Why didn't we get a Gen 3 remake in Gen 5?

Gen 3 remade Gen 1, Gen 4 remade Gen 2, and Gen 6 remade Gen 3. Why didn't Gen 5 remake Gen 3?
>>
because it didn't
>>
Because Nintendo wanted Gamefreak to hurry up and make a 3DS Pokemon game. I doubt Gen VII will have a remake either.
>>
>>25974885
Landorus's jewel is white

Red jewel=vermillion bird
Blue jewel=azure dragon
White jewel=white tiger

After hearing of the massive success BW's story had, GameFreak realised they could get far more cashdollars by making a cheap sequel to that game's story than putting in so much money for a whole new game. But when XY's story did only meh, they realised they couldn't do that sequel thing for Gen6, so they made the remakes instead.

...Or for a more realistic answer: because there wasn't enough of a difference between Gen3 and Gen5. The graphics hadn't changed much, the games could be played on the same console, and the Pokémon from Gen3 were still transferable to the newest one - all of which couldn't be said about Gen2 during DPPt. Gen6 came around, and not only did it put it back some more years so that Gen3 was more nostalgic, but the properly 3D graphics put much more of a difference between it and Gen3.
>>
Because gen v was intermediary rushed shit
>>
BW2 has hints it was originally going to be a Hoenn remake but plans change. Something to do with DS about to die and wanting to get Gen 5 finished up quickly.

>2012 - ORAS DS
>2013 - Grey or BW2 DS
>2014 - XY 3DS
Could have played out, but the 3DS really needed that Pokemon game in 2013.

I think the remake would have been way better on the gen 5 engine desu

gen 5 remade gen 5

Why the fuck isn't there a 4th kami to represent the turtle?

>but the 3DS really needed that Pokemon game in 2013.
Actually by that point the 3DS was beginning to enter profitable territories in 2013 despite the slow start and by the time of the Pokemon the 3DS had covered itself.
Pokemon just made sure it wouldn't drop back.
>>
because they realized what an abomination gen 5 turned out to be, and decided to pull the gen 3 remakes to gen 6

why wouldn't they make the bird vermillion and the tiger white then? where is your god now?

Uh huh. Nice one anon, but I was 22. You seem to be confused about the Gen. It was Gen 6 that sucked.

So you're saying gen 4 remakes confirmed?
>>
>>25975081
The Turtle, the Snake around the Turtle, and the Dragon of the Center will be another legendary trio.

3 genies weren't enough, we need SIX
>>
Because they already did remakes on that platform and it wouldn't have been much different.

Nobody ever said it was gonna be one remake per gen. It's more likely one remake per platform.

Pokon XY only got released in late November, it might as well have been December.

Because we get a remake of a gen in the gen that is twice it's number. Kanto (g1) in GSC,
HGSS(g2) in g4, Hoenn(g3) in g6, etc. We won't see gen 4 remakes till gen 8.

ORAS was November 21st

Except FRLG was G3.
GSC is Kanto sequel.

Remakes are 2 consoles later.

I would have taken it over BW2, because I remember getting mad that now their 3rd iteration of a release had to have 2 copies.

Still expecting for an XX/XY before a Z.

So when are they gonna start remaking the remakes?

What if that's what Sun and Moon is?

Well for some people, six generations of Starter Patterns =/= a clear pattern, so shows how well /vp/ knows patterns.
>>
>>25978153
the only pattern there's been is all the water starters being amphibious

and please don't mention the zodiac
it's such a stretch it's not even funny anymore
a fox is not a dog, and a weasel is not a rat
>>
>>25978178

>GameFreak just happened to make 2 things close to Zodiacs and 4 Zodiac animals over six generations.

Yeah... Let's all believe that's a coincidence.
>>
>>25978196
>Uh oh, looks like nothing on the zodiac was used for a gen 6 fire starter. Oh wait, foxes are RELATED to dogs. So that TOTALLY COUNTS. Haha, phew. I almost had to admit I was wrong on the internet.

The difference between a Fox and a Dog are basically two features.

We already have a dragon kami, its called thundurus.

