Tierno
>>29366633
The concept of contests.
>>29366633
The Unown.
>>29367366
I completely forgot about how badass they were in the anime.
>>29366633
Kalos
Evolution. Why can't we evolve mid-battle now again? It would be hype.
>>29368061
I've also wish they'd add this for the longest time. If Pokemon can level up and even learn moves mid battle, why can't they evolve?
>>29366633
The league. I've wanted an elimination tournament in Pokemon forever.
>>29367366
>Anime: reality warpers that have limitless powers and their own dimension
>Games: useless fucks that only know hidden power
why tho
>>29366633
Tournaments as a midpoint between gym leaders and E4. Battles can be pretty fun to watch with explosions and destruction
>>29366633
It gave Blaine a Magmar.
>>29366633
Blastoise actually uses it's cannons.
>>29366633
Sizes.
>>29366633
Team Flare.
>>29366633
vastly improved XY's friends club
Voices

Filler shit. Would it kill Gamefreak to make longer routes and more towns between each gym?
>>29370826
I wish they would get rid of the corridors all together. and fill the empty space with forests, jungles, lakes, deserts, etc... so that we could could catch more pokemon

>Val's minions are all the same height
>Not making Linnea a tall goddess with Blossom dwarfed by her but still reasonably taller than the other two
Katherine and Kali being the same are all right at least...
Well...
Nurse Joy

The manga did better
>>29366633
Pic unrelated right?
>>29367366

All of these, but if I had to add something on terms of "Kalos", it would be that it's much more fleshed out and there's actual fucking rivals. Also, having a tournament where you can fight a bunch of rivals you meet along the way is fucking cash, and makes sense as to why there isn't many people who challenge the Elite 4.
and if you haven't seen her on the anime, you probably won't remember her as much.

True, when the games were new the gym leaders has just a few lines of text, the E4 had less. The anime gives them movements and personality quarks that can be visualized
>>29371045
I think the games transitioning in 3D has the potential to change that. You notice more of their intended expressions and gestures for battle, hinting MORE at their personality than before.
The fact that GameFreak is dropping chibi models in mainline games and being a tad cinematic could be a step in the right direction. The idea of where it could go on a system stronger than 3DS sends chills down my spine, like Pokemon games almost wouldn't need an anime adaptation to do a region's story some justice.

The best thing I like about the anime is the music

I swear, that thumbnail makes me think she's holding some kind of firearm.
>>29368937
Wasn't this the point of Pokemon Stadium?
