Even if the past Pokémon remakes like Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire new Pokémon included and strongly focused on the newly introduced Mega Evolution feature, it looks like the upcoming Sinnoh remakes so far will not follow suit. And despite these new games released during the 8th generation of PokémonIt seems that this faithful remake approach will exclude many features from 2019 Pokémon Sword and Shield.
The Wild Area
By far one of Pokémon Sword and ShieldThe most important features were the addition of the wild area. For years, fans of the Pokémon series to break into the open world genre, and it seemed like the Wild Area was the reaction of Game Freak, testing the waters by including a giant open world area for players to go through and explore, while the rest of the game was still in line with the classic Pokémon formula.
Before the unveiling of Brilliant diamond and Shiny pearl, fans speculated that Sinnoh’s Mt. Coronet could act as the Wild Area of the 4th generation remakes. With a more condensed chibi art style, however, it looks like the remakes will feature strictly the same routes and areas as the original games.
World Pokémon
Pokémon Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Let’s go, Eevee! finally gave fans the ability to see wild Pokémon in the world of the game, to get rid of all random encounters. However, to bring an equal balance between the world and random wild Pokémon calves, Pokémon Sword and Shield combined the two so that players could see some wild Pokémon in the world, while random encounters were marked with “!” icons with which they can communicate to start a random wild battle. Overworld Pokémon is not in the revelation trailer for Brilliant diamond and Shiny Pearl, as with the Wild Area, it seems that the more condensed game world of the upcoming remakes will not have room for wandering monsters.
Dynamax & Gigantamax Pokémon
Since the 6th generation of Pokémon games with X and Y, each new generation of mainline games has introduced a kind of gimmick mechanic meant to keep the series fresh. Players first became acquainted with Mega Evolution, then Z-Moves, and more recently Dynamaxing and Gigantamaxing, which make the Pokémon of fans huge.
Although Mega Evolution was a hit with fans, many did not express the same excitement about Dynamaxing and Gigantamaxing. Since Pokémon diamond and Pearl If there has never been such a gimmick mechanic, it is safe to say that fans will not encounter Dynamax Bidoof in the near future in an attempt to keep the versions faithful to the original games.
Max Raid Battles
Pokémon Sword and Shield introduced a new way for fans to play with Max Raid Battles like never before. Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokémon and Max Raid Battles essentially go hand in hand.
While Sword and Shield players can raise their Pokémon during some battles, they can also collaborate with other players to take out Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokémon. Pokémon GO-inspired raids. Players can take part in these collaborative battles via the Wild Area, and since the original Diamond and Pearl games did not include such an open-world territory, and it is also quite likely that Max Raid Battles will not make a return to the faithful versions.
The Y-comm
Just as Dynamax and Gigantamax go hand in hand with Max Raid Battles, Max Raid Battles go hand in hand with the Y-Comm, Pokémon Sword and Shieldapproach a player communication system. With the Y-Comm, players can mainly reach out to others for help with Max Raid Battles, as well as PvP battles or trades. With the absence of Max Raid Battles, it’s likely that the Y-Comm will not come Brilliant diamond and Shiny pearl even if it’s since Pokémon Black and White‘s C-Gear, online communication features are implemented via a device in each mainline Pokémon games. Although the Y-Comm may not return, it is possible that Diamond and PearlThe Poketch can be processed to include online features instead.
Pokémon Battle
Since Pokémon X and Y, mainline titles included a way for players to communicate with their Pokémon. Sword and Shield introduced Pokemon Camp as a way for players to take a breather on their journey to sit back and spend their time feeding, playing and cooking with their Pokémon partners, as well as cooking see how their Pokémon communicate with each other. These camps are spread over different routes as well as the wild area. Although there were no camps Pokémon diamond and Pearl, fans can be sure that they will find a way to communicate with their Pokémon in the new remakes, as it is quite possible that an older feature such as Pokémon-Amie or Pokémon Refresh from the original could be included in the Super Games. Diamond and Pearl games.
Poke Jobs
The 7th generation games Pokémon Son and Moon introduced the Pokepelago, a way for players to send down Pokémon that are not currently in their party to complete tasks to magnify and bring back rewards. Sword and Shield transformed the concept into Poke Jobs, a rotating computer-enabled work listing feature that players from any Pokémon center can access. Like the Pokepelago, players can send off their Pokémon to complete work on experience points and items, by sending out their Pokémon for longer periods of time so they can reap more rewards. With no Rotomi computers in Pokémon diamond and Pearl, It’s very likely that the feature will not return, but some fans think that a similar feature could be implemented Brilliant diamond and Shiny pearl‘s underground.
Character adaptation
Character adaptation has been a mainstay almost every time Pokémon games since X and Y, which placed a great focus on fashion and style. While Sun and Moon, the Let’s go games, and Sword and Shield all inclusive character customization, the 3rd generation remakes Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire not, which led many fans to exclude character customization as a possibility in Brilliant diamond and Shiny pearl. It has not been confirmed, but at this stage it is very likely.
In addition, with the chibi art style approach to the Pokémon Gen 4 remakes, the size and design of the player characters do not leave much room for striking details that justify the addition of character adjustments as something like skin color. But like Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the upcoming remakes could add a costume change for Super Matches.
Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shiny pearl will be released on Nintendo Switch in late 2021.
