Does Switch really needs Pokemon this year!?

[fleischr]

No. But it didn't need Pokemon to make a new entry on 3DS.

I think that's just going to confuse a lot of people. It of course makes 3DS a tempting buy for those who haven't gotten any Nintendo consoles - but they may feel burned several months into 2018 when they realize 3DS is finished.

However, if Ultra Sun/Moon were merely HD versions of this 3DS game I'd be disappointed. I want this series to really wow me with it's generational leap. I'm just going to have a wait a little longer for that than I'd like to.
