Now, since Sink keeps telling me he won't take my suggestions unless I posted them on the forums, I decided to make this megathread full of suggestions/ideas for future updates of the game.
1. Missions/Quests: To improve the gameplay of the game past the level of pure grindfest, I propose we incorporate missions that will help flesh out the gameplay of the game and might even add some story to it aswell. These missions could be as simple as delivering an item to an NPC, defeating a certain amount of pokemon that are causing havoc in an area, or defeating a big boss pokemon (Legendaries). These quests will give EXP and Cash rewards.
2. Dungeons: Dungeons will be a new challenge for players to overcome, it will be filled with difficult pokemon relative to your level and at the end of it you will fight a dungeon boss (Legendaries). For the most part dungeon bosses would not be able to be taken down alone so team up with your friends, work out a strategy, and take it down.
3. Stat Over-haul: We all know that the stats of pokemon in Ptwi is, well, off, so I propose we go through and fix all the levels of evolution for pokemon, and add unique stats for individual pokemon(since everyone pokemon has the same stats (excluding legendaries)). We should also add EVs into the game so you can effect to a certain point how you raise your pokemon, so it can be suited for different situations like tanking a boss, or being a lethal PVPer.
4. Battle System Revamped: Any of you that have battled someone on Ptwi knows that all attacks do relatively the same damage except for shockwave and ember. I suggest we give each attack a base power which is then multiplied by a certain number if the attack type is your own pokemon type and if the attack is super effective. It should also do less damage if the pokemon resists the attack. Also, the way attacks hit opponent should be changed, all attacks currently will hit a target if it's in a certain distance away in any direction. I think we should change that and make certain attacks go in the direction relative to where you're facing while others cover a wide surface of area.(this could be achieved with attack icons and gfx)There should be attacks that give confusion/sleep/freeze/burn/poison etc. This will add a new element of strategy to PvP.
5. New Music: I suggest we add new music to the new areas that will be implemented and add more music to areas that don't currently have their own music.
6. Clan/Guild Bases: I think we should designate certain areas of the map that clans can take over and claim as their base. There will be several locations to accomodate for many clans, and clans can wage war with each other and try to take over another clan's base for more territory and power. (Clans/Guilds should only be able to be established by trainers)
7. More Ways to Make Money: As a Trainer, the only way to make money is to mine. I think we should add more ways to make money like farming and fishing. With Farming, you plant berries and grow them until they're ready to be harvested. With fishing you fish for Magikarps to sell to the market for money or something along those lines. Mining, Fishing, and Farming should each have their own levels of expertise. The higher your level in the given proficiency the better amounts of gold you get from mining, the better fish you catch, and the better/rarer berries you get from farming. Each Trainer can only specialize in one of these areas.
8. New Moves/TMs/HMs: The current selection of moves in the game is pitiful. There should be more moves in the game that you learn by leveling up and there should be more TMs that you can buy/find. Also, every pokemon shouldn't be able to learn every single TM. There should be specifications in so that each Pokemon has it's own set of moves it can learn. We should add HMs into the game so that you can fly to any city you've been to, and travel on water to different regions.
9. Equiptable Items: I think we should add items that pokemon can hold to improve certain stats, or other things. Pokemon should also be able to hold berries that automatically heal HP/status conditions that they get.
Note: This is the current list of my ideas, I might be missing a few or forgot to add some, if I think of anymore I will edit this message and add them.
I'd like to hear your thoughts on my ideas, and if you have any decent ideas I'd like you to share them aswell. Thanks for reading.
