Pokémon Presents | 2.27.2024

Happy Pokémon Day, Trainers!
The latest Pokémon Presents is here! 🥳

[@edmanbosch7443]

Unova fans: "We want Legends Kyurem!" Johto fans: "We want Legends Johto!" GameFreak: "Screw both of you, here's Pokémon Z!"

*Well, it's better this way. Because it was too early for these Legends.*

Right? 😂 I literally laughed out loud when Z's title showed up. Those leakers were sooo delusional... 🤭 I kind of suspected it as soon as Furfrou appeared, though. 😄

[@RancorSnp]

Legends Areceus also released "next year". In January. Which considering they must release gen 10 in 2025, ZA is likely also a January release so that it doesn't compete with Gen 10 sales in November

[@_d.ot.t_]

@@RancorSnpI think Pokémon may be trying to fix their mistakes so they’ll push it back to 2026 Plus, its like 4 years for every new generation an by next year it will only be 3

[@RancorSnp]

@@_d.ot.t_ Pokemon games do not make enough money to justify pushing back a generation by a year. I would be shocked if they did. That being said, they have only announced 2 games this generation... os maybe? But yeah gens comes out every 3 years since gen 5. 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019, 2022 and next one would be 2025. But yeah, starting Gen 8 they have been doing some sweeping changes for the better. So who knows, maybe Gen 10 won't actually come out in November 2025 (But again, due to the fact the games are such a tiny insignificant amount of their income, I would be surprised if they chose to delay it) And while them not having announced what the 3 game of this generation is, is very shocking. It may simply be that Nintendo doesn't allow them to talk about it, because it is heading to the next console which is rumored to be coming out next year. We'll just have to wait and see

[@RLHvanDijk]

@@syro33 It is still possible that they will make a real remake for gen 5. I mean this is still a spin-off series. Altho when Arceus came out, they also released D/P remake. So we'll have to wait and see what they will do.

I'm not mad, I'm really happy! I like Gen 6 MUCH more than Gen 5 and the constant raving about this thoroughly mid Gen on the internet is so annoying! 🙄

[@syro33]

@@LRM12o8 That's a pretty hot take... But i enjoyed both quite a lot. X and Y i'd say weren't the best games, but they were a pretty exciting time with the jump to 3D and the new type, and i feel like i can excuse a lot of its problems due to that, so i look back on it a lot mord fondly than gen 7 and beyond. I'm excited to see another legends game in general though!

[@Sylvayex]

Pokemon X was my first pokemon game and I've loved that gen ever since.

[@Shiny.Ghastly]

did you consider playing the past generations after that? If not I recommend that you play it, and also there are hundreds of fan made pokemons out there that you can download for free, a lot of those fan made pokemons are so much better than the original games, so I highly recommend it.

[@SvanEsch123]

I def did not expect we’d revisit Kalos before Unova, but I really don’t mind. This region has so much unexplored lore and cut content from the original games, it def has been done the dirtiest of every region. I also like how it appears to be set in a different time period than Arceus.

[@FishBola1991]

I think the other trick is Unova and gen 5 has become a cult classic in the fandom. After they botched the Diamond and Pearl remakes I wouldn’t be surprised if they try and give the development team more time.

[@Moomoomoomini]

Yeah I think the reason comes down to the fact the 2 unova games cover a lot and still look good to this day with minimum issues while kalos always felt like it was lacking in multiple areas as the first game on the 3ds with a lot of cut content aswell

[@skynet0912]

X and Y got me back into pokemon again after not playing gen 4 and 5, so getting a Legends game based on the game that revitalized my love of pokemon from back when i played the original Red when it was new, really makes me excited! I really hope the idea is that EVERYTHING you do in this game will add something new to an ever expanding city, making you wanna go back and see what changed every time you complete a quest or milestone...

[@gardevoirtrainer4526]

I can't believe they're actually taking a year off for Legends Z. They should do this more often, the last time this happened was 2015.

[@ryanholley406]

This works out for the best because GF can have extra time to develop a game, and then release a new main series game the following year on their 30th anniversary in 2026. Likely intentional to draw more hype for a big anniversary.

[@kaicast19]

it's LEGENDS Z-A

[@ninetailedfox579121]

We don't know that. PLA released in 2022, so Legends Z being 2025 would be three years, which follows their standard pattern. They have also likely been working on gen 10 since before SV came out.

[@charityquill4965]

​@@ryanholley406 I'm happy with that as well. I thought legends Arceus was near perfect, with the exception being the graphics for the world map being kinda bare ones. With the extra time they can add that extra polish that will really help the game look extra nice

[@josanchez1536]

What is everyone on? Why is it with pokemon that people think only a year of development time is enough to make a good game? Also we shouldn't get our hopes up. If they were confident they would have shone at least a little bit of gameplay. Which means it's either just getting into the development stage and one year won't be enough or they don't have much because it's only been in development for a year already and they finally learned from the past not to show anything. Gamefreak won't change just from complaints. You guys need to learn that companies only change when the shareholders investors and executives see a massive drop in profits. The fact that swsh and sv sold like hot cakes means that they see they're strategies are working. So don't get your hopes up

[@peanutbutter6720]

That’s just speculation from people who don’t have any information. There’s no way they saw the success of having all of Sinnoh and would downsize to just Lumiose. And even if they did for some reason, I’d imagine it would be much larger than what we got in x and y.

[@rockblockstudio]

Why would you even believe that? One, more than likely nobody has that information and even if they did, they'd be risking breaking some contract talking about the game. Two, if it took place only in the city, it would be boring. Gamefreak knows that. They know players like exploring catching pokemon. They've also been experimenting more and more with the open world concept. Why would they all of a sudden lock the players to one city? That makes no sense

There was no main series published in 2020, and even though BDSP was released in Winter 2021, it was developed by ILCA and not Gamefreak so that is 2 full gap years.

I'm actually really excited to be going back to Kalos, it feels like we didn't really get enough when the main games released. I also am excited that they are taking a full year to focus on the game- hopefully that gives us some big improvements, and helps them better iron out their formula before they redo Black and White. Also, the MEGA EVOLUTION SYMBOL AT THE END MADE ME SCREAM YES PLEASE

[@Idkpleasejustletmechangeit]

I think the year wait is probably also partially since the Switch is 7 years old now, does not get many 1st party games anymore (as evidenced by the partner showcase instead of normal direct) and is likely to be replaced soon (simply because it's too old now). My guess is that it'll likely be the first Pokémon game on the next console. Could of course be wrong though.
