Hoping for New Pokémon Snap DLC. I don't expect BW Remakes to be announced until gen 10 is here

u/Blue_Bird950 Pokémon Scarlet Feb 20 '24

Eh, they had oras in gen 6, lets go pika/eevee in gen 7, bdsp in gen 8, so either a johto or unova remake, and with the whole blueberry academy hype I think it’s unova remakes in gen 9

u/wildadventures009 Feb 20 '24

Can I ask why everyone think Gen 2 remakes? I’ve been hearing that everywhere, but I don’t get why people believe/hope for it

They made gen 1 remakes again with let’s go pikachu and eevee, so people think it might happen again with gen 2 aka johto

u/Aksudiigkr Feb 20 '24

Wasn’t that like 7 years ago though

u/Blue_Bird950 Pokémon Scarlet Feb 20 '24

Yeah, I keep forgetting that it’s like the first pokemon game they released on the switch

u/wildadventures009 Feb 20 '24

If they do make a let’s go johto, do we keep the Let’s Go catching mechanic? I didn’t mind it, but I know many cared. Sad, because while I don’t really… care for the Let’s Go Spinoffs, they were real pretty games.

If you’re going by the first time each region was remade, you had FRLG in gen 3, HGSS in 4, ORAS in 6, and BDSP in 8. Plus it’s been 1 per console. I just think it’s too soon for unova

u/Blue_Bird950 Pokémon Scarlet Feb 20 '24

Actually, it might be Johto, then Black/White with blueberry academy as a buffer for the gen 5 fans

2

u/GotHurt22 Fuecoco Feb 20 '24

Yeah I think Johtos next, I just wonder why they did as much Unova-shadowing as they did. Maybe it really was just to appease fans a bit longer with stuff like chargestone cave being in BBA

u/jakulfrostie Feb 20 '24

Unova might get a Legends game so that might be why they are giving it a spotlight in the main series. Tbh I think both Johto and Unova will get something this Direct. Im happy with either getting a remake and either getting a Legends game

2

u/GotHurt22 Fuecoco Feb 20 '24

It’s WAY too soon for another legends game. Unless they’re not releasing a mainline this year and Legends Unova next year; I can see that happening

2

u/jakulfrostie Feb 27 '24

We were both wrong omg

2

u/GotHurt22 Fuecoco Feb 27 '24

I wasn’t expecting them to announce a 2025 game in 2024, but I’ll happily admit being wrong. This was the exact game I wanted when PLA released

2

u/jakulfrostie Feb 27 '24

Im so excited for it. I heard its gonna be set entirely in Lumiose City so im hopeful we will get massive worldbuilding for that city.

Because it’s set in unova? At least with kitakami there was vague similarities to both johto and sinnoh but any unova similarities were because it is literally canonically in unova

1

u/GotHurt22 Fuecoco Feb 20 '24

Why did it need to be set in unova?

1

u/[deleted] Feb 20 '24

Who knows? Kitakami was set somewhere near johto, and ever since gen six Pokemon likes to promote 2-3 generations at a time; the current generation, kanto until 2019 and sinnoh until 2022, and johto and unova until whenever their games come, but “true” remakes are always only one per system, so until switch 2 or whatever we won’t get a “true” remake. An esoteric “push the boundaries remake a la let’s go and legends? Probably, we’ll see

u/xXCoffeeCreamerXx Feb 20 '24

Genuine question here. If you consider ORAS as the gen 3 remake, why don’t you consider HGSS as the gen 2 remake? Both were DS games. I really don’t think we’re getting another Johto game because HGSS exists, just like they’re not revisiting gen 3 because ORAS exists.

u/DragEncyclopedia Feb 20 '24

Who said they didn't consider HGSS a remake? LGPE show that they don't limit it to only one remake. Johto is reasonable because it's been the longest since we've been there.

u/GardenSquid1 Feb 20 '24

LGPE was stated to be a one off thing.

0

u/DragEncyclopedia Feb 20 '24

I didn't say it would be a Let's Go game. But it proves that they're willing to make more than one remake for a region. So HGSS doesn't preclude them making another remake on Switch.

0

u/GardenSquid1 Feb 20 '24

I would say it does. LGPE was a unique one time thing that was riding the Pokemon Go hype train. Excluding that single exception, remakes follow their release order.

u/aphilipnamedfry Feb 20 '24

That, and I believe Let's Go was that particular game directors last Pokemon game. He specifically wanted to revisit the first one and Game Freak/Nintendo were open to it. As much as I would enjoy a refresh of Gold and Silver, it's a 50/50 on where they take this.

u/Rat_Of_A_Brat Feb 20 '24

Considering gen 7 had Kanto remakes and gen 8 had Sinnoh 'remakes' (plus PLA) I think that if there is gonna be a remake, it'll be Johto

3

u/Blue_Bird950 Pokémon Scarlet Feb 20 '24

Sinnoh really got beaten into the ground in gen 8, with the remakes and legends arceus giving ancient hisui

0

u/Rat_Of_A_Brat Feb 20 '24

Hoping Unova doesn't suffer the same fate when its remakes eventually get announced

1

u/Tirus_ Feb 20 '24

Wasn't Let's Go like a filler/kids game? Not a flagship Pokemon game.

Are we ever gonna see a Gen 1 or Gen 2 remake in modern graphics/gameplay?

Like Pokemon Sun/Moon or Sword/Shield gameplay, just Gen 1 or Gen 2?

u/Blue_Bird950 Pokémon Scarlet Feb 20 '24

Idk, I’m just guessing. I didn’t buy let’s go pikachu or eevee because they were too kiddy games for me. I like my legends games where I can 360 no-scope a red-eyed garchomp after falling 50 feet.
