After pokemon sun and moon

[princess garghelina]

Ya pokemon sun and moon is going to realise this november but which title is next after sun and moon. My guess a squel of FR and LG.

I don't think we'll get another remake seeing as that tends to be every other generation, maybe we'll see a sequel to Sun and Moon seeing as third versions might be a thing of the past now.

Remakes of Diamond and Pearl or a prequel to Sun & Moon. I think it's a little too far in advance but assuming they stick to the release pattern, at that stage we'll be at the end of 2017 moving into 2018. That would mean that D/P would have been released for 11 or 12 years respectively making it more than possible for a remake to happen.

 

[kingdenas]

Either Remakes of Diamond and Pearl (I want them so baaaaaaaad) or maybe a third version of Sun and Moon (or a sequel like BW2).

 

[Socratic]

Despite relatively disliking them for a long time, I think that remakes of D/P/Pt would be really nice, but I'm not sure if that is all too likely to happen too soon. For now, I'll hedge my bets with Pokemon Z :P

I have a feeling that Pokemon will never die, they'll keep rehashing games or rehashing material. In the end (if there is one), there will be around like 20 original based games (like playing FireRed, Yellow, etc) and maybe 10 or so alternative games (like Stadium, Pokken, etc).


I'll be honest, as much as I love Pokemon, the series really needs to stop. It's becoming one of those situations where if you are unable to afford it, then you'll have nobody to play games with, since everyone else (or most people probably) will have the latest and you'll be a few generations or so behind.


Like right now, I only own all the GB and GBC ones, and not a single person that lives nearby still plays those. Most people that I know now own X & Y, Pokken, and other newer Pokemon games, which I'm still sticking to the old school cause that's all I had money for a while ago.

 

[Socratic]

There's nothing wrong with playing older games; in fact sometimes it's nice to play on the older ones by yourself. However, it is much harder to use connections in the older games, so even those who have the older games would be more unlikely to use them with other people, due to this difficulty. Add to this eventual obsolescence and their own social beliefs that this type of thing would occur, and it's pretty much guaranteed.

 

[Altairis]

I want more sequels. With B2W2 I realized how cool it was to travel back to a region where things had slightly changed, but were mostly the same. A remake would be fine by me as well, since they always add cool new things in remakes. Maybe a DPPt sequel.

 

[Hikamaru]

I'm probably hoping for a B2/W2-esque sequel again, especially since I can't see another remake coming so soon after OR/AS was already a thing, and third versions appear to be a thing of the past due to Game Freak finding them too predictable.

 

[t0gekiss]

I'm praying for Sinnoh remakes, but it'll most likely be S2 & M2 or Eclipse.

 

[kingdenas]

For now, I'll hedge my bets with Pokemon Z :P

Why would Pokémon Z come out after Sun and Moon? We're entering the 7th generation and Pokémon Z would be a better game for generation 6, the third version of X and Y. Since that didn't happen, I can't see it coming :/

 

[Socratic]

I'd forgotten that S/M are Gen VII :P it's still possible, though. Just massively unlikely :P

 

[KipKipFox]

Probably remakes of Diamond, Pearl, or even Platinum. (I hope.)

They'll probably make a new Mystery Dungeon game, as always.

I highly doubt Gamefreak will make any more Kanto or Johto games. Even if FR/LG and HG/SS's graphics are kinda dated now, those were ALREADY the remakes of Kanto and Johto. Another remake of the same game might be too much.

I doubt they will make Z or X2/Y2 either. They should've done that while we were still in the 6th gen. Besides, there wasn't enough story for those games anyway.

As for B&W, it will probably be remade in 8th gen. Hopefully the sequels too.

3D, open world, more traditional RPG. I think we're at the end of the "two versions" handheld format and heading toward something new

I think you've actually got a good point. The success of a game like Pokemon GO along with the number of non-traditional choices being made for S/M could be indicative that they're interested in really changing up the Pokemon games in the future.

Yeah, and with the changes they implemented into X/Y onward we're already seeing a more 3D, open world experience that draws from more tradition RPGs.

I think it'll be more like Ni No Kuni both style wise and gameplay wise than anything we're used to from Pokemon.

 

[Socratic]

Contrariwise, a point I've seen a little bit is how this year, the 20th anniversary of Pokemon, has been pointed towards inspiring nostalgia in the fans of the original games. What with Pokemon GO, Alola Forms of apparently Gen I games only, and the release of the originals on the Virtual Console, I believe that this set of games will be a re-introduction to the series for older players. But that's just what I've seen.

 

[Desert Stream~]

Gonna go through the whole list:
Fr/lg squels : Not happening, we had RBY on VC, and a remake would just be fanservice >:(
D/p squels: Most likely option right here.
Sn/mn third version: Unlikely, GF hasn't been making third versions lately, and that's probably a good thing.
Sn/mn squel: Unlikely, They would probably wait till gen 8, or just do a remake.
Z: WE ARE NOT GOING TO KALOS!!! >:(
Rainbow: This is just an unnofficial codename, we won't get a pokemon rainbow.
B2/w2 squels: Another sequel, of a random game in the series?!?! unlikely.
A new game: Possible.

 

[Hikarin]

I always wondered why people want to believe that FRLG sequels are coming anytime soon. It would be a real break from the trend, making a remake of a remake. And then there's that fact alone, that it would be a remake of a remake, which doesn't make sense for the company. If they've money-grabbed a game once, it's not going to work as well if they do it again for the same game.

I think that the DPPt sequels are coming next, or possibly SM2. Post #2 mentioned it skipping every other generation, but since GBA, it's only skipped one generation. Gen 3 had Red/Blue(or Green) remakes, Gen 4 had G/S remakes, Gen 5 didn't have any remakes, but it had a sequel, Gen 6 had R/S remakes, so I don't see why Gen 7 wouldn't do the same thing.

I hope they put G/S/C on the Virtual Console.
