One of my main problems with a home console Pokemon RPG is the pacing. Take Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness for example, I may be exaggerating but battles seemed to take 15-20 minutes in those games vs. 2-5 minutes on handhelds and keep in mind, this was just ordinary trainer battles.

A lot of SRPGs have the option to turn battle animations off.  I can only imagine pokemon would have the same thing.  You can only watch flamethrower so many times...

 

 

and this, the games were good but my god the battles were long.......
