>>26507599>it's not implausible for Pokemon to hide in their nests when its time for them to rest.You are aware that wouldn't make them impossible to find right? That would make them harder to encounter.
>Crystal had this "immersion" when you headbutted trees, sometimes a Pokemon would fall out asleep.Yes and I said that should return too.
>Also don't forget things like Ghost Pokemon coming out at night, Bat Pokemon leaving the caves at night to be in routes, and so on.see above
>>26507612> I would gladly wait a few hours for a decent catch rate instead of having to look for a pokémon with a 1% or 5% encounter rate. You are aware that in those "few hours" you could have already caught that pokemon with the low encounter rate and be done with it right?
>What is even the point of the day-night system if it doesn't actually do anything? No one is saying that they shouldn't do anything but you after all you seem to be ignoring better ideas just because they aren't GF official.
>What's the point of designing clearly nocturnal pokémon when that isn't represented in the game?Good lord, there are thousands of different ways to represent it.
For example
Them being more common in caves during the day and less at night.
The aforementioned sleep mechanic but reversed when in caves.
Hell make regular Pokemon appear on the overworld and make them fully encounterable when you get close, that's also a reason to bring back the sneaking mechanic because you don't want to disturb/wake up the pokemon oh yeah, bio luminescent pokemon also light up the surrounding area.
Stop thinking that the worst way is the only way to go about it.
>(like how you enter a new route next to another one and an entire host of different creatures live there with no real difference in conditions)And you wouldn't want something that makes a little more sense over the one that doesn't?
