Anyone else genuinely miss HMs?

I find it weird using socialist Pokemon to do tasks. Feels a lot more like slavery.
>>
Yes, your opinion is bad and you should feel bad.
>>
Not really, but I would have preferred if you had to befriend the pokemon before you could use the pokemon ride rather than have someone just give you a giant dog
>>
Do I miss restrictions on my in-game team and their movesets? Fuck no, don't be a faggot

>>
>>30667456
No fuck HMs

What i do miss is the bike and dowsing machine
>>
Having HM slaves specifically was slavery, hell it was in the name.
>>
>>30667501
It's not super funny but you're being autistic here.
>>
I do
I remember a level 5 Machop that accompanied me all the way to the Distortion World in my Platinum Nuzlocke who was only there because he was the only Pokemon I had that could use Rock Climb. I always saw HMs as a reason to actually use Pokemon you'd never use.
>>
>>30667527
fuck you, stoutland rules and tauros is way faster than a bike
>>
Already decided that I wont ever play a pokemon game with HMs. I like to have a party that I actually want to use too much.
>>
>>30667566
You didn't actually use Machop, though. You didn't train him, didn't learn to appreciate him, didn't even evolve him. You literally just used him as a slave.
>>
>>30667571
No fuck you, without holding B all the time Tauros is slow as shit and Dowsing machine from both 5 and 6 gen shit on Stoutland
>>
>>30667590
not used in battle =/= slave
He contributed more than my male Gardevoir which couldn't fight most of the Galactic grunts because they used Dark-types.
>>
>>30667456
The entire reason they did it this way is because so many people were complaining about HMs. I guess you can't make everyone happy.

I prefer it this way, since you don't have to clutter up your movesets with useless moves, or carry around an extra Water-type with Surf/Waterfall/Whirlpool/Dive. They could've done it slightly different than the Poké-Uber system they have now, like for example allowing Pokémon to learn moves that don't take up a moveslot that they can only use out of battle.

But I'll take this over HMs.

imagine being this wrong
>>
>>30667626
Yeah, he was a slave since the entire point of the game is to battle with mons. You could have fucking used a Bidoof and he wouldn't have been any different than that Machop.
>>
>>30667456
I do but not for moral reasons or because of muh slaves.

It's just that the alternative is worse than the original deal.
I mean, Stoutland is the most unaccurate itemfinder and there is not even a real reason to even be in machamp's arms and get safety gloves for the sad fucker because he's only useful in filler puzzle rooms and you could use him separately instead of insisting on riding it.

Anyway, what was the previous problem?
Having to sacrifice two move slots forfly and surf?
Not even a big deal.
>>
>>30667684
Cut
Defog
Rock Smash
Flash
Whirlpool

Also, I've noticed no problems with Stoutland, it's perfectly accurate, if a little slow.
>>
>>30667684
Oh, also.
>Steering wheels
>Those clothes
>>
Nah I like having total freedom to build my team the way I want without my water-type having 3 Water moves.

I hope they carry over in the Sinnoh Remakes

>>30667684
>2 slots
In most game you'll end up having your Water-type carry Waterfall, Surf, Dive/Whirpool

You also either have to dump in one pokémon or distribute absolutely useless moves like Cut, Rock Smash (remember it used to be 20 BP), Flash or Defog

And it limits your team-building, either because you save one space for your HM slave, of because you need to always carry at least a Water type and a Flying Type unless you feel like walking everywhere or backtracking to a pc to retrieve a stupid fish just to cross a minor water route
>>
I'd like it if they had a nice compromise.

HMs no longer need to be learned. All you need is the right badge or trial for anyone pokemon that could technically learn the move to just use it.

So once you get the surf badge, any water pokemon and most normal types can just surf, you just need 1 in your party.
>>
I like having poke-slaves, even better if they don't take one slot of my party.

Fuck me, right?
>>
>>30667684
>2 slots

What the fuck, more like 2 team members.

No, if anything, I hope they never bring them back. Yeah maybe in the DP remakes cause of GF's entire "but I have to stay true to the original" thing, but after that, no. HM's are something that should stay in the past.
And for anyone that might say "oh GF is just gonna remove the Pokerider", you do realise they did this specifically cause everyone was complaining about HM's and something had to be done. They know how much the community hates HM's.

The main reason why I didn't buy the game is because there aren't any HMs in it. Not to mention that I'd rather walk than rely solely on a Charizard for Fly and Tauros for Rock Smash.

Why?

>>30667477
I mean that'd make sense. I guess. I would've preferred HMs being in some separate slot on Pokemon you have instead.

>>30667500
You mean like the restrictions of not having all items, not being able to get all Pokemon, not being able to get all evolutions? It's another arbitrary restriction except this one has you have your Pokemon provide utility outside of dogfighting.

>>30667530

>>30667581
HMs aren't even that bad for an in-game team

>>30667628
Your suggestion is the better way. Or just require you to have a Pokemon of that type.

I guess they wanted to show off models of actual Pokemon when you were riding, so they stuck with the "everyone enslaves the same tauros" bit.

