Gen 7 will be on NX. Masada said if there was a way to bring the console with you, he wouldn't be against putting a Pokemon on console. That's exactly what NX is.

As for how that Pokemon game takes shape, I want Pokemon to finally make that ALttP -> OoT/SMW -> M64 jump that it's been meaning to make for decades. I want a DQ11/XB level open world with Pokemon viewable in the overworld.

I also want a revamped, Ni no Kuni-inspired battle system. Pokemon's current battle system would remain largely untouched in the transition and it would add a fresh sense of urgency and immediacy to battles without sacrificing the strategic complexity competitive battlers like myself love so much.

I hate Pikatchu, snorlax, and Pokemon in general. So I don't care whether or not it is on NX. If any type of game has to be on it, make the best mainline Pokimon game that they can to attract large audiences to NX.


I don't understand how anyone can "hate" Pokemon. Like, I don't get how you can take such aggressive issue with such an uninvasive video game franchise. I don't care about AssCreed and I think they're bad games, but I don't hate AssCreed.

Type of Pokemon game... Probably one were the player goes through the multiple regions in the series on top of their own, quite enjoyed X/Y and OR/AS.


Ugh.

You understand why that can never happen, right? I never understood why people ask this. Imagine if people asked this kind of thing of other RPGs.

"The next Elder Scrolls should include all the past lands."

"The next Final Fantasy should include all the past lands."

"The next Dragon Quest should include all the past lands."

There will never be enough time and recources for such a game to be possible, unless they followed a Sims approach with a COD dev cycle and just released a new region every year as an expansion pack for one base game, with each expansion pack being done by a different developer over the course of three years. In which case it would take 7 years to complete. And that's if they didn't create an 8th generation in that time, which, judging by literally every generation before it, they will have.

So no, "every Pokemon region in one game" is probably never happening.

Who said every region? Nice strawman argument, Pokemon is about competing in leagues much like a sport in real like and numerous sports have competitors who compete across leagues.

This isn't like other RPGs were the goal is to just follow the story and stop the bad guy so your whole comparison to other RPGs is broken from the start although it's funny Elder Scrolls Online is going to dowhat you're trying to dismiss, Pokemon's concept not only allows the possibility of it but for it to work consistently well.

The way you worded it implied all. Excluding random regions in a multi region Pokemon for no reason would piss off the people who actually liked the excluded regions. This isn't Gen 2. We know there are more regions than just Kanto and Johto now, so they wouldn't get away with just releasing a game with Hoenn, Unova, and random Gen 7 region.

Pokemon is about exploring a world inhabited by Pokemon. It contains competing in leagues, but it isn't about competing in leagues.

Pokemon is 100% about following a story and stopping a bad guy. If it wasn't, and it was only about "competing in leagues," no one would care about "multiple regions" because nothing about the regions themselves lend to that. The game would just be full of Battle Frontier-type islands and zones and the goal would be to beat all the areas. But it isn't. All the Pokemon league is is a giant type matchup tutorial for newcomers. That's it. Pokemon isn't about gyms and the Pokemon league. It's about the Pokemon and the world. And there's competitive battling, used to flesh the Pokemon out, just like a character's moveset in any JRPG fleshes them out.

Elder Scrolls online includes every continent of every past game with the same density of content that those games had? I highly doubt that.



I want a survival horror version.



One that isn't for 7 year olds.

I understand Pokemon is generally accepted as a "kid friendly" series; but come on.

What about the kids (like myself) that fell in love with the originals (yellow/red/blue; which ironically are the most difficult of the entire series) that want more of a challenge?

The series never changes. Sure some gameplay modes are changed and visuals updated but the core mechanics are still built for little kids. And I'm an adult.

I deserve a manly Pokemon game. Or at least a difficulty option.

Actually yeah I'd settle for a simple option to raise the difficulty.

And no more pokemon dress up contests/shit with dolls. That shit is wack.
