I'll be hapy with anything I just want them to announce the damn thing already.
END ALL THIS SUFFERING! PLEASE POKEMON CO. / NINTENDO. We have known for over two weeks that it will be Lets go Pikachu / Eevee. It's time.
She already said she didn't ever specifically say it would be in direct form. The assumption being that she declines to clarify any further.
It is best to stop trying to call her out and just let her stroll in when she feels like it.
Will y'all stop feeding?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Gen 4 is when the gens consistently started having great designs all around. There's way more bad designs in the early gens.
Are a lot of other people here (especially younger gamers) in this boat? Starting the series a later generation and then never going back to the original (or FR/LG)?
I honestly would love it if they started the game at 151, encouraging you the "catch em all" and then casually introduce gen 2 as DLC a few months down the line. It would keep people from trading their copies in once they beat the game if they have a shit ton more Pokémon to run out and find - even if the story is over. Or they could even have story elements intertwined with the DLC as well. Endless opportunities.
Imagine not being happy with only 151. They're the original set. They're the greatest Pokémon ever. All great designs and didn't need to use objects like a toaster or a magnet or a pokeball.
Maybe something already happened. Maybe something's happening right now. Maybe something will never happen. Maybe we've entered a closed loop in the timeline and we'll wake up tomorrow to eagerly post in PokéSwitch Speculation Thread 1, unaware of the suffering that lies ahead and the innocence soon to be lost. Who can say.
Do you have a minute to spare and praise the best "Pikachu" clone in all 7 generations? Emolga is the best.
Emolga's definitely my favorite.
Honestly, I wouldnt have gone back if I had started after FR/LG came out.
You guys are only saying this because you know Mimikyu crushes the competition. :P
It's embarrassing.
I doubt many people are, considering how widely popular Kanto is. My main reason not to play it so far is that playing before Physical/Special split sounds like pain and is something I regret when I went back to playing Emerald.
Yeah but those fans will probably play no matter what. If you want to appeal to the masses (like the people who played Pokémon Go) you gotta only have the OG 151. It gets too overwhelming beyond that. Ask any random person to name a Pokémon and they will almost certainly name a gen 1. Gen 1 has a mass appeal that no subsequent gen has.
If it's too overwhelming, why do the games keep selling 15-18 million? Not all 800 pokemon are in every game anyway.
I'm not sure people would really be interested in DLC that just scatters new Pokemon throughout Kanto. Are we supposed to just scour the same patches of grass over again? Now DLC that adds a new region? That sounds better.
Having Gen 1 only Pokémon then making other gens DLC sounds like an awful idea, it doesn't sound "lit" whatsoever especially when people complained about FRLG being dumb as hell by removing Day/Night so you couldn't evolve Espeon/Umbreon and not allowing Gen 1 Pokemon to evolve into their superior forms. How braindead.
Yep, I started with gen 4, the only game I've gone back to is emerald, but I didn't feel the need to play gen 1/2 since there was HGSS
I read something about that Oha Suta episode description was changed from "shocking" to just "full of information". Is the hype cancelled?
It's funny because I bet most genwunners love pokemon like scizor, umbreon, steelix, togepi, etc, but those will all be deleted.
They're both squirrels so it makes sensePachirisu and Emolga look like branch evos from the same Pokémon.

I've always thought that Electrode was too big, this just confirms it
She speculated that the game would not be revealed at E3 because they are launching it with an accessory and she didn't think E3 was the right place for that announcement.
She's kept everything she's shared vague because A) Things can change and B) I'm pretty sure theres a lot of speculation mixed in with what she has told us. The vaguer you are, the easier it is to be right and thus maintain cred with your worshipers.
I think that someone simply spilled the beans too early and that's why they changed the title to a more neutral one.
I've never played a Pokémon, so I can't relate to or understand half of what's happening in here, but I'm still HYPED AF.
This will be my first Pokemon game, so I guess I'm hoping for Gen 1.

15-18 million is cool. You know what's cooler? 47 million. That's what gen 1 sold.
Well, what if GameFreak revamps the base stats of old Kanto pokemon along with their movepools. I think the likelyhood of this is high, as this will make Kanto pokemon more popular in the competetive scene, something I think GameFreak wants to achieve. If GameFreak would do that, then we could essentially have three new eevolutions: Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon. Imagine Flareon having a base stat of 65 / 135 / 75 / 65 / 85 / 115 (instead of 65 / 130 / 60 / 95 / 110 / 65), thereby having a total base stat of 540, an increase of 15 from 525.
She wasn't vague today. She said the games are being revealed before thursday.
So you are saying that if they only include the OG 151 this game will sell that much? Nice logic.