>>30667684
The moveslot restriction wasn't even bad.

Also having access to Surf as a mandatory part of the game is awesome.

Yeah, I liked being made to carry something that has surf and fly in its movepool all the time!

And rock smash was great! Who didn't like good items being stuck behind itty bitty rocks that you needed to break with the weakest fucking move ever?

Defog, Flash, Whirlpool, Rock Climb and Cut (the inferior Slash) are my best friends and I'm sick of all these PIECES OF SHIT FUCKING AUTISTS who refuse to acknowledge that it wasn't the pokemon that made Pokemon such a fun experience. Neither was it the characters. It was those unforgettable moves that Gamefreak BLASPHEMED by letting people go to a m... move d-de-del... letting people go to a MAN WHO CANNOT BE NAMED! to forget them!
>>
Not at all. I don't like wasting moveslots on terrible moves like Cut.

>>30667979
The term HM slave does not imply HM slavery
The HM slave actually is a valued member of the team it isn't "slavery"

Somebody mentioned once how Pokeride should be a sole Ditto that you can carry around, and as the game progresses NPCs teach it to transform into various Pokemon for transportation instead of you picking up different Pokemon each time and them appearing out of nowhere.

No I understand where OP is coming from. I LIKED having my OWN pokemon transport me.

I don't want some random Charizard, I want my Crobat to turn into the same amorphous blob as every other flying pokemon. I WANT my Golurk to become an amorphous birdblob instead of a rocket man.

I liked all my surfing pokemon turning into Black Lapras, or Blapras.

And who the fuck wants to ride a Tauros? I don't even like Tauros. My favourite pokemon was Bike, and now Bike doesn't even exist. How am I supposed to enjoy traveling with my own pokemon if I can't even ride Bike?

From a lore perspective, yes. HMs were much more in line with the adventure feel of the series. You felt like you had to rely on your Pokémon to get places and do things. It felt like really exploring.

From a mechanical perspective, no, HMS were ass and I hated not having all of them at all times.
>>
>>30668385
Yeah man I sure love always having to carry around birds and water-types

I mean, right now I have the ability to do whatever I want including making a mono-fire run in Sun/Moon if I feel like it, without absolutely no problem at all, since I'm no longer bound by arbitrary HM needs but FUCK THAT, restricting the player when it comes to teambuilding is the way to go
>>
No. HMs were a pain in the ass in every fucking way.
>>
>>30668042
I don't think everyone enslaves the same Tauros, though. It's like an Uber system. You press a button and say "I need to smash rocks now", and the closest registered Tauros runs your way.
>>
What i really hate is the shitty hick music that plays whenever you get on any ridemon and the dumb outfit
>>
>>30668660
Alright, if Tauros is the transport of choice for countryside hicks, what are the city slickers riding? Rapidash?
>>
>>30668660
TUH-RUTH! I think the music change is the worst part of it, and just getting rid of that would make it so much more bearable.

>>30668404
Also truth. I agree with others that said that 'HMs' should've been either innate to certain species, or a 'field-only' moveslot.

I agree especially on the outfit part.

Seriously, put a good bit of emphasis on the player customiazation, only to have it hidden when riding something, which if you're smart will be most of the time.
>>
This is the first time I had a trained team of 6 that were all actually useful in battle. I hope HMs never come back.
>>
>>30668660
It'd be nice if you could just play your own choice music when riding a ride Pokémon.

Fucking Gen II had a radio, why did that ever have to disappear?
>>
>>30668135
I could get behind that idea. So long as it kept the goofy face.
>>
My only complaint, which is a minor one, was that once you've unlocked all the ridemons, there's no sort of decision making involved. I would actually appreciate it, from an exploration perspective, if you had a limited number of ride slots and had to choose which were assigned from say, a PC or something. This way there's an exploration incentive to revisit locations you come across even after you unlock all the rides.
>>
I'm sorry, we just got a remake of a game with EIGHT HMs in it and there are people who are legitimately upset that HMs are no more?!

>>30671420
You've got a point, but Game Freak has to retard-proof everything. Especially in earlier generations, it's possible to get the badge for an HM move without having the HM in your possession (either from a traded Pokemon with the move or by putting the HM in PC storage after using it). Deleting the move gets you permastuck if you save in these cases.

Is it unlikely to happen? Of course, but idiots are idiots.

That's right. All they'd need to do now is make sure that the player obtains the HM before the badge that enables the use of the HM or just enable all HMs to begin with like in gen 5 and there'd be no chance of failure outside of being able to trade your party Pokemon away while outside of a Pokemon Center.

>>30671758
I wish more people were like you.
>>
>>30671874
You're wrong. You can deposit HMs in gen 1. Otherwise, you'd effectively only have 15 inventory slots after obtaining them all.

Play ORAS and say that again.

The only complaint I can empathize with at all is disliking the riding outfits.Would have been neat if they had let you keep your outfit, but even with the most touristic safety gear ever pokerides are way way better then HMS.
>>
I'd MAYBE miss rock smash if it got buffed this gen, but it didn't. So no.

