Since a new generation typically makes up for the iniquities of the former, I think we'll probably see 120-200 new monsters, some Gen VI and Gen IV mega-evolutions, and new resistances for the Ice type, which has withered into obscurity with the addition of Fairy types.

Maybe if they make a sound type they'll make Ice resistant to it in reference to Snowpoint lacking music...Also next Gen we should get a Dragon Eeveelution.
Btw just like Dark was the only post Gen I type that didn't get a gym in it's gen of introduction, Steel is the only one of the three to not have gotten an eeveelution... |
Of the types that Eevee hasn't had an evolution for, I think that Flying would be the next type I could see them going with. And it's not likely that they'll have a Dark-type Gym if they're just gonna give a bunch of Dark-types to the villainous team like they always do.
And a Sound-type? Just imagine that bouncing off icy walls of a cave... |

Fairy-type in a sense, is no different than the fanmade Light-type. Sound-type reminded me of the fangame Pokémon Brown version as well, hahaha. XD Sound-type in a sense is like Normal or even Flying-type, given how Flying-type moves are mostly associated with air. As everyone knows noises and sounds travel through air.
I agree with OrAs, there should be a Dragon-type Eevee. Then again, as the other says, GF is less likely making a creating a Dragon Eeveelution, at least not for Gen VII. So far Eeveelutions make their debut on a even numbered generation. A Flying-type and/or even Bug-type are more forseeable in the future generations. As for Dark-type Gyms, some people stated that Dark in the Japanese versions is 'aku-typu' which can translate as evil type (or other semilar meanings). So people claimed that is why, there isn't any Dark-type Gyms. < I don't buy this though, if that's the case E4 shouldn't include Dark-type in the first place then. :/ A Dark type Gym should be at least placed as the 5th Gym or beyond, given how most Dark-type are strong on the offensive side. Makes me wonder the standards for Gyms and E4. *cough* Glacia and Candice's Ice types, Flint and his Fire-types, Volkner and his Electrics. Oh and Lenora, why Watchog? Just why? *cough* |

Or... Are they perhaps leaning towards the Japanese fans? Since most of the stuff began there. Just look how they are favoring the fans there, Arceus, Keldeo, Victini, etc are all distributed on their Gen VI games. Just my two cents. Quote:
You have to wonder of they are trolling the fans, or if the Japanese community actually represents the whole fandom and have a different opinion to the global, thus eventually affecting the development. P.S. Not hating on Japan/Japanese, I love them. Hopefully my words didn't give a wrong impression. |
Quote:
Who knows, GF may reset the timeline again so I rather they introduce a new type that has existed for awhile, rather than for the discovery be unexplained like Dark's... Also using your logic a Dragon Eeveelution (Dragon vs Fairy fits the pattern of like Grass vs Ice, Psychic vs Dark (more so this one), Fire vs Water Vs Electric) didn't happen this Gen then like the Sound type it shouldn't happen any time soon. |

Outside of GF being a Japanese company, themselves, I think one reason for this is the fact that Pokémania never really died in Japan like it did in the West. Even when the games were at their lowest point in popularity overseas (Gen 3), they were still hugely popular among kids in Japan, and even pre/teens who played the games didn't face the same social stigma as their Western counterparts. At that time, it literally made financial sense to cater to Japan over everyone else. Nowadays, though, the franchise has seen a mini-resurgence in the West, while it has started to (slightly) taper off in Japan, so we'll see if that has any impact on GF's decisions in the coming years. Quote:
Although, it's a possibility that they want Dragon to mostly be the home of large, powerful (and also highly marketable) "badass" Pokémon like Garchomp, Haxorus, Hydreigon, and the Box Legendaries, which an Eeveelution obviously wouldn't fit, but how do you explain the likes of Dragalge and Goodra, then? (The latter of whom I would've happily exchanged for a Dragon Eeveelution. It's past time for another type to be a Pseudo-Legend.) |
Quote:
C'mon, there's Altaria and even Dragonite from the very first Generation. -3- That reason is not acceptable for the lack of Dragon-type Eeveelution. |

Also as for FRLG over FRWB being chosen according to them it was because Fire and Water seems more war like compared to Fire and Leaf. I actually think I get them now after writing in a story I'm working on about how while water nurtures wood (grass), wood feeds fire, but water simply destroys fire, gaining nothing from it at all. Of course that may just be an excuse like no liking the BF anymore so why not cut it off from ORAS, yet still hint at it to iritate fans... |

Anyways on topic I'll like to see Torkoal get the Roselia treatment in Gen VII. I hope GF realizes that (some) fans still want some normal evos to old mons. |
Quote:
Of course, Eviolite was partially created in the first place because of the negative reaction many of Gen 4's new evos got. A lot of people wanted a reason to continue using Rhydon over Rhyperior or Electabuzz over Electivire, and Eviolite gave them one. Megas also seem to be a reaction to that as well, buffing underpowered Pokémon to more "competitive" levels without being a permanent form change (unlike the Gen 4 evos). |
There weren't many of the Generation IV evolutions that I didn't like; some of them changed their stats in ways that made them a lot different - Electabuzz for one got an evolution that made it orient more towards the Attack, and Rhydon got one with an ability that lowers super-effective damage. Some of them didn't change much, but I think they were satisfactory.

i would like a fossil legendary Pokemon trio

The only things I'm more or less sure about:
- The Strange Souvenir will play a part. - Mega Evolution is here to stay. Sorry, Mega Evolution haters, but they'll NEVER leave the other starters with nothing. - It will be compatible with the Pokémon Bank. |
Quote:
i was thinking that a common bird, fish, and land type Pokemon such as like a ratata, pidgey, magikarp can hold it by chance. almost the level of a shiny. having high chance of running away too. once the fossil is obtained, it can be revived and goes for a battle in order to obtain it. but now that i think about it, i would like a insect legendary. |
^ Me too, we've seen legendary Pokémon of all sorts of types but nothing based off an insect to my recollection. Volcarona doesn't really count but it's one quite a few people call legendary, even though it isn't.
As for Mega Evolution like Cerberus said, it's not likely they're going to abandon that either. |
Quote:
Speaking about removing stuff Sugimori mentioned how they wanted Gen VII to be simpiler. Some are taking it to mean that they may remove some features (over simply just making the Pokemon have less stuff added to them like say spikes on Mega Garchomp). Now if he did mean that they will go to more simpiler mechanics I wonder what they will take away. Mega Evolution is quite simple (though I wish it was more elaborate than just press the button on the bottom of the screen...) so I don't think they will remove it. Maybe they will retire some useless moves like Splash, as well as retire moves that are the same type, use the same stat, and have the same effects as another. |
