Pokemon just went full 3D in 2013, so I wouldn't count on drastic changes.

What I'd like to happen is for the handheld to keep receiving these simple Pokemon games, I'm fine with that. But for God's sake, make that AAA rpg on the home console will ya? You can even just stick with the first Gens for the first game huh? No need for all 700+ Pokemons. These feelings intensified after I've played Ni no Kuni.

But doing the math, Pokemon will only go HD in 2023 or something.

If we were getting AAA console Pokemon games, I wouldn't care, but we aren't and according to gamefreak we won't ever get one. I do count on drastic changes. The Pokemon game I described couldn't be done on the 3DS. But it absolutely will be possible on the next generation handheld. They need to capitalize on that opportunity. If they don't want to make a console Pokemon, they damn sure better put all they can into a handheld Pokemon.

And Pokemon will never "just stick with the first Gens" for any Pokemon game ever. There is a need for all 700+ Pokemon. There's a competitive scene to uphold. People need to stop asking that, seriously.

And not even Ni No Kuni is big enough. Pokemon can be Xenoblade big. Ni No Kuni is a drop in Xenoblade's ocean. Pokemon needs an ocean too.

Assuming they would follow this "games as they are on handhelds and big AAA games on home consoles" scenario, the AAA game wouldn't have to worry that much about the competitive scene. It would be about having a big adventure, not so much "raising your Pokemons to fight other people".

That's what I think anyway.
