You know what I want? A 3rd person shooter-RPG pokemon game. You'd collect pokemon and level them up, they gain stats, etc, just like a pokemon 2d gameboy game or whatever. But when you battle, you control them directly. No more of this taking turns with moves stuff. Attacks have recharge bars. You have to aim your attacks. The arena makes you jump and go over rocks or whatever it happens to be. It could be perfectly flat! When not in battle, you control the trainer of course. You surf on your pokemon, you control their flight, whatever. 3rd person game. I don't know why this hasn't been made. It fills the niche between people who love pokemon and people who love a real action game. It's the next step up for the 2d handheld games too, in terms of strategy and whatnot. Hell, add in an emotion aspect to the pokemon, where you can train them and bond and stuff to make certain stats go higher instead of others. Make factions. Join team rocket or whatever. Add a way to buy your own home in one of the residential towns and furnish it, adding an animal crossing idea sort of. Customized bikes! Customezed pokeballs! and stuff. You get the picture. I've been dreaming of a game like this for years. The mechanics of the game could be such that it is the first game where there could be fair cross-platform play. If nintendo did it right, they would make it so you can raise pokemon in the handheld game that you transferred from (born in the 3d game, not born in 2d) the console! The game could even have some more breeding options! Genetics could be a factor. Different sizes, some aspects such as off coloring, stripe patterns, born-with stats, fur grain, etc. Make capturing legendaries the most ridiculous thing in the game! a REAL challenge! As in they wouldn't be your most powerful pokemon if you DID capture it! And limit them in the game world. Make people fight eachother and bet for them (ooh pokemon betting?). Add world events, like "team rocket" attacking things, or storms, or evil pokemon and everyone teams up. This game has some MMO aspects to it. It's a 3rd person shooter MMORPG. I'm going on and on here.
