Shadow Pokemon, with a solution to the new gen 5 dreamworld abilities :)

(1/4) > >>

Amphi:
Shadow pokemon as in the type of pokemon that were in Colosseum and Gale of Darkness. If they were to be added i would say that they should be similar to the designs to the games listed previously, were as the player would gradually purify the said shadow pokemon until it eventually became "pure".
I believe that if that would be implemented it, it would most likely be an expansion. It would give players an opportunity to do something aside from gym battles or mini games if they're implemented, purifying shadow pokemon could become a sort of job, similar to how crafting works in fantasy mmorpgs.
The reward to taking the challenge of purifying such pokemon would be none other than the purified pokemon having different abilities than the pokemon one would catch normally, this could compensate for the new feature in black and white, called dream world abilities.
Also the sprite for a shadow pokemon wouldn't be that difficult to make, all one would have to do it make a dark looking aura that would work universally for all shadow pokemon and then have it be put onto the original pokemon's sprite, also a shadow pokemon could either look like its normal counter part when following the player or not be able to follow at all, this would save on the troublesome editing of Overworld sprites.
 
An example would be the following:

I think this is a pretty good idea. Shadow pokemon are pretty cool, but they're are only about 18 different kinds of shadow moves (and all the attacks are super effective with unlimited PP) but we cant really choose them because they dont level up.Where would the purification process take place though. Would there be various locations where it would be possible to purify them?

there probably would be a "purification" machine in every major city somewhere, possibly in a pokemon center

As far as Dream World abilities go, I think we're probably just going to have them in the random generation pool.
It's just easier for everyone :)

but that would just make it easier for people to get the abilities that could possibly be better for a pokemon
