Now I ain't too familiar with the Pokemon series, but why did they skip a Unova spinoff or remake for a Kalos game?
>>
>>55757894
haha. i don't really know
>>
>>55757894
Because Unova was too good to get bastardized, so they immediately skipped to Kalos.

LET. IT. GO.
Gen 5 doesn't *need* a remake and GF clearly has not interest in making remakes anymore. it would just be outsourced garbage like BDSP that doesn't do anything different enough to warrant existing. Unova fans should be glad they're getting passed over instead of getting low effort trash to appease patternfags. just play the originals and move on.

we are
shitposters were prepared to bait about gen 5 remakes being low effort trash like BDSP but the remakes weren't announced so they had to pivot to pretending we wanted them. they're the ones coping.

Yeah, imagine Unova getting a revisit in the "modern era of shitty games"! They could do something as terrible as not including the Battle Frontier in Unova! Or contests! Or secret bases! Or ribbons! Or the Vs Seeker! Or the Safari Zone! Or the Poke Radar! Or different types of fishing rods! We wouldn't want a Unova game missing all those features in the "modern era of shitty games", right?

gen 5 dont need it remake , it already is perfect , its the only gen with a sequel too

Where does it say that, mongoloid?
>>55757978
Reminder: no real Unova fan wanted remakes when we knew it would be ass and the og games would be better.
People were literally making fun of Unova fans because "your ILCA remake is coming bort!" but it didn't happen, so they had to change strategy and pretend we're suuuper mad it's not happening. That's why you'll never go back and find a Unova fan that wanted Unova remake in the archive.
>>
>>55758078
It's right there.
>>
>>55757894
They probably felt that Kalos had more to offer/expand upon and it fit more for the overall releases on the Switch games so that you could realistically play all of the games over the lifespan of the Switch and get a National Dex (with gen 5 remakes, you can't get Furfrou and its forms still).
Additionally, they probably do not even know how they are going to approach BW remakes without the Dream World, IR functionality, Triple Battles (they seem to not want them in any games post gen 6),
>>
>>55758081
>it's right there
It literally doesn't even mention Megas at any point. Are you okay?
>>
>>55758043
>high percent of unova buyers were new
kek

An unova remake was never due until Nintendo released a system to replace the Switch, zum-chan.
>>
>>55758148
>2m sales abandomed the series when it appeared on an obsolete console
Not surprising. Without oldfag sales, there can only be new players buying it. But it wasn't the content of BW that drove them away, but the fact the new hotness had everyone's favourite childhood experience as a launch-title remake.
>>
>>55758137
Not that anon but usually the "megas are a gimmick cope" comes from Gen 7 apologism and not Gen 5 gospel.
I have zero clue why Unova actually lives in peoples' heads rent free when it kept core gameplay, properly added onto it, and then some unlike everything after ORAS.
>>
>>55757894
>>55757903
Exactly why are people here so low IQ that they think Pokemon Legends 2 being a thing means they "skipped" Unova?
This isn't a remake.
>>
>>55758332
Overwhelming presence of south americans and american zoomers.
>>
>>55757894
Legends doesnt equal remakes. Sinnoh got both at once fir 2 reasons: it was pokemon 25th annivesary so they wanted to do something special. The other reason is that Sinnoh revisit was long overdue because LGPE happened along the way. Right now its been only 3 years since BDSP. Its too soon for Unova but you can be sure both Johto and Unova will be revisited (hence why Teal Mask and Indigo Disk were so Johto and Unova heavy). Unova will most likely retur next gen or so. Meanwhile Kalos waited over a decade for ANY revisit. Its a perfect candidate for Legends with its unfinished lore
>>
>>55758339
Based and true. You’ve got a good head on your shoulders anon.
>>
>>55758115
You would think with hardware more powerful than the 3DS that Game Freak could get Triple Battles to return as early as SWSH, but alas, they can't even get building interiors to work now.

Unova is a flop, it'd be like Sega referencing Sonic 2006

Because Pokémon fans keep talking about Kalos every generation.

