Yeah, I'd probably be shooting myself in the foot if I refused to make an iOS version. So as much as I'm opposed to iOS (since it censors shit), the money will, hopefully, be a nice balm.
Edit:
So, what I'm thinking of, flavour wise, is that the app basically represent's the player's Anima, essentially the Avatar in Mage, which is able to walk the spirit realm and interact with the monsters there. When you capture a monster, it's transferred to an interdimensional space, and you have a sigil for it. The sigils are held in an in-game item called the Arcanix, which is both Pokedex and pokeballs. Due to the volatile nature of the creatures' magical energies, you can only carry around a certain amount, represented by points. Most will be low enough that you can have an active party of 5 or 6, or even 10, monsters, but some, such as ones made to be found at major landmarks, like the previously mentioned Theobear of Mt. Rushmore, take up more "space" because they're more powerful, and have more essence.
Hunters will probably have two occupations, in addition to being a hunter. These will be things like healer, breeder, auditor (gym leader) that are directly tied to the idea of the game, as well as some that are more about how you act or what kind of magic your Anima has access to, which will give minor benefits, such as Necromancer (access non-ghost/undead monsters in cemetaries), Warlock (boost dark/flame monster power), and so on.
What occupations would people like to see?

Yeah, Roxie's music is shit. Also, I am having so much fun being a movie star. I think there's something else in the game I'm supposed to do? Wait, shit, half the movies are only available once you enter the Hall of Fame (so presumably, beat the Elite 4-or-more), so I guess I should go do that some time.
(Also it's pretty haxx, I hit the item limit for Lemonades, which are some of the best HP-healing items in the game for quite a while. People just give you so many freebies.)
Prak: I'd suggest sort of integrating Pokewalker features in, so you can raise the XP and happiness of the found pokemon just by walking with them, but go a step further:
[*]Let you increase their EVs (to the usual limits) by being in different places or feeding them the right snacks or whatever.
[*]Have some kind of way to change their IVs, so you can eventually get all 31s rather then just breeding a million of them.
[*]Let the ones you discover have Hidden Abilities (so Multiscale Dragonite for instance) - or even have some manner of changing the Ability (to another one normally available - so Mawile could have Sheer Force, Intimidate or Hyper Cutter, but not Levitate or Flash Fire)
[*]Based on the UserID or some hidden value or whatever, every time you're within range of another user, give the option of learning a specific Move Tutor move. Effectively, everyone is a wandering Move Tutor with one random move that they can only teach other people's pokemon.

Yeah, I had ten metric fucktons each of Moo Moo Milks, Lemonades, and Lava Cookies from spending an hour or two making movies and didn't need any healing items at all until I got to the 7th Gym or so (when healing 100 HP a pop didn't do much good.)
I've finished the last Gym and am now fighting Team Plasma; sure they're cliched villains (this is Pokemon, what do you expect?) but at least there aren't the huge monologues from Team Plasma and Team Status Quo from the last game.
My previous verdict on this game still stands.
EDIT: Since I don't have any shit that I can download apps on (and thus don't know what I'd like to see in them) I can't be of much help to you, Prak.
I mean, I suppose I could offer really abstract advice in a bit, when I've gotten some much needed rest, but I think Shrapnel and Koumei have it covered.

If I recall right, the idea's about getting the biggest fucking combos you can. So like the tiger-claw two handed all-punch flurry. The ice skate's multi-kicks from holding the button down. If you get it just right, you can keep the chain going between breaking arms off and such, and get even Hyooger combo bonuses.Shrapnel wrote:Per Maxus: I'll definitely hafta try that trick out.

In the app I'm working on? I'm not sure, hadn't given it much thought. On the one hand, it's primarily a directly mon-related occupation, which will probably give a decent boost to your mons of a given type. On the other hand, aside from special event, or location based auditors, that's all they are, a character class.

