I read up to page 5; so, if this has been mentioned, forgive me.

However, the idea I had for transportation borrows from a few other games. I'm not saying that it should be a direct replica, but if it works, it works, you know? For flying, I do agree that it would detract from the overall game experience. Being able to fly between towns on the fly would make the game short, even with an abundance of content. So, instead, why not move along the lines of World of Warcraft and make it so that flying can happen between preset points. You would have to meet up with whoever was stationed at both of those points and pay to fly between them. That way, you would still have to travel everywhere on foot. It would just be more convenient for players who have already explored the land. The price would keep it from being abused, as well.

That's the idea, "something" like that.

We will have planes, trains, and automobiles
....and boats
 
Okay, I can't confirm any of those, but you get the idea.

Basically, as far as game play goes, they are very different, but when it comes to game code, transporting your character from one location to another, is all the same.

You can almost confirm planes, its in one of the pictures at the top of the site http://pokemon-universe.com/dump/ss_v2_1.png
