Eurogamer got freaking Americo'd.

How does that make you feel Membero Americo?

 

[Busaiku]

The third Pokemon edition will be called Equinox. Or Eclipse.

There will be no third version.

 

[AzureFlame]

We going Middle East now?

 

[Sapientas]

Seems pretty nice. I'm happy they left Gen 6 already.
Being on the 3DS might seem bad but it's an awesome platform and I'm sure it will be the highlight of the system.

 

[JoeM86]

I stand by my belief that this is just another Generation VI game.

Note: The above is speculation and not indicative of insider knowledge

 

[EnVy_CaLiBeR]

Gen VI for shortest lasting gen?

Well, The XY gen was a bit disappointing especially with how easy it was. The cruise control generation.

 

[notaskwid]

Pls die 3ds

 

[Inferno313]

"The sun is still out but the moon is shining big and bright! The birds are tweeting too lol"

NEW LEGENDARY BIRDS CONFIRMED

 

[DrROBschiz]

So can anyone recap why Gen 6 was bad?

I lost interest as soon as i saw mega evolutions

 

[Admiral Woofington]

I'm curious when they'll run out of cool words to use and start resorting to

Pokemon New York Pizza
Pokemon Better Pizza

 

[linkandzelda]

I stand by my belief that this is just another Generation VI game.

Yeah I think it is more likely to be Gen 6 too. I'd say 65/35 atm.

 

[Xaero Gravity]

I'm letting it go but what you've essentially done is what alotta YouTubers do with their titles on their videos for clicks.

I envy your life if this is the sort of shit you have to face that's worth crying over.

 

[Busaiku]

Isn't that redundant.

only good pizza is italian style

Literally worst post on NeoGAF. You should be ashamed.

 

[BY2K]

VG24/7 GOT AMERICO'D TOO!

 

[Aaronrules380]

You answered the question yourself

Megas are great though

 

[RopeSnake]

Pokémon Sun will make Cherrim the ultimate Pokémon.

Clefairy, Jigglypuff, Skitty, Nidorans, Munna, Litwick, Misdreavus, Duskull and Lunatone exclusive to Moon

Sunkern, Oddish, Helioptile, Petilil, Cottonee, Flabebe, Ralts, Snorunt, Tynamo and Solrock exclusive to Sun

omg

/speculationmodeoff

 

[woodland]

Wow, you know how people can be so conformist when they paying more attention to possible Mega forms instead to actual new mechanics.

If this is as bland as X&Y and the Hoenn remakes, I'll pass.

Mega's are boring as fuck. Would much rather have actual mechanic changes. After playing some great hacks this week there's so much they could do that they don't.

 

[bomblord1]

VG24/7 GOT AMERICO'D TOO!

Sorry what?

 

[McDougles]

Eurogamer and VG247 just got Ninlendo'd.

What a sad state of affairs.

 

[Boss Doggie]

I mean, it's not like they had equal levels before.

Seriously, diamond is more precious than pearl

 

[Gaardus]

I'm okay with this if better means St. Louis style.

 

[Shuggananas]

Megas are great though

they're uninspired, edgy as fuck, and hardcore pandering
They're the worst and we had half a generation because of them

 

[21XX]

After being completely obsessed with Red/Blue as a kid and having played every mainline game after those to varying degrees, I'm pretty burned out on Pokemon.

If these are NX games though (which I highly doubt), then I'd probably be interested just because of the shiny new hardware.

 

[Busaiku]

Clefairy, Jigglypuff, Skitty, Nidorans, Munna, Litwick, Misdreavus, Duskull and Lunatone exclusive to Moon

Sunkern, Oddish, Helioptile, Petilil, Cottonee, Flabebe, Ralts, Snorunt, Tynamo and Solrock exclusive to Sun

omg

/speculationmodeoff

Sun would destroy Moon.

 

[Starwolf_UK]

Wait it's PoKéMoN? I'vE bEEn tyPiNG it wRoNg all my liFé

Ah going through the other trademarks registered by Nintendo in Europe include some rather odd things that might make people nostalgic for Wide Boy and Web Boy rumors...if such things did happen.

 

[KarasuEXE]

Beyond the regular obvious Sun and Moon titles, the logos have a spacey look to them. Do you think we'll finally be travelling to space in this one?

