1) Gamefreak has never made a Pokemon game for the main console.Are you serious? Is this some sort of joke? They never even ANNOUNCED a Wii U Game, that was my ASSUMPTION, so if they never announced the game how can you POSSIBLY say it's a spin off game? How are you SO arrogant that you can't fathom that maybe, (JUST MAYBE) the console game is NOT a spin off, but rather another mainline game?
2) Gamefreak has expressed severe dislike to the idea of making an MAIN game for a home console as they are supposed to be for the handheld systems only.
3) If the game is not made by Gamefreak, it is a Spinoff and holds no place in the main series. Since the Backpacker reference is in a main game, it is for a future main game and not a spin off.
IS THAT what your whole problem is? That console games must ALWAYS be spin offs? No one ever, EVER said that once. The Wii U game is all blind speculation, btu you speak with authority that it (a game that for all we know doens't exist) MUST be a spin off and MUST be set in orre? Wow. That hurts my brain. It really does.
I never said it was set if Orre. You used Orre as an example, I corrected your incorrect statement. Orre isn't related to any main series, and isn't recognized by Gamefreak. Since Gamefreak doesn't recognize spin offs as official they would make no connection between their games and any spin off created area such as Orre.
The two years time limit is not for a new gen, it's for the third in the series (or the sequel, as was the case for Black and White 2) http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_games_by_release_date
Why are you so sure we're getting a third game? That pattern was already broken and holds no truth anymore. Two years is plenty of time between main games. Especially since they start working on the next one as soon as they finished the last one. With proper technology they have plenty of time to make a new region and game in a two year span, especially if they can alter and update older games to newer specifications in a year or so from the last game release.
Again, not reading. I said (again, VERY clearly)
Gale of Darkness - Release Date - Aug 2005 in Japan , Diamon and Pearl released Sept 2006 (And yes, in my haste I typed Lucario when I meant to type Bonsly apparently, but the poit is still the same, 2 gen 4 pokemon were shown in the gamecube games BEFORE they came out in the handheld games, so how is saying exactly what chronoligically happened "the complete opposite" of what I said when you can look up release dates right here on the internet?)
Please tell me how a sneak peek into the next games through use of a Spin off is the same thing as a spin off appearing in a main series game hint when the creators of the main series do not acknowledge the existence of spin off information. Gale wasn't the only game to showcase Gen 4 Pokemon before the release. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon did it as well. Orre still doesn't exist and isn't related to the main series. Its its own standalone universe that was used as a marketing strategy to showcase possible new Pokemon a head of time, just as the Anime does.
You are saying that the Strange Souvenir is a reference to a Spin Off despite that spin offs aren't recognized by Gamefreak.
Really? I don't mention it's a comparison? Not even in the post you yourself quoted?
Yeah, I hate it when I don't say things I clearly already said. Glad you quoted me, it made it easier for me to find.
Orre was not a new region in the generation. Its a stand alone game that doesn't link up to any generation in particular. It came out at the time of Ruby and Sapphire, but the game set itself isn't part of generation 3. The only games part of the generation 3 set are the main games, Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Fire Red, and Leaf Green. Orre doesn't appear in any main game data. Origin Region for Pokemon from either Orre game is overridden to become Kanto or Hoenn depending on which you traded to.
Gen 7 is more likely because it is a Reference IN A MAIN SERIES GAME MEANING IT IS A NEW MAIN SERIES GAME. As far as the MAIN SERIES is concerned, New Region with new Gym leaders, new champion, and NEW POKEMON (which the Strange Souvenir is based after a new Legendary Pokemon according to the Backpacker), then it is a New Generation. That's how EVERY main series game has been. A New Region, with New Pokemon, new Gym Leaders, and New Elite 4 and Champion.
The Showing of the new Pokemon game that they had shown before. A lot of people were saying it looked like a Fighting game. It could have been Super Smash Bros. It could be something new, but it has NOTHING to do with the Backpacker and his hint. Gamefreak doesn't make Pokemon Spinoff games. They make Main series games. They don't want to make home console games because those aren't what the Pokemon main games should be put on according to their set standards. If its an Orre like region, The Strange Souvenir will have Nothing to do with it and its not the region that the backpacker was mentioning.
Letting us know in the next year still gives them a year to release, which would also put it to a three year gap. We got our first official Gen 6 Movie using both Yveltal and Xerneas, a year after release. It has Diancie, first of three hidden Pokemon. Give another year for Volcannion and/or Hoopla to appear in their movie, and then the last to appear sometime before the launch of the new gen games. There is plenty of time. We already were told we aren't getting add on content to the current games, and if Spin offs are supposed to tie us over, then oh well on that.
Its also been almost a year since this has surfaced. Really should have heard something about it by now. Slim chance its related to Smash since Blaziken hasn't been confirmed for play in it. Could be a new game you want, but that, as mentioned already, has nothing to do with the Strange Souvenir or the backpacker. Could be a rumored Pokemon Fighting game. Background fits with all three, and style matches SSB for the Wii U. Blaziken could have been concept only and trashed for Greninja or Charizard. Almost a year and nothing said about it. Most games that go under the radar for that long are games that were cancelled. Especially since it was showcased before the release of X and Y and after said release we've still heard nothing new.
There are a number of things it can be, but there is one thing it has a chance to not be, a Main Game. It still has nothing to do with the Backpacker or Strange Souvenir.
I think the thing is is that the Strange Souvenier does not point to or have anything to do with a (main series) WiiU Pokemon game because:
1) The main series games never reference the spin-off games
and
2) The main series games have never been on a console, and there is zero indication that Game Freak will ever put the main series games on anything other than handhelds.
Does that help? Am I even on the same page?
Right page. At least in my book.