I picked up Final Fantasy 3 DS in the bargain bin at the local game store.
You can pretty up the graphics and clean up the writing all you want, but this isn't a very good game. It seems like every dungeon has some sort of bullshit "interact with some random part of the background that doesn't look different from any other part unless you zoom in" puzzle, and there have been back to back battles against monsters you have to flee. The first one wasn't that bad, but the second one? Goes first, kills 2 out of 4 characters. If (like me) you don't have Gamefaqs open when you play, you won't know that the game is reusing that gimmick again, and lose two people. Then when you try to run the next round, it goes first and kills the other two party members. I lost an hour of data because I had used quicksave instead of actual save (I have no idea why they can't keep a quicksave slot filled until you make a hard save, and why it has to be deleted when you load it.)

Oh, I know, but it's the only Pokemon on my team that isn't fully evolved and so I want to see it do so.
Also it's my first time fielding a Tyrannitar and want to see it in action.

Used to be a facebreaker. Incredibly high physical attack
Now that there's physical Dark-type moves, and stronger Rock and Dark moves since Gen 2...
...I can only imagine it's gone above "facebreaker"
Hey, Koumei, Surgo, whoever, what's the slang term for a pokemon that fucks up shit and won't go down easy except to the specific stuff it's weak to?

What are some creatures people would like to see in a Mon-catching game? (keeping in mind that I totally intend for this game to, in some way, have adult content, even if only so my Farfetch'd expy can wield a giant purple dildo).

It still goes down to Fighting attacks really easily, while packing weakness to Water, which is a pain. The SpDef boost from sand (ie its own Sandstream) is handy though.
Typically the term is Sweeper. So Tyranitar is a Physical Sweeper and Alakazam is a Special Sweeper.Maxus wrote: Hey, Koumei, Surgo, whoever, what's the slang term for a pokemon that fucks up shit and won't go down easy except to the specific stuff it's weak to?

Prak, as far as adult content creatures goes, I'd love to see a Gardevoir in dominatrix garb decapitating N, or that really retarded asshole who is in each gym and gives you Fresh Water for no real reason, or really any character in Black/White, all the while having Gyro Man's theme song playing in the background.

@Maxus: Offensively I think it's much better but defensively a bit worse (since there are Fighting moves that can target its weaker Sp. Def.)
@Koumei: Many really good Pokemon explode on contact with a type or two, so I'm not worried about that.
@Shrapnel: Two things:
1. Seriously, you chose like the 5th and 7th most annoying characters in the game as your first and second choices, respectively; there's more wrong with you than I thought.
2. It should be a male Gardevoir (still in dominatrix garb) with "Sweet Transvestite" playing in the background.

More and more rival trainers seem confused, and are facing away from me when the battle starts - female hiker and female ace trainer so far, but probably more to come.
No wonder they lose, they don't even know where I am. Unless they know I'm a movie star and are making an offer. That could be the case, actually, given I released a box office hit that raked in 999.9 billion pokedollars.
And with all the big pearls, nuggets etc. you get given, this makes money an actual joke. I bought everything from the TM store despite not giving a shit about those TMs (note: one thing I love about 5Gen: TMs are re-usable), and can constantly buy everything (limited though it may be at the moment) from my Join Avenue.
Went to the city yesterday, but while it found the wi-fi connection at McDonalds, it couldn't connect to the Nintendo server, meaning there could have been a problem at my end (hardware fucked), at their end (Nintendo .au server down/busy) or in the middle (security/bandwidth-limit at McDonalds). And I'll never know, because Nintendo have a policy of "Fuck you, you don't need the details!" I'll try the town library today, apparently they have a wi-fi hotspot.
(The guy at EB Games was really helpful, explaining how to download Genesect, and we got into a discussion about PokeStar, and shinies)

