Consider a game where you can create gyms and routes, or even challenges for people to play on their Wii U or even download to their 3DS.
Imagine transferring Pokemon to use in the areas people have created.
Imagine toggling through Gen 1-6 graphics, and even having old mechanics in the game.
Imagine being able to catch Pokemon and put them in your "PC" and then transferring them to your game.
Imagine being able to decide what music plays when fighting so and so, and getting cool remixes of previous themes.
Imagine putting rows upon rows of trainers with 6 Legendaries.

Imagine getting XY again.
Or you could just make a rom hack?

But a LEGAL rom hack!
>>25516495
How would it being legal make it better?
>>25516524
...People would actually know about it?
Pokemon is too complicated for this kind of thing to work and actually sell. Ask anyone who actually attempted making a fan game.

I don't know, it seems well known enough to me already desu
Can some one just tell me this is a good idea?
>>25516571
I-I'm sorry, I didn't want to make you sad ;_;
>>25516602
It's fine...I kinda just came up with this
It sounds cool to me OP but it'd be way too complicated so they'd never do it
>>25516413
This already exists. It's called Pokemon Essentials. It's just as amazing as you'd think it is.
Spoiler: It's not. At all.

Of course they would never do it, but that doesn't mean it's a bad idea. Some friends of mine were talking about this just after Mario maker was released, and it has potential, but it would be more akin to one of Bethesdas creation suites in complexity (setting encounter lists, trainer Pokes, areas, buildings, etc would be too complicated for a simple drag/drop like Mario Maker. Could still work on a console though if made well.)
Didn't even read all of it, I've always wanted to be a gym leader though so make that possible
No lie, I'd love a Super Pokémon Maker for the Wii U, where you can make your own game with your choice of starters, gyms (along with allowing you to choose whatever characters for Gym Leaders) It'd be a bit more complicated because you'd have to set up events but yeah, I could really get behind it.
That's way too complicate for the pants-shitting tantrum-throwing audience that Nintendo targets Pokemon to.
Just make a fan game and keep it on the down-low until it's finished so they can't fuck you over with a C&D.
