in an announcement with surprisingly little fanfare, Gamefreak has confirmed that they are in fact working on a core pokemon RPG for the nintendo switch, which will likely take over a year to actually be ready. IGN's story Let's hear some of the community's thoughts on this! |

I legitimately consider the video games to be inferior to PTU (I can't speak for PTA), so this isn't a big deal for me. I do look forward to shamelessly stealing any good ideas Gamefreak comes up with to implement them into future campaigns, though.

I'm curious if this will be part of Gen Seven-point-Five, or the start of Generation Eight. Traditionally, Nintendo puts out a brand-new generation for brand-new hardware. Not showing any details on it now would make sense, since they want to push Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon for this holiday - talking about any new features or Pokemon in Gen 8 would confuse the matter for the Ultra games, which is a definite no-no. So yeah. I'm gonna lay my chips down on this being a brand-new Gen with brand-new Pokemon and mechanics. |

There was a "leak" around the beginning of the year that they were making Pokemon Star for Switch. That was never proven either way as far as I'm aware, but this could be that. I wouldn't expect it since Ultra Sun/Moon were announced, so my guess is that it's probably gen8. But it still could be Star. |

I am hyped for the Pokemon game on the switch... I bought the switch anticipating a Pokemon game (as well as to try Zelda for the first time). now not that i am expecting the new Pokemon game on the switch to be the following i would love to see these features 1: Open World like Zelda:BOTW 2: Multi Save (Based on how the switch works in general, that is basically already happening) 3: Amazing story in a quest like format similar to Zelda:BOTW quest system What would you like to see (Event if you know it wont happen, keeping in mind that these are not guaranteed to happen and to keep hype in check) |

No story at all, just Monster Hunter with Druddigons and Feraligatrs. |

I'm hoping that since they're making the transition to a full-on console we'll get a more mature storyline, or at least a more robust one. |
