Next gen Pokemon games will be called Pokemon Cobalt and Pokemon Vermillion. The region will be called Alleos, and will be connected to the unova region(like the Johto games), and foreshadow the gen 5 remakes. The gameplay is open world, you can use ride pokemon(as long as you catched that Pokemon and register them in the ride pkmn gear). There will be 18 gym leaders, and can be defeated in any order. All pkmn can be caught in the games(no version exclusive pkmn). But there will be version exclusive story. The fire starter(will be a bear, similiar to haguromo) will have a split evolution depending on if the pkmn is male or female. Male version evolves into a dark/fire type and it's appearance gets more fierce along with the pkmn's flames growing dark flames and darker shades of red. The female version of the fire starter evolves into a cute/pretty fairy/fire type motherly bear. Legacy trainers will appear in the game(for ex. Red, blue, Steven, Ash Ketchum, N, koga, Jasmine, etc...), And can be battled anytime. + The more you battle the legacy trainers the more customization items(so the player can dress as that trainer), and build friendship with that trainer(so you can recruit them for double battles, triple battles, etc.. in places like the battle frontier). The games will contain multiple difficulites, the harder the difficulty the more strategic and higher level the NPC's will get. Alleos region is loosely based on the rest on North America. The pkmn champ is the player's dad, he loves pkmn battles with a passion(that's why there are 18 gym leaders), and he childhood friends with the evil team leader. The pkmn professor is Prof. Cypress(which is married to the pkmn champ and the player's mom). The gen 9 games and gen 5 remakes will contain all pkmn, have all previous battle styles(sky, underwater, triple, rotation battles, etc...) And will introduce 156-200 new pkmn.
