


5. Pokemon centres should also have beds so you can speed through time by Napping (Time moves forward by 4 hours) or going to Sleep (You wake up the next morning).
   


6. You can go somewhere in the game where you can regain any lost Level Up moves your Pokemon had lost.
   


7. There should be no more crappy Pokemon (eg Unown).
   


8. Any Pokemon that normally needs to be traded to evolve can now be 'traded' without needing access to someone elses GBA.

<font color=ACEACE>The only thing I really want is the ability to create a multiply amount of files on the one game. And possible trade between them, but that is asking for a bit much.

My sentiments exactly. I, for one, enjoy playing the games several times, and because the each cartridge only allows you to store a single file, I have to erase the existing file just to overwrite it with another file.

Regarding Dark_Paper_Magician_Girl's 6th point, there is already a way to learn moves that your Pokemon has forgotten when levelling up: The Move tutor. And regarding Mr Saturn's suggestion that the Pokemon should be able to punch/kick or do physical attacks, wouldn't that give a huge advantage to Pokemon like Onix, which can simply crush smaller opposition?
