Hi everyone i am posting this to see if people think a pokemon game based on the manga for it. I think it would be a good idea. It would have a completely different story, you could play as more then one character, and it would bring a new image to pokemon that is more teen like then what it already is. What do you think on this though?

Pokémon JRPG? Coluld be interesting.

I know it's already a JRPG, but more traditional JRPG-ish

I'd rather this didn't happen; you know the saying "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." and Pokemon is doing fine right now.
Mind you, if it did happen I'd give the game a fair chance as I haven't really read the manga before.

As you can see the manga is a lot more violent, the story is a bit darker even though they have those funny moments, they use a few words you won't here in the show. It would give pokemon the image a lot of people want. I think it could sell a lot if the put effort in it. Also this is a spoiler but the red and blue manga all the leaders are evil except borck, misty, erica, and blaine. I believe those were the only good ones. It gives a lot more history to the game though. It also adds 2 more characters blue who looks like the lass trainers and yellow a bug catcher who has a pikcahu that flies. Red's can use surf. Blue's signature pokemon is a jigglypuff and blastoise.

It would be cool to see some pokemon games based off the manga but I would be curious on how it would be done. I think it would be hard to form a story playing as the characters because part of pokemon is choosing your team. That would be gone because you would have the same pokemon as the characters I would assume. Also some of the events would be hard to put into a battle scenario.
I am mainly thinking about the game as if it were like the main seires games. I do hope they take the series in a more mature direction though.

Good day

I can't see something like this being a main-series game; they've got a great formula that's worked for well over a decade now. i might be interested in something like this, but only if it's more a straight JRPG-style game instead of something like Ranger, Mystery Dungeon, or Conquest. We've focused mainly on the Pokemon and the collecting and/or team-building aspects of the world for so long, it might be neat to focus on the people for a change. What kind of story would they choose to tell, though?

Pokemon Colosseum was more traditional. Maybe they could do another game like that, but based off the Manga's story?

I played Pokemon Colosseum and XD back when I was into Pokemon but no longer have them. Although, I don't like the main series now, I actually think I might buy Colosseum and XD again at some point. I'm not really into monster catching RPGs but since Pokemon Colosseum and XD are more traditional I might give them another try at some point and I also might be willing to give a game based off the manga a try if it was more traditional.

I see it being styled like that if it would be made. Plus it could be a new side game. Ranger was a new step in the side games but still became popular.
