I hope a new mystery dungeon is announced tomorrow. Gamexplain suggested a Pokémon warriors game. That would be pretty hype but probably not happening

So any predictions for the upcoming Pokemon direct?

I kind of expect them to explain what makes those stadium things different from gyms. For new pokemon reveals I expect the regional rat/bird/bugs first and the new cover legends at the start or end of the presentation.

I'm hoping for stage 2 starters and a new Eeveelution to get shown off to, but I wouldn't be surprised of they're saved for later.

If they have a new gimmick like z-moves or mega evolution, I expect it to get teased but not explained.

Due to the timing of the direct, I really don't expect much from pokemon at E3. Maybe that's when they'll show the new Eevee.

My money is on the following going off patterns from SM
  • Box Legends
  • Stuff regarding the player character
  • Friendly NPCs
  • Early mons
  • Release date
Honestly, my hope is that a good chunk of time isn't wasted on a history lesson about Pokemon and the people making it because, IMHO, it just wastes time and chances are the people tuning in to watch a Pokemon direct already know plenty of stuff about Pokemon whether they're newcomers who played Let's go and the mobile game, veterans who grew up back when pokemon wasn't 3D (or didn't even have color), or people who gleam their info from Pokemon focused forums and YouTube videos

Eeveelution ideas?

This would be my favorite.

But really, I'd love a Steel, Poison, or Dragon type.

10 minutes of “The Pokémon series has changed since the original bla bla bla-“

3 minutes of actual info

2 minutes of “Thanks for watching, goodbye!”

I'm near the end of Persona 5 and somehow, I believe I can max out all my confidants with the 11 days I have left to manage. The only obstacle in the way is just the Hanged Man confidant because I have not maxed out my guts yet and I do not know how many points I have left until its maxed. If I somehow achieve maximizing all my confidants in my first playthrough, it will easily become one of the greatest personal achievements I have done in a video game ever.

If we're getting a new Eevee, I want either, Flying, Dragon or Fighting. Give the Fighting Eevee a Tatsu that it does with its tail.

So why would Nintendo have two directs for Super Mario Maker and Pokemon right before E3?
Did they do it to save time for even bigger surprises?

Looking at the last few Mario games it’s looking more like the year of Toadette

Damn, you're right.

Waluigi still not in a platformer.
Daisy forever only in a phone game.
Syrup gone for 10 years...again.
E. Gadd can't even get into Mario Kart.
Wart who?

Yet Toadette's been playable in 2 platformers in a row. Peach and Rosalina got jebaited.

I couldn’t max out all the confidants cause I was too busy loving Makoto by abusing and leveling up charm...new game plus I’ll fix that

Wario's right there. He has a whole ass platformer series, a brother, a rival and the cast of Wario Ware to pull from.
