Will we finally see some new Megas or just more boring gameplay footage for the 8th time?

>>57993798 (OP)
Boring mobile slop, boring esports slop, then boring gameplay footage and maybe a new mega.

>>57993798 (OP)
I feel like they kind of have to show at least a couple new megas at this point. Say what you will about Game Freak, but they know how to market their games if nothing else. It's just a matter of time before we see SOMETHING new.
It'll definitely be at the end of the announcement though.

>>57993798 (OP)
I'm starting to think the reason they've revealed so little is because the game has very little new content, avoiding spoiling too much and giving the consumer the illusion of many new things to see, when it can easily be summarized as 10-15 new forms, 4 new Pokémon, a couple of recycled NPCs, 4 large generic locations, and a couple of secret areas with nothing to explore. $69.99 please.

>>57993798 (OP)
With how the social media team has been pushing BW shit lately as well as the special double set that's coming, I'm really worried that Game Freak or more realistically ILCA is gonna be remaking BW. I mean, why else would they be pushing Gen 5 nostalgia so hard and why else would they announce a Pokemon Presents for the end of July in May? It just makes no sense to announce it so far out unless they had something big up their sleeve and I'm worried it'll be yet another butchered remake like ORAS, LGPE, and BDSP were. I just think they're gonna find even more corners to cut to take the franchise to new low yet again. Game Freak has shown they were completely incapable of handling the past 2 jumps in hardware, and with another one looming it just sucks knowing that we're likely gonna be sinking even lower. They just don't care anymore and it really shows.

>>57994279
expect nothing and then come out of it with people disappointed the game doesn't have a feature that has Hilda pop out of the screen and give a blowjob.

More garbage slop and ugly mega designs nobody asked

According to Moot, Mega Dragonite will be revealed in it. Maybe Mega Malamar since it will be a story trailer with Emma.

>>57993798 (OP)
I'm honestly more interested in news about pic related.

>>57994340
Pure incoherent schizobabble

>>57994279
Wow, it took you that long to cop on? I knew it the instant Game Freak revealed whos were making BDSP while they worked on L: A. (Japan adores Sinnoh, so for Game Freak to pass off on a remake to make Sinnoh's birth was a statement). Coupled with the project pitch for what became L: A stating they weren't making a remake this time, but one may get made just cements it. Any future remakes will be made by a pet studio, while Game Freak work on new games constantly (and about fucking time).

>>57994703
I'll urge you to reread my post. Never once did I say or even imply that I was expecting GF to handle the remake. The post isn't about being upset over outside studios, it's the fact a remake is looking likely at all. I don't want them to make a shitty butchered remake like the last 4 they've made.
>I'm worried GF or more realistically ILCA
I even stated outright that it was a more realistic expectation for an outside studio to handle a BW remake. You are an illiterate retard with the reading comprehension skills of a fucking cane toad.

>>57994610
Why? They already said they'll be cutting corners on that too. Hardly a battle sim if even it gets dexit

Wow, it's almost as if hoennbab bastards enshrined the meme of remakes by screaming for one when Game Freak were done (Masuda saying they had no plans for it, until they saw kids screaming for one, to get equal treatment to the Pokémania-era kids), then time passed and they STILL continued to shit out pointless remakes, only first by allowing an oldfag to take a crop of newbies aside to make one, then by contracting whos to shit another out, despite Game Freak deliberately choosing to not make one themselves. Sorry you're fucking retarded, but ORAS and BDSP had already told the world that was going to happen (I got memed on for believing a Gen 4 remake would happen in Gen 8 in 2019/2020 because faggot manchildren ignore the reality they established). If you spent the last 15 years in a coma, you have an excuse. Otherwise, you're just another dense little bastard FINALLY realising how Game Freak dupe kids into giving them money for retreads. Not my problem (You) chose to live in ignorance, despite release history and sales reception pointing to a different outcome.

>more incoherent schizobabble

>>57996627
>if i ignore the point, i can claim it's unrelated
The point of my posts were to call you out for being a mong retard who didn't understand as soon as ORAS got announced and sold 14m, everyone involved with the brand would CONTINUE to shit out remakes for easy money (including retreading Kanto again for the alphas). BDSP was always going to happen, because ORAS became a thing, understand? the only difference is Game Freak decided to not waste their lives making any more of them, but also very much wanting the profits off one (hence the whos to do that, followed up by establishing Pokémon Works as a collaboration with them to continue to shit out titles) while also making something new and original for the first time in 23 years. Lurk more, 'else fuck off to discord with the rest the snowflake bastards who need a safespace. But if you're gonna speak and show how fucking thick you've been for the last 11 years, handle the fact you may get laughed at for being a simple cunt.

