We all want Kalos sequels, it seemed like Sword and Shield would be that after all the cockteasing but apparently not.
Don't get me wrong, the nostalgia for Platinum at least is still there but anyone autistic enough to stay with this franchise since childhood without giving up from other zoomers making fun of Pokemon for being the same shit and then proceeding to play COD likely still has their DS to play the original still.
Unlike RS, there's nothing to warrant remaking DP. We grew up seeing the golden era of Platinum to XY without there being any re-releases in-between.
Believe what you want, but none of the kids in my middle school even played Pokemon GO. They all made fun of it from the Misha song, and it seems like the turbo-zoomers don't care either as Fortnite and tryhard e-sports is the big new thing.But yeah the closest Pokemon ever got to being "popular" again was Gen 6, it seemed. I saw both older and younger kids playing it and trading frequently and it was the first time where it felt like a social thing. After that everyone downloaded GO like once and fucked off before going back to making fun of it again.
