what does /vp/ think about a Pokemon game in the style of Breath of the Wilds open world explorer?

>huge open world with just about every Pokemon available in grass just like normal
>dungeons with legendaries accessible with certain criteria, hidden in specific locations
>towns and cities more natural and blending with the landscape
>everything is climbable

thoughts?

why though? i'd much rather have a pokemon game where you can control the mons in battle or at least give anime-style chains of commands and where rather than HMs or riding you get over obstacles by needing pokemon with at least x strenght or with a certain ability/type, to promote exploring and diverse parties, but in a way that isn't a chore.

How do you mean? Exploration isn't different between a top-down world and an open world.

The battle system wouldn't need reworking. Just have a battle start once you physically touch a Pokemon/Talk to a trainer in the world. Just have the game cut to a battle.

Game Freak can give trainer and wild Pokemon appropriate levels because you're forced to traverse the overworld in a particular way. If you made Pokemon an open-world game, there would be no way to know what levels to make every wild Pokemon in each area. Just look at how fucked the level curve is in Johto because they gave you the option of going either left or right when you reach Ecruteak. The alternative would be to just automatically scale the wild and trainer Pokemon when you get a badge or as you level up. But then that begs the question: why don't the level 40 wild Pokemon just attack you when you're starting off the game? Why do they wait until much later on in the game?

And it would be awkward if you had a fully 3D world with full-sized Pokemon models roaming around, only for the game to cut to a separate battle area every single time. It would make more sense for the game to have real-time battles that take place in the overworld itself (sort of like Xenoblade). But at that point, it's not really a mainline Pokemon game anymore. Game Freak wouldn't abandon the current battle system because they've spent 20 years tweaking it.

I want to see a Pokemon game take place in the Dream World. Like an adventure where you go through different types of dreams all connected to each other and you would meet people/Pokemon that would also be dreaming.

You could also have more experimental ideas for a Pokemon game since it's a dream. Some of which would include Dream Variants with stranger designs (Such as a Grass/Fire Spaghetti Tangrowth and a Water/Steel Fire Hydrant Magmotar), Talking Pokemon, and The main antagonist being actual Pokemon known for using sleep inflicting moves.

There are. You place lower levelled Pokemon closer to wherever you start the player off and the closer you get to the edges of the map the higher level shit is. You know, the way every other Open World game handles its shit.

This also allows players to take the game at their own place, or start exploring more dangerous zones earlier if they're a more advanced player.

Asking this question runs on the same logic of why there's only level 2 and 3 Pokemon around every hero's hometown and levels 30+ around endgame towns. Almost like it's just a game mechanic. One that could just be adapted by placing the high-level Pokemon in more isolated locations away from civilization.

or just apeal to nostalgia fags and have the region themselves (but not the battles) done in their original format.

Xenoblade Chronicles X has enemies of heavily varying levels everywhere, so it's up to the player to choose which enemies to fight and which ones to run away from. I assume it could work the same for Pokemon.

The people opposing this idea always present incredibly stupid arguments to back up their opinions. Things like difficulty curve and so on would not be an issue if Game Freak just used all the tools that they have. I feel like Pokemon games have so much unused potential missed opportunities.

First of all, level scaling is not an issue because you could just make the enemies scale based on your progress in the game (this has been done already in RPGs like Oblivion). Make it so that once you obtain a certain badge, the enemy levels go up. Also, there could still be more difficult areas that are only accessible by HMs/Pokeride/whatever so that you can only go there after reaching a certain point of the game.

>But scaling would remove difficulty curve
No it wouldn't. There are many more ways to make opposing Pokemon more challenging than just increasing their level, and this is something that a lot of people forget for whatever reason. Make it so that at the beginning of the game opposing trainers have just random shitmons with IVs of zero, no EVs and extremely limited movesets. and as you travel further away from the starting place, the teams become tougher as they get better team synergy, moves with higher power and better coverage, better held items, better IVs and EVs and so on. At the very end of the game you'd face full-on competitive teams with perfect IVs, optimal EV spreads, powerful held items like Life Orb / Scarf / etc., teammates covering each others weaknesses and trainers using advanced strategies like weathers teams and so on. This would be a more natural way to discourage you from going to the final areas right at the beginning of the game as you would just get your ass kicked before finding better items and TMs and building yourself a better team.

Really the only problem is time. It would obviously require a lot of work to do something like this, but I'd be ready for the wait.

Random encounters would be ok though.

But again it is of that hireling of Ohmori we are talking about, we'll have the same shit all over again, more and more poor in content, and with some retarded gimmick like mega or super moves or w/e the fuck are they, especially know tgat pokemon is seen as an "e-sport".

bring back HM-like functions, you need to get the badge to chop the trees down, tree based pokemon may fall from them as an added effect

same goes for the other types of HM effects, each district on the map requires a gym badge to continue to any other part

Stop being so fucking ambitious.
Pokémon doesn't work as an open world game. It follows a formula that is not to be tampered with. No new major mechanics. No new major story elements. Pokémon is a consistent and pure franchise.
It took years for BotW to be finish be developed, and it isn't nearly as ambitious as you fools want this game to be.

Pokemon is inherently an extremely difficult game to balance, because you form your party out of enemies. Even ignoring being able to travel to a high-level area and catch an overleveled Pokemon, the series struggles to justify a high number of monsters. Once people get a team of six that they're okay with, they stop looking for new ones unless they're a completionist. They have no reason to keep seeking out more otherwise.

Considering how fucking godawful the GF programmers are, and the huge chances of those games suffering from the same issues BotW had? No thanks. It might work out if the region was 1/4th the size of BotW's playable area, but I'm not so sure.

They could do some level scaling and change encounter rates depending on some shit. Average party level + 3~7 for wild encounters, then encounters and what group of Pokemon you can encounter could vary depending on that average party level too.

As others have said, there used to be more areas to explore and tangent off into to. In the last 2 gens though, they have kind of abandoned that for linearity. Even a linear region like Unova at least had some exploring in it too. I haven't played BoTW yet, but GD could learn something from it. Of course they won't because S/M sold a ton.

No. That's not how the IP of Pokémon works. It doesn't change, period.
This thread is literally just retards blowing smoke out their ass over something that will never happen.

Zelda was allowed to do it because they change it up frequently.
Pokémon will never be allowed to do it because they don't want it to change.

There is an upcoming open world pokemon game for the switch.

It's a heavy story-driven game which will feature a certain recent popular pokemon as the protagonist.

You'll see in due time.