Fun fact: I one-shotted Black Kyurem with my Pupitar (bastard's at 52 now, and ironically, if it had evolved by this point, Black Kyurem would've probably killed it, since it used Teravolt on my Pupitar for unknown reasons;) fortunately, you're supposed to KO it, and can (according to a friend that's played through the game) make a new one after you beat the Elite Four, and you fight Black/White Kyurem right before Victory Road (which is right before you beat the Elite Four.)
Think I'm going to trade my Reshiram and Kyurem from Black to Black 2, and see if I can make a Black Kyurem and a White Kyurem and have them both on my team at the same time; heading to Victory Road now.
More importantly, there is a moral speech in this game, but it's the same one that's in every game (i.e. treat your Pokemon with love and hippie shit like that, and the bad guys lose because they don't do this; trite, but tolerable) as opposed to all the rambling bullshit from Black/White (let everyone do what they want because this is TOLERANCE and TOLERANCE is GOOD, unless they're the game's criminal team, in which case, they're puppy-kicking, mustache-twirling EVIL and NEED TO BE STOPPED NO MATTER THE COST because they're the BAD GUYS)

Austrailia still has EB Games? Holy shit. All we got up here in New England is Gamestop, who have effectively eaten every other game store. Sure, they say their a part of EB, but I have not seen one in over thirteen years...
On a related note, I started up a new file in my copy of FireRed, cause why the fuck not? Am a Female trainer, named Ruth (again, why the fuck not?), and named my rival Jimmy, from the Old Man Henderson thing. Chose Squirtle as my starter, named it Turtler after the Japenese Seacon (although I should have named it タートラー, dammit). Kept trying to catch a Pikachu in Viridian Forest, kept failing, and have just beaten The Brock.
Yet another, unrelated note: I bought Megaman Zero collection for the DS today, but I'm somewhat scared to play it, because I used to have Megaman Zero, the first one for the GBA, and it was as a hard as all out fuck. I have many horror stories from that game... So, a bit reluctant to play it yet...

So, I managed to get Jeanne in Bayonetta today through the phone booth cheat. Awesome.
In order to play as her, you have to start a new game, which is a bit of a pain - going through everything again, having to collect all the secrets (weapons, costumes, et al) - but I don't mind too much.
She plays exactly the same as Bayonetta, the only real differences are cosmetic (i.e. weapons and some attacks are colored different, etc.). The story doesn't change to reflect the fact that you're playing as someone other than Bayonetta, and in all the cutscenes, Jeanne is just skinned over her.
It's really funny when Jeanne fights herself.
Also managed to get Pillow Talk (with Bayonetta), again through the phone booth cheat. It's a reskin of the sword weapon (I forget the name), but far more powerful and lightsaber-y.
Now, I just have to save up enough Halos to get Little Zero. Anyone know a good place to go Halo farming?
ALSO! In other news, I've heard a rumor that's becoming more and more likely that Fallout 4 will be set in the Boston/Cambridge area. I nearly died of excitement when I heard this, seeing as how I live in Boston and all.

Also managed to get Pillow Talk (with Bayonetta), again through the phone booth cheat. It's a reskin of the sword weapon (I forget the name), but far more powerful and lightsaber-y.
Now, I just have to save up enough Halos to get Little Zero. Anyone know a good place to go Halo farming?
ALSO! In other news, I've heard a rumor that's becoming more and more likely that Fallout 4 will be set in the Boston/Cambridge area. I nearly died of excitement when I heard this, seeing as how I live in Boston and all.

No! It's Eric, the half a bee

So it's like playing Scorpion or Sub-Zero in Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks?
Also, my Pupitar finally evolved into Tyrannitar and I'm just about ready to kick Elite Four Ass (still have the bulk of Victory Road to go through.)

Welcome, to IronHell.

Peculiar properties of spacetime ensure that the perception of the magnitude of Soon is fluid and dependent, not on an individual's time-reference, but on spatial and cultural location. A marketer generally perceives Soon as a finite, known, yet unspeakable time-interval; to a fan, the interval appears greater, and may in fact approach the infinite, becoming Never. Once the interval has passed, however, a certain time-lensing effect seems to occur, and the time-interval becomes vanishingly small. We therefore see the strange result that the same fragment of spacetime may be observed, in quick succession, as Soon, Never, and All Too Quickly.
