years do pass in these games, and in the first one Oak does specifically say that there are lots of unknown things in the world of pokemon.

That there are magically hundreds of new Pokemon out of nowhere, in a world with sophicated enough technology to be fully discovered and researched lol.

There was no compiled list of pokemon until Red and then Gold completed their Pokedex projects. So, it's entirely possible that people know about species, it's just that they haven't been seen ands studied.

EDIT: Plus, they're different regions. Different animals live in different regions, and you have a different variation on the species in different regions.

But we wouldn't go to Africa and then be all of a sudden amazed that there are lions there.

Well, there are 5, at last count.

Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Orre, and Shinou. World's a pretty big place, they could probably squeeze quite a few more in there.

That's an urban myth.

In X D, apparently there are some, but you can't catch them because they're endangered. Or something.

And nobody seems surprised, in the games at least, to see Hoenn pokemon, despite the main character and his/her father moving to Hoenn from Johto.

You know the show and the game seem to send two different messages to me. The game seem to say the only way to be a Pokemon Master to collect every Pokemon that exist and doesn't exist while also buying the trading card games, lunch box, clothes, denchers. While the show tells me it doesn't matter how many Pokemon I got, at long as I have the power of friendship, and a Pokemon that defies all logic.

Yeah, the power of friendship, while a nice message for the kiddies, detracts from the whole cockfight aspect of pokemon, which drew me in.

Nothing appeals to kids better then beating up and then enslaving creatures in tight spaces, and after that making them fight for your own personal power and glory.

*Wants a game like Pokemon and The Unoly War mixed where when you choose a Pokemon, you get to control it yourself and there are tons of factors like the show you can use*

What I want to see in Pokemon Battle Revolution:

I want a fully realized pokemon region in 3D. I want a character creator, and wi-fi battles. I want to combine the power of friendship model with battling, turning the entire region into a Safari Zone.

For example, you pause the game to check your pokedex. Your character sits on the ground, and pulls it out. Once you put it away, there's a caterpie crawling on your legs, trying to get to your bag's Berry Pouch. From here, you use the Wiimote. You can pet the caterpie, maybe use a berry on it. It likes you, and then you pull out a pokeball, and it willingly accepts you.

Naturally, there are different ways to befriend different pokemon. You might have to earn a kangaskhan's respect by battling it, for example.

Also, I don't mean to entirely ditch the weaken-and-capture method used in previous generations. This method would just be another way to play.

Well you probably could attack it (theoretically, at least), but then you'd be out one pokemon, wouldn't you?

you have been keeping track of Rith haven't you?

I still say a tactics style pokemon game would rule.

That's what I mean. You could attack it and capture it as normal. But you could also capture it this way. It might, I dunno... affect the pokemon's personality, I guess.

EDIT: And yeah, I've been watching the Johto thread. That's where the idea came from.

Going back a couple of pages...
WTF.

Juron Pilo, it was a JOKE. Based on your NAME.

Juron Pilo was the roman centurion who struck Jesus while he was on the cross with a spear, turning it into the Lance of Longinus...
which later turned was used as a reference in the anime and manga Neon Genesis Evangelion as a spear big enough to go into orbit of the fucking MOON.

I don't know anything about your character and I don't care, I was only trying to add a little levity to things around here....
Mrs. Limburger : Crashing, and banging, all kinds of weird noises. Howling, moaning, frightful grunting, things falling out of closets, all over the place!

Peter : Sounds like my weekend.
