Major/Minor Problems From The Real Pokemon Games

Hello! Today I am here to tell you guys some things that can be added to, fixed, or just simply made better. I have three major and 1 minor problem, Also I have two things that they could add in the future that might be game-changing if nilllzz decides to add it. So lets get started!

1: You don't get the choice to switch pokemon when your opponent's pokemon faints!
One of the major mechanics of battles in the real games is the fact that when you make a pokemon faint, but yours is low on health, you can switch out so that you don't have to take a hit on the pokemon you switch in to.

2: In a battle, there are no animations for the 3d pokemon. I KNOW that they are probably working on it as you read this, but it is such a massive part of battling when you get to see the sheer awesomeness of a hyper beam or a sheer cold. Also, if they could just add maybe a jumping animation by bending the legs, extending them again while the sprite moves up, then comes down would be SO satisfying just to know that your pokemon isnt in a deep sleep or trance while you are battling.

3: No Running Shoes. You know that guide gent figure you see when you enter cherrygrove city for the first time! Yeah, that guy? Well if you have played ANY pokemon games before this one, he serves virtually NO purpose, excepting the fact that in the real game of gold or silver, where he gives you running shoes! You Know, those magical things that make you go like twice your speed? While I can see why you don't really need those in this game, but it could be useful if you don't have fly yet.

Minor Problem: This may just be me, but for me, there was no bellsprout in the bellsprout tower, I walked it there for what seemed like hours, but only rattatas. You may be wondering, Why is this such a problem? It is a problem because if you go into a house in Violet City, there is a guy that will trade you a bellsprout for, guess what, an ONIX! Not only is onix one of my favorite pokemon, but i would help SO MUCH in the gym battle. If anyone else gets bellsprout in the bellsprout tower, please tell me.

Now this is where i start suggesting some cool ideas to the creators of the game.

1: What if, in later updates, when you add the different regions, they were all connected? Like for example, in the beginning of the game, you could choose the region you want to start out in, and then, in some random place, you got to fly or boat to a whole different region like Kanto, Johto, Sinnoh, or Unova! (I think I forgot one there).

2: What if you could choose a mode, Called Rumor mode, where all the rumors and theories came together in the games. Just to list a few, Buryman
, The Radio Tower
, and some more random ones
.

Thanks for reading!

All of those key points are either intentional, previously in the game and are now a priority to fixing (battle system kind of screwed that up), or just simply not completed yet. Remember that this game is still in it's extremely early development stages, and some features are expected not to be here yet.

Major #1:
We recently upgraded the battle system so some features have yet to be finished don't worry we plan to include it(however beware that you can turn this off by selecting a different difficulty or battle style so even if it is implemented it might not seem like it)

Major #2:
Yes we are working on it!
a few of the models actually have animations but we havent yet gotten the game to get the animations from the models and display it. Nillzz will be working hard to get it ready soon ;)

Major #3:
Running shoes were not in gen 2 and we have no real plan towards them atm but i am mostly sure we will do them eventually.

Minor:
There never were nor will be any bellsprouts in bellsprout tower
the tower gets its name not by having bellsprouts but because "Ancient Lore" says that the center pole was made from the stalk of a giant bellsprout
you can catch bellsprouts in nearby routes

Thought #1:
We have plans to allow you to have one save yet still explore all the regions.
We wont go into them here but dont worry it will happen ;)

Thought #2:
You could make one if you want but we wont likely give direct support to them:

All models are currently un-animated and take a huge amount of time to just create an idle animation. However i am working on it :) There are progress reports on everything, just look around and you might find some info on the forums.

For the rumor thing, there is actually GameMode support. That means that one can modify the original maps and scripts and so on to make a whole new story. Once finished you can upload it to the Resources page of this forum so others can play it too. It would need some serious time and dedication in order to actually make something good, but Pokémon3D supports a wide variety of customization.
All the information needed to create GameModes are found in the wiki, and if you have further questions, you can ask on the forums, we will always help you ;)

We won't run out of ideas any soon. ;)
But if you have any suggestions just make a thread and post it in the Feedback/suggestions forum and we'll read it sooner or later.

loopable idle animations generally only take about 10-15 minutes?
does your program not autofill poses?

Each animation takes some time to be created. There are currently about 259 pokes available in the game, and more coming with each update. So be patient, it's a bit too much for 1 person to make the models and animate them.

Coleman is comenting because he is the SECOND person who is working on these models
Specifically:
Colemen is a modeler for Pokemon 3D and his work has gone into the most recent and future updates
