In what way? MMO stands for "Massively Multiplayer Online". An MMO is a game like FF14 or WoW, where you have hundreds/thousands of unique players interacting in a single game world (server). Nintendo have never made anything like that. If they had i'd be playing it right now :p

you can battle/trade with people around the world, it's as mmo as it will get. the idea of a pokemon game with thousands of people on the same world would suck. too much trouble to do the same thing the regular games do (battle against other people from a distance).

If that's enough to merit it being called an MMO, then pretty much every game that allows you to play online would be one :p

I disagree though. A Pokemon MMO, if done properly, would be totally awesome ^^ It's not like the player have the physically battle within the core server world. Introducing a DF like system from FF14 would do functionally the same thing as what Pokemon does now.
