Yeah, but I kinda miss HMs. Maybe it's because I'm a man of the 90s. I hope they bring back Gyms though, especially since WE STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN A DARK TYPE POKEMON GYM!! NO THE DARK TYPE TRIAL IN SUN AND MOON DOESN'T COUNT!! |
Well, Im a 90s too.
But ditching HMs was one of the best thigs that happen to pokemon main games.
Since 90s, I used to build the team always thinking about HMs, I had to have pokemon to carry all (many times useless in battle) HMs. It was very limiting.You end having to use pokemon as HM slave, go to PC everytime to trade them. Pokemon was always about freedom to choose pokemon team and movesets, HMs limits one of the most important characteristic of pokemon.
Although, Pokeride also seems space for improvments. It kinda of feel like calling a uber, kind of renting a pokemon that is not yours. They could maybe add a pokemon ride box, where you can registrate the pokemon you catch into ride and call them. Of course there would be categories. Like 'pokemon that serve to ride and has horns', and if you can register in this category a tauros, a terrakion, stantler, etc. Also the game would provide a place to catch at least one of them nearby the place you first need it.
Imagine trading the useless HM flash and its HM slave for riding a rapidash that iluminates the cave with its flame body? Would be much better.
