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.

I think character customizations is completely plausible. They have been quiet about a lot of things for this release, but the fact that they haven't given another video that shows the character implies that they are hiding something. I bet you anything that the next time they show the characters, they are going to look completely different. I'm not expecting the customization to be huge, but I could see it being on Harvest Moon A New Beginning's level, where it's just clothes, skin, and hair.
 
Huh... I kind of hope there is character customization. And that kind of makes me hopeful that contests are back c:
 
A long with character customization I hope they give us the ability to customize skin tone. Unfortunately, I really don't see game freak doing this.

They did it with Battle Revolution, so I see no reason why they wouldn't for a main series game. At the very least, they will put skin tone in the localized version like they did for Battle Revolution.
 
Personally I think the customisation (if any of course) will just involve adding collected accessories or changing clothing colours for the set boy/girl character, rather than a more in-depth Sims style affair.
 
Probably just setting my hopes and expectations too high but I want an in-depth Sims style affair. I want purple hair and snazzy clothes :/
 
As far as trainer customization goes, I don't think game freak is going to take it to the extreme. obviously their going to be outfit changing(hopefully we can wear the outfits of past protagonist) and hair color maybe the slandered hair colors like black,blonde, and brown. and for skin tone, maybe...maybe not.
 
Okay new subject sorry, but are personalities still in the game? I am not talking about natures but rather the "Often gets lost" or the "Rather mischievous". Apparently it tells which stats will grow easily as states by Nintendo. Now I don't know if this means x1.5 EVs or a hint at future IV because it is a bit vague.

I found this info in the pokemon Platinum guide book and national pokedex.
 
I'm pretty sure they'll keep characteristics.

But they effect IVs, not EVs. So say you had a pokemon that had a characteristic of "Loves to eat." It's highest IV would be HP.
The only thing characteristics do is determine what IV will be the highest for that individual pokemon. That's really as far as it goes.

It's still useful though. IV breeding is part of the game and it'd probably break a few things if they removed it.
 
Lol ok so first I breed my ralts for hours to no end to get it a modest nature, then I breed for hours on hours to get it a good personality. Is there any way to control personality?
 
Personality means nothing, it's just an indication of which IV is the best. If you're asking if there is a way of controlling IVs...the answer is yes. You can pass down a specific IV from each parent using a Power Item equipped on that parent. The best way to get perfect IVs is to RNG abuse.
 
For some reason every time people brought up character customization on a pokemon forum I visited at the time X and Y came out, all the users screamed "NO IT WOULD BE THE SIMS AND POKEMON IS NOT THE SIMS."

Personally, I wouldn't want it to be like the sims either but just giving us the option to decide what our character looked like at the start of the game would not turn pokemon into the sims.

And here I am just wishing they'd make another pokemon snap game. D: IT WOULD BE PERFECT WITH THE WII U PAD IT WOULD BE LIKE A CAMERA AND YOU COULD USE IT TO LOOK AROUND AND TAKE PICTURES.

I just. Guys I really just want to take pictures of pokemon and have Oak tell me I was so close again. ;-;

Me too! I love Snap, but I can't play the old one anymore. I can beat the game in like 3 hours, and I want a new challenge. I'm honestly surprised they didn't use Pokemon Snap as a release game for the 3DS. So many opportunities to abuse the 3D... oh well. Hopefully, the Wii U will bring something.
 
I want to take pictures of every single pokemon! EVERY SINGLE POKEMON.

I agree! There could be 50+ courses, and they can come up with creative ways to make the new Pokemon appear.

Like, you would have to make Cherrim turn into its sunny form to take a picture.
 
A Pokemon Snap attraction should be included in X and Y. Like a PokemonSnap Amusement Park (not good at naming stuff) and you would go around in the different places in your vehicle thing (don't remember if it had a special name in Pokemon Snap) and every single Pokemon would be included.

Or just a sequel would be nice.
 
I don't get why people don't want custom trainers. I for one do. I'm tried of being represented a pokemon ace online.
