Gen 8 is called Plus and Minus
It will be announced Feb 2018
The region is called Fornia
The legends are Positori (Data/Grass), the Network Pokemon, and Negatide (Audio/Water), the Soundwave Pokemon
The regional dex has 58 New mons, the rest being only Unova mons
Fornia is located to the west of Unova
There are two new Typings: Data Type and Audio Type.
The evil teams are Team Upload for Plus and Team Download for Minus
The lore behind Positori and Negatide is they were once in love but now resent each other and view themself as perfection
Gyms are back but there are only 5 in Fornia
Pokemon fusions are now a thing, and is called Additive evolution. Only fully evolved, non legendary Fornia mons can do this. The exception is the two box legends since they can Additive.
Additive evo is only temporary and in battle only
Unova is post game

Data isn't the WORST type idea desu. Porygon line can be retyped. What's it strong and weak to?
>>31958639
I kind of wish this was true.
>>31958675
Data is strong against Fighting, electric, and dark
Data is weak to psychic, bug, and ice

>Gen 8 is called Plus and Minus
I thought Gen 7 was called that
>>31958710
I would say it's weak to electric. High electric surge can corrupt.

No no!
Gen 8 is called Ebony and Ivory
The region is based on Africa (mostly Madagascar) and the region is called Serengeti
Around 100 new Pokémon programmed to be done
The evil team is called Team Soul
The box Legendary are called: Treebony (Dark Grass) for Pokémon Ebony (is a huge black tree based on a rook) and Ivoright (fairy/steel) (based on a Bishop). The third legendary is called Sylphidiana (water/ghost) and it's based on a Queen from the chess (it's a mermaid with a dead whale skeleton as tail)
There were trials here as well but the new pokémon league just reached the region, so the newborn gyms are back.
The Hms are back but in a different way: they are moves that you can teach to the pokémon outside the battle, like an ability. For example flying pokemon are able to fly, water pokémons are able to surf etc...
The regional variants are back: one example is the Serengeti Phanpy and Donphan that are now water and water/flying (based on Dumbo)

I honestly really dig your idea
>>31958675
Data is strong to Vaccine and weak to Virus.

I heard Gen 8 was a prequel, starring a young Sam Oak, somewhat lower tech in-setting.
This way a lot of item-dependent mechanics can be cut for balance.

>The regional dex has 58 New mons, the rest being only Unova mons
At least make it sound convincing, faggot.
>>31960702
The starters are:
Elenion (a lil elephant with an onion bulb on the head). It evolves into Baobhant (Grass/steel mammoth-like pokemon with a huge baobab on the head)
Heabbit (fire rabbit pokemon) that evolves into Spirithare (fire/fairy)

What the hell are you guys talking about?
Gen 8 is Pokemon Legacy and Pokemon Destiny, and it's set in the Noska region, which is basically Scandinavia
The starters are Leafawn, Embant, and Rainewt, their final forms are based on the Magic Girl, Henshin/Sentai Hero, and Kaiju archetypes (Grass/Fairy, Fire/Bug, Water/Ice)
The legends are based off of Jorgumandr (Legacy) and Fenrir (Destiny)
The gyms are back, but they're run by "clans" now, like each of these families have a tradition of specializing in a different type
