Well shit, now we have a ton of people jumping on this rumor. Gen 1 remakes with Pokemon Go actually being involved sounds so incredibly disappointing. Strangely though, I like the thought of Eevee on the boxart. 

Well, I think it is too early for a new gen, since we have only 2 years from SM.I didnt expect a 2018 game to be a new gen game. Add kimishima declarations of old players coming back to reach the 20 million switches. It was kind of expected.

In 2019 or 2020 we will see a brand new generation, so, not much different for those who think The new game was a new generation.

Yea, its hard to have such a drastic change for a game to release in 2018 after it was announced a year ago. Plus, its Game Freak's first HD developed Pokémon game so they need some time to get used to the kinks of HD development, which means more manpower, more time, and more money.
