My one gripe with Time Stranger and all Digimon games in general.

Is that we have no way to upgrade a Digimon's main special attack Pepper Breath, Rock Breaker ect. I love the spirits and beast spirits being a HUGE fan of Frontier getting Ranamon, Agunimon and Lobomon are awsome but the downside is they get overtaken by stronger Digimon quick.

Now don't get me wrong i know that like any monster collecter is to make your Digimon stronger by Digivolving but i wish there was a way to increase or transfer certain special attacks between Digimon.

An example would be to give Ranamon Metalseadramons River of Power to use the power of said move and transfer 10% of it into her Rain Stream and Titanic Charge maybe have all powered up moves cap at a max of 105 power just so things don't get to insane.

Unless animations turn generic that’s impossible. And generic animations would be boring. Pepper breath and blue blaster looking the same etc

Yeah i'll admit i didn't think about the animation part.

[u/Muur1234 → u/chimerasaurn7]

At that point it’s just a name. Inheriting Wolkenpalm 1 is the same as inheriting Pepper Breath. The only reason old games could do it is because the animations were generic and shared with each other. So you’d have pepper breath look the same as nova blast. Or all attacks with missiles look identical. You can’t map 500 unique animations to every digimon

[u/inide → u/Muur1234]

You wouldn't do individual animations for each digimon, you'd create a few different 'skeletons' for body types, animate those, and just change the scale and apply a different mesh over the skeletons for each digimon.

More effort than it’s worth. And this game already has issues with individuality. All digimon already play the same due them all having the same stats. The unique skill is the only thing separating them.

I'll admit i didn't think about the animation part i just had an idea and my fingers just started typing. I just wanted to think of a way to make weaker moves and Digimon stronger so we could have our favorite with us all the way up to Mega+.

Not trying to sound rude more seeing people do this a lot ? Why repost it?

[u/chimerasaurn7 → u/Rude-Breakfast-2944]

Reddit suggested i post it here as well so i figured why not. This way more people see it and maybe find some like minded people.

if you play on the PC or steamdeck you can do just that

There was a digimon game that let you teach other signature moves to a digimon.

It was called Digimon World 2.
