>M21 will be titled Pocket Monsters the Movie: Showdown! and will be released in October 21st
>M22 will be titled Pocket Monsters the Movie: Final Battle! and will be released December 30th
>M22 will also serve as an announcement for the next game: Pokémon Indigo
>Indigo will be the first solo re imagining of a previous Gen, taking inspiration from Gen 1 (mostly Yellow). The differentiation between remake and re imagining should be noted here.
>Indigo will act as a re imagining for the Gen 1 games as M20/21/22 will for the Gen 1 anime
>In Indigo, you play as Ash and start with Pikachu, much like Yellow
>Misty, Brock, and Gary accompany you along your adventure ala Hau, Lillie in SM
>Lillie will appear in Indigo
>Indigo will be a 3DS title
>Ash's Pikachu is your starter Pokemon
>An expanded Alola combined with the original Orange Islands serves as post-game
>Satoshi Tajiri will return for the first time since Gen 2 to co-direct Indigo with Masuda
>It is explained in Indigo that the trainers Red and Blue(Green) are renowned as celebrity champions of their region and serve as Ash and Gary's idols, which is why they model themselves so much after them.
>You can only play as Ash through the main Indigo plot, but you can "transfer" your player character and team from Sun/Moon to Indigo after you beat the league to rematch all 8 Gyms, the Elite 4, and the champion who will be Ash by this point in the game. This is where the Passport from Sun/Moon comes into play.
>Unlike Yellow, Indigo's box legend will be Mewtwo.
