If you use a move like Switcheroo or Trick, do you lose your item permanently? I googled it. Not coming up with an answer.

Trick in generations III-IV it would switch permanently

In generation V however items would not switch permanently, only in wild battles it would. -bulbapedia

not totally sure about Switcheroo though...
 
I think Shaymin is the only event legendary that I have yet to obtain. I never got the special pichus that were distributed for Heartgold/Soulsilver, but I didn't particularly want them.

Wait, I haven't had Arceus, and I missed the Meloetta event. :/
 
I hope they make another sort of RPG pokemon game in the future for Wii U where you could obtain some of those legendaries. If it was like poke park, but with 4 moves and all playable pokemon it would be great. The legendaries could be super hard side missions in which you would have to have really powerful, unique pokemon to take down.
 
I want something like another Colosseum. Maybe not with the shadow Pokemon because it was kind of hard to make teams, but with some other gimmick. The Colosseum games are probably my favorite spin-offs so far, and I wish they would make them again, because I feel like there is a lot of untapped potential in them. At the very least, I would prefer that to another Battle Revolution.
 
Battle Revolution was so flipping bad.


I liked Colosseum too, but I agree that if they make anything like that for the Wii U that they need to not use shadow pokemon. I mean, they could just as easily let you catch wild pokemon but I doubt that'd happen.
Even using pokemon you have caught in say, X and Y. Being able to transfer them over and use them would be good.
 
Battle Revolution should've just been called Pokemon Stadium 3 because then they would've added minigames and that would actually make the game fun.
 
I did find online Battle Revolution fun for a while but even those online features were pretty rubbish. I remember the initial trailer for it was fantastic with moves doing damage to the arena and Pokemon actually hitting each other, the finished product was a huge disappointment.
 
The thing was that I actually liked some of the gimmick stadiums. Like I loved the one where everyone had to mix their Pokemon with the other ones. However, they didn't come up with enough to separate it from the battle frontier. Stadium was fun because of the mini games and all the extra stuff you could do like taking pictures. Battle Revolution just felt like a Diamond and Pearl add-on.

In all truth, that is what it was. It was just a 3D battle simulator where you could fight with your pokemon. I mean it is based of Diamond and Pearl's battle system. It could have been a lot better if it was: A) More like pokemon stadium or B) Non existant. I'm not trying to say that its bad; I just mean that it needed a lot of improvement for it to have been good.

I agree. It could have been a really awesome game, especially with the character customization, but then they just made it a simple battle simulation when it could have had so many features.

However, I'm hoping that they've learned, and they will do something awesome for the Wii U.

Might have played it longer then instead of farming it for the event Pokemon. I was so glad when I finally beat all the different stadiums, especially that Sunset one. Any replayability was killed too once the hackers got online, as if the Legendary All Stars and disconnectors weren't bad enough.

I do hope they do something like Colosseum or XD on Wii U, really enjoyed those and they last longer than Battle Revolution did.
 
Yeah maybe something like My Pokemon ranch but with updated graphics, an actual story, and battling of some sort? It would be very neat to have a Pokemon Paradise where your pokemon could roam free and battle. The whole premise could be aquiring items that could be used in game for very special things. (Secret locations and such) It could run on the story, 3 random daily missions, and 1 community mission? The story could be like in all the Pikachu movies where there is a legendary or some pokemon causing trouble. The daily missions could be like "Rescue the lost Seedot from the cave" or "Gather the lost Oran berries". They would all have fighting between pokemon and maybe a bonus time challenge? The community mission would be like "Collectively defeat 100,000 Scraggy" or something of that sort.

My main idea is contolling the pokemon rather than the trainer. It would make people a whole lot more attached to their pokemon.
 
I have no idea if this has been mentioned in this thread before but yolo

anyway i came across this video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MChQfBdjMV8

and he says he wants character customization (tbh I have never even thought of this before and he's like 'many pokemon fans have wanted this' #oops) - but then he mentions the character looking into the mirror, and the sunglasses being removed in different gameplay seems plausible character customization might appear - although I understand that it might not appear, or be very limited.
