ORAS What New & Returning Features Do You Want in OR / AS?

If they added summer and beach stuff, I think it'd be funny if they added a speedo for guys. Can you imagine how oddly amusing it would be to battle some random player in a speedo and stuff? But, honestly, the best things they could add to customization IMO is more eye colors, odd eye possibility, more hair colors, highlights, more haircuts, and definitely more clothes to wear. Maybe even some version exclusive outfits? Like OR has a groudon armor themed outfit and AS has a kyogre swimsuit outfit.


Wow I just realized how my amount of clothes tripled since I got X and Y lol

That would be hilarious, just like those Swimmer guys in R/S/E in their speedos. Oh, Nintendo.....xDD

I agree, more eye colors and hair colors would be great! More diverse clothing for both genders, as well. Although, I must say, X/Y has done a pretty nice job with the character customizations on the first go round. :)
 
I agree with more eye and hair colors. They should put in unnatural hair colors like blue, green, pink, and purple.

Pokemon Amie and Super Training should stay, too. Super Training would make it easier to EV train for the Battle Frontier.

And of course, the day and night cycle which wasn't in Hoenn originally.
 
I'm hoping for something way out there, but I can daydream: I hope they make baby Pokemon practical rather than gimmicky like they are now. Have a Pichu, Igglybuff, etc. hold a Delta Stone while they evolve, and they'll become a completely different Pokemon from Pikachu and Jigglypuff, and that Pokemon would evolve into something different from Raichu and Wigglytuff.

Also, something I've always hoped for ever since the breeding mechanism was introduced in G/S: crossbreeding. I want a turtle-penguin hybrid when I breed a Squirtle and a Piplup, dang it!

I think one day they'll get to cross breeding, but probably not for another generation or two. Can you imagine how much coding that would take??? Even if it, say, kept the mothers typing and species but had the fathers colouring or something, that would be sweet.

I would just LOVE more colour shades for pokemon, just to make them differ from eachother and your opponents. Like, obviously we have shinies already, but can you imagine if, like spinda or flabebe, all pokemon just had some slight variations they could be caught with? And colour wouldn't be too hard do you think, would it?
 
Yeah, I realize coding would be a nightmare for crossbred Pokemon, but I figure as the technology gets better and games/systems are able to hold more data, maybe hybrids aren't out of the realm of possibility, at least as far as capability goes; whether or not Game Freak/Nintendo want to go down that road is the next question.

I like that coloring difference though. I think that would be really cool, actually. If I can't get hybrids, that would be a welcome substitute, and I wouldn't think it'd be that difficult for the coders to do. Like you said, we already have shiny sprites, and then differences with Spinda, Flabebe, Unown, and the gender differences in some species. I think it'd be doable to introduce different colored sprites.
 
I want to be able to release multiple Pokemon at the same time. It would make it so much easier for Masuda Method!
I also like the idea of Delta Species Pokemon, I want my Psychic type Ninetales :3
 
I would like to see the following features:
- No More Mega Evolutions - Okay guys, I understand that Mega Evolutions were great and all but I doubt that they will be making a return. In the games and animé it was said that Mega Pokémon were only seen in the Kalos region. I think that has something to do with Diance or the Mysterious Tower (or whatever it was called). And iirc didn't one of the developers of XY say that Mega Evolutions were exclusive to Kalos?
- Super Training - Super Training was a pretty awesome feature. But now it's time to make it better. I doubt that it will return to the bottom screen in order to make room for more cool stuff, so I think there will be an actual facility dedicated to Super Training. Oh, and this time can we please actually see the number of EVs, it makes it much easier to keep track of, especially with Horde Battles?
- Horde Battles - Easy EV training and a really awesome, new way of battling. Maybe Horde Battles with trainers, or multiple trainers?
- Character Customization - It was an amazing feature in XY and it would be very appropriate for this to become a series staple. Just as long as males get a little more clothing and we can take the dang hats off, I'll be happy.
- Contests - I loved contests in RSE. Now, with increased online capabilities maybe we could do online contests with friends. Contest battles would also be cool but not necessary imo.
- PSS - I don't think I need to say anything here. It was good. It should return.
- Underwater Battles/Diving - OMG could you image exploring the ocean floor in beautiful 3D and enhanced graphics! It would be amazing! I would also like to see more areas to explore while diving and special underwater battles like Sky Battles with only water types.
- Wii U Connection - So there wasn't really any Pokémon on the Wii U to do this with XY but maybe there is a game in production like Pokkén Fighters or something else that can communicate with the 3DS. Maybe a Colosseum or XD sequel?
 