It will be more boring shit. At this rate, pokemon violet might be the last pokemon game I buy. I miss the days when trailers spoiled everything like in sun and moon. Everyone is so damned focused on new megas while I just want to know which regular pokemon are returning and if TM's will be reusable or crappy like on BDSP and scarlet and violet.

>>57996655
Again, NOTHING you said is at all related to any of my posts. I never said anything about a bad BW remake being unexpected or anything of the sort. You're literally making shit up in your head to try and make the irrelevant point you're trying to force make sense in this conversation. All I said was that I'm worried a BW remake is happening and that it's gonna be just as butchered as ORAS, LGPE, and BDSP. You're trying to call me retarded while you're literally arguing with yourself. Keep going, it's funny watching your mental illness unravel itself.

>>57993798 (OP)

We're probably gonna see new megas and the gameplay footage will be of the Switch 2 version.

>>57996760
>I miss the days when trailers spoiled everything
I don't. One of the better marketing decisions they made in recent years was cutting that out.

>>57996906
Except the part where I pointed out you were either a dense cunt or a VERY young individual to not understand that remakes would continue regardless after they shat out ORAS for autistic hoennbabas when you shared your toilet epiphany as to the future of mid-Gen releases. That's your generation's problem in microcosm - can't take responsibility for your actions in life.

>>57996760
>he bought gen 9 slop
The signs have been there for over a decade now that you shouldn't buy any of GFs bullshit. At this point in the game you've only yourself to blame.

>>57997345

It's a PvP battle sim lad. Best you're getting is 3v3 singles or VGC doubles. They've also confirmed rentals, so "freely editing stats" seems unlikely (they're still not data to Game Freak, even if your autistic arse has boiled them down to DPS metrics), along with Home (thus all compatible games) being favoured, making it less likely build-a-battler will be added for ayutistic povvos when they shut down showdown.
>>57997194

Anon, you're too optimistic. Either there'd be no new spin off or the spin off is more mobileslop gachaslop.

“know how to market their games”

the last few marketing cycles since sword and shield felt like doo doo

>>57997392
…At least there’s a chance to be a singleplayer mode, I suppose.

Me personally I just hope they overhaul some of the animations, I’d like to see how they remastered delphox’s idle animations

Do we have any credible leaks out there to discuses? at this rate I can barely believetrhe mega leaks are real especially with how Zeraora mega turned out false I just want something to talk about on this board filled with threads of people wanting to plap pokegirls or pokemon or shit posts and schizo threads

>>57997646
>at this rate I can barely believetrhe mega leaks are real especially with how Zeraora mega turned out false
Then you believe the leaks. It wasn't false, the leakers said that GF changed their mind and deleted it.

>>57997656
You are so lucky I have to go to work right ow, otherwise I'd smash you and rape you til you loved me for that stupidity. I'll be back in 10 hours you gaslighting motherfucker.

>why else would they be pushing Gen 5 nostalgia so hard and why else would they announce a Pokemon Presents for the end of July in May?
People said the same thing about Johto in the 2024 presents. In fact, the Presents was basically Johto stuff followed by more Johto stuff until you had a Kalos game announcement in the very end without context.

>>57997345
You won't get either of those.

>>57997665
Mega Zygarde and Mega Zeraora both came from the Freakleak in a document about the now on-going anime. This year, leakers came out and said there would be 27 megas, then they corrected themselves and said that Zeraora wouldn't be in and there would be 26 megas instead. That's the whole story. If you believe Mega Zeraora is false, then you believe the leakers.

How would you feel if the whole presentation was dedicated to Legos and Let's Go Johto?

>>57997684
You shouldn’t believe the leakers after the feraligatr fiasco

>>57998053

Reusable TMs are never coming back. Disposable TMs you have to grind for = player engagement

Literally no idea why anyone plays any of those, I honestly think its just NPC's in the matrix.

>>57998058
The Feraligatr image exposed the piggybacking frauds, not the actual source of the leaks

>>57993841
I am starting to think the game doesn't actually exist.

>>57998254
>(Lycanroc, Drifbloom, and Wailord)
This is the first time I've ever heard any of those names thrown out there.

Wait a minute, do we even know if the roster for this game is only going to go up to pokemon that existed by the time kalos came out?

>>57998452
>do we even know if the roster for this game is only going to go up to pokemon that existed by the time kalos came out?
Leakers say that there'll be Megas for Pokémon post-Gen 6 but, so far, only Gen 6 and prior Pokémon have appeared in the trailers and stuff. I honestly don't believe they're going to bring Pokémon from newer generations into this one. They already picked two Johto starters instead bringing one from Alola or Galar to make the starters, why they're going to bother bring newer stuff then?

