I heard that Move Pokemon is going to be the first option when using a PC, AND that there will be an additional Eeveelution named Oreon. Steel type or cookie type; you decide.

Cookie type.

Indefinitely.

500 new pokemon.
50 of them being moar evolutions nobody wanted.
450 being legendaries.

Chikorita, Cyndaquil and Totodile perhaps?

>>68
There all ready up there. IMO I doubt it has anything to do with Gen V though.

>>69
*And by there, I'm mean they're.

>>67
Would that actually surprise anyone.


They won't be Gen 2 Starters, the middle looks like pikachu's ears, left looks like Arceus and Right is Raichu, by the looks of things.

We can hope :)

I think /beedrill/ works for news and uncertainties.
I would've put Gen V speculation in /con/, though.

I think a brand new thread is needed. Maybe I'll go make it in /con/.

>>72
Hmm yeah I guess.
Speculation should really be in /lore/, though, I guess :/ spams up /beedrill/ and en V isn't confirmed, so it's technically not a game :/

>>73
Well if I wanted to talk about where they should go with the show, I'd talk about it in the TV/Anime section.
Seen?

I would love to see /lore/ used more, but honestly /lore/ and /truck/ have been too dead. I don't think they have enough potential. Awesome board ideas, but they're too specific for right now.

platinum is still making money. hold out for the pokemon MMO that is destined to happen. The tiny 3rd party programmers who made pokeman ranch thingy on wii asked nintendo to do a pokemon mmo despite the times showing how inadequate they are financialy to do it hundredfold (meaning some shenanigans goin down somewhere...) Miyamoto asked them in to talk and they never spoke of it again. I think they got paid off because there is already one in progress elsewhere... that or contracted a ton of cash to do it.

If they suddenly anounced a pokemon MMORPG that is 3d, gijinkas with pokemonesque armors (for respective stats) using pokemon moves, gijinkas train into stats and choose their "element" but have no actual classes, and non turn based... goon quests for TMs... that could be BALLSA if they keep with the innocent simplicity of NES not liek those world of warcraft fucktards... would you blame me if i hope and suspect its coming? wii HD is coming out it may even be 512 bits ore more...

I did hear that Game Freak has recently requested for quite a few new staff. New project? Perhaps.

I'm thinking another Arceus, Pikachu and Raichu

>>93
Pikachu and Raichu evolutions for that Shokotan Pichu nonsense or is it still confirmed for not evolving?

If they do introduce more legendaries, just how much farther can they go? How much farther WILL they go? I mean, we already do have a God pokemon. What's left to do?

I dunno probably some fuckin bad ass demon monster or some shit

Maybe they'll just retcon it so that somehow Arceus is just the creator of a different dimension. then they make legendaries that are just like embodimenys of stuff like the beasts in g/s/hg/ss/fr/lf and the birds in r/b/g/fr/lg/(not sure what other games theyre in now) and the regis in r/s/e. interspersed in between will be remakes. then in generation 7 or 8 they'll have a pokemon which created Arceus and maybe the next generation they'll finally have a mew that doesn't require an event or a glitch. then there'll be more remakes, followed by the next generation which will have the pokemon who created everything. then next generation they'll have a game with every legendary made so far excluding Mewtwo probably able to be caught without glitches/hax/events. and then probably they'll recycle that plan until pokemon stops making money, which will be a long while probably. let's face it, pokemon is going to be milked for many many years to come. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a remake of r/s/e soon, as early as next generation even.

I thought it was silly that people would think PUSA would have a twitter page.
I was suspicious from the get-go.

Normally I dislike these kinds of videos, rather than a credible website. I think the actual info only lasts about 1:30, rest is music.

TL;DR
New Pokémon species to possibly be revealed in 13th movie. Makes sense to me - they did it in previous films. Right now seems like the right time, since Gen IV is done, but the DS2 isn't even announced yet. BUT DS2 will likely be announced by June's E3. Maybe DS2 will see an early Pokémon release, and even further - maybe we'll see <i>two</i> original games on DS2. All thanks to the DS's abnormal cycle length.

HOLY CRAP GUYS! Just thought of something. DS2 is said to have advanced hardware, officially:
http://ds.nintendolife.com/news/2010/01/ds_follow_up_to_feature_motion_sensor

So, remember when Game Freak was working on a new game? THE DS2 GAME COULD BE THAT GAME!

DS2 Pokémon game may have super awesome 3D graphics!

>>256
I dunno, I think Nintendo is gonna milk the DSi for all it's worth before we see a fully new console. Did you notice when the DS Lite came out that they kept it with the Nitro numbering system (NTR-XXX) right? Well look at the model numbers on the DSi an its related hardware: it's a whole new model line, which means Nintendo is treating it as a whole new system.
tl;dr- DS2 = DSi

The motion sensor crap was a homebrew-made expansion pak for slot-2, which was rather innovative I must admit. As for the new chips that Nintendo has supposedly signed a deal for... well there's no guarantee what they'll do with them, but I'm not holding my breath...


An early pokémon release however might be a bit more plausible, given that GameFreak now seems to be closer to a first party developer than second party one in terms of how much influence they have over the design of new hardware. I wouldn't be surprised if we find that the next console or handheld has a feature that was added specifically because GameFreak wanted if for Gen V.

>>259
Do I need to do this? Okay, here you go:
GBA: AGB-001
GBA SP: AGS-001
GB Micro: OXY-001
DS: NTR-001
DS Lite: USG-001
DSi: TWL-001

Each new hardware receives a new model number acronym. It helps ID various official accessory products like AC adapters and stylus and such, since they vary between systems. (Excepting the GBA SP/DS charger, which are the same functionally, but they still released separate chargers.)

Nintendo is only looking into chips - so far we know they've looked at two different companies.
This new article I linked to isn't just some dude talking, it's straight from the Nintendo president. Motion sensing + highly detailed graphics = confirmed. Highly detailed is without number and a bit ambiguous, but my money is on GameCube quality or higher.

As for the usefulness of motion sensing in a handheld, it's difficult to foresee. When the DS first came out, everybody said "What are you going to do with two screens?".

And I think I've actually said your last bit elsewhere: That Game Freak may have a say in a handheld's design simply because Pokémon is (one of?) the highest selling franchise on Nintendo handhelds.
