Okay guys, let's make this fun, I'll rate your ideas.
>>318938208/10 I can see it as a good spinoff. You would need make well established mechanics to signal players what can and can't do your helper Pokemon.
>>31894424That would be illegal in most states.
>>31894680I posted that.
>>318968097/10 You would need to limit wild Pokemon encounters on water if you don't want your players to enrage with random encounters and cripple game experience.
>>31897284Isn't this Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series?
>>319004523/10 Ideas are too messy and unconsistent, I wouldn't play it.
>>31901031>>319010368/10 Your premise sounds catchy, but it would be really hard to maintain consistency between your worlds and not make it feel like each world is a minigame. I think you can make it like Metroid Fusion where there is a main hub where you can go to different sectors, but as your exploring capabilities widen, you find out they are actually interconnected.
As I said, your biggest challenge would be to connect those parts to unify the game experience.
