Sequels or Remakes?
Do you think USUM will be sequels like BW2 were, or Remakes, ala platinum?
Personally I feel It'll be a remake, as there hasn't been one since Platinum, and gamefreak have been micing things up recently |
Way too soon to be a remake IMO and since they announced that there will be new Pokemon and we saw new formes, I am highly inclined to believe these are sequels.
|
I think they're most likely direct sequels, similar to Black 2 & White 2. A reason I can tell is because of the appearance of what appears to be new player characters, and as we know B/W and B2/W2 had different sets of player characters, so I could see this being the case if US/UM are a direct sequel.
|
Sequels going by how the trailer went. Looks like there are some fusions going on following the Ultra Beast events from Sun & Moon.

I'm pretty sure he said it's an alternate story? Given the wormholes, maybe it's an alternate reality? Hmm... I'm excited to find out =D
|
I'm not sure, in the Direct they said it's gonna be an alternative story so it could be either.

I also think it is a remake/enhanced version of Sun and Moon, possibly the version that the Riddler was looking at when he was leaking stuff. |
It's gotta be a sequel. Remember that mysterious Pokémon at the end of Sun and Moon? Lunala's and Solgaleo's appearances in the video seem to resemble that, and all I can just simply think of now is Black Kyurem and White Kyurem from B2W2.

I think we might get an Emerald scenario. I mean, Emerald was an alternate RS whose events happened slightly later in its (alternate) timeline than those that RS did. |
Alternate story could mean anything... but It's most likely just Like Emerald or Platinum... Hope we get more story content after the main campaign finishes tho.
|
To me alternate storyline as was mentioned in the Direct implies neither a direct sequel nor a remake - but a different turn of events in the same situation/context/games. So things turning slightly differently at the start for example which completely change the outcome or what ends up happening plot-wise (e.g. more UB involvement as seems to be the case)

I wouldn't really consider it a remake in the typical sense....but it does sound like it might be based in an alternate reality of Alola. Since they said it had an alternate story, which would be a weird choice of words for a sequel.
Alternate realities are already canon though. So I guess something like this was only a matter of time. |
It's neither a remake or a sequel. Remember that Pokemon is set in a multiverse? We're basically playing another universe of Alola, and it ties in with the Ultra Beasts, and this excites me so much.
|
I wonder if maybe they wanted to give us time to get used to the Ultra Beasts before they did anything huge with them.
|
Well each game has an Alternate Universe in it. Remember to get our own Nebby, we go to an alternative world. This could be the world this game takes place in.

Pretty convinced they'll be sequels. Sure, they like to mix things up and surprise us, but they also have been competing a lot with Yokai watch and such stuff lately, which make sequels afaik? It is cool when things progress in the pokémon world, when characters grow and change.

I HOPE sequels.

An alternative storyline sounds like something new entirely. Might be something like Platinum compared to Diamond and Pearl but with a few more twists and turns.
|
From the way masuda talks about the games, it seem to be like the old 3rd versions. Same world , alternative story. The character shown is even the same character, so no way it's a sequel. Just like the old 3rd versions, new clothes, some small modifications and that's probably it.

Hopefully the story includes the Ultra beasts more. I wonder if these could be Solgaleo and Lunala reverting back to their Ultra beast form... Maybe Necrozma was created from something they casted away to adapt to the Pokeworld. |
