you think that sun&moon sales will become bigger after pkmn go?
I honestly wonder if pokemon games can be great again...
>>27188103
I guess not... people fell into nostalgia trap and nothing more, I don't believe 20 more millions will purchase the games and 3ds... people liked old mons for a reason of the design...
>>27188103
No.
People downloaded pokemon go because it's free.
If anything it'll convince stockholders to whine until Nintendo makes more shitty mobile knock offs taking advantage of people's obsessive tendencies for that sweet stock increase.
>>27188371
you are aware they may put into sumo some GO codes or shit?
How long until we see our first Sun and Moon mega?

Alright, thanks.
>D/P/Pt are DS games, still compatible with current generation hardware.

So stop posting about it. You're getting another FR/LG remake for GenVII to cater to gofags and drive sales for the company.
>Remake
>Not sequel
>>27187091
What would come of a sequel?

>D/P/Pt are DS games, still compatible with current generation hardware.
That matters why? You could play Red and Blue on a GBA, but those suckers still got remade for the system.
>ORAS made it a point to include all of the Sinnoh legendaries with version exclusives and easy access.
They also happened to include Unova legendaries, and Game Freak has said they'd like to return to Unova at some point, that's not really a good argument.
>Sinnoh had the worst starters, the most underused additions to the Pokedex, a bland and forgettable setting, and pandered with new evolutions to Pokemon nobody cared about.
Nothing but sheer raw opinion. DP has quite a few fans to back it up, and there's much they can do to spice up the region and story. Looking at ORAS, there's no way they're going to make it a carbon copy of the original.
>Sun and Moon have a "Diamond Head" volcano, and "Pearl Harbor" shipping yard (two obvious Hawaii references, but also a Gen4 one). That's as close as you're getting.

>Pokemon Go is a massive success, tapping into nostalgia, and will prompt a nostalgic remake to cater to those fans.
What does that have to do with anything? PokeGo was just Game Freak's answer to the rise of the beast that is the mobile gaming industry. There's a lot of nostalgia pandering to be had with a DP remake, now that folks who played DP as kids are becoming or are already adults. Me being one of them, ohoho.
>Red/Blue and remakes are the only games not yet released on the current handheld system.
Why not both? That'd be pretty cool. Why are you so against a DP remake, dude? It'd be the coolest shit, and there's already so much demand for it, it's bound to happen eventually.
ITT: pokemon that you have caught in GO
pic related for me after 30 minutes
Only had phone on hand. But having no luck with fire types.
>>27187738
Had the same problem for a while but got lucky on a nice high CP magmar
I've been playing for about 3 hours now. Got to level 6 at least.
Will we see a new Pokemon tonight after the first moviegoers get online?
When/what time will it come out? Cause I thought it comes out tomorrow... Also according to a leak we will get Synchro Mega Volcanion on the 17th so maybe we will get that in the movie too
Didn't that only happen on old gens?

There's no such thing as a perfect pokemon ga-

lol dude, just lol.
You forgot to add a 2 there.
May we take a moment to discuss how Pokeballs function? Not in a scientific way, but in a physical and aesthetic way. I remember in the anime, the balls used to be smaller when not used and stored in a bag, or on the trainers belt. I have never seen that mentioned in the games. Is that still a thing in the anime? Is it game canon at all?
I miss the physical "hardware" aspect of the series. You need a tent, a bike, MRE's, pokeballs, potions, gotta save space. The first season of the show, and the first game had a real "monster survival" feel to...

Babby balls
I've also never read the manga, but I have run across a number of images where the top of the ball is a clear red and the monster can be seen inside, albeit shrunken. Is this common in the manga?
>What are some of your favorite Pokeballs?
I like the ones with extra utility, like Dusk Balls and Net Balls. Apricorn balls are cool but the number of pokemon each gives you an advantage over is really restricted. As for aesthetics, I confess that I'm more likely to want to match the pokemon to the ball than to have a favorite ball in particular. I recently caught the Articuno in my X file with a Dive ball, which I think looks great with it.
As far as game canon goes, I don't think there's anything to indicate exactly...

Btw I'm a cyborg cause I have titanium implants in my legs from old injuries.
What is this, babby's first attempt at greentext or an rp?
>>27186094
I think... the first one? Or could it be bait? I just can't tell anymore man.
Is gamefreak forcing every S/M pokémon into being fairy type? I swear there's a stupid big disproportion of fairy types announced with the rest.
I guess that's what happens when you introduce a new type 15 years into your series.
I think it's good, hopefully now well have more good fairy types like pikaboo. Adding more variety and less just cute ones. I feel like a way better step would be a lot more fairy moves.
>>27186001
There's only 4 so far. Almost all of the new pokémon announced have had new type combinations, and Fairy hasn't been paired with many other types.
Less than Electric. :D

I've seen lots of people complain about Pokemon GO. It's not that bad, people are out exercising and Pokemon has become even more popular. Hell, even my brother who hasn't played in years is back into the series and is playing through Platinum. Why are some people opposed to more people enjoying Pokemon?
>>27185879
Because I foolishly had my hopes raised that Niantic would be competent and not change the battle system.
Seriously, when POKEMON isn't casual enough for the general populace, something is wrong.
>>27185879
Because a lot of people here are secretly hipsters who don't want Pokemon to become mainstream again
>>27185879
>Why are some people opposed to more people enjoying Pokemon?
because people got used to Pokemon not being a hugely popular thing and now they hate "normies" playing it because they can't feel like a super unique hipster by playing it now
