Back in MAH day, we didnt have no GTS.
We had ta grab a cord, and hunt down some young whippasnappa and say, "HALP ME EVOLVE MA KADABRA!"
AHHH the younger days of pokemon. Back in my days, there weren't any EV, IV training (Eventhough it existed.) It was all:
Player1:I'MMA EARTHQUKE U MOTHER****ERS!!!
Player2: MY CHARIZARD WILL FIRE BLAST YOUR ASS!
PLAYER3: BITCH PLZ! DRAGONITE USED HYPER BEAM! OHKO!
And something to that extent. XD

In my opinion I think it would need to stay a 4 way only movement, reason being is the trainer trapping that Pokemon games love to have where the player HAS to move into a trainers line of sight to initiate a battle.
Line of sight could just be a straight beam emitted from an NPC's eyes. Really easy to do.

Define better?

Tbh I can't really think of anything in that aspect. And no, I do NOT want see my Pokemon in the act of breeding.... X___X
Better Daycares; even though that's not specific to the breeding aspect.
I'm not really sure specifically, I just never felt he need to breed unless for the Pokedex or to get a move... :/

My idean: Maybe more then one daycare. Up to 5 day cares and each one being a different theme. Each pokemon has a theme they level and breed better in.

Allow each daycare to hold up to 50 pokemon and 50 eggs. Any stored eggs can be offered as a gift on the GTS. Each accepted egg earns you GTS points. Points earned are based on how hard it is to obtain said pokemon. Points can be use to get rare items, such as pokedex skins and masterballs.

To encourage trading, trading pokemon would give you higher points then giving eggs.

In addition a sixth online day care. The online day care would store up to 4 of your pokemon, along with many others pokemon. Pokemon bread online earns you and the other person an egg. If your pokemon was the male, your egg will be female and if your's was the female, then you get a male egg. You can have up to 50 eggs online at once. Once you claim your pokemon, you claim the eggs. Basically it would serve as a second online way of earning pokemon.

I like the Multiple Eggs idea... Maybe instead have a big center for Pokemon with different sections, each specials in different things.
One could specialize in Leveling up/Training your Pokemon, One could be for Breeding, And one could be for maybe hatching eggs
And instead of holding one egg, they could hold multiple eggs for you (5 Max?)

This may be too much to ask for but special designs for the eggs depending on what Pokemon's inside? (like the anime)

I don't think that is too much to ask. Battle stadium 2 allowed you too see the egg designs of pokemon. Although it was limited in that only the pre-evolution had special designs. All others were an bland green design.

I guess it just seems unlikely, like better Crys for the Pokemon (Like Pikachu in Pokemon Yellow)

yeh, the eggs designs is unlikely, or at least not for all eggs, but the better crys idea is good and a must i think, not in the plan of making pikachu say pikachu, or charmander say charmander, but upgrade the sounds changing the soundfont with a better one, like playing a midi on a professional midi program(sibelius comes to my mind) instead of the default midi player that sound like shit(f*cking general midi, microsoft has been using the same crappy soundfont since 1996).

Yea, I wouldn't want them to sound like the anime Pokemon (Since they've made legendaries talk in more recent films -_-)
But Higher quality sounds would be great, cause their are some crys I like, Like Lucario's

Problem with making crys similar to that of the show is that they will have to spend a LOT more money to do the voiceovers. Especially since Pokemon make different cries depending on the dubbing. For Pikachu, it won't be so bad since it is known as Pikachu both in Japanese and English. However, not all Pokemon share that trait. Take Charmander. Those who grew up watching the Eng dub of Pokemon anime will know that it repeats its name in a slightly high pitched voice. In Japan, it's called Hitokage and while I do not remember how it sounds like (and I cbf to find a vid. It's getting late), I can safely say that it is different from the Eng one. And that is only 2 languages. Imagine Spanish, German etc. It's gonna be more effort than it's worth from GameFreak's POV. :(

EDIT: :ph34r:'ed. LOL. And to think I was using the exact same example XD
