Big Pokemon News???
« on: June 05, 2017, 01:30:54 PM »
Anyone have any guesses on what this is going to be?  Last time I saw anything like this it was to announce Sun/Moon.  I've heard rumors of a completer game called Pokemon Stars.  Could they be announcing that?  What do you guys think it's going to be?

I'm hoping it's Switch related. I still need more incentive to get the system. :lol: Plus a home console Pokémon game would be awesome!

People are also speculating Gen 4 remakes.

I have a Super Nintendo with the Super Gameboy Cartridge and I used to put in Pokemon just to see it on the big TV.  Of course it wasn't GB Color compatible so I could only play the black and white games, which I thought was dumb because by the late 80s/early 90s when Super Nintendo came out almost all televisions were color.  It would be cool to get a Pokemon game that could be played on the big screen, but I don't have a Nintendo Switch.  Maybe if the cartridges for Nintendo Switch and 3DS were interchangeable I'd be more actively looking into a Switch. 

What I really want is for them to make a game that starts you out in Kanto and once you get all 8 badges and defeat the elite 4 it would open up Johto and the 2nd gen Pokemon and continue like that through all the games until you get through Alola.  If they made downloadable expansions each time a new game came out it would be an eternal Pokemon game and you wouldn't necessarily have to use the Pokebank to move your team from game to game or start over with a new team every time.  I don't like to download my games (I use the cartridges) but I'd be willing to pay for downloads for a Pokemon game that goes on forever like that.


Though if it is Pokemon Stars, it'll be the excuse I need to buy a 2DS so I can trade specific Pokemon that I don't want to lose to someone else but that need to trade to evolve.  I might also make that the game I do with all Disney names for my Pokemon :P

This so much. I'd LOVE to play this - and have one pokedex! I'm so sick of catching ratattas... every freaking generation! If you had bank I guess you could transfer them.. but I prefer to avoid subscription services.

Just did the math and realised that the announcement is at midnight our time... looks like I'm staying up late again!

Diamond and Pearl remakes please! I adore those games for the most part, but despise how slowly they play. Either that or a game for the Switch.

I hope it's not on the switch, because I much rather have it for the 3DS. Or it could be on both.

That way people can have either version.

Okay so they announced Pokken Tournament for the Switch,  UltraSun and UltraMoon for 3DS (coming in November), and re-release of GOLD and SILVER in September for 3DS play.

The only one of those that I'm excited about is Gold and Silver because my first game was Crystal (which I hope they add to the lineup) and I'd love to play the original Johto games again.  And they will be Pokebank compatible so now I can transfer all the legendaries to a newer game.

I actually felt a little let down by the Direct today. Nothing really.... groundbreaking, I guess, in my opinion. At least nothing to really live up to the hype that got built up. I also wish they would stop with the weird doubling up on games. I own Black2 and White2, but never played them because I had -just- finished going through the original White when they came out. And right now, I'm still working my way through Moon just due to a lack of time to really sit down and play, so I'm not really interested in getting a newer, shiny Moon 2 version. I would have loved to see a main Pokemon game for the Switch, or some new pokemon amiibo, or even some Pokemon Go news lol. But, that is all just my opinion.

Well, that was... Not too exciting, but not too disappointing either if the new games actually have new pokemon. Also looking forward to Gold and Silver!

Right?  I hate the doubling up, too.  I might go in for UltraMoon just because I already have Sun but I just barely made it to the third island so I'm not really chomping at the bit for a new game.  Even if they had announced a "completer" game (like Pokemon Stars has been rumored to be) I'd be more excited about it.

But I REALLY hope they add Pokemon Crystal before the Gold/Silver release date like they added Yellow to the Red/Blue announcement.

I'll probably play Silver for nostalgia sake, but with Soul Silver existing (and being far more fun imo), it'll be hard for me to go back. :lol:

I'm actually glad that Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon will be on the 3DS. As much as I want a Pokemon game on the Switch, my husband and I both play Pokemon and we're not buying two Switches just so we can both play. So yeah, that's actually a good thing. Maybe there will be a Pokemon game on the Switch some time in the future, but I'm okay with this.

Some new Pokemon Amiibo would be awesome!

I never got Heart Gold or Soul Silver and even used they're about $50 so I'll settle for the download.  (Plus, I totally know where there's a shiny Metapod in those games :P)
