So, a little theory on why USM will introduce new Pokemon.
The suspiciously low amount of mythicals this gen will all be released months before USM's release, which is unprecedented. There's no way that they won't have any mythicals to shill in 2018 and 2019 before gen 8. USM was planned to have new Pokemon way in advance, which is why they didn't need to put future mythicals hidden in the code of SM like every other gen, as its compatibility with USM's pokedex will be broken regardless.
However, it's also possible that they just have heaps of new forms lined up for movies and whatnot in place of mythicals. But it would be a weird move since new Pokemon are a lot more exciting for events.

Or Gen VIII is actually coming next year like GF plans, or we have another Gen III with shilling Gen VIII mons for a year or two in movies.
>>
>>32776642
Or, you know, they can release Gen 8 next year.
The mythical who'll be shilled in 2018 will just be a Gen 8 mon.
>>
>>32776664
Next year is the live-action Detective Pikachu movie, so they don't even have to shill a Mythical.

What do you think they meant by "pokemon not featured in alola before"?
What "new" pokemon will we see in Ultra?

>Ultra Sun and Moon reveal trailer shoved between 5 minute Pokken promo and GS VC announcement
>Overshadowed by main game on Switch announcement THIS EARLY

What went wrong?

I think it was supposed to be announced at E3, but later when they decided they wanted to focus on Switch games for the main event, they pushed it out a week early, and thus didn't have anything else prepared for E3.
>>
Since the trailer mentioned the Ultra games will feature pokemon not seen in alola before, what sort of pokemon do you think they were talking about?

Since the E3 cocktease, I've been thinking about what to expect from these games.
We all know GF is so incompetent that wouldn't be able to pull off a great game for a new console like the nintendo switch, so they began hiring 3D artists some months ago.
If Game Freak decides to collaborate with other game developing houses, the next Pokémon game could finally be something BOTW like, which you CAN'T but be happy about it (unless you want the franchise to stall or focus even more on younger and younger age kids.)
Why Open world?
I'm not talking about MUH OPEN WORLD ALL REGIONS MMORPG XD
That'd be stupid as fuck, Pokémon has to keep its main features:
- Turn based battles
- 6 Pokés team
- Light main plot involving completing a series of challenges via pokémon battles
This could just be expanded by:
- A big region with a vaste liberty of exploration (If I go into the big desert with only my starter I get fucked and decide to go somewhere else for my own sake instead of being blocked by some dude telling me to come back later)
- A whole lot of subquests (they could just be stupid shit like catch me a big magikarp, I'll give you some items and gold. Think nier automata and how all the subquests, all the exploration and backtracking makes that world feel a lot cohesive and alive, the Pokémon world could execute this in a wonderful way)
- A shit ton of random generated overworld 3D fauna just for the sake of our eyes
- Some minor RPG-like stats (Breeding, Battling, Trading, Wild Encountering, etc exp gauges which give you benefits when leveled up)
Of course I'm spilling a lot of delusions and hopes I'll never see fulfilled, but for those of you who spit on ideas like these, tell me:
Why wouldn't you want Game Freak to make this game with the help of some competent game developers?
Also, discuss hopes for pokémon on switch, and please don't shit all over the thread like you use to in those genwars, starterwars and waifushit thread you like to hate so much.

The idea appeals to me a little. But I won't go out of my way to hope and wish for something that will never happen.
>>
>>32776079
open world has no place in pokemon, exploration was never the core of the series

breed WITH them and inject your seed into them

Just breed them, it isn't particularly difficult or time consuming with a 6IV Ditto and shit

If you do what >>32776056 suggested it'll be the best of both worlds, and then you can stick that shit on WT with the leftovers.

She is Lychee, the "Island Queen" of the island they'll be visiting. Satoshi decides to go with her to her destination, but on the way they run into trouble.
SM32 - We Found a Treasure! Mooland Search!! (June 29th)
>Satoshi and the others have to go treasure hunting as part of their Akala Island classes. They each choose a Mooland Ride Pokémon as their partner, then immediately set off. But during the treasure hunt, the Mooland that Suiren chose doesn't really want to listen to her all that much, so it turns into an uphill battle for her.
SM33 - Little Yowashi Isn't Lacking, It's the Lord of the Lake! (July 6th)
>The students at the Pokémon School are greatly enjoying their Akala Island classes. Satoshi goes with Suiren to a lake where it's said you can fish the "Lord of the Lake". Suiren gets a big bite the instant she throws out the line, but because it's so big, it's not very easy to reel in.

No.
At this point I suspect that the announcement itself was supposed to be at E3, but they decided they wanted to focus on Switch games, so moved the announcement a week early.
I wouldn't be surprised if we got something around the 20th though, if the cycle works like SM did.

The problem is that Pokemon, as a franchise, literally can't fail so everybody loving it doesn't mean all that much.
Everybody loved X/Y, too, but that gets endless shit here.

I hated it at launch and pretty much every site I go to has had since launch people who love it and people who hate it and even some people who just felt it was whatever
funny how shit works
