I'll make this a thing. Whenever a new main series game is announced, I'll make a "Hopes and dreams" thread for it.
Quick recollection of the last thread (which can be found here if you wanna go through it: https://www.pokebay.com/forums/showt...-the-new-games )
Things we wished for S/M and got:
- Character customization! Hooray Gamefreak, you listened! <3
- APRICORN BALLS WOOT WOOT
- HM items (the pokemon call thing. We got that. It cool. No more HM slaves!) We also kind of got new "vehicles" this way...I mean they're not cars, but. You gotta love that Tauros ride.
- A darker, more interesting storyline and I will cry forever if they don't keep this up. This is the most important thing to me personally.
- Ash's Greninja
- Two evil teams
Thing we wanted but didn't get, at least not yet:
- Pokémon following us.
- Pokeathlon (or really any minigame that's more interactive than movies and contests)
*Also Bug catching contest! Let's face it, Johto had the best minigames.
- PWT (Well we kind of got this but not really actually...)
- Lots of megas for different pokemon
- Ability to travel to another region, hek Lillie
- Ball capsules
- Difficulty option
- More gyms
- Removal of Shinylock
- A dolphin pokémon
Anything we missed last time? What would you like to see? Anything you want changed, more of, less of?