>>57998607
(Note that this image is speculative, there's no confirmation all Megas are going to be in and a lot of people doubt it)

>>57994279
Unova's not getting shit yet, buddy, Pokemon's big ol' 30th anniversary is next year which means Kanto's back in the limelight alongside or after Gen 10 itself (another monumental celebration in the franchise) which will ALSO be full of Kanto pandering.
MAYBE in Gen 11, but absolutely fucking not in Gen 10 outside of a Legends game.

>>57998607
Mega Zeraora from the GF leak already confirms the game has Pokemon past gen 6 (and even if you entertain the silly idea it was cut, it still shows they don't intend to have that restriction).

Not appearing in trailers doesn't mean much either, apart from starters I don't recall LA showing any post gen 4 Pokemon pre-release unless it was tied to a newly revealed form/evo. It would make it too obvious that they're getting special treatment.

>>57993841
from a business perspective the incentives are very strong to divide the mainline pokemon games into multiplayer titles that streamline and centralize the esports aspect of the games (which has become huge in the last decade) and smaller, shorter, self contained single player games that can be released more frequently and sold at full price.

if you look at it from the publisher's perspective GF has shown they just really can't handle developing big all-in-one generational releases on the schedules assigned to them for whatever fucking reason, both SwSh and SV were development nightmares and really fucking embarrassing in terms of graphics and technical jank (for a Japanese company this public debacle is especially emotionally charged). having these smaller and more experimental games will give the company more breathing room in between generations, increase revenue, and allows the devs to experiment with technical designs on smaller scales before throwing them into the mainline titles - GF are pretty clearly tired of making the old hallway and textbox type of games.

>>57998819
>post gen 4 Pokemon
>not tied to a newly revealed form/evo
Sylveon is the singular Pokémon that fits these two categories. That's natural since it's the only cross evolution between DP and PLA. Asking for it to appear specifically would be too much.
>Mega Zeraora
Even if it were to appear, it would be in a super-limited way since it's a Mythical. It doesn't really speak about having Drampa or Falinks living in Kalos streets. It's basically the same situation as Meltan and Melmetal in LGPE, they cut everything outside Kanto except these two.

However, there's a key difference between LA and ZA. LA had Oshawott and Rowlet revealed from the very beginning while they had the choice to use two Johto starters instead bringing one from Alola. Whatever went in GF mind when deciding that isn't really my concern but you knew that LA would have new generation Pokémon the beginning while it's still up to doubt in ZA.

>>57998849
None of that bullshit matters anon. It WOULD if Pokémon was attempting to target solely teens and adults, as the manchildren infesting the place are jiffy-quick to tell the world, the games suck when compared to games targeting them. But the franchise as a whole much less the games DOESN'T target teens and adults, they end up as bonus sales by proxy (due to either just growing out of the target demographic but not yet "snotty faggot teenager" to fully reject it or adults who accepted the series boundaries and intents and still buy in to play it anyway). Thing targets kids, whole franchise is set up to market itself directly at them and every three years adjust for a fresh set of 7 year olds growing into the thing. And "from a publisher's perspective" Nintendo don't give a fuck (there's still glitches galore in BotW/TotK you know. Shamefur dispray from first party). The sales of the consoles alongside Pokémon's game sales more than makes up for the manchild internet's opinion on the highest grossing multimedia franchise in the world. Ad as we all know, Game Freak utterly ignore self-same manchild internet when it comes to the nitty-gritty of making their games, even if they'll make the same crowd a game (as that earns both they and Nintendo lots of money regardless of what they ultimately think of it "coughthebattlefrontierprojecthasstartedcough*).
The problem is you're treating it like every other western 16+ game dev studios and not actual kid focused game devs. And I can safely say Pokémon's stuff is more vital and vivid than every other studio playing in the age bracket's is, including Disney due to wanting to do a full-cast crossover.

>>57998686
If you think Gen 10 is happening anytime before 2026 you've got shit for brains. A butchered remake by ILCA to supplement the release of ZA just like how BDSP released close to LA isn't out of the question at all.

>>57998686
BW remakes are most likely happening in 2028, given 15m shithead kids and faggot adults bought BDSP, never mind the endless manchild fuckers who screamed for a DP remake in the first place and remakes generally happen first Gen on a new console.
>>57999276
And if you think THAT, you're the one with shit for brains. If they had another game for this winter's launch windows, they'd have announced it Pokémon day this year, because Gen 10's reveal is next February. I don't doubt ILCA will do the BW remake (odds are they launch Champions next year, leaving them two years as usual to get DBVW knocked out for winter '28) vbut it's not happening this Gen or in Gen 11. We all know they operate contrary to manchild fuckers' wishes.

>>57999641
champions might be this year along side PLZA because having another year of VGC on SV would be ass