>Why is Zygarde in Alola?! No answer

Every single time. This is their chance to tie up loose ends so everyone can move on.
>>
>>55757894
>skip
Skip fucking what?
This isn't an XY remake.
>>
>>55757894
the XY remake will be two separate games with “adjective X and adjective Y” and outsourced to be made by ILCA or something. why do you think a Legends game that has very different gameplay than mainline pokemon is the XY remake? Legends Arceus wasn’t the sinnoh remake, BDSP was. Use your brain.
>>
>>55757978
I have a strong feeling there will be a Total Shitposter Death with Legends Z-A.
>>
They've spoken about this before and it's the reason why Pokemon Gray, Z, Stars whatever the fuck else doesn't exist and it's because of Game Freak's boner of doing surprise announcements and subverting expectations. Will they make Johto or Unova themed remakes or games? Eventually but it's going to be when nobody is expecting it to happen.
>>
>>55757894
They haven't talked about it at all yet, so I assume it's because of how Gamefreak likes to "surprise" their fans

>>55757894
There's no rule about releasing games in a strict order. They had a concept for a new game in a familiar setting and decided to develop it. If we get 20 games set in Kanto after this it will be for the same reason, not for bias or favoritism or whatever. It's all about having an idea to build around, but leave it to the fandom to find something to victimize themselves about.

Only retards thought Johto was coming because they couldn't accept the obvious, that LPE were just cash grabs meant to capitalize on Pokemon Go.
>>
>>55757894
They didn't skip anything. The legends sub series had only one game and no pattern.
It'd be a skip if they announced an XY remake.

Are you retarded?

to establish that these games aren't following patterns anymore. they don't want us to know what's coming next - they could revisit any region at any time now.

things that haven't happened yet are analogous to each other, and so is speculation that those things were skipped because they haven't happened yet. a 4th grader could follow this logic dude, are you pretending to be retarded?

Alrighty.

PLZ isn't a main remake, like LGPE and PLA. Main remake patter is still on. REAL Kalos remakes are Gen 12 or two consoles down.
>>
>>55762919
Does that make them not two remakes from the same generation?
>>
>>55762935
Not when Game Freak doesn't have anything to do with them. The "one remake per hardware iteration" only applies to mainline games, they went as far as to outright say "LGPE is a reimagining, not a remake" to not break their autistic little ruleset yet never once attempted to make two remakes for any one system (cf: Legends: Arceus being a prequel/sequel to the events of DDPt).
>>
>>55762966
They said LGPE was a reimagining, but they never said it "wasn't a remake". Heck, they didn't even call a lot of their remakes by the word "remake".
>>
>>55762966
>The "one remake per hardware iteration" only applies to mainline games
Coincidentally right after you get proven wrong. Shut the fuck up if you're going to be so retarded.
>>
>>55763056
Fuck you cunt child. Game Freak's own fucking actions from Gen 3 didn't clue you in any? ONLY shit Game Freak staff work on gets referenced in-game from the rest of the franchise. Masuda and a couple oldfags told Niantic how to make it to adhere to their vision of Pokémon, arsepull got added after the anime asked for a mega. Colosseum's pokémon still get logged as "from a distant land" rather than "from the Orre region" because to Game Freak, Orre doesn't exist as a concept.
Thus only shit they do matters when it comes to how they remake their games. ANd BDSP was the Switch's remake, n ot LGPE, the final burner game of Gen 7.
>>
>>55762935
No, one is mainline.
>FRLG gen 3 (gba)
>HGSS gen 4 (DS)
>ORAS gen 6 (3DS)
>BDSP gen 8 (switch)
>>
>>55758332
Nobody wants a fucking remake
Get that through your thick as fuck skulls.

They wanted a spin-off something to explore the region outside of traditional mainline mechanics.
And guess what? It got fucking skipped.

I don't give a fuck if they remake the region, it means nothing.
>>
>>55758339
>nce why Teal Mask and Indigo Disk were so Johto and Unova heavy
What are you talking about? Teal Mask and Indigo gave Johto diddly fuck.

What the fuck are you going on about dude?
You don't want a remake, why do I give a fuck?
I just fucking explained why Legends 2 being a thing doesn't mean they skipped a remake, you goddamn low IQ ape.

I was legit waiting for our Gen 5 BDSP style remake because unlike the rest of the plebs I can tell when greatness is gracing us. This is the second time they’ve cucked us out of Kino. The first time was when they never gave us our damn Let’s Go sequel.
>>
>>55757894
Frankly, looking at what they did with the gen 4 remakes, I don't see the point of remaking any generation if it's just to keep the same Pokedex.

In fact, Legends ZA at least is justified because it's filling the hole of a third version for X and Y, and it's also bringing back what I consider the best generational gimmick with Megas.

I don't see anything worth bringing back with a Black and White remake (especially with Black 2 and White 2 being remakes of their own already), and I liked that gen.
