What next?
When do you guys think GF will release new information? will they wait, or make it soon?
|
Probably the next CoroCoro. Unless the next CoroCoro is just "hey, these games were announced, stay tuned to the next issue for more information!".
|
I am probably expecting the next CoroCoro to share our first piece of official information, presumably expecting the starters, mascot legendaries and maybe the protagonist designs as well.
|
As long as we get a taste of the new pokemon, I'll be happy, even if it's just a silhouette of the starters. I'm also guessing they'll give a bit of a hint as to the region, whether it's a name or just some information on what culture it's based on.
|
I expect the primary source of information will be CoroCoro until E3...considering this is going to be a late 2016 release, Nintendo need to stagger information across at least six months, so I can't see any huge releases coming for at least another two months. Monthly Pokemon Directs for those of us who don't have access to CoroCoro would be lovely, but the chances of that happening are pretty slim, I think.
|
Well the games won't be released until presumable December of this year (assuming that's what "holidays 2016" refers to), so they have to keep interest in the games for ten months... They'll probably wait a bit before slowly introducing small bits of information as we get closer to the release.
|
As Meloetta said, it's mainly CoroCoro that will be dropping info, and likely expect more to be showcased at E3 as well. Probably a few new Pokemon might be shared at E3, since I know that was what happened with XY, revealing not just Fairy-type but some new 6th Gen Pokemon as well.
|
I think we'll get something at the very least in next coro-coro. It's probably just some screenshots without the next reveal. May Issue will probably when the news will start popping out.
|
Probably in April there'll be information about Volcanion/Magiana's new forms.
The next info about S/M will be in May/June E3 |
They'll show off new information through CoroCoro issues, the E3 conference, and that Sunday Pokemon game show.
|
Corocoro is a magazine then? I should check it out :D
|
We should get something within the next two weeks, or at least I hope it's more than a name reveal from corocoro...
Actually we should expect leaks by the end of next week as Sunday falls on the 13th and we usually get leaks around that time or earlier. |

Please note, these are all Tuesdays, which are typical video game release days, though Nintendo does not always have a typical release and have released on Fridays and Sundays before as well. So we have mid October to December. Basic news release is usually through CoroCoro so around the 10th to the 15th of every month we'll have to see what we get. Next issue should have as much as the Game titles, with maybe a chance at a new Pokemon or screenshot previews, though the latter isn't a promised guarantee. Following that, we should start to see new Pokemon, characters or concepts that are new to Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon start to show up. May CoroCoro (the one released in April) holds the better chance for new info IMO. |
Well considering Xy came out in October you are not that far away.

That said, we don't always get Pokemon info from it, and I wouldn't necessarily bank on getting it this month too. Still maybe up to 10 months left before the game comes out after all, so don't get too excited. We shall see though! The Pokemon TV show they do in Japan each week (idk if it airs 52 weeks a year though) would be another potential source of news. Beyond that they can always share news on the official website and/or via video releases (see XY mega info for example), but there's no given schedule so you can't really prepare for those releases of information. |
I really hope we get something in two weeks from corocoro. It strikes me as odd they didn't reveal anything when they were willing to show off so much in the debut trailer for X/Y.

I don't expect us to get much until May personally. Maybe some screenshots from CoroCoro, but May generally has been an open day for things in the past from what I can remember. It'll only be roughly five or so months away from the game then, so after then they can slowly pour out information. I do expect them to give us at least a little in the next month or so, in order for any of us not to lose interest (not that we will, but for it to remain at the forefront of our minds).
|
I'm thinking we'll see some new Pokémon next, perhaps the starters, the mascot legendaries, and maybe some concept art of the playable characters too. Corocoro seems like it'll be the most likely source of information, but maybe we'll get a trailer or some gameplay footage at some later time too.
|
To sum up what I think is going to be in the 2016 CoroCoro, according to X/Y's 2013, most likely this:
March: nothing (title only) April: Movie details May: Legendaries/starters June: New pokemon/Region Map July: Proffessor/Main Characters/New pokemon August: The new Mega evolution September: New pokemon/new bad team October: Starter's 2nd/ 3rd evolution November: Last Corocoro, new pokemon |
I mostly agree with Sopheria's prediction. I think the next CoroCoro will likely reveal the starters, mascot legendaries and maybe the protagonists. Then maybe the following months will reveal more new Pokemon, the professor, villain team and other notable new features.
|
It seems unlikely that we'd get a trailer for Sun & Moon in the upcoming direct...
but I suppose stranger things have happened. I wouldn't be holding my breath though. |
Quote:
...well, as long as I get a DQVII release date out of the direct I'll be happy with it. |
Quote:
March: Starters, some new mons (most likely the mascots), region name, maybe a map April: Regional Rodent, and bird if they're not amongst those included in March. May: Some random new Pokemon and map if it's not shown earlier. Some Megas June: New Volcanion forme, or more details on Magearna. A mega or two July: Even more details on Volcanion and Magearna. Perhaps a mention of Volcanion possibly unlocking Magearna's event. Starter's 2nd evolutions August: Evil team. Megas of the leaders September: starters 3rd evolutions October: Last Corocoro, summary. Maybe a few last minute megas, or a number of how many Pokemon they might be, like _+ instead of the actual number. |
