Opinions for Re-consideration

[Monkyw]

I am glad to have the opportunity to try this wonderful game. It has long been my wish that Pokemon can become an online game one day. While PRO's system is not identical with the official one, the changes are basically reasonable based on good concerns. However, I think some concerns can be better addressed. I apologise if any of the following points has already been discussed.

 

1. Fly

Frankly speaking, Fly is very important in adventure in Pokemon world. The map is not small. More importantly, it would be inconvenient to go through all the battle field in order to go to certain cities. Having said that, a real trainer would really need to "walk" instead of flying with immediate effect. Therefore, the absence of Fly is justifiable. If it remains so, I think the system can be improved to address the concern that trainers may not want to be challenged by NPCs whom we have battled with. This is quite annoying. Is it possible to render it optional whether to re-battle?

 

2. Breeding

There is indeed real concerns if there is a breeding system like the official one. In particular, I think it would destroy the whole system of rarity. However, inheritance of moves is VERY valuable. Otherwise, there would be much more similarities between Pokemons of the same species. Breeding can significantly widen the variation. This is the fun of fostering our OWN UNIQUE Pokemon. It is not that absence of this system would render uniqueness impossible, but certainly more difficult. A secondary solution is to introduce random move in wild Pokemons which would be fair enough. In my opinion, it is more preferable to have a breeding system subject to temporal constraints. For example, one needs to wait for a week in real life time to have an egg; or one Pokemon can breed only once a week etc.

 

3. EV

This last point is more like my personal fantasy. I always wonder why it is almost impossible to have a super powerful Magikarp which can beat everyone else? I think there should be no cap on EV so that if one trains enough, any Pokemon can be strong enough to beat everyone else. This should fit more into the design of the Pokemon world. However, of course the formula will need to be changed. For example, log might be suitable.

 

Please feel free to discuss.