I would like:

*Character Customization(If the skin tones come back, I hope they have at least 2 more darker options & better or more clothing options)

* Improve Contests(Like dressing up our pokemon & ourselves, the dancing (like in Diamond & Peral), & Instead of showing off moves the regular way, we could battle instead)

* Improved Secret Bases( New furniture, new toys, a computer, a better tv, a gimmick to where you can take photos that you took in-game & choose one to hang on your wall, & a mini-fridge to store berries & poke'blocks).


I think that's all.

I would be surprised if the new Groudon/Kyogre aren't megas, and the fact that Blaziken gets a mega but the other two starters don't seems too random, even for Nintendo.
 
Another thing, keep the ability from HG/SS to run without having to always press the B-button!
 
I'd like the PWT to return. Maybe Wionna could take you to Unova and you could participate? This game seems like more of a "flashy, look at this" kind of game where new features aren't necessary, but a returning feature like this would be great

If they were going to include the PWT, they'd just put it somewhere in Hoenn. There's no real point in flying you to a completely different region just for a new battle facility.

But I don't think it's going to happen anyway, it was convenient for them in BW2 because they could just reuse character sprites from 4th gen games which cut out most of the work they'd have to do in bringing in the other characters (they only had to redo the 3rd gen characters), but it wouldn't be as easy now, not just because they have more characters to redo (all of the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th gen characters), but also because of the switch to 3D models, which makes it much harder to redesign each of the characters. Ultimately, I think it would just be too time consuming for them to do.
 
So, basically, you're saying GF is lazy and just reuses stuff rather than mwork on stuff from scratch to make the game better? Or am I misunderstanding?

What I'm saying is that it'd be significantly more overwhelming to do it now (and most likely any other game since) than it was in BW2.
 
For the features I'd love to return, I'd love something new to be done with Secret Bases. I'd also welcome the return of Contests, the Safari Zone and Dive.

For the new features I'd love to see in OR and AS, Trainer Customization, Underwater Battles, Pokémon that follow you around in a similar manner to HG/SS, and of course, something new to be done with StreetPass.

Secret Bases sound like they'd be a good use for Streetpass.
 
I want something new that has to do with the music. Like, for example, there could be a place where you can "customize" your music that plays when you battle someone. Like, it'll let you choose from some instruments to put in. Like, you can put in up to 3 more, but you don't put the music wherever you want. It just goes in with the um.... tune or whatever automatically, but you get to choose when the instrument starts playing. Like, it'd show the song, and you stretch the instrument's thing for when you want it to start and end. Idk, I just wanna someday have customizable battle themes.
 
Honestly, I kind of hope they'll introduce key item replacements for HM moves, especially since Hoenn requires 3 different water HMs just to navigate the map. For example, Scuba Gear to replace Dive, a Pickaxe for Rock Smash, or a Machete to negate the need for Cut. (I've been playing a pokemon homebrew the past few months, and I really love that aspect of the game). I'm a huge fan of what they've done in recent games with Strength, though, and I hope they keep that change in the remakes.

As for returning features, I'd love to see walking pokemon come back (with the option to choose who follows, and the option to have no follower if you so desire). I also hope they do something about the two bikes, like a gear toggle or something. Or have the rollerskates take over the function of the Mach Bike altogether (but not the Acro Bike; I miss the days of cheating the safari zone by hopping in one place all day).
