Coordinator game

[Leef]

Does anyone else think that a game where you can travel and be a coordinator instead of a trainer would be awesome?
Maybe if you had the option instead of a completely different game
But have the contests like the contests in the anime as the game ones a kind of annoying.

I think it would be a good idea. I'm just curious how the game mechanics would go if that happened

Yeah, it would be a bit tricky to get it all to work.
Maybe if moves were "controlled" or something via the touchscreen, so they can collide and sparkle... I'm not sure if thats such a brilliant idea lol :/
Poffins or a new treat can still affect performance.
The battle round could just be normal battles.

There is not as much depth to being a coordinator as there is to being a trainer...game-wise. You can beat a Contest with the same move set but for gyms you have to train.

Well if the battles get harder in each contest, then you need to train to win.
You can still have normal battles with trainers while you travel. Each contest can be scattered across the region and you need a certain ribbon to use certain HMs.

I have been thinking about something to be included in a main game: contest gym leaders! 5 of 'em (for every type). Just do a contest against them, and if you win you get a badge, then later you can go do a contest-league (just win four/five contests in a row). Does anyone like my idea?

That would be cool but I think there should be ribbons instead of badges. I just think ribbons would make a nice change

I doubt they'd come up with enough content for the game to be non-repetitive and quite long / to have a good replay value.

It would be the same as any other game but with contests instead of gyms.
Gyms are repetitive. You battle the Gym Leader once, you know what's coming after that.

As much as I like Contests, they only really work well as a mere sidequest to a game, as opposed to being its entire backbone. Even if they were to transform them into anime-style ones, it just wouldn't work as a stand-alone game. There's nowhere near enough depth.
