No major changes? The combat changes alone in Diamond/Pearl are fucking huge. No longer is physical and special split alog type lines. You can have a physical Fire attack, or a special Normal attack. That changes the game in absolutely massive ways. I'm sorry if you don't like the game, but it has evolved in many many ways.

No. Just no. This only affects the battle system, and, though it is a pretty big change, it only changes how you strategize and the potential strength of a some Pokemon. It does little to nothign to reinvigorate the overall gameplay experience.


@Khuutra: I've give this thought, and it's hard to come up with solid ideas that don't either (a) have lots of flaws or (b) change the game TOO much. But one thing I think that would benefit the series with little to no cons would to be to ditch the whole "8 badges while occasionally stymying the semi-malignant efforts of an enigmatic team" and replace it with a more adventurous/exciting central narrative. That, along with a more open, broad, explorable world (a lot less linear) could go a long way to rekindling my interest in the games.
