Final games of a gen usually have good post game. USUM should follow that. Gen 7 deserves to end big.

I agree, if they're gonna move the Pokémon main series to a the next console, then they should make it go out with a bang and give us an amazing post-game.

Isn't worlds this month? if so i think they gonna reveal lyncanroc dawn form and put a trailer of both dusk and dawn.

Yes. There should also likely be an English trailer for Dusk Form Lycanroc sometime soon.

I'm quite surprised we've not had an English announcement yet...perhaps Monday? I'm not sure if we even get announcements over the weekend.

I'm with you too. I bet the TPCi would wait for a new week to start first before the English trailer of Dusk Lycanroc should be revealed.

OH my fudging God! All this for a new freaking lycanroc form (wich I will use. I was originally planning on having lycanroc in my moon party). That's all we get. Kind of annoying don't you think.

On the subject of third games: I like to think that the third game is usually the canon version as it combines the two other games into one (minus Crystal wich I don't think did that). In emerald we had both teams. Both legendaries. And a slightly new plot to connect the two. Same with platinum (minus both teams as there is only one). Platinum introduced my favorite Pokemon character: looker (who we need more insight on his backstory. They keep teasing us with more of his backstory. Especially in S/M). So third versions are awesome.

There might be a morning Lycanroc, and it might be announced this month. I like Lycanroc, and another form would be good.

janejane6178 August 6th, 2017 1:47 PM

At this point I'm almost sure that they dont have any HUGE info to share with us

Unlikely. Ash's lycanroc is likely to evolve into dusk form making a dawn firm unlikely and just plain wierd. But you never know. Game freak loves to screw with us.

Well, maybe not all the time. Sometimes there are stuff we can easily expect.

Like when the aether foundation was evil. I just started laughing my @&$ off when we were right. I'm just imagining how the conversation would go.

Lusamine: I was secretly evil the whole time!

Me: no crap Sherlock.

Alexander18 August 8th, 2017 11:24 AM

Corocoro came and we know a bit more of Lycanroc. Still nothing else on the games. What are the odds of Lycanroc news being the only news for this month?

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 8th, 2017 8:34 PM

I'm hoping that GF will have some news on August 21st to coincide with the total eclipse over the U.S. xD

I'm pretty sure it won't be the only new info, though I am still surprised Dusk Form hasn't gotten an English trailer yet. But since we only just started news coverage and the fact during most pre-release periods we tended to get a few pieces of news a month, I'm sure that we shouldn't give up on this month yet.

I don't think they'd put random news on a minor event like that. I'm expecting the next news to come around World Championships time.

Foreigner55 August 9th, 2017 7:18 AM

I think this game isn't going to be that big. Its the shortest wait time between Pokemon games I've ever seen. If gen 7 goes out with a bang it would be much preferable if they did gen 4 remakes (I liked what they did with gen 3 remakes personally) however: it's possible game freak has started a pattern here. No remakes (gen 5), remakes (gen 6), no remakes (gen 7), remakes (gen 8 hopefully)

I am glad we did not get sinnoh remakes. ORAS is on the 3DS so it makes no sense to have another remake on same handheld. Also i don't think the fans deserve sinnoh remake if they are gonna constantly complain about everything GF does. Getting USUM instead is the better choice that i am glad GF made.

Lol, it's not a minor event, at least not here. The media here is hyping it up. There's even ads revolving around it.

But you're probably right about them not doing anything for it. Though Worlds does end on the 20th which is the day before. So we'll likely get some info around that time either way :). Worlds starts on the 18th for those wondering.
Iirc, they usually announce something at the start.

Alexander18 August 9th, 2017 4:05 PM

I don't really trust or rely on Worlds. Feels a bit off having pokemon news there for me. I tend to pay attention to official trailers and sites.

We've gotten news at the start of Worlds in the past. At least starting with XY we did.

pokestar1993 August 9th, 2017 8:20 PM

In 2013 we got the reveal of Mega Kangaskhan, in 2014 we got Mega Slowbro, 2015 was when we got the trailer for the Wii U port of Pokkén Tournament and we got Crabrawler revealed in 2016. This is how it's been for the recent Worlds. There has been speculation for news on the 18th which would coincide with Worlds and there is going to be some more mystery merchandise that will be unveiled on the 31st.

Hikamaru August 9th, 2017 11:19 PM

As Pokestar said, we have had news dropping at World Championships events in past years, such as the Mega Evolutions for Kangaskhan, Audino and Slowbro, and last year had Crabrawler revealed. It's pretty certain that based on this pattern that we should be getting new info around then.

I'm not saying I hate the idea of USUM I'm just saying that I'm tired of sinnoh confirmed memes. Now that I think about it: game freak should skip sinnoh remakes altogether too mess with us. Straight on to gen 5 remakes. Nah I'm just kidding. Although that would make a great April fools prank.

Just give us something and make it dry over this drought of no news

We only just had that Lycanroc form getting revealed a week ago, so be patient. We'll be sure to get more news since the World Championships are soon and there's usually a piece of news to expect around that time.
