Topic: Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee!

@jump The company that registered the domains are the same company who deals with Nintendo.com and pokemon.com. Nintendo doesn't handle the domain registering etc themselves, they have a third party company do it for them. A look up on WhoIs shows that the same company is indeed behind the domains.

Please let it be an additional minigame dont change the capture mechanics to "Throw and pray" with no strategy or prep involved.

Dont change levelling up to that dumb CP crap.

We went to Kanto in Gen 1

We went back to Kanto in Gen 2

We remade Kanto in Gen 3

We went back to another remade Kanto in Gen 4

We got loads of Gen 1 Pokemon and the damn starters and even the only legendaries besides the new 3 were the birds and Mewtwo in a cave in Gen 6

We got loads of new Alolan Forms that were all Gen 1 Pokemon and Team Rocket in Gen 7

I will be down for going to Kanto again with the new Fairy type added, the changes to moves and abilities, physical special split etc. etc. and the new "Mid-game" moves they added from Gen 4 onwards. Stuff that isn't weak nor amazing like Earthquake. You know the Mud Bombs, Scalds, Acrobatics, Psyshocks, Charge Beams of the world.

But at the same time...god am I sick of Gen 1.

remember the pokemon-stars.com domain was made and it now leads to pokemon.com
yeah, what if that the same thing for this?
you can proven me wrong all you want. but until Nintendo actually reveals the thing. i am still gonna believe that this is still fake.
bu,t hey if it real. i still hope the GO stuff is optional or Done right. and i am gonna picking up the eevee version too. (because of it's evolve options.)

I would actually like it if you used the Joy-Con to “throw” the Pokeball, that would feel great with the HD rumble.

I think that a new Kanto can work, if we get full camera control, a new story, and remixed towns and routes. If they make it feel like a new region, there are 0 complaints from me.

@Tsurii You know its kinda funny.

The notion of seeing the Gen 1 starters again. Battling Team Rocket again. Seeing Red and Blue. Seeing all the old Pokemon again.

That sounds AWESOME to have all that in one package.

Except we just had all that dripfed to us over 5 years.

Honestly if they hadn't done that, I think long time fans would be down for it.

A good example actually is the Death Egg Robot in Sonic Generations. That's cool...but you just did that in Sonic 4 a year prior. Or bringing back Chemical Plant in Sonic Mania....but you just did that in Generations.

For nostalgia to be effective it has to be the first time in a LONG time.

Gen 1 is pretty much the new Green Hill Zone.

Man, I literally just made that sane exact joke on Twitter.

@Tsurii Not to mention nearly all of Unova's Pokemon being weird replacements for first gen evolutionary lines.

@Deku-Scrub yeah I’d prefer they take that route as well. We’ll see when they probably announce it in the next week or two.

The best way to hide is in plain sight.

@YummyHappyPills this is a bizarre way to tease a pokemon game.

I just want the announcement to be made so I can stop anticipating it.

@Walru-Cheese I think we can all agree to this.

@YummyHappyPills This is adorable!

I would say tone your hopes down.

This is not going to be the dream remade and reimagined in 3D Kanto that people such as myself envisioned way back in the day. This is going to be Kanto with upscaled Sun/Moon graphics, or worse. Controlled camera, many relics of a 2.5D world still in place, etc.

I'll admit that Sun/Moon took strides in the right direction away from 2.5D graphics, although the fixed camera still made it feel like otherwise. However, I just don't have much confidence in GF fully bringing Kanto into a new, 3D and HD light. It would be super neat if they really went all out with it, but look about who we're talking about here. Sun/Moon were just barely starting to catch up to OOT level 3D.

I read ''throw and pay''. Now that's a brilliant idea, can I work for GameFreak?

You know. I kind of miss that Pokeball customizing thing from Gen 4. That was actually kind of fun to do.

Nintendo trademarks eevee in Hong Kong.

which may not lead to this leak, but it might be real, for sure.
i still want to wait for an official announcement though.

I personally enjoyed Gen 1-2 the most, so this could be good news.

I actually might play Pokemon Go too if it's integrated right. I was so dissapointed at Su/Mo I resold it after completing the story.

Agreed that this would be better as a spinoff. The last thing the main games need is more pandering to 1st gen, mobile gamers, and casuals. If this is really the big Switch game they were teasing Game Freak's lost their damn minds, it's like they have no concept of what people expect out of a console Pokemon game.
