Gen VI: X/Y released worldwide on 2013. This is the first time that there is a time gap since /vp/'s creation and now people are: /VP/ ON SUICIDE WATCH; Z IS NOT HAPPENING/WAS CANCELLED; etc.
Be patient, /vp/, if this year Kalos 2 wasn't announced then the next year it will be announced. Also since Gen III every gen receive a lot of spin-off release.
