How would you incorporate catching Mythicals in game instead of them being locked behind mystery gift events only / some guy in a Pokemon center just handing you one?
Be it postgame dungeons, plot related or some other thing.

Probably by exploring obscure or hidden areas in the region after fulfilling certain fulfillment. I know a lot of people hated that shit, but I'd like Mythicals to be handled like the Regis were in Gen 3. It gave you a sense of adventure, and it was pretty rewarding.

Celebi is already available in the Crystal 3DS port as a regular post-game legendary for what it's worth.

Braille was cool thematically but man it was ridiculous for a trio
But something on that level for a mythical? I could see it.

Of course. Catch every pkmn of Kanto and you get to access a part of random cave where you can battle and catch Mew; catch every Johto pkmn and you can access random forest in which you can catch Celebi; and so on for most of them

Exceptions may be like: catch Rayquaza to access Deoxys, catch Cresselia to access Darkrai area, catch every musketeer to get Keldeo, catch every pokemon to access Arceus...

Pokemon should implement more subquests and unlockables. Games cannot be stiff like that. Once it was "Gotta catch them all" and honestly that was the claim that captivated the world, that's why GO was such a success.

Gyms, events and roads in-game should work more like "do this or that to unlock this area" instead of just battling a semi-decent character to access the next area, do this 8 times till you reach the League, then a random short as fuck postgame until you get bored.

Contests, Frontier, PWT and Movie Studio were niche in a way, but at least they provided fruitful time spent in the game after the postgame.

But GF nowadays prefer to work on the basis that they have to put out a new game each year so...why spending resources and time in producing a game that stands the test of time if you have to put out a new one each year?

(I like latter games, it's just that I found them very short-lived, there's literally nothing you can do in USUM after you beat the game and subquests)

Agree. The braille was pretty weird, but solving the puzzle and discovering the Regis was absolutely based. I wouldn't make getting Mythical Pokemon require anything as cryptic as braille, but journeying through incredibly obscure areas in the region and solving a good puzzle would be sweet. Anything beats a random fuck in a Pokemart tossing a rare Pokemon at you.

I would do something similar to what ORAS did with Deoxys. Each mythical gets a short story tacked onto the game after completing some arbitrary requirements.
For instance, since Mew is known to hide, a Kanto-wide game of hide and seek with it would be fun with it ending up in Pallet Town for the player to catch. and then different ones depending on the Pokemon. New areas could be added and explored. It would give the post-game some needed depth.

In the same fashion of a musician playing the Relic Song if Meloetta is brought to him, you have to retrieve several fragments of an old score disseminated around the region to a lone musician in a forest. Once the score is reassembled, the musician plays it and Meloetta appears out of nowhere, and that's where you both find out it was the long lost Relic song.

they could have done that in XY. They even had a perfect area and everything.

Did ORAS finally allow you to board a rocket and go to space?
Cause that's how Deoxys should have been able to catch all along.

You mega evolve Rayquaza in the Delta episode so that you can ride it into space to destroy some giant asteroid that would destroy the planet, you ram it and level 80 Deoxys comes out.

I recommend using your master ball here because you have to catch Rayquaza, battle a dragon trainer (just mega evolve Rayquaza and spam dragon pulse nonstop), watch a cutscene, then you battle Deoxys.

>re-entering the Strange House after catching Cresselia didn’t trigger a terrifying encounter with Darkrai
>they didn’t try for a scenario where the player thinks his/her game is fucked up because all this creepy shit is happening without any warning at all
I wish GF started nerfing Mythicals before they bumped Deoxys & Celebi down to readily-available Pokemon, Darkrai has some of the most potential for a memorable boss scenario.

If you decide you don't wanna use your Master Ball on Deoxys because of aesthetics or something, just kill it, beat the elite 4 again and it'll hover at the sky tower again in its weird triangle shape.
