So we all agree that regardless of what gen SM is, it's going to be battle and trade compatible with XY/ORAS and outside of the new region and Pokemon it will be pretty much just be gen 6 right?
>>26129710
>S&M
>be gen 6
Yes. We all can agree.
>>26129710
No. Only way to transfer pokemon will be the Bank, new pokemon will make compatibility impossible.
Now go away and delete this useless thread.
New Pokemon, new generation.
It's not hard.
>>26129710
I hope not. Why would they do another 3+ years of the same exact battle mechanics? Why would anyone want that?
>>26129751
>new pokemon will make compatibility impossible.
New abilities/moves/mega stones in ORAS didn't make compatibility impossible.
Damn you people don't learn do you? Are you one of those newfags who doesn't remember all the arguments about ORAS not having new megas for this exact reason?
>>26129758
>regardless of what gen SM is
Reading is not hard.
>>26129762
It wouldn't be another 3+ years. If you consider SM a new gen, expect SM to be the ONLY games of that gen. There are only exactly two more pentagon slots for a reason.
It will probably be
2016 - SM
2017 - nothing
2018 - new gen on the NX

>>26129764
Then show me your Mega Fug on XY... oh, you can't. We got new megas, so not full compatibility.
Now go away and delete this useless thread.
>>26129794
they're still battle and trade compatible you retard. no one said anything about FULL compatibility.
>>26129786
It's rumored to also have a handheld device.
>>26129794
>so not full compatibility.
You are aware that every game has something like that right?
Deoxys
Giratina
Rotom
Kyurem
etc.
What matters is that you can use every feature between the games and you can battle, trade, voice chat etc between ORAS and XY.
That is full compatibility unlike say GSC which only allowed trading between it and RBY.
>>26129710
Yeah pretty much.