B-But we did in Delta Episode...

 

[Kinsei]

The region was bogged down by nostalgia pandering.

Here's a Kanto starter!

The first forest is a recreation of Viridian Forest

Here's a Lucario!

Mega evolutions instead of more new Pokemon

I could go on. Kalos didn't really feel like it's own thing and it was really disappointing. I hope that if this is Gen 7 they go the B/W route and only include new Pokemon until the postgame.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Swwweeetttt.

 

[DrROBschiz]

You answered the question yourself

What they should do is focus on making each pokemon unique and viable. Make legendaries statistically comparable to evolved normals but with quirky traits/abilities

Instead lets make everything legendary.



They need to add a nuzlocke mode....

 

[balladofwindfishes]

I stand by my belief that this is just another Generation VI game.

Note: The above is speculation and not indicative of insider knowledge

I think it'll be Gen VI.5, with a few new Pokemon. Not sure if it'll be Kalos or maybe even Kanto. Or a new region.

 

[Mediking]

You are whining over having the subtitle of a game, ahem, "spoiled" a whopping 24 hours from the official reveal.

You are whining, and you are whining over nothing.

I'm letting it go. You guys think the thread title is okay and I don't. I checked Nibel's twitter and I'm pretty sure he was referring to me in one of his posts. Man, I'm "dense" for not liking the thread title! I don't give a *amn anymore.

 

[spyroflame0487]

So realistically, another Gen 6 game would relate to XY somehow right? Perhaps Yveltal and Xerneas are tied to Sun and Moon rather than...life and death?

Give em a Mega and we should be all set.

 

[KAL2006]

Not being an NX title is a major fail. Yes it will sell better for 3DS due to the amount of 3DS owners. But if they wanted to jump start the new gen and take a hit on software sales to ensure their next system is a success that would be more beneficial for Nintendo.

 

[wiibomb]

Eurogamer and VG247 just got Ninlendo'd.

What a sad state of affairs.

oh fuck...

the VG journalism these days..

they just take any twitter account and makes news out of it

 

[DomsPlaying]

That Eurogamer source.. Epic investigative gaming journalism!

General rant: This is a problem with 24/7/365 media cycle, and trying to be the first to the punch on news. Outlets jump the gun and get exposed for their bogus sources or garbage material.

 

[SunEatsMoon]

Well guys, according to my username Pokemon: Sun will be the superior version.

I'm just going to get both.

 

[Off-Kilter]

Also can we have multiple saves Game Freak?

Pretty please?

 

[skynidas]

for posterity

 

[Graphics Horse]

What about if Pokemon Z is still coming out to the 3DS (since even the anime is now XYZ) and Pokemon Sun and Moon are Wii U/NX titles?

w...wii u title?
But yeah, possible. Just weird with nx not formally announced yet.

 

[RopeSnake]

NEW LEGENDARY BIRDS CONFIRMED

Mega Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres confirmed

Mega Cresselia and Darkrai confirmed

 

[ffdgh]

Oh wonder will we get one or two new eevee evolutions...Ignoring Espeon and Umbreon.

they never had Pokemon as an initial game for a system tho

 

[ar4757]

Post game - "what is that again?"
Exp Share pls ban
"Everyone hated how good Black and White's story was so let's make X and Y's suck"
Lag with 3D
No post game
Too easy

Although there were a bunch of improvements competitive wise so that's good

 

[JoeM86]

I think it'll be Gen VI.5, with a few new Pokemon. Not sure if it'll be Kalos or maybe even Kanto. Or a new region.

I'm not thinking new Pokémon, but new Megas foir sure.

Maybe go to Kalos after the new region?

Mega evolutions were probably the best part.

 

[friskykillface]

Team rocket and God Giovanni will be brought back and he will take over the moon and sun and control the universe B^)

 

[michaeltraps]

Excited for Mega Mewtwo/Charizard Sol and Mega Mewtwo/Charizard Luna.

So if this winds up being true, when the hell is going on with Zygarde forms that were never officially released for X/Y?

 

[BossDarkseid]

Make challenge mode unlockable from the start. So basically not unlockable, just an option. Also have Drayano balance it.
