>Tajiri: The games aren’t about raising the strongest Pokémon, but rather about raising the strongest Pokémon team. If you bought both of the previous titles and worked really hard, you’d be able to complete your Pokédex all by yourself, something that’s possible in these games as well. I know there’s a difference between people who buy both versions and trade back and forth between them to get all the Pokémon and people who collect Pokémon by trading with others. That’s why I want to allow players to see the number of people they’ve traded with. I want to give the matter more serious consideration and create a game that doesn’t pick on kids who don’t have friends, but rather helps to increase the number of friends they do have. That’s the play environment I’m aiming for.
