I'm pretty sure it will be a Kanto Remake .

Are we truely getting that Game Freak Console Pokémon RPG game they promised decades ago?

[Allwil13 754]

It does kind of seem like they'll be sending us back to Kanto. That region seems to get more attention than anything else in the video.

[The Transcendent Key 12,109]

I honestly hope that it is a new generation, because as awesome as the Kanto region is, the games set in Kanto have already been remade once, I don't see the point in remaking it twice. I've always seen that Game Freak follows one remake per generation, as they've done so for the Kanto, Johto and Hoenn games. If anything, I think the next remake on the list would have to be Sinnoh, ya know?

 

But honestly, I want this new Pokemon game to be a fully new experience, a new region with new Pokemon and a new story, with all the marvelous trappings of having a full fledged Pokemon RPG on the Switch! The dream console Pokemon game we've all waited for!

Please no Kanto.

PLEASE NO KANTO.

 

Kanto is overrated as hell. Seriously, what's so great about it?

Pretty sure it's Gen 8 and if not, I'm not buying a Gen 1 remake for my first Switch Pokemon.

The Pokemon fandom recently boggles the firetruck out of me

 

Pokemon fans: Hurrr Pokemon has been the same each game we want a true rpg(whatever that means).Also Pokemon fans:We want a Kanto remake(which is the exact same thing from 22 years ago even tho Kanto was visited for FOUR GENERATIONS IN A ROW)

 

You guys didn't have enough of Kanto through gen 1, Gen 2,FireRed and LeafGreen(which IS a Kanto remake) in Gen 3 and HG/SS in Gen 4?

 

 

And what do you mean exactly by "true" RPG.....cuz the series IS A FREAKIN JRPG SERIES.If you mean something like Kingdom Hearts,try to make it work with over 800+ creatures to program with their own unique moves

 

 

This is why I hate genwunners and why I hate how GameFreak's been pandering to them so much in Gen 7

 

For the love of God PLEASE NO KANTO REMAKE

 

We visited this region 4 firetrucking times already and it's more than enough

 

As for the video....that hints freaking nothing cuz it's one of many....MANY Pikachu promos GameFreak has done throughout the years

Please no Kanto.
PLEASE NO KANTO.

It's blatant nostalgia cuz the region nowadays is very basic and boring compared to Johto,Sinnoh and Unova

I wouldn't mind going back to Kanto, but I would prefer gen 8. 

 

And what do you mean exactly by "true" RPG.....cuz the series IS A FREAKIN JRPG SERIES.If you mean something like Kingdom Hearts,try to make it work with over 800+ creatures to program with their own unique moves

I think when people say they want a "true" RPG, they mean they want a game that includes all the regions and all the pokemon. They want this enormous adventure through nostalgia-land. Whenever I hear people talking about a potential pokemon "RPG", usually the first thing out of their mouths is that they want all the regions included in one colossal game. But it's true; pokemon is a JRPG series, so technically every generation is an RPG.

 

I do agree that Genwunners can be frustrating as hell. People who refuse to play anything past generation 1 and then constantly say that everything after that is pure garbage, even though they haven't even given it a chance, drive me nuts! If you don't want to play the later generations, fine, but don't dump on them if you haven't experienced them yourself.

I think the franchise is due a major gameplay update. As far as combat goes, I don't think it's something that can necessarily be pushed toward something else, but the turn based gameplay does need a slight upgrade. 

[KH4Real 749]

It's probably too early for gen 8. Look at the facts Pikachu all showing in the trailer.

The Kanto starters are stealing the show aswell.

 

If it's not the Kanto remake then it will be something completely new like Pokémon Colosseum.

I wouldn't mind Kanto if it's something like Gen 2....a post game region instead of having an entire game dedicated to it again

 

Genwunners are the worst cuz those are the same people who accuse the series of being the same yet they ask for the same thing from 22 years ago

The gameplay will be updated but they won't ditch the old system but rather refine it and add to it the same way gen 3 added abilities,Gen 4 added the physical/special split,gen 5 introduced hidden abilities and gen 6 introduced mega evolutions

 

So I expect an update similar to those.

Too early? We don't even know if this game is coming this year. Honestly it shouldn't. They should take their time on it, as recent games have been rather lackluster. Also I was aware that they confirmed it was Gen 8 they were working on. 

[keyslinger 307]

I'd take anything after Kanto. Personally Id love a Crystal or Black/White remake.

1/That Pikachu trailer is just a promo for the characters.....dozens like it were made in previous gens

 

and 2/How is it too early?the two year gap is nothing new cuz there was a 2 year gap between gen 5 and 6 and three between 6 and 7

 

The Kanto starters aren't really stealing any show cuz really only Charizard is getting more love when it comes to final evolutions

 

And 3/The President of the Pokemon Company himself confirmed in E3 last year that the Switch game will be a mainline Pokemon game not a spin-off like colosseum

 

And finally/Releasing the same old game as Pokemon's HD debut will be financial suicide as the backlash will cause the game to sell like garbage

 

If you want a kanto remake....there is FireRed and LeafGreen and Heartgold/SoulSilver for you

 

we're sick of Kanto cuz it's been revisited 4 times in a row throughout the series

 

I want a new generations I'm so sick of the gen 1 pandering and I don't want them to ditch the 700 Pokemon that came after just to pander to the freakin 151 originals for the milionth time in a row

Yeah every new generation will be announced around 3 years.

I'm not even sure if we will get a gen 8.

Well I was thinking a gen 1 remake with the same style like Zelda BotW.

We're getting Gen 8. This is reminding of all those people who think the new Smash is a port.

Ok this is asking for waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much

 

Especially for turn based RPG and a franchise WITH OVER 800 MONSTERS TO PROGRAM and no I'm not gonna take 151 originals again just to have the series be a Breath of the Wild clone rather than being it's own thing

 

WE.HAD.ENOUGH.OF.KANTO

 

How do you want the series to progress if you want them to keep visiting the same firetrucking region from 22 years ago over and over and over and over again.

 

And even if we assumed it'll be like Breath of the Wild,I don't want it to be in Kanto at all.

 

Kanto is a a very linear and small region to begin with and there are only so many ways you can explore Mt.Moon for the 300th time in a row

 

Not to mention,the next in line for remakes are the sinnoh games:Diamond,Pearl and Platinum so it's not fair to pander to Genwunners alone and leave Gen 4 fans in the dust

 

 

You got Kanto 4 times,it's time we get our favorite regions have the spotlight

[KH4Real 749]

We're getting Gen 8. This is reminding of all those people who think the new Smash is a port.

Perhaps gen 8 should be actually announced next year if it happens.

[Dio Brando 5,810]

It's already been announced LAST YEAR.Not a full announcement but it is announced and it's officially listed by Nintendo for a 2018 or later release

It wasn't announced they just only said that a new rpg was coming for the Switch.

I'm not saying that gen 8 is not possible.

They confirmed it as a a mainline entry in both E3 and later press releases

[Dustin Lübbers 933]

ah yes  this brings back memories of me and my friends hunting Pokemon in Pokemon go in the middle of the night

When they say a core RPG, they mean mainline. Core to the franchise is anything not spin-off or remaster/remake related.

Yay, so it's gonna be a new gen after all! Here's hoping it's good!
