Does anybody else hope they bring back Dive? I really enjoyed the little underwater excursions. They added an interesting little bit to the game. I can see why they got rid of it, but at the same time, I wish they hadn't. Any thoughts on this, and why they decided to cut it?
 
They probably cut it because there are almost no water routes in Sinnoh. IIRC, the only major one is on the way to the Indigo Plateau, with much smaller strips of water in a few of the others.

If Dive is reintroduced, I'd like to be able to move faster. But it really was an interesting innovation.
 
The main reason was because Sinnoh isn't water-based, unlike Hoenn. It has more land areas, thus there was Rock Climb.

But it was fun diving, though. Being able to breathe underwater for eternity without drowning yourself. :p
 
I thought that it was a cool inclusion to be able to catch pokemon in grass underwater (Relicanth and the like) and the fact you didn't have to breathe, but if it was included in *insert next installment here* I'd prefer it if it wasn't mandatory to the story or any side quests.
