If you headed a department in Game Freak

[carboncopy]

and they were developing the next gen, what would it be :

1)Story Design - The guy who plans the main story and plot of the games and also the general theme of the games.

2) Pokemon Design - The guy who designs the new Pokemon

3) Region Layout Design - The guy who designs the places in the new region and the overall theme of the region.

4) Public Relations - The guy who coordinates the dates when the games should be released and who makes public announcements about new games.

5) Graphics Design - The guy who design the look and feel of the towns, people, etc.

6) Music Direction - The guy who directs the music production

7) Core Game Engine Programming - The guy who programmes the stuff like attack system, evs, ivs, etc.

8) Overall Game Programming - The guy who puts everything together, like programming the placement of towns, what the NPCs say, what pokemon they have, etc.

I would be the head of the Core Game Engine Programming as I like programming. Also, I then get to make all the battle scenes 3D .

Omg lol this thread!!!
First thing i would do is make sure the 3rd gen battle frontier is plastered all over the game.
Then i would make sure that i can grow berries in patches and fields like the very trees that are aimlessly litter the game.
I would also make it so that you could climb those trees.

Afterwards, i'd make it possible to play the nintendo wi at mums house lol.

Also i'd make an option were you could customize your in game characters appearance, so that i could have dread locks.

I would be the guy who designs the new Pokemon..i have a lot of creative ideas for new Pokemon ;D

[HRRlion]

Public relations, I think I'd know how to get the fans excited!

[Excitable Boy]

Since I don't know Japanese, I'll do PR for North America. I can write and speak fairly well, I'd say, and I know some good thesauruses for when I run out of synonyms for "awesome."

Assuming I could magically learn Japanese/everyone at GameFreak learns perfect English, I might prefer that overall category. I like details and numbers and stuff, and I could do a lot with that position.

[PaddysTurtwigFanClub]

For me it would have to be Pokemon design. Because it is probably the most important after storyline.
I think I would choose this as Gen 5 had a few disappointing designs. Pokemon typing affects the region layout also e.g. if you have a good amount of ice types you will a snowy area to live in, and same with bug you will need a forset etc.

[Bolt the Cat]

Region Layout Design. We don't need another region like Unova.

[Ver-mont]

Story Design. I like good storylines and fleshed out characters as much as I like creating them or using them, it would be interesting to take care of this myself.

The next options would be Pokémon or Graphics.

[Lumino Lucario]

Gameplay so that the game can be a lot more free flowing meaning you can control your pokemon in battle

[sizida]

If I can do game programming. (I don't want to learn it. Such a drag), I would like to improve the hack check of GTS and for random battling. Also more transparency for the pokemon profiles in GTS.

[the3rdH0kage]

Music-I'm a musician and thats what I plan on doing after schooling is done with. or overall game programming because if music doesn't work, I'm going into the gaming industry.

[Stereotypical Nerd]

Either Story Design or Overall Game Programming

[adamfitz]

As an artist, I'd love to be a Pokemon designer, I'd also love to throw in good ideas, like more regions in the one game and side story to make more gameplay

[Shine]

If the DW and the GTS falls into Core Game Engine Programming, then I'll pick that.

We all know there are a few wrong things within those two amazing invention, and they just have to be fixed.

[Pilpulp]

They all sound interesting, but my top three picks would be story design, pokemon design, and region design.

I love a suspenseful story-line, with lots of different and interesting characters. So yeah,

Pokemon design just for the fact of making things balanced and having each pokemon with a advantage, but at the same time making some really cool ones.

Lastly region design/graphics design this would be the most fun out of all, because you can be so creative, jhajsdhaj, I would have so many ideas it's not even funny, if I were to create a region, it would be a Shadows of Almia typish region with the different areas connected by Plane, Boat, Surf etc... but having different "biomes" just go to the Almia region map in pokeearth and see what I'm talking about.

But, if I had to choose one of these, it would be region design.

3) Region Layout Design - The guy who designs the places in the new region and the overall theme of the region.

I would want to do the Region Layout Design, because I have good ideas for these types of things. For school like half a year ago, I had to make a province (It had to have an economy, politics, numbers, people, and other stuff that made it lame and long). I spent most of my time drawing it (restarted 3 times and I had a week to do it). I had a very good map, and at the last minute I wrote about the stuff I mentioned. I finished by getting around 90 or 95%...That was one of my favourite projects I had done since ever... (too bad the teachers only makes us write s a).

5) Graphics Design - The guy who design the look and feel of the towns, people, etc.

I would also want to help/give ideas for the look, and feel of towns because I would want to make a really dark town where it rains and write a myth about why it always rains and why its a dark and scary place.