>>30667456
I love how two of the things are addressed in Sun/Moon.

Also, no, HMs were awful. The only thing I'd possibly suggest is Strength as a TM.

Single-use TMs was astonishingly unfriendly towards casual play, I really don't understand how it took them until Unova to fix it.
>>
>>30667456
i like the ride pokemon but miss the hm's themselves at least surf/fly becuase they were actually good offensive moves

i hope in stars they bring back the hms as tms or some shit instead of as a fucking move only a few pokemon have
>>
>>30673743
Fly is a TM you get at the Malie Library, at least.
>>
>>30668385
This, but expanded, so that Rhydon can surf, Golurk can fly, etc.
>>30668429
You mean like restricting the player to use pokemon the player doesn't own to get around with or restricting them to ugly-ass outfits while doing it?
>>
>>30673743
Anon fly, surf, and waterfall are still in the game
>>
I wish there were more choices for ride pokes. Also why get rid of the bike entirely? I would've preferred if it was still there so I wouldn't have to worry about Tauros being too much of a fatass to fit in an area.

you faggots would complain about being able to rebattle legendaries if you defeat them because it "removes all the tension and epicness" or some crap like that woudn't oyu?

Fuck me, man, that got me for way longer than it should have and I kept doing it for quite a while. Even now I'll occasionally slip up.

I wouldn't even mind riding Pokemon if I weren't forced to wear a shitty outfit while doing it
FUCK YOU GF THE NPCs DON'T HAVE TO WEAR SAFETY GEAR WHY DO I HAVE TO

If you knock out the legendaries when trying to catch them, it's your own dumbass fault.

how is that a restriction from the game perpective you absolute retard?

>or restricting them to ugly-ass outfits while doing it?
how is that a restriction from the game perpective you absolute retard?
Also, while I dislike the ugly outfits, I can deal with that. Still better than being forced to carry a flier, a surfer and a HM mule everytime i just want to check out a location for a missing item
>>
>>30673958
Most NPCs you see Pokériding are either using their own pokémon, or are at work (like that one Mudsdale policeman)

Pokéride is a rental service, they can get sued if you hurt yourself while riding their pokémon, hence safety gear. Hapu doesn't use it because if she falls off her own Mudsdale it's all on her
>>
>>30673992
>using mules
>not loving each of your pokemon friends equally
>>
>>30667456

Nope.

Good Riddance. I hope we get Poke Rides or Key Items forever, but we all know HMs will be back for the Gen 4 remakes, whenever they come out.
>>
>>30674178
Have a last (You)

>when Gen 5 was released everyone was praising how there was little to no need to have HMs outside of Surf/Fly because the routes were structured so that you could clear them by foot
>Gen 7 takes it a step further and cuts HMs entirely
>people complaining about not needing HMs
I don't like the music either, but prior to SM I was resigning myself to using a Pikipek even though I didn't want to because I assumed I needed a flyslave, instead I got the freedom to put a Minior on my team, what's there to complain about?
This is likely an elaborate bat thread though.
>>
>>30674382
Pokeride replaced not just HMs but shit people actually liked, like the bike, itemfinder, and while you were using it, the clothes you bought. It's a shitty replacement and >>30667870 is correct.
>>
>>30667870
the removal of the headphone jack was to make way for implementing more features and promoting wireless headsets.

it was a smart business decision

At least the bike is mine, not something I'm renting. And I don't look like a dork while riding it.

Gonna be specifically weird if they bring them back for the future remakes.

I don't miss HMs, albeit I do miss Surf and Strength as moves to use in battle.


That being said.

WHY THE FUCK DID YOU GET RID OF TELEPORT?
>>
>>30675349
You get Surf as a TM you retard. Why in the fuck does no one actually play this damn game?

>>30675381
When do you get it? I just beat Hapu.

no op, I do not have brain damage

there was literally nothing wrong with HM's
expect defog fuck everything about that disaster

It's at the Poni Breaker Coast. The location you have to move through to get to the Ruins in the first place.

HMs wouldn't be an issue if you could simply write over them with TMs or level-up moves.

But nope, gotta have access to the Move Deleter to remove them because fuck logic.

The Johto Hidden Maidens give you Surf and Waterfall there.

Yes I miss a useless fucking Pokemon that I most likely hate or even despise and are forced to use it instead of something i actually like or even adore JUST because the game refuses to allow me to continue without it
Who in their right mind NOT want to have some useless filler instead of something competent that would tank hits and allow me to revive whoever died and avenge them immediately after amirite? ;^)
Jesus fucking Christ I know it would've been better with the pokemon being ours, but for fucks sakes, Nintendo captured unrefined lighting in a bottle here and you retards want them to release it instead of refining it, why the fuck do you want that? Like fuck off already Richard jeez

I don't like ride pokemon because every time you use them you're forced to wear that dumb rider suit.

I miss being able to use Surf and Waterfall in battle before the Elite Four. And that's about it.
