    What will be the total Pokemon count after Gen 5? The total is at 493 right now.
     
    Definatly over 600. 107 pokemon is too small. at least 120-130 would be good.
     
    idk 2nd Generation had only 100. I think it'll be more like that number
     
    Unfortunately, it will probably be way too many redundant, overhyped, lackluster, and unimpressive-looking pokemon, with unique (and probably unnefective) typing. I swear though, if we get any more Bug/Flying or Fire/Fight, I'm done with pokemon. (until the next day)

    GenIV was 107 pokemon, and with the cumulative amount of creativity in those 107, it seemed like too many. >_<
     
    It doesnt even matter how many there are all that matters is that there is alot of good ones.
     
    I voted under 600 by mistake. Really, I think we'll have more than that and I'm not complaining. Sure, it seems like a really large number... but gaiz, think back to when there were only 151 pokes. Realize how far we've come and how great pokemon continues to do and smile. :D

    Peace.

    This.

    I don't think fourth gen pokemon were that unoriginal at all. There were too many legendaries sure but most the pokemon were either realistic or as original as the previous 3 generations. Personally I think Generation 1 was the most unoriginal of all gens but being the first we had nothing to compare it to.

    I think Nintendo will bring the number to around 600, possibly with another 107 added. That or they'll go big and go for 650. :P 600+ for sure.
     
    They'll probably go for 600+
    They're sdtruggling to make a lot of new pokemon to get more people to become intrested ._.
     
    im have to say that its getting pretty unbareable, but its a buisness. so they are going to make as many pokemon as possible until they run out of ideas or go bankrupt. with 5 gens into it, i dont think either is happening anytime soon.

    Why isn't there an option for EXACTLY 600? :P I actually think it would work out very well if they introduced another 107 Pokemon, the same number as Gen IV. However, I voted for over 600, because I believe that there will be a few legendary Pokemon that will just push it over (maybe some will remain unrecognized until later on, like Darkrai, Shaymin and Arceus)
     
    *Rips out his scanner*

    Over 9...

    Hehehe, just kidding. But really though, expect a lot of redundant over-hyped, over-rated pokes, along with:

    Pikachu Clone
    Flying Bug with Lower Base Stats then Porygon
    Cannon Fodder Normal Type
    Generic Bird
    Zubat and Geodude!111
     
    Gen V will probably give an estimated total of 632 pokemon. I don't know about legendaries as Gen IV had many god-like legendaries so it would probably be just normal legendaries like the Gen I legendaries.
     
    it's 600 obviously

    151, 251, 386, 493, 600
    151,+100,+135,+107,+107

    see? thats why they added 107 in gen 4, so 107 in gen5 would add up to 600.

    ya uh huh that makes perfect sense i get it (i say that as my brain implodes from thinking to hard)

    actually i think it be more like this
    151, 251, 386, 493, 666
    151,+100,+135,+107,+173 lol
     
    I personally don't care how many they add, as long as they're original, non-Gen IV looking Pokemon. I don't care if they have terrible stats or terrible typings/movesets, as long as they look good.

    If I see an evoltuion to Lapras, I'll cry.
