Releasing Pokemon
« on: February 03, 2010, 12:26:21 AM »
I believe that when a pokemon is released from their party into the wild then they should actually become "Wild." As in, you release a level 43 Gengar and it then becomes able to catch at random (like Legendarys in Gold, Silver, and Crystal). Also make them trackable like in the other games, but when released into the wild they become more rare and better levels and such. But only a certain amount of released pokemon can be released (because then some one could release all of their pokemon and catch them back at better levels). I think this could add suspense to the game and make it more fun.

it would kinda defeat the purpose of letting the pokemon go if your just going to catch it later. It would be cool but pointless.

lol at Spirits comment, and yeah I don't see the point on wasting time to make those sprites when they can go to something else.


Still a pretty random fun idea.

It'd be a neat idea if you could catch Pokemon that had been previously released...whether they originally belonged to you or not.  :P

"Oh look, you just caught [insert name here]'s old Charmander!"


Although I don't really understand why players would release their Pokemon with so much space on those computers to begin with.

I'm not too keen on this idea...

chaosdestroyer, I think that you would have to track it without any map, just walk in the hope that it would appear to you.
No one can go back and change a bad beginning; but anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

Currently playing Pokemon XY/ORAS/Shuffle and Clash of Clans and testing out PokemonRevolutionOnline and Dragonmon Hunter....
Also, forum notification emails are not getting in my inbox... again...

Nope not going to happen. If you release a Pokémon it just vanishes.
