(→Ruby and Sapphire or Emerald Remakes: fixed and reworded stuff and I realized that it would be better for a Emerald Remake in some senses. I hope Gen VI surprises us but also delivers RSE remakes.) |

'''Fly:''' As many of you know, Fly has remained the same outside of battle. You pick a spot and go, just like in all the Pokémon games and LOZ: A Link to the Past. I think in Gen VI it will be more like Surf or riding a bike, allowing people to fly and control the Pokémon midair. Imagine being able to soar over trees and other elements of the scenery. Imagine finding clearings in trees and being able to land in them and find items and rare Pokémon. So here's hoping that Fly will have a new interface that doesn't require selecting a previously visited spot. Naturally there would have to be some kind of block or obstacle to prevent a player from going too far, maybe wind gusts or currents? I know I would love to be able to fly over tall grass to avoid it, maybe have a meter that drains and forces you to let the Pokémon rest. | '''Fly:''' As many of you know, Fly has remained the same outside of battle.

About Me
Hi, I'm Chris. I'm old and the internet confuses me.
I'm white, heterosexual, catholic and republican. However, I also support the LBGT community and
I'm an artist, but I suffered some set backs which have effected my art.
My Pokémon
I typically catch male Pokémon; its not because of a preference or for prejudice reasons, but because that's what I mostly come across.
Disclaimer
Don't lay your hang ups on me, or get offended by what you see on this page. Its the internet, get over it. I know I'm a walking contradiction, but that's who I am.
Hopes for Gen VI
New Game Mechanics
Fly: As many of you know, Fly has remained the same outside of battle. You pick a spot and go, just like in all the Pokémon games and LOZ: A Link to the Past. I think in Gen VI it will be more like Surf or riding a bike, allowing people to fly and control the Pokémon midair. Imagine being able to soar over trees and other elements of the scenery. Imagine finding clearings in trees and being able to land in them and find items and rare Pokémon. So here's hoping that Fly will have a new interface that doesn't require selecting a previously visited spot. Naturally there would have to be some kind of block or obstacle to prevent a player from going too far, maybe wind gusts or currents? I know I would love to be able to fly over tall grass to avoid it, maybe have a meter that drains and forces you to let the Pokémon rest.
Ruby and Sapphire or Emerald Remakes
Now for my thoughts on a possible remake of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire...or an Emerald remake.
It use to be that everyone talked down to those who were hopeful of a remake of the Gen III BA games, but with X and Y coming to 3DS, Connectivity to the DS games are questionable.
The old arguments were that due to the Gold and Silver Remakes,HeartGold and SoulSilver; connectivity between the Gen IV and V; as well as the ability to send Gen III Pokémon to the Gen IV games, then again to the Gen V games to complete the dex, remakes of Ruby and Sapphire were unneeded. There are a number of flaws with this argument, but most of the argument originated on the interwebs...and we all know Internet Arguments are 100% fail. But let me explain the flaws anyways.
- You don't get a Pokémon back in return when you send Pokémon from the Gen III games to the Gen IV games, or Pokémon from the Gen IV games to the Gen V games. They're gone for good. Plus, to send Pokémon from a Gen III game to a Gen IV game, you need to have a Original DS or DSLite since the DSi and later dropped the GBA slot.
- Sending Pokémon from a Gen III game to a Gen IV game, and then to the Gen V games is tedious to begin with, adding yet another to the mix makes it just a pain in the butt in all aspects, and that if the Gen VI games are compatible to begin with. That is a lot of work to get a Latios from your RSE games to your new XY games.
- Even trading with people across the globe, there is no certainty you'll get the Pokémon you want with the moves you want. If you just want a Pokémon for the sake of getting a complete dex, that is fine, but if you want to use it in battle with certain moves, or breed it for certain moves...you might have some work ahead of you. More often or not, you might prefer to have more control over the Pokémon development and growth. Lets not forget that the Global Link censorship prevent certain Pokémon from being traded without a nick name, so that's another annoyance.
So with Hardware, software and general restrictions all around; there will defiantly be a need for RSE remakes to help complete the dex of the new X and Y Games. If anything, only B2W2 would be compatible to X and Y since they're newer, which means you would have to do some serious chain trading to get the Pokémon you want onto your new X and Y version games.
Now many of you might be thinking; "wait, they wouldn't remake all three games, just the original paired games." Well I won't argue with you there, but I am not saying they will to begin with. What I am saying is, that its possible they'd just make 1 remake. While its true the Pokémon franchise sticks to patterns, we have learned to expect the unexpected with the release of B2W2.
Everyone was assuming there would be a third version of the Gen V paired games; Pokémon Grey was highly anticipated. However, Gen V proved us wrong and instead came out with a new set of paired games; Black2 and White2. These games expanded on the generation, and were not just a slightly retooled version of the original paired games. Not only was Game Freak breaking the mold with this move, but we got entire new stories and the timeline took a 2 year leap to boot.
So believe me when I say that it would be just as likely for them to just remake one game (i.e. Emerald) then remake both Ruby and Sapphire. I know a lot of people kind of liked Emerald more than the other two, and Pokémon goes where the money is regardless of patterns.
The whole point of remaking previous games, other than giving them a chance at new audiences on better hardware is to help fill in the Pokédex of newer generations due to any and all lost of compatibility.
Despite still being Gen V games, B2W2 are not fully compatible with their prequels, so even on the same system a compatibility issue can arise.

Oh, and another thing that would be just plain awesome in a RSE remake...Space Exploration. I had almost forgot all about the space shuttle twin gym leaders; a remake of Ruby, Sapphire or Emerald could easily expand into letting the player explore outside of the Pokémon World in outer space!
Think about it, the whole premise of the Gen III is that Team Aqua and Magma are trying to make Earth better, but there is also elements that show and remind us there is a whole cosmos out there; not just the Earth.
Just think about Solrock, Lunastone Deoxys, Jurachi even Rayquaza; all Gen III Pokémon that are extraterrestrial in some way. Not to mention all the Gen I and II Pokemon with suspected Alien origins.

Now if only we can think of awesome names for the remakes. I can already guess there is a high probability of a Sapphire Remake would have something oceanic in its title...I can already think of a semi overused, somewhat corny name for an Emerald Remake. "ChaosEmerald " Yeah I know, ain't my fault Sonic got to it first! Anyways, here some ideas for names.
Ruby: CrimsonRuby; RusticRuby; GlimmeringRuby; ShimmeringRuby; ShinningRuby; SparklingRuby; LustrousRuby; RadiantRuby; CosmicRuby; StarRuby; CelestialRuby.
Sapphire: SonicSapphire; LiquidSapphire; OceanSapphire; SkySapphire, EternalSapphire; TearSapphire; GlimmeringSapphire; ShimmeringSapphire; ShinningSapphire; SparklingSapphire; LustrousSapphire; RadiantSapphire; CosmicSapphire; StarSapphire; CelestialSapphire.
Emerald: EternalEmerald; ChaosEmerald; TerrestrialEmerald; CosmicEmerald; StarEmerald; CelestialEmerald; EarthEmerald; SkyEmerald; RoaringEmerald
Ruby and Sapphire pair: LandRuby and SeaSapphire; SolarRuby and LunarSapphire; SunRuby and MoonSapphire; MarsRuby and NeptuneSapphire; AplhaRuby and OmegaSapphire; RoyalRuby and Elegant; DesertRuby and OasisSapphire; DuskRuby and MorningSapphire; TwilightRuby and MorningSapphire; MorningRuby and TwilightSapphire; MorningRuby and DuskSapphire.
Wow, its a lot easier thinking up names for the Sapphire remake.
