Can we expect new Pokemon and Alola forms in Stars?

They've been changing up the formula for the 3rd versions, making them more inticing to buy rather than being just a simple retread of the vanilla versions.

Alola has a disgracefully low number of new Pokemon and Alola forms. We got more Megas in X/Y than we got Alola forms in S/M.

Hawaii is also compromised of 8 islands, not 4. My guess is they'll be another 4 islands to explore come stars, with new Pokemon and Alola forms. Maybe not the same size as the already established islands, but pretty meaty nontheless.

But how will backwards compatibility work with S/M if we're getting new Mon? It won't. Well, we won't be able to trade back at least. It'll be like ORAS and X/Y with the new megas. Unless they decide to patch it which is always an option.

Of course there are still 133 pokemon that still need an alolan form

We'll be lucky if we get another Necrozma form

I think Kanto starters are getting an Alolan form at the very least. Its a new feature, and you'll bet they'll give it to the most popular Pokemon.

I think it would be complicated to give Alola Forms to pokemon with a Mega Evolution. Would the mega stone work on both forms? Would the alola form change type when mega evolving? Would there be two different mega evolutions depending on the form?

>People expecting more pokemon

You're getting the already existant pokemon and you're going to like it. Expect at least a few measly forms.

AT LEAST

fuck the person who started the stars rumor, I'm tired of hearing about it

True, but it seems like they'redone with megas
.
No new ones were introduced in S/M. Saved until postgame. Banned in official competitions. Dark pokedex entries which make you feel guilty for using them.

Its a strange situation they've got themselves into. Its seems like they regret Megas and are focusing on regional forms. My guess is they'll give Pokemon with megas regional forms, but only the "original" variant of that Pokemon can use it's mega evolution. It's be strange if, say, a fighting type Alakazam mega evolved and looked like it's Kanto counterpart.

I don't think they'll want to miss out on giving Pokemon with megas a regional form, as a lot of them are really popular. Charizard, Lucario, Garchomp, etc. They're all fan faves, and I can't see them missing out on this new feature. Imagine how many bricks would be shat if we got Alolan Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle. It'd boost hype for Stars like no tomorroe, and be an excellent marketing tool.

Gen 1: Two third versions!
Gen 2: A third version!
Gen 3: Third version after remakes
Gen 4: Third version before remakes
Gen 5: Paired sequels instead of third versions
Gen 6: No third version, only remakes
>>
I actually have a poll for that, and hope you're alright with me posting it in here

Do you think the next game will be on 3DS or on Switch?

Can they even make any new variations in the middle of a gen?
Won't that make the new ones unavailable for the already released games?

Or am i completely wrong, and all they need to do is release an update?

>New starters are Larvitar, Bagon, and Gible

>>31075006
Not even counting new legendary forms, there were still new Mega Evolutions in ORAS and new Rotom forms in Platinum. It's not unheard of
>>
>>31075115
I mean, we got new Deoxys forms as far back as FRLG. They were just completely unique to the game they were on. I think maybe the stats carried over to link battles at least?
>>
>>31074493

I think no. If there were going to be more Alolan Forms, don't you think they would be, you know, in Alola already?

If the next game is a sequel, it'll be 2-3 years later at most, that's not enough time for Pokemon to 'evolve' into their environments, if GF did that, it would be fucking stupid.

never ever
permanent forms have never been added; adding alolaforms is literally the same as adding new pokemon
>inb4 gen 7.5
no

Why is everyone so obsessed with the idea of a 3rd version? How about GF just do a patch or DLC

Also fucking save slots when

>>31074981
people are really voting that the next games will be a new gen?
This would be the shortest generation of all time, then
