Pokemon Z?

[Tellis]

Yeah I was about to say, that was pretty much Platinum, right? Like I understand people didn't play it but like... it honestly makes Sinnoh a way cooler (PUN TOTALLY INTENDED, NERDS) region in my eyes. I feel like it'd be more of the same. Also Kalos' snow areas sucked?

Personally I'd really love a region based on the Pacific Northwest/the area surrounding Seattle. I think they could do a lot with how diverse the whole state is with rain forests and beaches and many different islands (like Hoenn but not water forEVER) in the west and lots of desert and farmland and (though I'd worry that maybe the region being split down the middle by the Cascades would make it too similar to Sinnoh?) Though I'll freely admit it's because I'd love to see what they'd do with the area I grew up in...



As for the idea of a Pokemon Z... I genuinely don't care? If me thanking almost all of StarSock's posts here wasn't enough indication, I wasn't a big fan of Kalos! I don't know how but they somehow made France boring? Plus they took away a lot of cool things that BW2 added (not the least of which was Gym Leaders actually having character beyond "hey let's fight!!"). I'm not sure what they would add that could possibly get me hyped up about slogging through Kalos again other than maybe both INCREDIBLY expanded customization options and a massive post-game a la Battle Frontier but better. But... there's no way that's happening? I'm not counting on Z being X/Y's Platinum...

Oh, actually, if they made Lumiose suck way less, that'd be a lot of points towards Z as well. Color-code the city! Have a persistent map! Anything to make navigating that place less of a hellhole!

I'd mainly want a Russian themed area for the chance to have a gym leader based on Soda Popinski.

Have Soda Popinski be the player's dad.

I'd rather the player's mom be a gym leader before repeating the "your dad's a gym leader" rigmarole again.
