Pokemon game idea.

I'm just asking your opnion about this idea. What if nintendo would make a regular pokemon game BUT instead of turn based combat it would be an action rpg. Battle system could be like the battle system of the Tales serie. Instead of different spells we could have moves wich pokemons could learn. You could move freely in an 3d field and you could have different moves in different buttons or button combinations. For example: I'm using pikachu and i'm fighting charmander. If charmander uses ember i could be able to avoid it by moving out of the way and using thunderbolt on the charmander.

Do you think this is a good idea?

 

Cool but if you make it harder to avoid an attack i think it would be better. It's just my opinion, but i think it woulfd be too easy if you could avoid EVERY attack in the game.

its a good idea, it could kinda be like custom robo arena

 

If it was done right it could work. I enjoyed the Dungeon games and they're in a completely different genre from the original.
Although it would be difficult to incorporate a few moves/pokemon. How do you think Magikarp would look like using splash constantly on land.
And flying pokemon would have an unfair advantage.

 

good but it won't be pokemon if you know what i mean. It just won't be the same, plus battle could last forever if your fighting someone eg a friend. The ability to dodge the attack could be a nuisance since they could dodge the moves easily if there skilled enough. It will get rid of the strategy part of the game since if it was like your idea you can't anticipate what moves they're going to use because you don't have the time to do and the game will be pretty high paced. Some water pokemon eg goldeen will have problems on land since its a fish, need to swim to move. Battle areas will be a problem, two small pokemon eg togepi and magby fighting will make it difficult to land hits on a large area because the target has more time to react. Big pokemon will not have a problem in large areas but will have a problem in small areas because they cannot move around the area more. If you have seen the pokemon shows/movies the way they dodge the moves is varied, dodgin moves by jumping on walls they bouncing off.

 

What is up with people and the need to change a nearly perfected battle system? Next you'll tell me God of War needs to be an RTS.

 

That would be terrible.

 

OMG!! what a great idea!!!

 

I'd totally play that, good idea, goat.

 

you know what else would be awesome? RPG sports/racing games

 

Drift City, Drift Online.

 

i meant turn based sports/racing games

 

Are you joking? Those are two things you just don't mix with turn based.

oh, that would be fun to play

 

An example of a turn based sport game would be Pangya online.

 

And Blood Bowl. Turn based, rpg, fantasy american football.

 

That doesn't count as turn based, Golf is always turn based bro.

 

QUESTION: Why must it be pokemon?

 

Why not?!!
