PvP battles, please make them fun....
« on: February 05, 2010, 12:51:25 AM »
In any Game of pokemon there are certain things that just make tournaments gay, and any PvP for that matter.
I know i asked about this in chat 1 day but im gonna make a bigger deal about this.
In a PvP battle(we aren't talking about NPC's so chill questers) you should not be allowed to use potions, full heals, any battle items, nothing. It is how the game is made if you ever battled a friend on gen1, (I think for 2-4 too) and it will be gay, tedious, and just not very poke-ish to let this occur. so im extremely pleased that there are no legendaries because for obvious reasons, but there also should be no items(hold items are allowed) in PvP. ;D

I'm sure they're already planning on doing this since that's the way it is in DPP competitive play.

Oh wow i agree with you totally then they should be 100% disallowed.  The richer player will always win...

What if they give a limited amount of times a player can use Full Restore. This way the rich won't always win.

Yeah that would make it a bit more skill than anything else, so I wouldn't want items interfering even if I was the one loosing lol

I think a battle becomes more interesting when you are allowed to use items (such as potions). But I do think there should be a limit on the usage so you can't use like 30 potions in a battle.

i agree with being abe to use them(otherwise the elite 4 wouldnt have got beaten in my DPP/Ruby) but 30 potions in a PvP(which would be a new feature allowing this) is way tooo much. Sorry but i wanna stick to the Classic, like KRS, Rakim, NaS, Kanye

Well about the 30 potions, I was giving an example on what should NOT happen.

Think you should be able to use 6 items in each battle. Then it's up to you which item to use on what Pokémon. This should give a whole new spin on battles.

sorry Mr_Dark i misread that, okay we are on a similar page, 6 is 6 too many but it's better than 30 too many or even worse, sideways 8 too many :)

An other option is to allow to use the same number of items as you have Pokémon in your party.

Say you have 3 Pokémon in your party, then you can use 3 items in battle.

I think this would work better.

Or maybe it should be the other way around - 1 pokemon = 6 items; 2 pokemons = 5 items... etc.

This would make casual battles more fair since different players may have less then 6 Pokemon in their party during more early parts in the game.... in a nutshell, it would be like a handicap in golf.
