I made the thread about any feature that was ever featured in a mainline pokemon game, but did target Gen VI for the most part. For the sake of having more to discuss about it can be can be from any gen.

Battle Maison. Replace it with Battle Frontier.
The hand-holding and overall casualness.
Shit-tier rivals and "friends".

Also, not really features, but have Prankster activate immediately when Banette Mega Evolves and give Delphox a better movepool more like Mismagius.
>>
>>25054696
>Battle Maison
Its obvious Maison wont return since its a 6th gen thing just like Subway was a th gen thing. But another version of battle tower will return

Triple battles and rotation battles.

Sky battles are the reason Pokémon like Xatu and Tropius got screwed out of decent battle animations. Fuck them.
>>
>>25054395
Honestly, sky battles were a good idea, but implemented fucking horribly, largely because GF is literally the laziest video game company in the world.

What they should have done was make seperate flying models for Pokémon that could participate in sky battles, and also not be retardedly selective with the whole 'we didn't make a sky battle model for your bro so he can't participate'

Hawlucha hasn't even made it through one full gen and GF already hates the shit out of it.

Dumb frogposter.

the whole dynamic view camera angle switching. Let me move the camera and view the world myself and stop fiddling with it in one spot and then immediately back to top down birds eye, gamefreak, just make the damn camera level to the character and let people navigate the 3D space

There's a difference between a shit dev and a lazy one

Even the shittest games out there seem to actually try whereas gf just coasts by
>>
Pokemonamie
player dress up
pikachu dress up, anything pikachu gets that's special, really
Audino type bullshit, though shaking grass spots are good
Not sure how I feel about triple and rotation battles. Triple should go, at least rotation adds something a little interesting and isnt just double battle plus
I kind of wish they'd drop mega evolution. Seems like it's fucking things up more than helping, and the designs tend to be ugly. Not sure.
Any end game battle place that isn't the battle frontier. I seriously can't believe theyve gone through two generations of shit when they had a perfect thing going already. Palmer is the fucking bomb.

You dont even know what you're saying. If anything 6th gen is the innovative when it comes to new mechanics and features

No reason for Deddene to become Raichu though, better to just remove the little shit outright

I know these won't be removed, but a man can hope.

>>25054395
Sky Battles
Difficulty modes locked under a retarded key system
Standalone Battle Tower
More than one "rival"
Inability to nickname the traded Pokemon
IV system
Pokemon gaining full Exp for participating in battles
High level evolutions (lv. 40 or later)
HM Rock Smash
Priority increasing abilities, especially Prankster
>>
I don't remember the frontier being all that good so I'm on the fence. But the battle maison isnt good enough thats for certain.
>>
>>25055056
This desu

I want more "unique" in game battles that change who you can use or change the mechanics. I hate that inverse/triple/rotation battles are so rare, I hate that horde trainer battles will probably never come back, and I think if they expanded on sky battles and even added underwater battles that it could make for a ton of great in-game experiences.

Don't get rid of sky battles, just make them include more pokemon and don't fuck up the animations that you use as a result. Maybe add more game mechanisms/restrictions, like random speed increases/decreases based on wind direction, stuff like that.

Don't start that. That's not what the thread's about.

Finally someone here hates Lumoise City! The music is repetitive, grating and those camera angles too.
>>
The broken exp share as long as the game still isn't balanced around it. Just give me BW's system back.
>>
Event exclusive Pokemon
>>
Does the emphasis on single battles count?
I mean fine, keep the game relatively easy if you want, but I would like to see some more variety in the assembly line simulator that is the main game.

I think Pokémon shines through when you're actually incentivized to do even just a little team building. The jump from main game to Super Battle Tower in Gen 6 is more than the 'average' player can take because the main game teaches them fuck all in comparison.

Pretty much zero effort

>megas

Just an extra evolution. Not a big deal. The designs aren't unique because they're just expansions on what's there and most of them aren't even well thought-out.

