Title: Pokemon Dead
Post by: Reafer on December 30, 2011, 09:30:21 PM
If like in Pokemon, where Red is the Hero and Pokemon CAN die, would you be able to continue playing Pokemon if your team was able to die and NOT come back? Could you honestly say that you would continue playing?

No, it would make the game to annoying.

Having to EV train pokemon every time one died...

chansey that.

It'd be just like doing a Nuzlocke run, but you can catch new pokemon. So no, I probably wouldn't since I've already done a Nuzlocke and have no need to go through that again.

You know that you pokemon doesn't die in the end of battle, right?

It only faints which sounds odd by itself

Hes saying what if they died instead of fainting.

I would really hate that especially because what if you get KOed with a random critical and its a pokemon youve been working on/ training. Plus, that functino gets kind of annoying like in Fire Emblem, but i gotta admit, it will make the game strategically harder.

I would get very frustrated if this happened, but I would still play.

Also if they could die.  What would you do if you lost the first battle with your rival.

You'd be screwed.

No pokemon, no money and no pokeballs.

Sounds great!

I might try it, only I wouldn't want them to die whenever they're taken out. I mean, maybe if they get repeatedly beaten down they'd be at the risk of dying, but not every single time their health reaches zero. Or maybe they die if they remain fainted for too long.

Did anyone remember Revive at all?

Then what would you be suggesting? That they die and they can be revived? If that's so, how is this different from fainting? ???

Just saying that people are freaking out way to much over this. It's funny, but for revive I want to see what players come up with.

What are you even talking about now?

Assuming pokemon death is implemented like that, revives won't have any reason to be there.

what if pokemon died of old age after a specific amount of time.

If pokemon would die then we will have to EV train them again and again.But i would still play.

Nope.
Heck NO!
And uh... what is the word I am looking for? NO!

If you feel like it, you can play the game like that, if a pokemon faints, you release it as if it died, and just catch a new one. While you do that, the rest of us will play the game our way. I don't like the idea of pokemon dying in game, it would be a waste of time.

Cause when you reach the Elite Four and you try and battle them and all of your pokemon die, then you would have to start over and try and get new pokemon and train them for the Elite Four again.

This is not an idea or suggestion...

Try KILL THE POKEMON game if you like this idea.

  Maybe Pokemon could die, but death would not take the place of fainting.  Instead, maybe there could be factors that contribute to the death of Pokemon.  Think about it, all living things die, and in-game, Pokemon are considered living things, so allowing them to die would make sense.  But a Pokemon doesn't just die after losing a battle, it takes a long time.  Maybe a Pokemon could die after fainting so many times (This number would be set pretty high), but also things like poison, burns, and paralyze could contribute to the death of a Pokemon.  Think of it this way, each of these things has like a tube that can fill up, and when they all are completely full, the Pokemon dies.
Faints:||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Poisons:||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Burns:||||||||||||||||||
Paralyzes:|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
  Don't worry though, there can be a person(people) that wipe all of these bars clean.  It's just an idea, but maybe it could work.  Opinions?


Weeeeeee white ink!

I like that idea they can play their way while everyone else plays theirs.

Honestly pokemon being able to die, is the dumbest thing ever.  I mean I'm gonna spend hours finding the right nature, breeding the correct IV's and moves, and then spend more time training the dam thing.  chansey pokemon dying.  I'm not gonna do that poop over again and again and chanseying again because chansey it, a pokemon died.

Chansey that!

Remember that there probably be as much competitive battlers as that and I don't think they would care either, hence the thread here ::)

this game is aimed for kids, i dont think they'd incorporate a "dying" mechanic to the game.
Title: Re: Pokemon Dead
Post by: Jodah on January 11, 2012, 03:15:17 AM
What if it was an option (perhaps unlockable after a certain event).  Or there were only certain moves that did it, and even then it was an option after the faint sequence.  It could also be paired with a sort of morality thing.  That is something I have wanted for awhile in Pokemon, where you could actually make choices that would affect how the game progressed.

Achievement Unlocked! Now your pokemon can die!

...Doesn't exactly sound right.

I cannot support this at all. Like Bing said, no one wants to put that much effort into a pokemon, just to have it die later. This would only make sense for players like me, who don't bother with all of that EV training and Natures, and just pick a pokemon and train it. And even then, no one would like it.
