Probably not. I think they'd want to go something less gender focused. You'll have tons of little kids going "I don't want Pokémon Queen! I'm not a girl!"

I think Crown/Sceptre could work but they aren't really opposites like most if not all the Pokemon Titles
this is one hell of a coincidence if it turns out to be a coincidence
Pokemon Crown and Pokemon Tiara sounds equally silly.
I don't think they work as a title for a different reason: they don't mean much outside of the UK.
Translate these titles in French or Spanish and they loose their meanings. Pokemon Couronne & Pokemon Sceptre are terrible titles.
i've been enjoying Let's Go way more than any mainline entry for years.
i don't know what i want from gen 8. maybe less hand holding and more of a challenge. shake things up. make gyms more difficult and make the elite 4 into a proper tournament competition.

Is this based on the weedle tweet?
I can see CP and weight being a tease but the number of candies Idk about that
The date is what was initially speculated, the latter stuff is just more musing.
Rumored UK region
Insiders referred to it as "BOTW moment for Pokémon"
Back in 2017 they said it would be even more story focused, and that they understand the expectations are high for the first home console title, but they confirmed it would not be open world
Might be on the same engine as Town, which might be Unity (speculation)
They said it won't be focused on being an entry point for the series and it will be more for old fans
Matsuda has done this before, Masuda hinted Pokemon Let's Go's Annoucment with a Pokemon Go Tweet - 5:29 for 29.5.
Nice thanks! I trust that these rumors are from reliable insiders.
What's the source for the UK rumor?
There is no source for UK other than assumptions based on Let's Go
Also, both the Pokemon Go Tweet and the Moon is out alongside the Sun Tweet back in 2016 were both roughly 10-11 days before the reveals, and this new tweet is 12 days before the 26th. These are some fucking coincidences if this meant nothing m.
Yeah, i doubt this is a coincidence for that reason. I think we are going to get a reveal before the end of the month
Eh, we have heat waves, y'know? Had a pretty bad one last year. My part of the country, especially, is pretty dry: we rarely see snow, and rain tends to come in stormy bursts.
Question - do you think the Reigon will just be England based or will have elements from Scotland,Northern Ireland,Wales?
The insider in question is our reliable king zell, who got the Let's Go reveal right and leaked the date of the last direct and the existence of Mario Maker 2 and 2D Zelda among other things
The UK rumor, I have no idea. It kinda spread from different things and people
Oh it's King Zell, well the dude hasn't been wrong before regarding things.
Hopefully all. I just hope they don't cause any diplomatic incidents
Those pokemon suspected of being hinted at also have King and Quen in the Japanese names too, looks pretty believable.
Doubt it. I don't think having a UK Pokemon Setting would cause any incidents
I'm not being totally serious, but if there isn't a Fish & Chips Pokemon I'll be marching on the streets.
they'll do all the british isles for the sake of geographical diversity. having another landlocked region would suck
There's no way Game Freak won't resist doing a Water/Fairy Teacup Pokemon that becomes a Teapot
In all seriousness there is a lot of cool lore/myths in the United Kingdom as well as real life animals that could make for a diverse Pokemon roster if we end up seeing some Pokemon based on The United Kingdom
Wouldn't that be a Sheep Pokemon though since Haggis is made out of Sheep's pluck (heart, liver, and lungs)
Pokemon Let's Go Nidoqueen and Nidoking.
I wonder what BOTW moment would mean for Pokemon?
That's typically what you'll get if you ask for one in a restaurant, real Wild haggis are hard to catch and pretty rare these days.
probably a more open game that will set the template going forward
I guess. SuMo was really linear compared to some other games in the series so it's definitely not hard to be better in that. But to have a BOTW moment in game world design, the new one should be compared to those older games.
Controllable camera with a bit more open environments + overworld Pokémon
there you go
Umm, pretty sure that Wild Haggis are fictional creatures
This could make for a fun Pokemon inspiration though
I hate to be that guy and try to connect these dates, but that was tweeted on May 18 2018, 11 days before the May 29, the day before the reveal
The current tweet was tweeted yesterday on February 15 2019, add 11 to 15 and you get the 26 of February
Maybe there could be a reveal on Pokemon Day itself, it is on a Wednesday this year
but the only thing we'll get is The Power of Us on Pokemon's official website like we did last year with I Choose you
No it wasn't.
It didn't go live until the Pokémon Press Conference which started at 10:00 JST/01:00 UTC with the trailer being revealed at around 01:30 UTC on May 30th.
The majority of the world, including Japan where Masuda lives, got it on May 30th. Masuda wouldn't have teased an American date in Japanese to his Japanese followers, plus the people saying "May 22nd announcement for May 29th reveal" were way off
People are clutching at straws
Number of Candy is more likely to be a tease than anything else.
I mean it's not, it's a coincidence, but my point stands.
Is a Pokémon Day or Pokémon Day Eve reveal possible? Yes, absolutely. Is this a hint to it? God no
I'm not gonna get my hopes up on this one. It feels like straw-grasping. I'm content just knowing we'll likely get the reveal reasonably soon.
It was more of a joke man. I'm from the UK, Halifax West Yorkshire born and raised :p
I'm trying to think of some click-baity hidden meaning in the tweet being Weedle, but I got nothing. Bug and Poison legendaries? 5 eeveelutions to bring the total number up to 13 (weedles dex number)? Just a weedle bit more time before an announcement?
We've found our route 1 normal type.Umm, pretty sure that Wild Haggis are fictional creatures
This could make for a fun Pokemon inspiration though
