Title: implementing the Move-teaching maniac and/or Move teacher?
Post by: ghostman50 on July 10, 2010, 02:21:58 PM
Move tutor (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Move_tutor)s and move relearner (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Move_relearner)s, are there any plans to implement this in PU?
 
Used search (using a variation of keywords) and was unable to find a topic on this.

Well, they were in all the other games, so I don't see why they wouldn't be in PU. To me, leaving the move tutor out would be like leaving out professsor [insert type of tree here], or mixing up what the starters would be, just for the hell of it.

Try reading the two linked articles or bringing out an authentic Pokemon Red, Blue, or Yellow. I can almost assure you that neither of these appear in the older games.
 
So it isn't too farfetched to complete the game without implementing this feature. But it wouldnt be a bad idea to implement.

I remember a move relearner in red...
But even so, if it was only left out in the older games, then it's more like leaving out the ability to run, or... more than six colors.

Move relearner in the RBY series? I never ran into one until I played RSE where Heart Scales were required in exchange.

Anyway, Move tutors and move relearners I think are essential. For a good team, the moves know by the pokemon on levelling up or through TMs are not always enough.

Nnnnggg... These letters to describe the generation are frustrating. The first time I saw RBY, I thought someone spelled ruby wrong while trying to emphasize it.

Anyway, I haven't played red in a few years, so I don't remember every detail. Hell, the only reason I played it three years ago was to see if you really could get mew on the nugget bridge.

But's it's easier to describe them...

RBY - Red/Blue/Yellow
GSC - Gold/Silver/Crystal
RSE - Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald
FRLG - FireRed/LeafGreen
DPPt - Diamond/Pearl/Platinum
HGSS - HeartGold/SooulSilver
BW - Black/White

G/S/C - Gold/Silver/Crystal
R/S/E - Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald
FR/LG - FireRed/LeafGreen
D/P/Pt - Diamond/Pearl/Platinum
HG/SS - HeartGold/SooulSilver
B/W - Black/White

Added Slashes, not as confusing, is it?

Only Slightly.

'You' is more time consuming than 'u', but all the cool kids type 'you' anyway.

I don't like text talk in forums. It makes it more difficult to read, so it's more time consuming the other way round. If there was a limit in the length of a post, then I'd have understood, but seriously, there is virtually no limit to the amount you can type, unless you want to post a whole book of several hundred pages, which I doubt people would like to read.

Move Tutors were not in R/B/Y, G/S, or Ru/Sa, Whereas crystal, the first incarnation of the movetutor, only had 3 moves, Thunderbolt, Ice Beam, and Flamethrower.


it's really not too far fetched to think there might not be tutors, they could prolly just as easily make more TMs.


As for the move relearner, that would be a great addition since some pokemon can only get certain moves through the relearner.

Wouldn't a move relearner be the same as a muve tutor, then...? I mean, that's what I'm thinking about right now. Basically gulpin from mystery dungeon, minus the move linking.

Move Tutor is like a reusable TM giver, Move Relearner lets a pokemon learn moves they have had access to either through levelup or evolution. Some moves are only available to a pokemon THROUGH move relearner for various reasons, such as a Togekiss learning Aura Sphere, or a legendary learning moves from before the level you can catch it at(which obviously has no impact here)

I think this is a good idea, but it is not necessary. I would rather have PU out earlier than wait another month for unnecessary extra features to be added on. This could probably be in an update sometime after the game is released, I would like to see it in the game at some point, though.

But of course. I don't think anything recently suggested is going to be in the first open beta. I see open beta as having the best features suggested from a few months ago and back, and then everything after that being added on as we get closer to... whatever that thing is that comes after beta.

I believe the first move tutor ever was in Silver and Gold when there was this guy who taught headbutt to pokemon.

The old silver and gold of course.

Was it not a TM in Silver and Gold?

That means That the 1st Move tutor was in R/B/Y. TMs have been around since Day 1. So have Move Tutors.

This is true for 1 reason...

TMs and HMs are technically move Tutors.

Think of the move tutor as an actual NPC that does the teaching, not some purchaseable machine with magical powers.
