Okay, have I ever told you that my first ever Pokemon game was Pokemon Ruby? Well, Ruby was the first Pokemon game that I ever got (Though later I 'lost' it, I think someone took it, but I got another one this year in march).
It introduced my favorite Pokemon, Ralts, Kirlia, and Gardevour! I just love Hoenn and it's Pokemon, and my favorite character is May in the show, but I'm not here to go all fan-girly on it (I'll do that later), I'm here to talk, well, blog, about how I think there should be a sequel, not a remake, but a sequel.
I think they could add, or keep/fix-up, stuff like:
1. LaRousse City, a movie-exclusive place, it homes the Battle Tower in the show, so why not in the game? The Battle Frontier could be where it was in Emerald, and we could have LaRousse near Fortree City (I looked it up, and I think LaRousse is near Fortree in the show) and it could look a bit like this (not the best, if they added it, it would be like in the show, only it'd be in the game):
I was basing the looks off of how it looks in the movie.
2. Contests! No dressing up or dancing for us Hoenn people, it could be the same (Well, the primary judging, anyways), only in the 'Appeal' part of the contest you could be able to plan out one round, with three rounds in all, and use up to three moves to make your Pokemon look cool/smart/cute/tough/beautiful, then the moves would still have the affect they had only, now, you could watch them do their appeal (I would LOVE that, watching my Azumarill win her Beauty Contest)!
And maybe in the Master Rank Contest for one, or two, or three, or all contests, they could put the Pokemon coordinators Drew, Harley, and Solidad (And maybe May, but I don't know, the story line could bring her back into it, though they could make her be in contests and the story lines), I know lots of people would think that it's cool (I mean, who wouldn't want to be in a contest with them?)!
3. Story lines. Well, if this was going to be a sequel it would have to be different then R/S/E, I mean, unless May/Brendan found a Celebi, and went back in time (Which I really doubt), then the story would have to change! (Hmm, maybe in my free time I could write out what I think would be a cool story line...)
Their wouldn't only be changes to the story, but your rival too, and the gym leaders (Maybe), and then with their being even more Pokemon (Sinnoh and Unova anyone?) they could add a few, a FEW, Sinnoh Pokemon, because, honestly, Unova Pokemon in Hoenn? Seriously? And not to mention who are you going to be playing as? I mean, yeah, they could put 'Leaf' (The girl from LeafGreen and FireRed) there and give her a bit of a makeover and call her 'Lily' or 'Aqua/Magma' or something, but I think instead, if you pick male, you could be Max, or Max but slightly different (Because he wouldn't be nine/seven/however old he is in the show), and if you pick a girl, you could be...
Okay, I have no idea. Just give 'Leaf' the makeover already. Sigh.
5. The name, I mean, no offence to Black and White 2, but come on! Seriously? I think it could be something along the lines of 'Pokemon Magma/Aqua Ruby/Sapphire' in honor of teams Aqua and Magma.
Magma Ruby and Aqua Sapphire, or Aqua Ruby and Magma Sapphire? (I think the first ones!)
6. Dive, Secret Bases (Above ground), Pokerus, all the good stuff! I mean, you can't Dive in the other games (From what I know), and I, at one time, had Pokemon Pearl, and there were no above ground places to make a Secret Base (Well, there might have been, but honestly, I didn't play it much, it was a used game and I didn't want to restart (Level 100 Rayquza!), but I'm going with this), and Pokerus, I'm not sure if Pokemon is other games can get this, without a Pokemon from R/S/E going to it.
7. Team Aqua/Magma. Hello! They would HAVE to put them back in, I mean, if this is a sequel, then either they, the people who used to be in A/M, try to bring back Team A/M, while making sure Team M/A doesn't come back, OR both Aqua and Magma team up and make TEAM AIR (Or something), but that would be redundant because they both have different plans that clash, and I just can't see that.
So what do you guys think, Teams Aqua AND Magma, or TEAM AIR (Both Teams for me, 'TEAM AIR' just sounds stupid)?
If I have the time I may just write out what I think MR/AS (Magma Ruby and Aqua Sapphire) would be like. So until then.
