Not happening. Not with Gen 10 anyway. Game Freak may take longer than most to move on to next gen, but when they DO jump in with the next generations, it's all in. X/Y on the 3DS in 2013; Let's Go and Sw/Sh on the Switch in 2018 and 2019. I do think a cross-gen Pokemon game is coming, but it's not gonna be either Legends Z-A or Gen 10. Once we get to that Pokemon Presents at the end of the month, I think we get 3 major things: 1) Trailer and footage of Legends Z-A - Switch 1 exclusive, releasing in Q2/Q3 2025. 2) Announcement that Pokemon Gen 10 currently in development exclusively for Gen 2. 3) Pokemon Black/White remakes releasing cross-gen for Switch 1 and Switch 2, releasing in Holiday 2025. |
As much as people are annoyed of Switch 1, history contradicts this: Like you said: Pokémon Black 2/ White 2 was coming exclusivley for Nintendo DS in late 2012 nearly 2 years Nintendo 3DS launch in march 2011. Ok, 3DS got Pokémon Ultra Sun/ Ultra Moon in late 2017 the year Switch launched, maybe you see a connection here, but in fact the Switch has a far more healthy decline than the Nintendo DS had and it will have better legs than the 3DS had 2018 onwards (except you believe the Switch will do ~2,5 million or less this year).
