It is hard to say what we should expect from the next installment of Generation 6. It is even harder to distinguish between what it is likely to expect and what we want to expect. But enough philosophizing.
- I expect Pokemon Z, which would preserve the theme of X and Y representing the axes on the Cartesian plane, which represented the 3D nature of the games. However, most of us expected Pokemon Grey to succeed Black and White. Instead, we received sequels in the form of Black 2 and White 2.
- I expect people and places that were obscure or mysterious in X and Y to receive more clarification and greater significance in the third installment. I also expect new locations to explore, perhaps in southern Kalos, which is empty.
- I expect more post-game content.
- I expect Zygarde to receive a new form or a mega evolution. I would like Xerneas, Yveltal, and Zygarde to play a more direct and significant role in the story in the same way Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem did for Black, White, and Black 2/White 2, respectively.
- I expect more mega evolutions. Pokemon I would like to receive mega evolutions include Nidoqueen, Nidoking, Arcanine, Scyther, Dragonite, Crobat, Girafarig, Skarmory, Kingdra, Lugia, Altaria, Milotic, Luxray, Drifblim, Spiritomb, Togekiss, Porygon Z, Simisage, Simisear, Simipour, Galvantula, Haxorus, Braviary, Noivern, and all the generational starter Pokemon. I was not happy with some of the mega evolutions introduced in X and Y, including Mewtwo, Garchomp, and Blaziken, as if they needed mega evolutions.
