Have you ever noticed they've stopped making third games the exact moment it became obvious what their title would be immediately after the main games came out? Hear me out
>Pokemon Yellow: being the first gen, no one expected there to be a third game at all
>Pokemon Crystal: No one could've guessed the third game would be about Suicune, and even then, what the fuck do gold, silver and crystal have in common?
>Pokemon Emerald: this becomes obvious when you find out the third game is about rayquaza, but being the first time there's a dragon legendary linked to the two boxart legendary, and with its relation to Groudon and Kyogre not really clear in RS, it wasn't obvious that would be the case
>Pokemon Platinum: Now you immediately know the third game will be about Giratina, but what the fuck is the link between between pearls, diamonds and platinum
>Pokemon BW: The legendaries are literally black and white and there's a legendary with a grey palette clearly linked to them? Pokemon Grey will be the third game duh
>Pokemon XY? The legendaries start with X and Y, their silhouettes vaguely resemble and X and Y, and coincidentally the only other non mythical legendary is a dragon type that starts with Z and whose silhouette vguely resemble a Z. Could they make it any more obvious that there's gonna be a pokemon Z?

They're just fucking with us aren't they?
