| Dr.Henry_Killinger said: It is entirely possible to do it by say procedural generation or making pokemon into individual size classes. But to personalize it to each pokemon would take considerable time and money. They are tricks to also create animations automatically, but again you have that variety and personalization problem. |
That does seem to be the biggest issue. Animations are the most important thing in a game like this. I can't imagine a way that they could cut corners and have it not be noticeable. Certain Pokémon with similar body types like lucario and mewtwo could have similar animations for punch and kick moves, but when it comes to the way it's Pokémon move, I imagine a lot of it must be different species by species.
