Forums - Nintendo - (My first thread) (prediction) The 3DS will receive one last exclusive mainline Pokemon game

Cross gen may make sense, but Nintendo would be hurting themselves not to have next Pokemon on Switch.

I predict
2018 - Pokemon on 3DS and significantly enhanced on Switch
2020 - Pokemon exclusive on Switch showing major graphical leap

I doubt it for one. The 3DS is actually not in mid-generation but at the end of it life, it's going to be 6 years old in a few days. If you are talking about a third game the "Stars" rumor it may but seeing there might be a chance that it will be a 2018 release I doubt it. Plus they may not do a thrid title like they ditch "Z".

I was talking about the Pokemon generations, not console generations. Sorry for not being clear on that. Each Pokemon game with a brand new region starts a new gen in Pokemon. However there is always at least two games in every generation. And all games in a single generation belong to the same handheld. EG. Ruby, Sapphire, FireRed, LeafGreen, and Emerald are the entirety of gen 3, and all of them came out on GBA and no other console



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

More than likely, Pokemon has a history of being late to the party



finally a prediction i got right.

Congrats! I don't think I ever got a prediction right. Maybe I should make more simple and realistic predictions?

Hey man, good for you!

Nice prediction



Hold on now, it's still too early to celebrate. Afterall you said "The 3DS will receive one last exclusive mainline Pokemon game." We don't yet know if there will be more after Ultra Sun/Moon. :L



Good call OP!