BW2 came out in 2012 when the DS was on its last legs. Plus, XY development was already wrapping up and Nintendo needed a system seller real quick because 3DS wasn't selling particulary well back then.

Because Gen5 was on the same console as Gen4

Seems they remake games with one console between the original release
>GB had RBGY, GBC nothing, GBA had remakes
>GBC had Crystal, GBA nothing, DS had remakes
>GBA had RSE, DS nothing, 3DS had remakes

Which means that since Sun/Moon is on 3DS, there won't be DPPt remakes this gen either
>>
>>25974885

because gen 5 was shit and people wanted it to end immediately.

Because you were able to play rse on the DS but not on the 3ds.
Every gen needs to be playable on the current console.

Time between first and second remakes: 1 gen
Time between second and third remakes: 2 gens

It's either counting up by one or doubling. D/P will be remade in gen 9 or 10.
>>
>>25979213
No they release one pair of remakes per console, so the next remakes will come after the first gen 7 games come out on the NX.

Leave out Battle Frontier because FUCK YOU

Why does Charmander count as a Dragon? It's a lizard/salamander, not a dragon. Charizard is a dragon, sure, but not Charmander.

If you want to say that Charmander is a baby dragon, then you can't include Cyndaquil as a rat, as that would make Cyndaquil a baby badger (Typhlosion), not a rat.
>>
>>25979084
>They're called Pocket MONSTERS
Yet the MONSTER egg group doesn't contain all of them
>Nidoqueen has no egg group
I guess its a legendary pokemon or a babby
>Typhlosion is Feild group
Wow, didn't know Inferno Badgers were fucking pastures, should I be planting seeds in my Typhlosion?

Face it, egg groups aren't canon, and Xzard was just to make whiny manchildren shut the fuck up about their shitty Pokebro being the butt of every joke
>>
Pretty sure it was because they really needed to release XY on 3DS which probably explains why Gen V went by so quickly.
>>
>>25979744
Charmander is in the dragon egg group moron.
>>
>>25979237
>someone notices a pattern
>assumes it's intentional and will always hold

Here's a fucking thought: maybe there is no fucking pattern and Game Freak just does whatever they feel is right at the time and you're just autistic.
>>
>>25979774
And Torchic is in the Field egg group rather than the Flying one with most of the birds. Guess it's not a chicken, then.
>>
>>25975094
2013 was a really good year for the 3DS
>>
>>25979791
>Blaziken can fly now
>Rayquaza is a bird
>>
BW2 felt so much like RSE, if they made a remake for them during that Gen it would have been totally stupid.

And I think that was planned since Gen 4 because you could get the Hoenn starters in HG/SS.
>>
>>25979791

>chickens fly

go to bed anon
>>
>>25979791
But Flying includes non-birds like Rayquaza, Latias, Butterfree, and Noctowl
>>
>>25979801
>Blaziken can fly now
It can learn Brave Bird, which by the description of the move requires it to be able to fly. The point is that game mechanics shit like movelists or egg groups are meaningless and arbitrary.
>>25979817
They can, though anon. Not very well, but they can.
>>25979847
>Rayquaza
>Latis
>Butterfree
>Flying egg group

>Noctowl
Learn to reading comprehension. I never said the Flying Egg Group was only birds, I said that most bird pokemon were in it.
>>
By the time we were looking at Castelia City on shitty Pokemon Smash streams they had the 3DS development kits from Nintendo. They wouldn't have time for both Grey and RSEmakes and gave us BW2.
>>
>>25974885
Remakes are console reliant.
GBA: FRLG
DS: HGSS
3DS: ORAS
Next system: DP
>>
Because they remake games when there is an in between system between the original release and the latest title.
>>
>>25979867
>Brave Bird
>"The user tucks in its wings and charges from a low altitude. The user also takes serious damage."
>bring arms in close
>run because you are the bird that never skipped leg day
It still works

>most bird Pokemon were in it
Except Aromatisse and the Empoleon, Golduck, and Blaziken lines
9 birds aren't flying type because they don't fucking fly
47 of the 92 Flying types are birds
That leaves 45 non-birds
There's no exclusivity
9 out of 56 Pokemon birds have no flying type
Stop trying to make a causation between the two because there isn't, only a correlation
