Kalos is literally connected to the Paldea region, plus one of your teachers in SV is Kalosian.

[@MEISMUDKIPS]

Nah, ideas were always floating around since kalos is based on France and is connected to Spain (paldea), and there was that giant landmass we can't get to in sv. Idk how many others knew about the theory, but i at least knew about it

Here's to hoping this game will have strong ties to the past like how the Legends Arceus revealed historical facts about the Sinnoh region. Perhaps we'll get to see the events that led up to the war in Kalos, as well as the origin of the ultimate weapon and the mega stones. So much potential for this game.

I think they're gonna do the Kaiju war the games have been hinting at, with megas being a way to fight back

[@soycalitoss]

so is the game only gonna be lumoise city?

[@MiamiGameHunter]

The biggest problem with X & Y was that it always felt like a test run, the building blocks leading up to a definitive third title the same way Crystal, Emerald, and Platinum were for their respective titles. Those titles were so solid that we associated the region with that one and largely overlooked the flaws of those earlier titles. But ofc, we never got Pokemon Z.

[@Igorgetyou95]

When you realize that even more cause X/Y are gen 6 so why did Gen 5 and 7 get basically v2.0 (B/W 2 & Ultra S/M) but gen 6 was pretty much the red headed step child? One could argue about Sw/Sh and S/V not having v2.0s but I’d say that kinda goes out the window since they both got DLCs so…

[@banko-xv4rt]

Naming it Pokémon Z-A /A-Z could be a hint of the game telling the story of Azett while focusing on Zygarde as the main legendary🤔

To be fair the teaser for scarlet and Violet also didn't have gameplay, just a room with some oranges and Spanish deco. But that still had a vibe... This one is giving me nothing. It's great we get Kalos again, but what is city remodelling even supposed to be gameplay wise? The draw of Legends Arceus was the past setting. And here we are like what... Exploring rebuilt pokemon Paris? It feels like they had to be "oh we have to whip something up real quick after because people got too much into palworld, we need to get them excited for pokemon again.

I say Legends Z-A comes early 2025 and in November 2025 the next main Pokémon game comes out.

[@leonardblazeanimati1665]

I believe we'll not get gen 10 next year, they'll delay it until 2026 because it is generation 10 on the 30th anniversary, that will be a bigget accomplishment

[@lubbo5261]

Pokémon X was my very first Pokémon game, so it’s a huge nostalgia factor for me so I’m popping OFF right now

[@isaacmullins7270]

Black and white were my first and I actually feel betrayed by the Pokemon company for how they decided to skip over an entire region with more lore and quality.

[@Tsiriasmenos]

Nintendo dont have to even put effort in their trailers anymore. They just show you the blueprint of a trailer and people are still prob gonna buy it coz they own their childhood.

[@ejnagatoshi8551]

Maybe the gameplay wasn’t fully finished. Maybe they were working on other aspects of the game.

[@step_indapool6799]

Lumiose city is in Kalos, right? So, we might be getting PLA version of Kalos, right? I hope the story of AZ explained better in PLZ-A.

[@ThatTrainerD]

Yep, it’s kalos. We’ll most likely see something of az, he has to be around no matter the time period

[@bensdiaz]

Thats nice, but have you tried Palworld?

[@Nordisk11]

More photorealistic slop made for people who prioritize graphics over anything else

[@eazybaby5094]

Now let’s see if Palworld scared them into making a good game

[@Nordisk11]

SMT better

[@trifurobert1349]

​@@Nordisk11SMT are quality games , pokemon games are pokemon games

Cyberpunk and Pokemon signed a deal ... AND I LOVE THAT IDEA ❤❤❤

[@Muhammad-o3m]

I always wondered if the eeveelutions could evolve cause i really wanna see that

[@LeSpearow]

Everyone was cooking up gen 2 and gen 5 theories, then nintendo threw a HUGE curveball with a LEGENDS game set in KALOS, which is really genius marketing. Giving something no one was expecting but everyone wants is a great thing. Its especially funny when you realize that they were teasing gen 2 throughout the pokemon day direct with all those unowns

Pokemon Legends Z-A -2025 (Like) GTA VI- 2025 (Reply) ⬇️ ⬇️

[@gamesmoney1025]

Honestly Scarlett and Violet were such disappointments, I'm not even excited about this game. I'll see the reviews after it comes out instead of pre-ordering

[@carlosmoreira844]

Almost started crying dawg I've been wanting megas for so long

[@aaronjboysreleasing2001]

Pokemon Legends Z-A, are coming in 2025 next year for the Nintendo Switch systems, digital pre-orders will be beginning available in 2025 on Nintendo E-Shop!

[@codyraymiller]

Game Freak needs to focus on quality over quantity. Start making quality games again. We don't need a release every other year.

[@ROWLETFAN31]

It’s releasing late 2025. So November 2025 awaits.

[@FactsB4Feelings]

Remember what pal world showed us is possible Nintendo. Make this game as it should be, or watch the downfall of your corporation begin.

[@leonardofarias8843]

Or try to take inspiration from Nexomon

[@boyyo7741]

Considering with how gamefreak handling pokemon lately. This comment section inhale too much copium, reminding me of how Bethesda fan when todd announce starfield.

[@KikonSketches]

Let's see how gamefreak releases another unfinished glitchy mess for $60 +$30 DLC smh

[@filled9971]

FR LOL

[@chaseoneil8942]

I recommend not playing it then

[@Adarsh-i8l]

I hope the game releases during mid or late 2025, so that Game freak can deliver a masterpiece.

[@denizgumusbas1000]

Mark my words chikorita gonna be a starter or get a mega

[@hectorlopez1120]

Cant wait to play at 2 frames!!!!!!! Im actually done with pokemon games after Scarlet and Violet. Ima give this franchise one final try. Im just one person, one quitting isnt going to affect the BIGGETS piece of media entertainment. Only reason is for megas. By far my favorite battle mechanics…

[@Musical-Wolf-Melody]

Same however, this time I will not pre-order. I am going to wait and see the reviews.

[@Chitransh_Agrawal1]

Its Kalos!! The fan fav. I just hope that they also give us an anime version where Kalos team returns and finally reveal that ash ended up with Serena.❤❤

19 years later the game we thought we was getting pokemon z

[@suguaakini4478]

I was hoping for Legends Celebi but this..this is all my childhood theories about Pokemon Z coming back to life.. and it's amazing. Knowing the game was most likely in dev after Arceus, I really hope it won't be rushed and will fix where Arceus failed, while improving what made the previous title so unique
