Just by browsing through this, i didn't see anything on this so correct me if im wrong.

Bikes were used in ruby/sapphire to get to different areas, whether it be a secret base or deeper into the safari zone.  I would like to see bikes used for that purpose.  As so other ways of transportation i think it would be could but not necessary to use that.  There is only so much you can do before it becomes un-necessary and only for looks. 

Will you have running shoes also?

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?

Even though this game will and is attracting the younger audience, if you guys go too unrealistic (hamster balls) then that might discourage the older crowd to want to play just because they might not take PU that serious.

If it ever where implemented, then it probably wouldn't be till there where enough players playing to actually spread the word of how much of a good game it really is, and that the whole concept is all just in innocent humor.

i agree with Phosphorous this game is going to be fun and will have loads of players but going to far into transportation would unapealing to older crowds.

In other words, this is a pokemon game, not FLYFF

personally I'd say it wold be best to have basic modes of transportation, such as, bike(possible acro and mach), maybe a skateboard, roller blades(ice skates for icy areas), maybe a snow mobile for snow cover areas but anything more might just be over kill, but again just my two cents :)

I would define those as the primary modes of transportation.
There should also be secondary modes: planes, trains, and automobiles, large boats.

But you're right, much more, is too much more.

yea I completely forgot about secondary modes of transportation, but anyway secondary transportation shouldn't be player controlled maybe, it should be a path finding type AI thing where it will take you to where you ask it to bring you, like rent a car, or buying a plane ticket

If a secondary transportation was implemented, I agree with Amphy that it should be a set path that it travels. Just say you can go to a port and take a ship to 3 other ports, and you buy whichever ticket you want to whatever city you are headed to.

I'm not really a big fan of fly (for our game) since it's going to be an adventure game. So if you can fly everywhere you're missing out on the real adventure and you'll miss nice quests and stuff.

IF we would implement fly, I think it can only be used on the isle where you are so you can't fly from isle 1 to isle 2.

Teleport will only send you to the latest PokéCenter. If that PC is NOT on the current island you'll be send to the nearest one.

Your the creator its your ultimate decision. Flying would be nice and everything but yea you would miss out on a lot of things and since you put so much work and detail into making your maps why just click a button to skip all the work lol. Pointless if you wanna put it that way.
