>>33947490I think we need a new mythical even if gen 8 does come out in 2018. The kids who go watch the movie with their 3DS ready to get a new mon won't be satisfied with just a "Here, take this code that can only be inserted into these games that come out several months from now. Buy Gen 8 if you want to redeem it and get the new pokemon :^)".
Even M19 had both Magearna for the gen 7 hype and Volcanion to serve as an actual gift.
Unless they finally decide to distribute AZ's Floette or Original Color Magearna, but I wonder how they'd tie them to a movie.
