What Would Pokemon Legends Alola Look Like? | Goldenrod Podcast 

Skipping cutscene option would be great for the replay value, because that was the greatest complaint in Pokemon games. If you're not going to recognize older players to skip the tutorial all the together, give an option to all for it. Also, an option for the experience share again. Don't know why that was removed for those that actually like to grind their individual team members.

56:30 It would be interesting if GF implemented a field move system like in the Pokemon Ranger games. You briefly befriend a Pokemon to help clear an obstacle in your path. The bigger field moves or more permanent HM type moves like Fly or Surf would become your Partners like in PLA.

I'd say, give us a starter utility mon like Cylizard to roam around, and as you advance to different areas in the game, you can catch stronger mons that can do more with their natural abilities like connor is getting at, but you have to improve as a trainer to obtain a mon that can climb higher than some or soar faster than others. Therefore making it worth it, and gives retrace ability as your Corviknight can fly higher than say your Doduo could only jump or Fearow could fly. Something like that I would like. Probably something that was in those ranger games I never played lol

I would love to explore the Ultra Recon world and start there and go on adventures finding the fallers from other games. Legends Alola: Ultra Rangers lol

Immediately, give me a bug type move that super effective against Fairy. I think the answer is in the resistances rather than the super effectiveness, and give it to moderately okay mons stat wise so that they get more play and representation that doesn't require them to get a new form or evolution. Give Golduck Dark Thoughts, a 70 pp psychic type move that hits dark types super effectively. I could see that being the way forward, and like Ben said, limit it to certain mons via egg move or specific move tutors like the Elemental Beams used to be where you have to go out of your way, present a certain currancy like BP to obtain the ability to learn the moves.

QOTP: If you could start your own Pokemon journey from anywhere in the Poke-world. Where would you like to begin with, and would you take a professor given starter of that area or a more difficult route of going out to find your own partner in the surrounding area?

So happy y'all got to my weird question...can't wait to listen to this at work 😁 definitely legends Alola would make for a fun game Hawaii is a land full of awesome stories and myths.

The future Pokedex could be like an implant with lenses or glasses to see the menu the Implants are like the UI. I think that will happen otherwise implants that let us control our smartphones and cpus That's all possible today but the implant goes in your brain and they don't use the AR glasses interface they just use Bluetooth lol the pokefied version could be like a shot in the arm and a pair of goggles that you can put on and take off putting them on brings up menus They could be hardwired so there would be a futuristic look to the characters wires obviously will go away one day but it would look cool to have a cyborg look just a blue and red or green cable running from the sleeve to the goggles Just realized Mewtwo has his "umbilical" cord from the back of his head this is how it could look if the goggles were hardwired to a brain implant

29:20 😂yall have shot yourself in the foot here. Pokémon doesn’t need to be historically accurate, just inspired by history. The Protagonist could be another Pacific Islander from a different archipelago like you mentioned with Moana. Simple as that. Someone who is an outsider, but has a similar background.
