>>57195223It'd be more surprising if we didn't get one
Man, Niantic loves being Niantic
>>57195223do you brainless manchildren need confirmation for this?
>>57195223You’re telling a Pokèmon Presents is happening around Pokèmon Day? Who could’ve guessed?
>>57195231At least its a specific date so its not a bunch of threads over and over about 'will there be a presents or not' because they only announce it a few dozen hours ahead of time.
>>57195223Well no shit
Good. Finally Watchogs time to shine
>>57195231>>57195234>>57195227>>57195293Our good friend Joe needs confirmation.
>>57195223I still can't believe we genuinely had to wait a whole year to get news on Legends ZA. It's fucking insane.
>>57195337That's how Watchogs mega looks like?! DAYUM!
>>57195223And the sky is blue.
>>57195337I would impregnate that rat.
>>57195223Is Rhyperior in?
>>57195223It's Pokemon Day. Give me a break, how is this news-worthy?>>57195435Not only can I believe it, but it felt obvious from the facts thatA) the Switch 2 was coming outB) they hadn't already shown in-game footage from the first PLZA trailerC) people had been complaining for years about the games being rushed so GF took more time to work on the games (how it'll look when it's done is a different story but the fact remains they're doing what people wanted by sacrificing a year when the game would've sold well anyway because of brand name just to work on the games more)
>>57195223I WANT TO BELIEVE
>>57195480True, but even of they didn't have any finished gameplay to show of they could have shown a png of the player characters and starters (materials they already would have had).
The big question I guess is will there be Switch 2 news before or after the Presents?>said Switch 2 will be shown before end of fiscal year, which is some point in March>chances seem high for a Switch & Switch 2 launch of ZA and Prime 4, similar to Twilight Princess and Breath of the Wild previously>we know Gen 10 is not soon from leaks, so any surprises otherwise are likely for the 2nd half of the year>always a chance of spinoffs instead (everyone loved Rumble Blast being the first 3DS Pokemon game, right?)
>>57195770no
>>57195770Switch 2 is getting revealed this month
>>57195793>senatorarmstrongsource.gif
>>57195223Unova tho...
>>57195378I knew the filth of the fans led back to that scoundrel...
>>57195231/thread>>57195337>off-model trash
>>57195337disgusting
>>57195240It's always THIS specific date now, you fucking mongoloid. It's the Pokémon's birthday.
>>57196024I agree, this picture is hotter
>>57195872See you next week anon :)
>>57196039>2016>2019>2021-2024If you expect them to be reliable then you are in the wrong franchise
>>57195223>date leaks through futureproofed dataHilarious how absolutely no one notices these things when they happen through Masters>>57195231>>57195234No info = no happeningsimple as
>>57195240>>57196039>>57196089You imbeciles realize there is no date in the printscreen, right? anon is just assuming February 27th for obvious reasons, but the "leak" is just that there will be a Pokémon Present at some point in 2025, which is even more stupid than a leak of a Pokémon Present on Pokémon day
>>57195435were you not here for the ORAS-SM gap year either way once the game release date drops they're gonna go on a massive fucking shill spree
Wouldn't it be funny to see a person who hates Legends Z-A throw a tantrum over gen 10 not being announced this Pokemon Day and not releasing this November that he has to wait very long for it to come out in November of 2026 and having to suffer with gen 9 even more?
>>57196608>GO Tour: UnovaHello newfag, Pokémon GO's Regional Tours occur in February each year. By associating Unova Tour with a Pokémon Presents airing, they're in fact confirming a February video reveal.
>>57195223A Pokemon presents on a Pokemon day!? Who woulda though!?...
The Pokemon GO Unova tour literally takes place worldwide 3 days after pokemon day so of course there's gonna be shit said about it.
>>57195223No way, you mean we're getting a Pokemon direct on the anniversary just like we have every fucking year for the past 5 fucking years? What a shock!
>>57195668It's all but confirmed, between Indigo Disk taking place in Unova, the leaked TCG set coming this year revolving around Unova, and the Unova timed research that's launching alongside the presentation I'd say we're probably in for BW remakes by ILCA or some other dog shit studio. Get ready for BDSP 2.
>>57196581People literally did though when Nemona got added lol
It's gonna be a nothingburger
>>57198108it's been debunked >>57196089
>>57198941we're gonna get infos about ZA they need to release it at least for christmas season
>>57198502>Indigo Disk taking place in UnovaWhat does that have to do with anything? That's like saying Gen 10 has to take place in Kitakami because it was in the DLC. You people are retarded.
