The only flaw in this that I can possibly see is that Pokemon can be healed through the PC (as all Pokemon are when they are inserted into a box). If you're walking a route and get poisoned or paralyzed, what's the point of having antidotes or paralyze heals when most of the time you'll be able to just swap them through the PC?
The only other change I would make to this then is that you can't heal through this PC on the road. Sure, you can have a party of 12 healthy Pokemon upon leaving, but on harder routes where it should be more challenging, you shouldn't be able to just swap, heal, swap back, and keep moving. Takes the challenge element out otherwise. |

I think a laptop would be a great idea, as long as they make it so Pokémon in the PC aren't all set to full health, or team re-organizing cannot be done with it. The reception idea sounds pretty cool, as well. I think the ability to use the phone in a cave in HgSs (I don't think it was possible in GS.) was a pretty bad idea.

I like the idea of the laptop, and the reception does seem like a nice counterbalance, but the problem of perfect healing whenever a Pokemon is sent through the system would break the game challenge. Either they would use JustJack's idea, or perhaps they could do something similar to this:
My idea is that transfering Pokemon would only be possible in areas that have full reception strength. You're sending the genetic code of an entire living creature across the internet, so you'd need the very strongest connection you could get. These would occur often enough that the PPC wouldn't be entirely pointless, but they would also be infrequent enough to retain the challenge.

Maybe the PPC and the PC Boxes are different, like you can't access PPC boxes from the PC and vice-versa.
That way they could justify PPC and PC boxes not healing or something, however I'd think it'd be great for something at the end of the main game, not towards the beginning(at least the PC part of it), cause if it were open in the opening of the game, then it'd make it really easy. If it were open at the end only, then it'd be perfect for EV training and such, which would be awesome. |
