One problem with that..we haven't had a 3rd Version since Platinum in Gen IV...in 2009..literally 10 years ago.
Gen V was Black & White and then direct sequels, Black 2 & White 2.
Gen VI was X & Y. That was all..aside from Gen III remakes
Gen VII was Sun & Moon, and then enhanced remakes, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon.
I'll never forget my friend going "like hell I'll buy black and white, one year from now they'll just release gray" and then a year later we all laughed at him
Silver being short for Sylvester is my headcanon now.

"Sylvester, I left for the glory of Team Ro-"

"It's SILVER now, dad. God."

"I went through this phase once too, son."
Giovanni doesn't like being reminded of the time he went as Giorno

Sometimes I kind of feel like the ages of fictional characters can sometimes be straight arbitrary.

Like, oh here's this character that literally looks like a 12 year old but don't worry! She's/He's canonically 18 so waifu/hubby up.

Why the **** do they do that? It's so stupid.

I remember the XY prerelease(especifically the E3 thing showing off trades and Talonflame) using some dumb names like Xavier so I don't consider any of that canon
Those were the names they used at first since they couldn't just call them X & Y probably..the names became Calem and Serena later on in later pre-release materials.
And that's fine, but Selene is used in merchandise..so it is her 'canon' name.

This is the official Pokémon Company store.
Since the name Elio started being used at the same time as Selene in pre-release material, it can be inferred that Nintendo sees that as his 'canon' name if they end up making merchandise of him or have him appear in the anime.

If only Gen 5 didn't already use Hilbert and Hilda...

I swear, they used the most European names on two American characters. What a waste
Where is B&W supposed to be located, anyway?

Bring me the Smash Ballot and prove this.

And even dare bring a fan poll and I'll smack you with Alucard so hard.
That last part doesn't make much sense, but in literally EVERY FAN POLL EVER, Banjo is high placing, which has to mean SOMETHING. Not to mention Phil Spencer's tweets. Now, developer tweets that state that they would "like" to see something happen normally don't mean anything, but this may be a special case, because it means that Phil Spencer is at least aware of the fan clamoring, but then again, it could just be PR talk. I just have a hunch that Banjo is coming, though I like both Banjo and Steve, so it would be a win regardless for me. Tbh, if neither are in we're all gonna look pretty stupid.

Japan: "Ah, a war hero, leader of an army and savior to the people, how about we make him... uhhh 17, yeah that sounds reasonable."

"Oh and the grizzled experienced old man who has seen a lot of the world and is now despondant and hopeless? Boy he'd sit well at the ripe old age of 31"

God I love these. Best female trainer ever.
She's so ****ing aggressive, it's great.
That reminds me, imagine if Sword and Shield were voice acted and they got the same studio/actors from the Xenoblade games to dub it?
An appropriate casting choice. Nintendo (or Gamefreak, whatever) should do more stuff like that, especially after BoTW.

Makes the hentai artists feel better about themselves.

Just like when they design a character that looks like a kid but pull the "they're actually an immortal, 1000-year-old god!" or some ****. Means people can lewd away and have that flimsy justification to feel like what they're doin' ain't disgusting.

So
Black really ended trapped in a ball and ****ed off while White was just crying on the ground?
Yeah, that's how it ended and I haven't read it past that AND IT'S BEEN EATING ME UP EVER SINCE

Look, I still refuse to call her anything but Moon. Actually, Luna is acceptable since I have a friend named that.

Sure don't mean he was the most requested as you specifically said.

Not to mention Phil Spencer's tweets. Now, developer tweets that state that they would "like" to see something happen normally don't mean anything, but this may be a special case, because it means that Phil Spencer is at least aware of the fan clamoring, but then again, it could just be PR talk.
It definitely is. Why wouldn't he? If it was Minecraft or Halo content asked, he would've said the same ****, I guarantee. He hasn't been given an opportunity to respond to that specific type of question though, and that leaves your theory in the dark because it can't be absolutely confirmed.

Do you think Phil Spencer is up in his office, demanding only Banjo when there are other applicable characters for certain legacy-themed whatevers?

As for it possibly being PR, Phil has brought up people thinking he's just saying PR stuff, so I think he'd legitimately like to see them in.

of course I'm sure he'd also like to see Steve/a Creeper in, I'm just sayin'. He also mentioned liking to see them in "the next game" during Smash 4 times.

Huh. Guess I should've played that one.

I heard all the Pokemon I knew already weren't in it and was like, "I'm out."
Then just play Black 2 and White 2

They brought previous gen Pokemon in that one, so you can enjoy the game, without resorting to only rip-offs of older Pokemon.

Though, fun fact... Only generation where Pikachu isn't obtainable, at all

You know, I gotta say, Grookey's design is slowly growing on me.

Might take a while for the final evolutions to turn up, first, but eh, you know what, no matter the result, I think I've decided who my Gen 8 starter is. :p

Ok, so I apparently made a typo of "like" with a K instead of an L and it got autocensored so can anyone explain what the **** does that mean

You can dislike something without putting down its fans, you know.

That's an incredibly bad racial slur, actually.

It's a slur for Jewish people.

Bruh, why do you hate Banjo?

But in all seriousness, Banjo is really just a hunch for me, not to mention the Duck Hunt thing. I'm not gonna rub it in anybody's face when if I'm right, and I won't whine if I'm wrong. After all, we all know that Just Cause Guy is the most likely DLC candidate.

A slur against jews.

Guess is not known in Latin America as it is used a short name for Enrique.

That's incredibly unfortunate.

And here I thought Richard had it rough.

I'd like to propose a toast to all the other stupid ****ers like myself who, while playing as Cloud, without a doubt, absolutely, definitively, HAVE to push the left or right taunt button when picking up an Assist Trophy or Pokeball. Congratulations, you're a rare ****ing breed.
