Tomorrow is either gonna be really cool or a massive disappointment.
So a Nintendo Direct I guess.

Yeah, this is probably either Z, or not what they're revealing tomorrow. I could definitely see this being Z with how Game Freak has been talking about third versions recently.

That's a fact for many years already.
I hope so, because fuck that.
I hate Kalos and I'd rather have Pokemon Z than lock another generation on the 3DS.
'Cool post-game' is what keeps the game alive to me, so yes, I would gladly replay X/Y if they had one.

So if Pokémon Z is real, will they change it so all Pokémon take 5 turns to charge up their attacks?

It certainly would be for me! I can wait a little longer for Gen 7.
Too many hints indeed. But they could bring the sequel concept even further than what they did with BW2. Like the south of Kalos is as big as the north, you first discover the south then the North, or east then west, west then east, with 50% of the champions renewed, same for the league, new heroes, bigger story, content and quests everywhere, a new Paris-like, then a small post-game region with 3 to 5 cities/islands/whatever. Maybe some new Pokémon but that would be weird since they need to push the Megas. I'd like to see a different set of starters too but that won't happen.
And I don't see how this would be unrelated to the reveal tomorrow. It's real.
I think that's the safe bet actually.
Yeah that's one thing that sticks out. We'll see. I just think it's odd that Kalos won't get another game. At least it seems that way lol.

You'd think but I feel as though a lot of people would be ultimately disappointing unless the shake-up is major. The post-game elements are always fun but many of us completed the Pokedex years ago.
Would Z be a better game than XY? Yes. Do I want them to have spent three years perfecting a game I have already bought? No. I would rather those years be spent making something new.
Platinum, Emerald and BW2 are all better than their originals but I was either young or hadn't properly played their original. Honestly, it's time for something new.
But would you prefer it?

Lewd.
I wouldn't really want this either. I want definitive third versions back. B/W2 should have been one single game.
Hopefully.
If it is X2/Y2 I'd like it if the Zygarde Core was our starter.
I would. Three games in a row with really bad post games would suck.

That and the fact that it won't be on NX
Man, that would suck so bad...which is why it'll probably happen

I don't know why people expect this game on NX so soon. They do realize Game Freak is still developing the series right?
You mean only one starter? That would break the pattern even more but that would be very interesting.

And boring
Yeah, that's what I mean.

I've almost never heard "zee" in my entire life outside of the intro to Dragon Ball Z. It really depends on where you live. I do agree that the ability to sell 2 versions would be the reason why they wouldn't use the letter though. Nintendo didn't care in 1998 when the Game Boy Color lacked the u in other English-speaking countries than America. It's just one more reason not to call it Pokemon Z is all.

Z to a new gen stuck on the 3DS? Yes, of fucking course.

Not necessarily, you could make it interesting in many ways.

For those thinking it could be Z split into 2, why would they announce a new pokemon beforehand?
Well who knows. Best to keep our expectations low.

Why would they announce Munchlax before Emerald and Ho-Oh before Yellow?

Maybe if the series had a different developer
A few pages back there was a discussion on the sun and moon dials in XY that were never explained along with the giant crystal in Anistar City. There's also thr two revealed Zygarde cores that recharges in the sun. I feel like I'm forgetting more too

That's speculation
NX is out this year, maybe we're getting our first official game announced for it
It could be...maybe.
It'd be great if it was, though. Just throw every Nintendo franchise at the wall for NX this holiday: Pokemon, Mario, Zelda, Smash.
They won't start developing on the engine when the NX launches (whatever the fuck that will be, and how the form it'll take will impact the shape of Pokémon games)

But Sinnoh is the best region and Hoenn is the worst.

I would be surprised if these didn't have new Pokémon in them, no matter what else.
I don't buy the Zygarde rumours, not least because Perfect Zygarde is still GROUND/Dragon.
If, at the end of the day, we've got a new pair of games, with new Pokémon and a new region... Well, that's a new generation, no matter how many connections it has to the last one.
