10 Things We Want In Pokemon Generation 6

Better Pokemon design

After Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire, Game Freak just went crazy, giving us crappy and unimaginative and sometimes downright bizarre Pokemon designs. Yes, there have been some very good Pokemon in the last two generations indeed, be we’ve also got a trash bag Pokemon, a Pokemon made up two gears (pictured above), an ice cream cone, a chandelier and a whole lot of other “WTF?!” worthy stuff. Sure, generation 5 was a slight improvement over 4, but come on Game Freak, where’re your imaginative designs, with the likes of Charizard, Blaziken, Rayquaza, Groudon and other badass Pokemon? Give us some more of those, and we’ll be happy.

Better presentation


This is not one cutscene, rather a collection of several cutscenes from both versions.

Pokemon Black and White had sweeping camera angles, awesome bridges and cities to show off from impressive angles, some great cutscenes (like the one shown above), and other things we would never had imagined to see in a Pokemon game before. But with Black and White, Game Freak proved that they are ready to experiment. We’re hoping we see more of the cutscenes and the new, awesome camera angles in the new Pokemon games as we did in Black and White. Again, we’re hoping Game Freak were testing the waters with Black and White, and will go all out with Gen 6. Well, one can only hope.

Better interface

We loved Pokemon Black and White, but we will never understand why Game Freak removed the awesome touch screen interface that was incorporated in HeartGold/SoulSilver. The interface of HG/SS was awesome- one touch, and you could do all the fundamental stuff that was required in a Pokemon game- no using buttons and long winded menus. Everything was clean and crisp, and HG/SS were perhaps the first and only Pokemon games to make good use of the touch screen. We want Pokemon Gen 6 to see the return of the same interface- we don’t care if Game Freak changes it at all, because it was perfect as it was. Just bring it back.
