How will the UB numbers be handled in future games? Will Buzzwole/Pheromosa and Celesteela/Kartana stay version-exclusive, or will they rework the numbers like this:
UB-01 Symbiont (Nihilego)
UB-02 Absorption (Buzzwole)
UB-02 Beauty ---> UB-03 Beauty (Pheromosa)
UB-03 Lighting ---> UB-04 Lighting (Xurkitree)
UB-04 Blaster ---> UB-05 Blaster (Celesteela)
UB-04 Blade ---> UB-06 Blade (Kartana)
UB-05 Glutton ---> UB-07 Glutton (Guzzlord)
Or they never mention the numbers ever again.
>yfw next gen is UB8-150
>>32156564
This would be a better way to do it.
Just go with UB (Word). For example, if a future Ultra Beast is a statue, its classification will simply be UB Statue. No numbers.
>>32156579
If that means 143 new mons, I'm ok with this.
>>32156582
Or, OR. Just call them by their name. Since they're Pokemon.
>>32156579
>next gen is a Ultra Beast spinoff with similar but altered game play and mechanics of the mainline games
>work for Neo Aether as you explore the Ultra World on missions, gaining Ultra Beasts along the way
Why would they need to be handled differently? Just ignore the numbers entirely or keep them version exclusive. I doubt they're going to be plot relevant ever again anyway.
