Let's Make a Pokemon Game!

Jello pitches a hypothetical Pokemon game to anyone who will listen to him for thirty minutes.

I'd probably pick the Water Version of this game. Usually I'd pick a grass starter, but I can't pick that version because it means I don't get to hang out with Grass Buddy, who is obviously the cutest one.

The most fun part of this was coming up with unique Gyms for this region. We ended up cutting a bit about a "Gen 1" Gym where all the mechanics swap back to Gen 1 rules, but only when you're inside the Gym. That means psychic has no weaknesses, speed determines critical hits, and the back-lighting on the console turns off. In the middle of the battle your mom comes in and tells you to stop playing and you have to explain to her you can't turn the game off in the middle of a trainer battle.


What gyms would YOU make?

Idea for baby gym: the gym leader is technically this old trainer but they are helping teach their granddaughter learn how to be a gym leader

You know there could be a team bad guy member that says “you’ll be sleeping with the fishes” and so they only have water Pokémon that use rest

[sockmonkeyenthusiast]

"Gyms are now based around different themes."
Me walking into the One-Hit KO gym: Why do I hear boss music?

“we’re getting rid of iv’s”
game freak making legends arceus: “write that down write that down”

“The three Professors are quirky, goofy, and fun, ”

Me: And obviously named after trees… right??

[ambertherockjohn]

I don't know why but I really want the bad guys to rhythmically snap when they're about to appear. Like you're in the middle of a shopping trip and the you just hear
Snap.. snap.. snap
And you know somethings about to go down

[tatefranklin]

Honestly, this is the most appealing sounding Pokemon game I've ever seen. Also those starters are super adorable.

Cement shoes gag: They steal your running shoes with intent to dip them in cement and toss them in a river so you can’t chase them anymore.

"Fire themed area, a Water one and a Grass one"
"The region is split into four different areas, I'm gonna call 'em counties."

Long ago, the four counties lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Fire Trainer attacked.

I want this to be a series. I need a “Let's make a Persona game” or “Let's make a Fire Emblem”, it's awesome.

[llunathelynx]

ok thanks now im in love with a game that doesn't even exist, ,

[ifrit]

There is a horrifying amount of stuff in this thats in Legends Arceus. Impressive jello.

[wangjian]

This sounds like a really well-run D&D campaign, but with Pokemon.

I want it.

Team mafia, and their Pokémon should have tiny mafia hats
The rival’s name is Boss man

On the extra 2 badges idea, i think it would be cool if you could use them to get good items/Pokémon. For example, a trainer is blocking a cave with an additional friendship bracelet and will only let you through if you have the 10th badge. It would provide an incentive to get the extra badges and reward the extra effort for getting it.

[AzulioSwoop]

Idea for the buddy from your own town: they end up being jerk rival from team bad guy bc they're mad the professor didn't give them a starter

[Finluz]

"Wow these recent Pokemon Games have been really linear."
>Sword and Shield revealed
>region is literally a straight line from the starting town to the league

[tiredadmiral]

I think the old man would be cranky talking about how he hated the new loud music, and wishes he could be soundproof like the whismer that live at blah blah to give you a hint.