>>57201874I shouldn't have to break this down, but I will anyways. Anyone who's been playing Pokemon for longer than a single generation knows that towards the end of each generation they tease the next one in some minor fashion that's usually more apparent in hindsight. Indigo Disk has basically nothing to do with Unova outside of remixed battle music and some vague character connections. They could literally just swap the region name and remix different battle music and they could've said it took place in Johto or Sinnoh, or any region. Hell, blueberry academy could've literally just been off the coast of Paldea or something but they chose Unova specifically only to do basically nothing with it. Galar was teased in USUM by having Gmax Toxtricity on a poster in GF's in-game office, Alola was teased in XY and ORAS through the Strange Souvenir, and Naranja and Uva Academies were teased in Galar through the oranges and grapes on the wallpaper in the hotel Game Freak's office was hosted in. They're very clearly priming the audience for Unova related content.
>>57201950They chose unova as it's been 15 years since it was in fandom consciousness and it's too early for them to feature it in another game (2028, as per the pattern of remakes upheld by BDSP).Never mind they hinted to SV in both SS AND Legends, with wallpaper in one the hotels being oranges and grapes (like the academies) and Cogita, the canon millennia-old commentator owning a copy of the Violet book in Legends: Arceus. And neither actually pointed to an older region being the base for the new Gen game. That's the point about teases - they're meant to be all but incomprehensible, until the new region's revealed, game is launched and the fridge brilliance of putting Gmax Tox/Strange Souvenirs and Violet leather-bound tomes in the games preceding their release is revealed. Not make a hanmfisted "reference" that only a paint-huffing gobshite would take as a hint.
>>57201996>patternfaggotrystopped reading there, kill yourself.
>>57195223finally, the palworld killer...
>>57202002>says the retard using patternfaggotry to explain why the next game will feature her childhood region againDie in a fire dickhead. New regions only for new Gen pairs. Else they'd just rehash Kanto and Sinnoh as Japan's two mostest favouritest regions ever, not make a third world shithole AND an island shithole into a region like they did in % and 7.
>>57195435Normal franchise don't release major game every year. It's good they had a break.
>>57201950>They could literally just swap the region name and remix different battle music and they could've said it took place in Johto or Sinnoh, or any region.Except for Lacey, Drayden's grandchild.
>>5720207899% of video game franchises aren't pushing an IP aimed directly at 7 year olds anon. As Pokémon does, it understands this year's 7 year olds will not be 7 next year and a fresh bunch of 7 year olds will replace them instead. Meaning shilling it out every year helps them achieve their aims of targeting 7 year olds yearly.
>>57195435My guess is Legends ZA was slated to be a Switch 2 launch title, and when the Switch 2 got internally delayed to 2025 they also delayed the marketing campaign since Pokemon usually only goes hard on it when there's 3 months left before launch.
>>57202115We had gap years in 2015, 2011, 2006, 2004, 2003, 2001, 1997 from main game series games. Plus they served us PLA and BDSP at almost the same time.
>>57202154That'd be fucking hard when Nintendo developed the system specifically to be backwards compatible and order the Pokémon games off Game Freak for release on specific systems. And the fact Game Freak revealed it as a Switch game, never mind the fact they revealed its existence before Nintendo even bothered revealing WHAT the new system ultimately is points to no-one involved actually intending for this thing to be a "Switch 2 launch title" when Pokémon never end up launch titles, due to focusing on gouging kid sales with rehashes during most system launch years.
>>57202211>And the fact Game Freak revealed it as a Switch gameThat doesn't mean they wouldn't keep it until the Switch 2 launched, it just means it would be an inter-generational title.Having a Pokemon game as a launch game is a big thing even if it's also coming on the older system.
>>57202211They specifically mentioned that it would come for the "Nintendo Switch family of platforms".If the new console ends up called Switch 2 or something like that, it would still hold true.
>>57202023Nobody said Unova for gen 10 you retard. learn to read before talking shit.
>>57202218Just buy the fucking system dude. You're clearly desperate to drop 500 on a launch model but Game Freak will wait until the kiddy revision in '26 to launch on the system with Gen 10. Just like they wait to start supporting new systems with new paired Gens when one releases mid-Gen on them.>>57202225Yeah but the point is it's not a native Switch 2 title, you cocksmoking fuckwit. Like I said, Nintendo already confirmed it'll run on the new system themselves and if they call the new sytem Switch 2, it will be part of the family. But it's not going to be developed on its devkit, nor with it in mind, as it's a Switch title and they'll want it working on Switch for 145m potential sales vs forcing people to buy before the cheap kiddy model gets shat out to ease their wallet woes.
>>57202241No, it just sperged all about unova and how the DLC meant something beyond being a foreign place to the region and to Japan (which they wanted to return to to add Hisuian 'mons to the modern), ignoring it's all just treated as Paldea in the code regardless despite Unova having its own origin code numbers, so I started to skim-read because if yon gobshite can;t do basic research but comes to autism central for the games and IP, I'm not going to bother wasting energy treating them as acting in good faith. Go huff paint elsewhere shithead.
>>57195337
>>57197135I sure hope so.
