Based on the background of the presentation and timing, next week will most likely be Let’s Go Johto and DP remakes are next year’s game.

I mean, I'd be fine if it's gorillaboom since I actually like heavies and monkes, but if that's what we get after waiting all this time I'm gonna be a little dissapointed.

Literally how does a remake of an N64 game manage to look better than a mainline game?
Bamco is how

Hot take: the Grass/Fire/Water trilogy is a stupid request as Pokemon trainer already did it and the only way to make a pokemon fighter good is to get as far away from tired starter and biped pokemon as possible.

Eh, Gen 8 is inevitable for FP7 regardless.
Not really. Not even Geno is a lock but I still think he has the best chances out of any character right now.

Don't you mean why a remake of a spin off looks better than a new mainline game? N64 had mainline games too it wasn't just filler.

Since this game was made by NAMCO, they should take over the core games now.

I mean if the entire premise of a game is just to take snap shots of pokemon doing random animations I'd imagine you'd want it to look decent.

FP7 is not going to be Pokemon Gen 8 related. The recent spirit event that occurred last year has spirits one would want for the Gen 8 rep, so it's extremely unlikely. That, and Nintendo has to the end of next week to get the Smash reveals done. Waiting til the end of June would be a poor decision on their part

I'm really starting to get sick of the overreactions of people believing the entire video game world revolves around Smash. Overwatch accessory announced? Tracer is a lock! Literally any third-party game announced? Oh they're probably in Smash! Pokemon has another presentation next week? Damn it's a lock for FP7!!!

There are so many reasons why this is unlikely. If anything, another Pokemon would really only make sense as a "bonus" type character, and they likely wouldn't be announced in a Pokemon company direct. I have a hard time believing they're giving us another Pokemon stage, character, and music that'd come with a pack. Not to mention this would've been planned since last summer/fall at the latest, so why would the Team Rocket mii costume come with Banjo?

Think about things before overreacting

I'll be honest, the Team Rocket Mii costume I would kind of say was more random than Goemon.

This. Not everything means it’s going to be Smash.

Yeah, but Nintendo made poor decisions before, and has hold off on things before. I can imagine happening with this, too, not trying to be pessimistic, by the way.

Its not a remake its a sequel.

And man everyone loves to assume the worst. They said this pokemon announcment is a new project, most likely gen 4 remake for next year. I doubt a smash character for pokemon is going to pop at the same time.

Remember, this was e3 season, and how they originally planned to reveal smash fighters and planned them has changed. I doubt we are getting pokemon rep revealed at e3 time. Its most likely a 3rd party rep.

Stop the gloom party

You know what's definitely not related to Smash so far?

The month of June.

Because there was no obnoxious time limit to make it.

That's it. Of the four mainline games(the two Let's Go and SwSh), only SwSh could not be delayed and had a very strict date. This forced them to reuse old models(which it sucks they lied about the model reusage, but that's the only bad thing they did) to barely get it out in time.

SwSh needed a delay to look better. No ifs, ands, or buts.

I can't believe people are expecting a smash reveal during the Pokemon direct thing next week.



THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED

Everyone always expects smash during game specific directs, but it has literally never happened once. Smash has never been shown outside a smash centric or general direct, or a special event like E3 or the Game Awards. When will people learn that this is not how it works?

Also the next Pokemon presents is over "one more big title" they're going to announce, so it's likely gen 4 remakes, meaning if we got a smash reveal it would have to relate to that somehow, which seems unlikely at best.

Plus, Lucario already represents Gen 4

Whoever said that the smash reveal would be DURING the Pokemon Presentation? The Smash Direct could be sandwiched between today and the next presentation and still feature a Pokemon rep. (Not saying that's what I want, but just saying)

We need a Gen 3 rep damnit! Gen 3 nor Gen 5 has any reps in the roster.

I just found out Nintendo announced a new Pokemon Snap. Thats pretty cool. I just kinda wanna point out that I do believe this announcement is another instance of Nintendo listening to the fans, as tons of people have wanted a new Pokemon Snap for years, and tons of people thought it would never happen and it started to become a meme in recent years, until it finally happened. Maybe we can get a certain little star puppet in Smash through the power of fan demand as well. ;)

Y’all need to chill they could drop this ****** any time now. Pokémon Directs won’t affect that.

It’s like max of 2 weeks now.

I'm... Confused.
These pokemons news are all fine and dandy , but why do you want to delay your big project next week ? Or , to be precise , one of the last opportunity for the Smash reveal A.K.A. the hype black hole ?
I know that Smash and Pokemon are handled by two different companies , but I'm sure that they must be aware of something.

Not saying "Kung Fu Panda looking dude for Smash" , rather... Why make a second Pokemon present when you already had all the spotlight ? Were they scared of that big project overshadowing Pokemon Snap , the DLCs and "Learn how to brush your damn teeths with Pikachu jimmy , I swear to god" ?
Or maybe they're stretching it because they know they can... Or they don't care about Smash , and Nintendo planned since the beginning to reveal the ARMS fighter later into June.

... Or they shadow drop the Smash direct tomorrow , and it's only ARMS.

I'm just confused at this decision. I hope we get the ARMS reveal soon enough.

It's what I've been saying in the ARMS thread. They're only holding off on the Smash stuff this week so they don't cannibalize sales.

“There are so many reasons on why ARMS is unlikely, Springman is already an AT“.

Also, me thinking Gen 8 is a lock for FP7 has nothing to do with the presentations. Given our current track right now, its inevitable. Might as well prepare for it now to save the salt for when it actually happens.