>amie

Trash

>super training, soaring

Actually decent but not enough to say GF isn't just coasting. The rest is poorly done lazy shit.

They're probably just in over their heads with the whole 3D thing. Even though it doesn't seem to matter, camera is fixed and indoor areas are still grid-wise for some reason
>>
HM moves needing to be learned. If nothing else, allow the pokemon to use the move in the field without knowing the move if you have the HM.

Frontier's problem was that it was unfeasible to legitimately breed perfect mons at the time. Now they finally made breeding/EV training accessible but cut the content that would make use of it.

Not to mention all the new mechanics, pokemon, moves etc that they added since then that would give it much more variety.

It's just a huge waste.
>>
>>25054412
What if they made it optional?
>>
>>25056073
Lumiose City was fucking horrible.

It tried to be a successor to Castelia but instead it was just insufferable with awful music and an awful design.

Gen5 was better than Gen6 in every way except that I really like the addition of Fairy, and Gen5 has worse starters.
>>
>>25054662
magnitude doesn't even effect flying pokemon!
>>
>>25056391
Different anon, but their models look really awkward and are constantly hovering, especially Xatu's.
>>
It's good that many of you will never work at GF
>>
>>25057568
Why? GF practically cums at the idea of removing features from future installments.
>>
not only do I like sky battes, but I would like the concept expanded on with water battles and things like that
>>
>>25056405

holy shit, you're a fucking faggot, stop sucking GF dick
>>
Sky battles is probably one of the laziest features game freak has ever come up with. It's nothing new except a different background and restricting what pokemon to use.

There are a number of ways they could've made it more unique. Experimenting with elevation, making certain moves do more damage, incorporating some kind of mini game into it.

Sky battles just reek of last minute idea.
>>
>>25059307
>water battles
This should have been a thing from the very beginning. Especially in gen 3 with Dive.
>>
>>25054991
Am I the only one who thinks that was GF taking a passive aggressive jab at competitive breederfags? They must have done it on purpose.

I dont think they buffed scald. It was always a Lava Plume clone

>HM's

I propose Gamefreak get rid of Hm's and instead have a system where you use a Pokemon's natural abilities to the job's of HM's.

i.e you need a Pokemon that can swim to surf, a Pokemon that can fly to fly, a Pokemon that can cut to cut, a Pokemon that can climb to climb, etc. etc.

This system would still encourage you to catch different types of Pokemon, bring new interesting obstacles to the game, and it would never have to use up a Pokemon's move spot.
>>
>>25059885
This should honestly be common sense. Too bad gamefreak is anything but that.
>>
>>25056430
Eviolite was a mistake
>>
>>25060373
It's okay, they have mega evolution now.
They can give new forms to pokemon without accidentally allowing making them with eviolite better than the evolution could ever hope to be.

They have grounded animations in amie, sky battles aren't the problem, it's GF being lazy and bothering to just use the grounded animations for ground battles.

OOPS someones bitter and angry because he was proven to be wrong

>i cant prove you're wrong so i will sho my maturity by insulting you

git gud kid
>>
>>25054412
I really want following pokemon. All they'd have to do is make it option or make it so you can pass through mons and doing so turns them temporarily invisible. They could take the 3d models from pokemon SMD.
>>
>>25060862
It could just bump them out of the way slightly. I know some games do this but not specifically at the top of my head. When the player walks in their exact spot it gives the npc a light push and the character realigns itself to next available space all while giving the player little to no resistive feedback.
>>
>>25059664
Valve is lazier. At least Riot releases a champ or a rework every month. It takes Valve over 10 months to release a new champ.
>>
>>25060840
To be fair he did exclaim that some of the examples you posted couldve been utilitized more but weren't and he was met with "no youre wrong lol git gud git gud" so you both come off as bitter and angry. That said, all you need to do is look at the rest of the thread to see you are one of the few who don't think gf is lazier than they should be
>>
>>25055277
Lumiose could have been solved by putting camera controls on l and r.
This was something devs figured out on the fucking ps1.
