[Jawmuncher]

stI'll waiting for that m rated Pokemon game

 

[Mendax]

Finally, Pokemon dreck!

looool!!!

 

[Ansatz]

5 minutes is enough to show a trailer. Kimishima doesn't fuck around

Even the Direct knows Blue is the better version.

#HistoryHasBeenMade

Please > Understand

 

[MrSaturn99]

YESSSS

 

[brainchild]

Wow, TWO Direct threads today and it finally happened!

Bring it on!

...

I just realized that I'm still very saddened by the loss of one of my favorite people in the world :'(

 

[OmegaSmash]

Pokemon XY&Z
Actual confirmation on the final roster for Pokken
Pokemon GO teaser

That's all I got.

 

[Shigby]

This will be to announce that Pokemon Z has been cancelled and are instead releasing Pokemon Delta Diamond and Pi Pearl for a 2018 release. Please Understand.

 

[BGBW]

It's just going to be the return of the Pokérap but with every single Pokémon!

That'll last about five minutes.

Gotta gotta gotta catch 'em all. Gotta catch 'em all. POKÉMON!

 

[DXB-KNIGHT]

Pokemon : Geodude
Pokemon : Zubat

 

[Wiseblade]

Whaa? I need to start prepping my body, I wasn't ready for this.

Also, when are we next expecting a full Nintendo Direct? Surely there'll be one before the end of April, right?

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Japan: 12AM

Hmmm.

 

[BY2K]

Let's go Z!

Wait 5 minutes? What?

 

[nubbe]

 

[HawthorneKitty]

5mn

 

[BGBW]

Pokémon Zee version and Pokémon Zed version

 

[Efejota]

Better than watching a japanese program until late at night just for a silhouette or something.

I expected this to be the first one to use the new format but given the length I don't think so.
I hope someone does the no-spoiler link thing for late viewers.

 

[javac]

I bet that they'll start off and use R/G/B/Y Virtual Console releases as a segue, started here and 20 years later this is where we're at. Can't wait for this Dreck, overdue.

 

[Sandfox]

They're not announcing a new Pokemon game if this is only 5mins long guys.

The ORAS announcement was 30 seconds long with a 40 second teaser released three days later IIRC.

 

[Memory]

Crap, going to be at work. Maybe I'll take a late lunch and watch this.

 

[openrob]

Pokémon GO
Pokkén
Pokémon Z
Detective Pikachu game

 

[Chase17]

Watch it be a five minute trailer fire the VC release.
So excited to see the announcement. Expecting Z but am curious if there will be the anniversary element mentioned in the list the other day.

 

[DrunkShogun]

Pokemon snap. It's the only logical choice.

 

[yoonshik]

My first Direct here on gaf : )

Excited.

 

[Styles]

ugh, I need a new mainline game.

 

[Forkball]

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

I just posted earlier today that a Nintendo Direct had to come soon, largely because we know nothing about what other Pokemon things are coming out this year beyond Pokken.

RIDE THE RAINBOW

 

[Kouriozan]

Yeah, it'll be longer than the previous Pokémon Direct if you remove the series recap.

 

[FZZ]

:|

 

[DragonKnight]

BOOM

Edit: Five mins? FIZZ

 

[Shuggananas]

Pokémon mega
Now with 150 more mega evolutions wooo

 

[Diprosalic]

Probably just a small Pokken announcement and a happy 20th year goodies thing.
that's it.

 

[gosox333]

For reference, the X/Y reveal portion of the 2013 direct was roughly 5 minutes long. Probably even less.

And really, what are they going to do with 5 minutes when going over new info for the games we already know about? Seems like they'd need longer for that.

 

[Boss Doggie]

There we go.

Wait just Five Mins?!

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

Hype fading...

Plus at 12AM I'll be drinkin lol

Hope it's not just Dekachu or Pokken.

 

[Rinさとり]

Better be a new mainline game with NEW Pokemon.

Capturing new Pokemon is half the fun of those games

 

[Crayolan]

It's Z.

I'm cautiously hyped.

 

[MrSaturn99]

Hmm, I may or may not have work when it airs...

I can't even laugh.

 

[HandsomeCharles]

Is it just me, or does it seem as though the time of this direct isn't really "convenient" for any of the listed timezones?

 

[Mediking]

Lol nothing new will be announced

 

[Stupid Sexy Flanders]

C'monnn Detective "Danny Devito" Pikachu!

 

[Zombine]

Pokemon Brown & Purple inbound

 

[Boss Doggie]

Z

 

[StreetsAhead]

Is it just me, or does it seem as though the time of this direct isn't really "convenient" for any of the listed timezones?

They've lined it up to match the start of 'Pokemon Day' in Japan is why.

2AM for me, though, or as you say in Japanese 'niji'

 

[Scrawnton]

Where are you getting the 5 minute number at? I can't see it on the announcements or twitch page.

 

[Dark_castle]

Pokemon Z. The new legendary for it is

 

[Sandfox]

For reference, the X/Y reveal portion of the 2013 direct was roughly 5 minutes long. Probably even less.

And really, what are they going to do with 5 minutes when going over new info for the games we already know about? Seems like they'd need longer for that.

I'm just expecting an announcement and anything else will be a bonus.

Is it just me, or does it seem as though the time of this direct isn't really "convenient" for any of the listed timezones?

It seems like they really just wanted to do at at midnight for Japan.

 

[StreetsAhead]

Lol nothing new will be announced

Yes, they routinely do these sorts of things to announce nothing new.

 

[GinoFelino]

Gif of dude getting kicked in the crotch

 

[iFirez]

Wants:
Z Announcement
More Pokken Roster announcements
Mew for VC Games confirmation/clarity

Reality:
3min video on VC Releases
1min video on Pokken
1min of to camera talking

 

[Nibel]

This will be Pokémon Z, no doubt. What I'm interested in to see is if this is going to be 3DS only or if they gon tease this to be on "another, new Nintendo platform" as well
