10 Changes All Future Pokémon Games Need To Make

Since Red & Blue, the fastest mode of transportation on the small scale has been a key item, your bicycle. X & Y innovated on this, by giving the player roller skates before the bike, but they did not delete it from the game.

Unfortunately, Sun & Moon removed the feature that had been part of the franchise since it had first begun, replacing it with riding fast moving Pokémon like Tauros. It is an outrage, and fans cannot and should not stand for it.

All of the outrages aside, Tauros was an unreliable method of transportation, because the mechanics surrounding him were too clunky to control. That might be by design, as the player is literally bull riding, but it doesn't hold up to the sleeker and more efficient biking in X & Y.

It is a small detail, but it is one of the story beats that fans have known and enjoyed for years. It's almost peculiar as to why the developers would remove a feature as time-tested as the bicycle and not replace it with something far superior.
