For me...

Do's:
+A slew of rivals. Really, I absolutely hated Gary for his overconfident...ness, the criminal-type guy from G/S/C was alright, and Brendan/May were too friendly (but Wally was fine). Why not just make an assload of rivals?
+Another Battle Frontier. DO IT.
+Secret Bases with a lot more stuff and... stuff.
+More Ghosts!

Don'ts:
-Another freaking Dragon that has a 4x weakness to Ice.


I'll add more later.

Do:

- Ability to catch all pokemon with those two versions alone. I hated how they split up the pokemon in the recent generations and required about five games to complete.

- Flying/Fighting + Flying/Ghost. That will make flying be paired up with everything except itself.

- I would like a new type, yet it was confirmed it wouldn't happen.

- Give Sableye Skill Swap >_< [I've always wanted a sableye/shedinja team]

- The pokedex should keep track of the colored pokemon you have gotten.

Don't:

- *agrees with Inferno*
- NO MORE FLYING/NORMALS! WE HAVE ENOUGH!
- No more stones
- No more tide-based things
- Get rid of dive just as they did whirlpool in the past. Get rid of waterfall. Get rid of flash. Only keep cut/fly/surf/rock smash/strength. Add 1-2 more new HMs.

More do's and don'ts for me...

Do's:
+Certain Pokemon species...

  • Badger
  • Werewolf
  • Maybe a werebear
  • A two-legged dragon that doesn't look like it's from Dragon Tales (or whatever you call it)
  • Scorpion that doesn't fly and is actually a Bug-type.
  • Cerberus. Let Houndoom evolve.
  • An actual phoenix. Moltres is a giant flaming chicken and Ho-oh is just a colorful bird.
  • Hydra. The dragon-like kind.
  • Venus fly trap. That'd be cool. I actually have one in mind...
  • A vampire would be nice...
+Elemental punches as TMs.
+Water/Ghost. The two types won't help each other any, and I know that it contradicts one of my don'ts, but it'll certainly be very cool.
+Steel/Ghost. Perhaps a possessed suit of armor? I remember creating a Pokemon with such a type at another board.
+Normal/Ghost. I'd like to see how that works out.


Don'ts:
-As cool as they are, reduce the amount of Water Pokemon, and let types like Fire and Rock have their glory.
-NO DUAL TYPE MOVES. I mean, imagine a Ludicolo using a Grass/Water attack against, say, a Geodude. Can you say "OVERKILL!!!"? Plus, it'll overcomplicate things and screw up a lot of Pokemon. Let's say that the elemental punches become part Fighting. Boom, Alakazam is instantly obsolete.
-No starters that are part Dragon. As cool as they'll be, it'll mess up the starter balance, for Dragon-types resist Fire, Water, and Grass.
-Don't change the type system. Well, maybe Poison could be super-effective against Water, but besides that, nothing else.
-GOD DAMNIT, NO MORE ROCK/GROUNDS. NOBODY USES THEM. Well, maybe some people use Rhydon, but that's besides the point.

The Pokemon series lost me after Gold and Silver. If there is one thing they could change it would be this...

Don't
Make about 50 more Water types
Make about 50 more Normal/Flying, or Ground/Rock types

Now for the stuff that would be good...

Do's
Make about 20 new Ghost Pokemon
Make about 20 new Fire Pokemon

I have heard that Thunderpunch is now physical in D/P. Not exactly giving the attacks two types, but automatically making Alakazam and the like useless. Way to go. ;_;

IIRC, we're getting a total of about 500 Pokemon...

That's in total, not what we're getting from D/P. >_>

I can handle 500 Pokemon, I've handled the original 386 or so.

EDIT: Why change the starter types? It's imperfect. For one thing, there's two special types and one physical, and for another, Psychic can't hit Dark. At all.

The GSC starters sucked, IMO. Three mono-types FTL.

But R/S/E FTW. You pretty much got a winner whichever one you picked.

Are you ****ing kidding?

Abilities are cool, if not annoying. Serene Grace, Levitate, Wonder Guard, Speed Boost, Marvel Scale FTW.

And Mudkip is awesome. Do not deny it.

Every generation has had its share of new features, good Pokemon, and crap Pokemon. We all deal with it, and we all come to love it. Sorta...

The ability thing was all right (so was the 2-on-2 battle), but I HATED the contests, removal of day/night system, complicated puzzles, and removal of half the old Pokemon.

Contests were fun... sorta... it gave you a feeling of satisfaction when you get a bajillion hearts for using Explosion and having max condition.

Day/night ****ed up my ability to complete the Pokedex.

I don't play Pokemon for the puzzles...

Who needs the old Pokemon? Get Ditto, and you're set for life. Besides, they made FR/LG for a reason... and Coliseum, too.

I guess this could be the new D/P discussion topic...

*Guess what? Spoiler alert!*


Well, it's been released in Japan, and a boatload of information has been released. My general opinion on some stuff...

  • I'm seeing a lot of cool new type combos... and some really crappy ones. The other Dragon/Ground Pokemon comes to mind. However, some of the ones I think are pretty neat are Yukimenoko (Ice/Ghost), Rotumo (Electric/Ghost), Diaruga (Steel/Dragon =O), and Giradina (Ghost/Dragon).
  • Whoa, whoa, whoa. Back up. Is Enperuto seriously Water/Steel? Isn't Grass not effective against Steel? Holy shit, this disrupts the starter circle! THE END OF THE WORLD IS UPON US!!!!!
  • ...Why is Biidaru Normal/Water?
  • Why the hell did they give Nosepass an evo?!
  • AND WHY TWO NEW EEVEELUTIONS?!?!?!?!???!!!

Oh, and while we are discussing D/P, which of the 3 starter types do you want?

The penguin is the one I want. Shall be named Vhozon, after Author Vhozon.

In the order from most to least...

1. Pochama. Water types kick so much ass.
2. Hikozaru. Even if it's possible he's just a possible Blaziken wannabe...
3. Naetoru. I don't know... Grass/Ground? It's just... too...
