Come on, do you really think the next pokemon gen is gonna be on 3ds? That's all kinds of wrong, worst scenario will be the third installment of this gen (Stars) on 3ds, but the next gen? Not a chance.

I sincerely hope the next gen of Pokemon is Switch exclusive, but I can easily see Nintendo being too chicken to let go of their 3DS audience.

The problem though is that they absolutely need new hardware if they want gen 8 to be even a bit more  ambitous and and slightly biggerthen Sun and Moon. Since anyone who has played the game can that game pushed the 3DS to its absolute limit and even had to cut features like tripple and rotation battles, and Pokemon following behind you (this was proven through a datamine since walking animations for all Pokemon including Shinies and Megas were found in the files of Sun and Moon) since the 3DS couldn't handled them. Gamefreak has no choice but to bring Pokemon to the Switch moving forward if they want to even try and make bigger and better games.
