[The Nemesis]

Does anyone have one of those 5-star Rare Kitchens? I'm trying to get 2 so I have a lazy way to level things up, but trying to get one off the randos in my plaza is basically pointless considering I've only ever seen one solitary visitor with anything 5-star, never mind the kitchen.

Only thing is that I've heard getting that first connection with a friend in festival plaza can be a PITA because people on your friends list apparently don't default to VIP status, so if they go online and the plaza is full you don't see them.

I think Sinnoh remake gets announced. That covers 4-5 minutes of the 8.

I also think they announce a Pokken port. That covers maybe 2-3 minutes.

The last 10 seconds? They put a star inside of a Switch screen, flash a 2018, and go to black. Pandemonium ensues.

Good chance for both of the first two.

I'd say the last thing is guaranteed. That's the most Nintendo way to do anything, ever.

Yes, I have the 5 star Rare Kitchens with one set as my first building so people can get it. If you need me to be online in order to get access to it, I can probably be around tonight.

Guessing:

-Pokken port to Switch
-Pokemon Go Summer event - increased Fire and Ice spawns in June
-Magikarp Splash exclusive content or something
-Pokemon Switch game continuing the Coliseum/XD storyline, but with more integration into the mainline games
-Pokemon Stars/Eclipse slated for release Fall 2017

Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. Not sure how feel.

 

[Afino]

Wow they're going the B2/W2 route with Sun and Moon. I didn't see that coming.


Glad Gold and Silver coming to VC though.

 

[Kairi Zaide]

Not Pokemon Star but close enough
Necrozma fusing with Solgaleo and Lunala pretty much confirmed.

Wonder what they meant by "new" Pokemon. I would be surprised if they meant there would be totally new Pokemon. Probably just a different dex.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. Not sure how feel.

That was the big reveal? At least they're new games. I'll have to watch it later.

 

[Kairi Zaide]

They look so amazing. Wonder if they will be a different type (could totally see Fire and Ice combined with the obvious Psychic)

 

[rangerssharks414]

Glad Gold and Silver coming to VC though.

Yessss!

 

[wingsnut19]

This is awesome. I'm excited for this, even if it is fairly predictable. If it has new move tutors and some sort of battle facility, along with hunting the legendary Pokemon post game like in ORAS, I'll be even more excited.

NEW MEGA EVOLUTIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNSssss

 

[Afino]

Lot of scuttlebutt over a "mistake" on the official site teasing a Switch release for USUM. Already gone.

 

[wingsnut19]

NEW MEGA EVOLUTIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNSssss

Haha, I'd be excited for those as well, but I don't see them happening.

Seems like most people on the internet are rather upset about the announcement and that they aren't on the Switch. We have basically no information about the games, why don't people wait a bit until we get more news before they get so agitated?

 

[Kairi Zaide]

I have no issue if these games aren't on the Switch. I'm sure we'll see a complete Pokémon game at some point on the Switch, just have to wait.

That said, I ****ing love Ultra Lunala's look (I'm gonna call them Ultra forms for now, since that's likely what these are...)

 

[rangerssharks414]

NEW MEGA EVOLUTIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNSssss

I sadly do not think this is going to happen.

 

[Kairi Zaide]

I sadly do not think this is going to happen.

i want new pokémon

give us other undisclosed islands (like replace one or two with one or two new ones) that has undiscovered pokémon

since the sun moon dex is small af

anyways

could definitely see new alolan forms

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Would be nice if they could fix Kommo-o and actually give it access to a lot more fighting type moves.

Superpower would be nice. Close Combat could be broken. What I would have liked is if it could boost it's SpAtk outside of Work Work Work Work Work Wo-work

By the way, I just tought about it. Since it will be a new story set in the same world, I have to think there will be new Ultra Beasts - especially if the story is drastically different, since the current UBs were basically based on characters from the story...

If they have all of the Move Tutors from ORAS, Superpower would be an option.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

I still have to finish X.

 

[JS19]

So WarSolgaleoMon and MetalLunalaMon.

 

[JWK]

Considering I didn't enjoy S&M much, not sure if I'll buy this......

Nah, who am I kidding. I'm buying this day 1, I'm whipped.

Honestly, just getting Mach Punch and Drain Punch would be huge for it.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Ugh, why couldn't there be Crystal for the Virtual Console? If I recall correctly, you only get one of each evolution stone per game! (excluding the Moon Stone, which you can get once a week)

Edit: That is for Gold/Silver only. You could get more than one in Crystal.
