The week after bleeds into September, which would logically be the first place a September Direct could drop.


My biggest question is what comes next week? Nintendo tends to do "One big drop a week" around August through September.
Probably nothing, but I could be wrong. If it is something, it may not be something Direct or a Presents thing related.

Legends Arceus is lookin' real neat, not gonna lie! I'm still not sold on the Diamond and Pearl remakes yet, though. Dunno why, but the art style really isn't vibin' with me.
I just want you to know that if you don’t give your soul to me when you die so I can use it as a power source we ain’t homies.

I only hang with dudes who live like Basculegion.

I could see a Direct happening in September, more so with the way Nintendo is going really strong on Twitter with the Dread marketing.

I could see them pulling out a Direct and have Dread stuff on It similar to how we had that one September Direct before the release of DQXI.

And neither It does on Quakecon
Heh heh! I think we should end it there with a Partners Showcase.

Come to think of it, I think there may be a Sakurai Presents showing the last character separate from an Nintendo Direct, like the Final Smash Presentation for the last, previous Smash game. Fighter 11 is the last of Ultimate's DLC characters, right?

Yeah, it's gonna be the last character (thankfully)

So, can you transfer these new Pokemon into mainline titles, or will they be forever stuck in Legends? Dunno if they said anything irt that, but it'd feel kinda bad to give new evolutions to Pokemon that seriously needed them, but not be able to use them in mainline games.

Monkey Ball.
Wait, what? I maybe expected more cartoony characters like Opa-Opa but definitely not Kiryu. Damn, that's awesome.

Here's hoping for more crossover characters, really would love to see the Hornet, Segata or maybe Sakura.

I dunno about sw/sh, but I’m positive they’ll be allowed in gen 9 and onwards.

…Assuming a member of their evolutionary line is present.

Banana Blitz was kinda trash, even back when I played it when I was like, four years old.

I was just about To ask the same. I wonder if we could actually send them to BDSP.

Home is made by the team behind the remakes and the presents confirmed home support for both titles.

It could be like the time capsule that let you transfer from Gen 1 to Gen 2. I also wouldn’t be too surprised if Sword andShield was updated this year with the remaining Pokémon and new forms, considering the sinnoh dex makes up a majority of the missing Pokémon.

Yeah, BDSP was my main question.


You'd imagine they would be since, they're both "Gen 4", and Sinnoh's whole sthick back then, and seemingly now as well, is to give new forms to old 'Mons.

I watched the Pokemon Presents today.

Was blown away by the new trailer for Legends.

Was less pleased still seeing people ******** about N64 trees in comment sections.

It showed in the Direct Legends would have Home compatibility.
