This list is supposed to contain trademarked Mega-names since July 2012. If this is legit, Ruby and Sapphire remakes/sequels are certainly coming, period.
The hacker who posted this image of the list is legitimate, check out his Twitter images and you'll know what I mean.

[EDIT] Why the hell is Swampert not on the list? You better make one GF.

That list sounds pretty suspect to me. Heck, Jynx is suspect if only because of the (unfortunate) history behind it. (That is, a court case came about because of its black-skin appearance, despite it being based on a fashion in Japan. Which is why Jynx looks as it does now). We know about mega [email protected] too, so it not being mentioned there is just plain off.


As for trademarks - there's a lot of games on the list of being trademarks by the Pokemon company, and they won't all be used. And it's silly to expect so-and-so just from recent history. A lot of people said the references in BW meant an RSE remake last gen. So much for that! A lot of people said the third Sinnoh game had to be Opal (overwhelmingly so). When it was leaked that Pokemon Platinum would come out, a lot of people cried fake based on that title alone.

I would prefer this over remakes. Even though LG is my favorite game, Hoenn will forever be my favorite region. Going along with the story it only seems logical that R/S/E would have a sequel instead. I can't honestly think of anything else to do with the story, however, so it would be interesting to see this story develop even further.

I think I actually would prefer a sequel, now that I've thought about it more. I'm too attached to May and Brendan to want them to be replaced with other protagonists.

In my headcanon May is champion and Brendan is a researcher, though, because I prefer Brendan's in-game personality as a rival. The only problem is, what would the story be? There's nothing left to resolve.

I really hope your theory is true! Pokémon has come a long way since Gen 3, and remakes to Ruby and Sapphire would be vastly different from when they were first made.

I would love to see remakes for ruby & sapphire over a sequel myself, because I really don't see how a new storyline would make sense with how the storyline ended in the originals.

It would be most logical to use Emerald as the 'canon' story, since it involved both teams and legends and tied off the story for everyone involved. That being said, even though Maxie and Archie reformed, that's not stopping a Neo-Magma or Neo-Aqua from entering the fray, or it wouldn't even have to involve them. There are many devious ways someone could nefariously utilize the powers of Groudon, Kyogre or Rayquaza.

Given the fact that it will most likely be 2 different versions I think the storyline will be utilized off of which version it is based on. Though I would expect some sort of addition from emerald, like they did with the second gen remakes they added a deal from crystal(though it wasn't 100% like it was in the original crystal).

SCREW THE TIMELINE. I WANT REMAKES!

This is one reason I want remakes instead of sequels. How are they going to tell a different story using the Hoenn Legendaries again? Mega team Aqua and Mega team Magma try to awaken Mega Kyogre and Mega Groudon, and only Mega Rayquaza can stop them? I'm sure gamefreak could come up with something better than that but I'd still much prefer remakes. Also I think enough time has passed now to warrant remaking these games.

Somebody should make this a poll. I'm curious as to how many people would rather see remake and how many would like to see sequels.
