Allow all Pokemon out of their ball?

[Haddez]

I think it would be cool if you could let all your Pokemon out of their ball but only in certain areas.

Like in the anime when they are at a beach or a field (or something similar) they let the Pokemon out of their balls to play with each other and maybe go for a swim. This would allow the happiness of the Pokemon go up faster.

There could also be special areas, where Pokemon could practice using moves and over time their moves would slowly become stronger, or they could attempt to learn moves so they get them at an earlier level. A little like in the anime when Pikachu learns Iron Tail from practicing on rocks.

I know this idea would take a while to be implemented and the current Pokemon following you around is buggy but IMO it would be a cool idea.

If you are on CO-OP you and your friends Pokemon could play with each other too.

This sounds fun. You might need to add limits as to how often it could be used so it won't get abused, though...

I like the idea but I feel like it'd be something that should be implemented a lot later, because all of this would end up causing a lot of bugs.

That would be pretty fucking leggit, i like the idea but yeah it would cause a lot of bugs, no offence...

If this is to happen at all, there should be designated spots where this is possible (as it happens with Cameron in HG/SS and his photos). While move learning could be difficult to implement (there's move tutors for that), the places could have different effects (train up EVs, gain happiness, chance to find items...). It might not work as he says, but it does work.

 

[Riff]

That sounds quite interesting aswell :0

I like that idea, but it was never really put into HG/SS. I can't speak for any moderators, but I don't know if they will stray to far from the original gameplay.

I can see this breaking game elements easy. Stick to one thanks.

 

[Colin_Mg]

Like it but it would be something to add much later in the game.
Also would they follow you like a conga line ?

 

[Riff]

conga#

 

[razzguy]

yes

 

[Arathock]

remember how in old gold/silver you could put your pokemon in the daycare and visit them there in the pen, maybe it could have certain areas where you could let them all out in a way that's sort of like that, interesting idea though. by the way it would be pretty cool if you could visit them in the pen in this.

 

[Chopter]

I would rather be able to pick what pokemon stay out of the pokeball, have it not set to the first in the party. All pokemon would be.... hectic to say the least..... anyway, how would that work? a giant conga line?

I think this is a pretty good idea. It shouldn't break the game. I am assuming you mean the 6 Pokemon in your party. Now as for where you can do it, I'd say your bedroom, secret base, Pokecenter, Pokemart, and the National Park. In the Pokemart, your Pokemon will walk to items they want and you can talk to them and it will say "Pikachu looks interested in these Potions. Maybe I should buy some". When you leave a building or when you get in a battle your pokemon are automatically back inside their pokeballs (when you get in a battle your first pokemon will just walk up just like in HG/SS) and this will also increase happiness like someone stated above.

 

[Lilligant]

That would be good, but there is a lot of programming involved.
