Pokemon is an odd game. It's an RPG, but somehow a lot of the tropes from more traditional RPG games don't make it in. There's no crafting, no real gear, no looting, no cooking. Fangames over us freedom, however, namely the freedom to add and detract mechanics at will. There's a wide spectrum of...

In pokemon games, there are two main gameplay spheres. The battle scenes, and the overworld. Gameplay in battles is simple. Attack. Gameplay in the overworld is more varied, however, allowing you to explore, interact and puzzle your way through a region. The part I want to focus on is that...

An evil team can march up to any location and can turn it into a trainer filled maze of a dungeon. A singular antagonist would have to battle you...

I personally don't see any real problems with a speed-up button. It allows for people to skip through the parts of experiences they don't care about. I don't feel comfortable as a creator curating how people should experience this game I made for them. Games as an art-medium are about choice...
