>their average development cycle is 3 years
>they are moving to 4 year generations according to the gaia slide
>in picrel Unova isn't even mentioned, despite it being in the final version.
>Between this and Legends Johto being swapped for Legends Kalos - it's clear nowadays whenever they revisit an old region, they create the idea for the game. Then they choose a region to fit that, rather than the other way round.
>picrel gives solid confirmation that Ohmori purposely tries to give games themes rather than just the theme of adventure. So SV purposely has a school theme, SwSh a sports theme, SM a vacation theme.
>the Legends series will focus on core gamers, expanding lore/worldview and on action gameplay
>the mainline series/new generations they see the future as being for beginners/casuals, expanding the series' reach, focus on online play.
