I will be disappointed if the Pearl/Diamond/Platin remake will be in Lets go style. I remember them asking if people want a potential Gen 4 remake in the "normal" or "lets go" style.

They completely own the trademark
And if they're doing an MMO, it would be more mobile and switch slanted. Maybe with a PC version
The point is that TPC / Tencent need Nintendo approval on what platforms the games appear on. They cannot make a decision that Nintendo opposes, they can block any project.
Yes, those were the platforms I had in mind. Small chance for PC but there is already a Pokemon game there (TCGO) so I wouldn't rule it out completely.
TCGO runs in a toaster, I think that is very different from a big game.
that's the thing, everyone always goes "but the models" despite the fact I'm not talking about the models. yea some of them are bad, but everything else is well above Sword and Shield. the accurate pokemon sizes, the flourishes of the attack animations, and the arenas (which SS is only starting to scrape as far as being fully 3d)
yea, but I don't think they will given the nature of the game.
Depends what you mean by attack animations. The movements of the Pokémon? Yes, but the move effects are way better in SWSH. I agree the arenas themselves are better except the various gym stadiums which are perfectly realized compared to the rest
I can see SS having better moves, though I guess that's up to tastes. one thing I like about BR's moves is the usage of distortion effects, camera angles, what not. the gyms in SS are great and can only mean great things in the future. they should start thinking outside the box for Gen 9. the contemporary-ness of the series is starting to wear on the aesthetics a bit. won't hurt to go a bit more fantastical with some arena designs. Spikemuth was a huge missed opportunity. a run-down city controlled by the resident gang? after Po Town, I was fuckin hyped
That's why I liked Alola so much. It was much more nature-driven and exotic than other regions but in a "ancient culture" kind of way instead of just "normal" nature like for example HoennI can see SS having better moves, though I guess that's up to tastes. one thing I like about BR's moves is the usage of distortion effects, camera angles, what not. the gyms in SS are great and can only mean great things in the future. they should start thinking outside the box for Gen 9. the contemporary-ness of the series is starting to wear on the aesthetics a bit. won't hurt to go a bit more fantastical with some arena designs.

The one thing gamefreak hasn't seemed to fix is blastoise using its cannons for water, I'm sure the old 3D games managed that. I do think they're improving just hope they can add more personality to the Pokemon where appropriate.I can see SS having better moves, though I guess that's up to tastes. one thing I like about BR's moves is the usage of distortion effects, camera angles, what not. the gyms in SS are great and can only mean great things in the future. they should start thinking outside the box for Gen 9. the contemporary-ness of the series is starting to wear on the aesthetics a bit. won't hurt to go a bit more fantastical with some arena designs.

OP
I'm just glad we moved past the maddening period where people actually expected Gen 4 remakes on 3DS even after Sun and Moon lol
it would be really cool if they introduced regional arenas for multiplayer.
- Silph Co.
- Mount Silver
- Sky Pillar
- The Distortion World
- Battle Subway
- Anistar Town
- Alter of the Sunne/Moone
Seems the most logical next big thing to announce.
It's either not big at all for core gamers or this imho.
It's too early to announce the next mainline game if the release schedule is for november 2021. It's gotta be something else.
They ALMOST did exactly that in USUM, where they made regional battle arenas... for the photo minigame lol
Huh, the Tencent division making the Pokemon game is responsible for Call of Duty mobile. The game is probably going to be massive but terribly uninteresting to most users here
I feel like the types of people who would watch Pokemon presents/directs aren't the same audience that would heavily play mobile games (that's just my opinion can't prove it and could be wrong) so I'm holding out hope that either there's more than just that announced or the mobile game is designed to appeal to those who like RPG's and the core series in general.
if it's just another mobile Pokemon game without anything special to it I doubt they'd of bothered separating the events.
It's not going to be "just another mobile game". That is Pokemon Café.
Collaboration with Tencent aims to be as big as Pokemon Go.
Maybe enough to announce it and have an alpha/beta this year? (if that is even possible when talking about pokemon)
I realise that Pokemon go is massive and so a second project of that magnitude might easily warrant it's own presentation but i still have a feeling we may still get a teaser for something else.
Especially if they were only looking for a creative director 11 months ago I can't imagine they will be enough to show us if it's to be a massive project.
Hmmmm this actually really confuses me then. Assuming it is purely mobile I could see a beta by the end of the year
edit: Competitive elements definitively makes me lean more towards Moba, does anyone else have any idea about what competitive mobile games top the charts?
At this moment BR mobile games are booming. Otherwise, MOBA and RAID.
Maybe they just want to better highlight this partnership, since at the moment not many people know about it. And at the same time, they could provide information about this future game, maybe together with a demo. After all, considering these job listings, I would not say it is going to be released in 2020 (then maybe it isn't, I don't know how much time it takes to develop mobile MOBA games), and instead could be released next year.
TiMi already has all the necessary things to make a MOBA "fast". Just grab their Arena of Valor engine and make it into Pokémon (along with gameplay changes ofc). If it's a MOBA, it might be very similar to that game. Also, Arena of Valor is on Switch.

Pokémon TCG Online already exists. Not very popular, but it's there. I doubt it's a card game.
I would not be surprised by a release in early 2021, indeed. Maybe they can first release it on mobile, than a few months later on Switch if they need more time for a (possibly easy) port.
Lmfao I forgot about thatPokémon TCG Online

Well there goes my hype out the window. I wanted Johto remakes in the style of Let's Go but branded differently.
It's incredibly unlikely for them to reveal a main series game before the marketing cycle of the current main series game is done.
I doubt it. The posting was 11 months ago and we have no idea how long it took to fill that role. I'd bet at least a month or 2. So, with 9-10 months development time (maximum) I doubt Tencent has much to show. Although, Zhuge being excited makes me think it is the Tencent game.
Is it likely to be solely focused on a single game for this next Pokemon presents? With the game not having had a years development time so far I'd of though it possible they had more than a single announcement.
I know. I had just kinda fooled myself into believing they could release a Let's Go game and not cut into sales of the Expansion Pass but I realize it's just me being a bit too hyped on Pokémon lately.
I mean, the first Let's Go, even though it was a mainline game, was being catered to a different audience of Pokemon fans. I could absolutely see them revealing Let's Go Johto, but not Diamond & Pearl remakes.
It's something that would sell really well and wouldn't need anything more than a title to get those interested in the concept hyped, unfortunately I don't think they'd announce a separate conference just for a let's go sequel but I refuse to completely give up hope that they may include it as a last second teaser until the very end.
Thats a good point. The only way to get one is to get both and I doubt there's a significant amount of people waiting to pick up the pass in November
That's why Masuda said there are no plans for another Let's Go game lol
It sold well but didn't really do what it was supposed to
I wouldn't say so. there were gates, but it wasn't that high, especially since evolved pokemon count towards those gates
