This is kind of hard to explain so I will just make a scenario.
Lets say a level has started and you have placed all you pokemon in there spots and the first wave appears on screen. If you click the first (or any other) wild pokemon that has appeared on screen the game will pause,( like when you click the menu button), a screen will appear, about the size of the menu screen, it will show a picture of the pokemon you clicked on. Depending on if you have caught it or not it will show more or less info. If you have caught it, it will show the following info. - pokemon picture, pokedex number, gender (if eggs are implemented this will really help), pokemon level, pokemon type and weaknesses, and maybe a short description. If you have not caught the pokemon it will show less info. - just pokemon picture, Pokemon name, level, and type (not weakness).
I am almost positive Sam is adding eggs in the future, so knowing the gender before catching would really help, and also it would tell you the level of the pokemon so you will know if your pokemon are strong enough, and knowing the type would help here too.
The main problem is this would be very hard to put into the game, but maybe Sam could make it a side project that he works on a little at a time.
Any thoughts..........

Maybe it could work like the current pokeballs, you click on the scan and hover it on the pokemon you want to know about.
All the coding shouldn't even take much like that.
I really like this idea, i hope it will get implemented, it would be really useful.

I like it, but the like rarekwiebus said, the screen is now already full with a lot of buttons. And it would make it harder to scroll through the screen, then you need to be sure to not click any of your pkmn and any of the wild pkmn, in levels like vermillion gym, that would be anoying.
Sorry for the bad English :P I got tired of putting that under my message XD
