While it's been long enough since this generation began, there are too many recent titles released FROM this generation. Platinum just released last year in most of the world, and most of the world hasn't even SEEN a release of HG/SS.
I anticipate that, if anything, this may be a fourth generation 3D RPG. Or a spinoff RPG of sorts. Game Freak does only the main-series games - SO FAR - but that doesn't mean that's all they'll ever do. We don't know; don't get your hopes up so much because the evidence weighs against it. |
actually the evidence backs it up. it'll be 4 years since diamond/pearl, about the amount of time between all the other generations, so it could be time.
plus the 4th gen anime and movies are almost over, and the next movie hints at new pokemon, hence a 5th gen game is probably coming.
