True point. They would need to strike a balance between serious and comical. I would prefer a much darker story with deaths and everything so I can blub like a baby when someone I care about dies. But that’s unlikely to happen…

I very much enjoy the idea of a female boss à la Cruella de Vil. Such a villain might be a little too comical for a primary antagonist, though. I think there would have to be some more sinister foe manipulating events behind the scenes for that idea to work without coming across as too campy or superficial. On the other hand, a lighter, less solemn story might be rather refreshing after the gravity of past generations’ plotlines.

Thanks! 🙂

Yeah I’ve actually just realized how much I like R/S/E, hopefully remakes aren’t too far away.

Galactic was way OTT, but then again it was a hard act to follow Magma/Aqua. As for Plasma, I loved the plot, but as you said the castle thing was random and stupid (though pretty epic nevertheless). I mean how do they build such a thing without planning permission, and without the league knowing about it? What kind of mechanics make it rise out of the ground etc? Perhaps I take Pokémon too seriously XD

Wow that’s an awesome idea! It is slightly risky since it is a gruesome idea for what is supposed to be a game for all ages. But it’s realistic enough, and no worse then realizing that Pokémon battling could be see as animal cruelty. I really, really like the idea, please apply for a job at Gamefreak 🙂

Sounds interesting :O I might check it out. Thanks.

Sorry if I spoiled anything 😛 I just assumed everyone has played the older games. My bad I’ll be more cautious next time.

I agree that it would have been much wiser to stop the production of Pokéballs and the like. The plot seems a bit weird, I mean why would he get N to start liberating the region? However it was probably because he wanted little resistance and a legendary to help him. N does the hard work then Ghetsis takes over and takes the legendary from him.

My personal favourates were Team Aqua/Magma, but thats probably because r/s/e are my favourite games 🙂

Team Galactic were interesting and I loved the admins, however the whole ‘taking over the universe’ thing was a bit much for a Pokemon game I thought..

I wasnt keen on Team Plasma at all in B&W.. Mainly because of the giant castle at the end of the game, I thought that was way to over the top and it just seemed really random :s Hopefully they’re a bit more exciting in B&W2.

I agree with what most people above me have said, the next team of villians needs a female boss! I thought perhaps the idea of a fashion designer who uses Pokemon skins to create her designs and wants to use the version legendaries to create the perfect Pokemon print design! However that might seem a bit gruesome for a Pokemon game haha!

That was not his plan. If you played the game you should know that he was just using this excuse to control N. He really wanted to control the world/region idk.
