I've specualted that the game is going to be released in Spring 2016, so an announcement somewhere between October and December of this yeat seems likely. We're always getting a bunch of movie news in December, so we're most likely getting our Zygarde forme information then.

Or even February, which is the 20th Anniversary of Pokémon (aka Red and Green's 20th Anniversary). That's going to mark a third game released in February, if that were to happen of course. {XD}

Does anyone else think it's significant that Zygarde is covered in hexagons instead of pentagons? People have been speculating about Kalos' conspicuously absent southern portion since XY came out, and if you look at a map of France, the border with Spain comes to a point, giving France a roughly hexagonal shape. It would make sense for the Zygarde game to expand Kalos to form a hexagon.

Now a lot of people are speculating that the next Kalos game will introduce entirely new Pokémon, due to the disappointingly low number in XY and the assumption that the green blob from the trailer is related to Zygarde but is too different to be an alternate form. Granted this would be unprecedented (and the same thing was wrongly predicted about B2W2) and I don't believe it will happen, but allow me to play devil's advocate for a second.

Assuming that the next game does in fact incorporate southern Kalos and introduce new Pokémon, the question is: how many are we getting? XY introduced 72 new Pokémon and there are three Pokédexes, meaning each Pokédex has around 24 new Pokémon. Would we only get 20-30 new ones just for the Southern Kalos Pokédex? Or would we get 60-70 and have them split evenly among the four Pokédexes?

Whatever the case, I'm positive that Southern Kalos is happening, it just makes too much sense.

It's not necessary to have in covered in pentagons, but it's cool and there's no point to be against it. :)

That speculation with new Pokémon already begun long before XY was available in the trailers, due to the spoilers. I was very supportive of this, but not now. What's the real point on introducing another bunch of 70 Pokémon, when they are closing the chapter for Gen VI? Making more money or garnering more heat and hate for Gen VI? {XD}

Of course it is natural to be unprecedented. Why are they going to show us any idea that is reused? Let's have some highlight:
- Deoxys forms were a surprise, nothing like that has been done before. Originally Deoxys' certain forms are exclusive to certain Generation III games.
- Giratina and Shaymin's forms were unexpected as well, as there were no Pokémon that can change form with items. Additionally Giratina is the first mascot to have the ability to change form. (Rotom a none legendary, received several new forms as well and the forms are even retconned to different secondary types.)
- Keldeo and Meloetta are Pokémon that can change form with moves, the latter one changes forms with Relic Song while the aquatic horse's form change is semi-permanent with the move Secret Sword.
- Black and White Kyurem, while form changing is not a surprising factor anymore, the method Abofusion is still new.

In fact none of these legendary Pokémon I mentioned have exact the same form changing methods. Then there are Mega forms for Rayquaza and Primal forms. :)

That little green blob and that gigantic Pokémon? I think they are both Zygarde's forms. Or Zygarde's split to be more precise with my speculation.

I have a strong feeling we're gonna get prequels to XY.
I also hope we won't get a third ORAS game since we already had our remake and it's xy turn to shine;)

I don't mind prequels, but the inconsistency is gonna increase if they introduced more Mega Evolution forms or new Pokémon(not counting Zygarde's forms as it went to Terminus Cave and hid in there).

You have a point, but I'm sure they will have a "good" excuse for the lack of the other Pokemon.
Perhaps they will belong to a nearby region.
When r they gonna shed some light regarding that?..

Or probably the disturbed ecosystem wiped out the other 'new 70', thus that explains their non-existense in XY. {XD}

It's easier to make excuses with Zygarde's forms -- it only appears when the ecosystem is greatly disturbed.

But if they are creating more megas, then ugh I can't make any valid excuses for that. It's easier to explain of the next game aren't going to take place in the Kalos region.

I want them to announce that already. I wonder when will that be.

 

[Nah]

At this point really they can sorta-kinda get away with continuity errors since they went and pulled the whole alternate dimensions shtick with ORAS, and that's one of those things can you can kinda keep using for a long time even if it's lazy and poor writing.

But this. I really do what them to announce it already =(

I afree with you there, the alternate dimensions idea isn't my cup of tea either.

Given the supposed Zygarde form sillouete, that green blob pokemon, and the merchandise sheets hinting/teasing new pokemon, I wouldn't be surprised if we got an announcement later this month tbh.

A lot of people are thinking they're going to announce the new game(s) after worlds takes place, which I think could be pretty cool.

Prequels? That would be interesting but what makes you think that?

Around August 20th to the 23rd irrc. It just seems the most logical time to announce it if they want to release around February 2016 for the 20th anniversary.

Uh... Read our previous posts? ~_~

Here's a little bit of light in case you are lazy to check them. :P

When the Kalos region's ecosystem falls into disarray, it appears and reveals its secret power.

It tells us that something happened in Kalos, before the events in XY took place. Not a folklore or a mythology.

An old man in Anistar City says that other groups of people (which is not Team Flare) were looking for Xerneas/Yveltal.

I think I have missed a few stuff from the previous posts, but yeah those are the reasons why we came up to this theory.

Is CoroCoro out yet?

 

[Ultan]

Is CoroCoro out yet?

It gets released 15th of every month (or earlier if the 15th falls on a weekend).

So expect leaks around these days for our XY sister game(s). ^_^

Here I am still hoping that the green blob AND that gigantic naga as Zygarde's split-forms.
