Game could definitely use some work, but I really can't wait to see this when it's a lot more polished. This isn't like a lot of other fan Pokemon games that are just oddball, I do have to say, it's kind of fun. I can also see the focus is on PvP which I don't mind. The graphics look pretty good for a fan game as well, and the one song that's in the little singleplayer demo thing is calm and relaxing.
This is definitely mainly a multiplayer type game right now, although you can fight a few CPUs and catch Pokemon in the mini singleplayer mode.
Yeah, I'm liking the graphics and the music to this.

Way too much hyperbole in this thread for a very unpolished, and to be honest, not very fun fangame.

This is what I've always wanted. This would be so god on the Wii u,being able to point on the touch screen where you want to attack instead of using a mouse would be ideal. I would definitely buy a Wii U for a game like this.

Bubububu it's a thousand times more innovative than every Pokemon game combined, and it knocks X and Y's sub-NES graphics into the stone age!

why does this look better than every pokemon game in the last 10 years?

They discussed this topic on Retronauts this week. Basically, as long as you don't make any money off of this, they'll leave you alone.
Play it, it's not.

The idea of making a real-time Pokémon battle system for a spinoff game's been in my head for ages. This isn't that much like what I had in mind, but it looks great for a fangame. Just wish I could put this into Unity and not need to use an .exe.

Perfect.
Jk, but I've always thought if they ever do a reboot I wouldn't mind if they just focus the game around gen 1 or 1 and 2. A minimal amount of pokemon to deal with so they can focus on more of the actual gameplay stuff.
No bro, let's be fair; X and Y look like DS games.

They already do focus on the gameplay.
This is what we should be getting instead of Pokemon Rumble.
Seriously. Nintendo's efforts with Rumble is embarrassing

Just installing. Do I get to choose which Pokemon I start off with, or is it only 3 starters?

You know what I'm saying. Notice the word reboot, as in there would be all new gameplay, preferable in 3D. I would rather them put more resources into making the new gameplay systems work and building the world than coming up with character models and other details for almost 700 different pokmeon.

Isn't this essentially every Pokemon game combined? Regular Pokemon with a mix of XD, Mystery Dungeon, Ranger, Pokepark, Rumble and whatever that game is with the NFC toys.

I'm not saying they should or will, I was just saying that if they ever go with a fleshed-out 3D RPG on home consoles that maybe for the first one they just narrow it down to 150-250 pokemon and focus on everything else, which is what this fan-made game decided to do.
Not that I think it will ever happen.

It'd almost certainly cost a shitload of money to develop, a shitload of money to maintain, and MMOs tend to be extremely risky nowadays to begin with.
With mainstream games, however, they can give GF a much smaller budget, would only have to pay for some servers (as opposed to GMs, developing new content to keep players playing, etc.), and new mainstream games will ship like 15+m while third versions/remakes will get at least 7m.
And yes, even a Pokemon MMO will be risky. Most Westerners spend most of their Pokemon time by themselves, even if they do occasionally dabble in trading or battling. In other words, a big part of the appeal in the West is the single player campaign. Meanwhile, in Japan there's a thriving local play scene in addition to single player. In other words, there's no guarantee that either of these audiences would be thriving for an MMO.
Adding online features to the mainstream Pokemon games is an infinitely safer route to take, really. I don't blame them - in recent memory most MMOs have traditionally not gotten traditional Pokemon-level profits. And no, slapping Pokemon on something doesn't guarantee amazing sales. See: Pokemon spin-offs.

Nintendo can't even get account systems right. Hell, it took them this long just to get an actual infrastructure going. You really think they would be competent enough to manage an MMO?

Short and sweetI like it. There are a lot of things needing work, like animations and better hit detection for Pokéballs and attacks. For that matter, my cursor moves too slow to beat Rattata with Pidgey, which fucking sucks shit. And the music's needlessly repetitive, a demo should have least a few tracks.
Pokémon battles with zoning and a limited action meter are going to be so fun when this gets an update. I love deflecting projectiles and using Smoke Screen to zone. Now just add more complexity to the battle system and I'll be a happy man.

Lol c'mon. This game is good fun for 15 minutes. nothing more.
That because is a an early demo (more of a tech demo.. demonstrating a few ideas)
Its a tech demo/proof of concept. its not meant to be fun past those 15 minutes....

this would be so great on WIi U with your 4 attacks mapped to ABXY and stuff like jumping, running, flying, and dodging on the shoulder buttons
Yep. They also don't want to do an MMO. I think a lot of people forget this.

It probably has to do with a lack of talent and their current formula being so succesful.

I want your DS. The cities and the battles in X and Y are leagues above anything I saw in any DS game.
