I feel like counting "up" would be more indicative of a gen 9 reveal. Like "Here's gen 1!" "Here's gen 2!" ... "Here's gen 8!" "And finally, here's gen 9!" That's what they did in 2019. "Here's gen 8!" "Here's gen 7!" ... "Here's gen 1!" "And finally, here's gen 9!" is a lot weirder

You fucking doughnut, Pokémon are ONCE afgain going to be the last franchisee to leave the system, like they've been with the DS, the 3DS, the Game Boy and possibly the GBA (though I'm really not sure if Nintendo were bothering to pretend to continue supporting that, hen the DS took off).

Anon, they weren't running a Direct on Pokémon day (they've precedent for that, last time PD was on a Saturday, the video came a few days before it).
I might ALSO add, you're fucking retarded for thinking TPCi (who run the English twitter acc) have any bearing on what Game Freak do or when Nintendo and they choose to reveal games.
Once again, for the slow people - all they do is market the brand in the west, translate and disseminate official missives from Head office and their parent companies, they're the unit with the least amount of autonomy - a subsidiary of a subsidiary, not even trusted to have a non-Japanese CEO to boot.

>Kanto (RG), Johto (GS), Hoenn (RS), Kanto (FRLG)
>Kanto (FRLG, Johto (HGSS), Hoenn (ORAS), Kanto (LGPE)
They're not skipping Sinnoh, partly because there's kids today running around who've never played it (and as Game Freak only really care about selling the games to children, they're more inclined to remake an older game, as they did for youin the past, to share them with the new players and as they've established a clear order how they remake their games (eg, core remakes come first Gen when the series moves to new hardware), it's hard to see them rolling that back now). And that's without taking into consideration Sinnoh is Japan's 2nd favourite region overall behind Kanto an GF clearly favour and pander to Home market before us gaijin retards.

Did you see the picture? It's a pretty big hint. Also, it doesn't matter if Sinnoh is Japan's second faovrite region. Gamefreak likes to throw curveballs and they probably will this year as well. Johto is also pretty old and happened around Gen 4 as well, so Johto can be new for many kids of today like Kanto was.

The grasping of a 20-something having an early mid-life crisis over his standing in the overall fanbase does not concern me. Game Freak have the numbers - better yet, so do we. Sword and Shield managed to get about 150% of LGPE's then to-date sales in just 6 weeks. game Freak are going to continue to push this direction for their new players - otherwise they'd have continued what LGPE brought to the table, instead of going back to their old style of games.
Just because (You) don't want them to touch your childhood, doesn't mean they're going to stop how they traditionally sold their games to kids.

Anon, the timeframes don't match up. There was USM, LGPE AND Sword/Shield on the go in 2017, the USM team went onto the DLC, the LGPE team went onto the DP remakes and the main team only started working on Gen IX in 2019, when they were starting to wind down on Gen VIII. There's no team and no time (LGPE team was majority new hires/younger GF staff as Masuda wasn't pulling whitebeards like him away from the coalface of the new games) for it to happen. Enjoy your remake, learn how the studio operates in future please.

Anon, there's "surprising players" by changing how they rehash the game or not even rehashing the base game at all.
Notice please, while rehashes have gotten rehashes, the remakes still appear in sequence and still hold the pattern they launched on. But sure, tell yourself they won't remake your childhood, see how that worked out for the hoennbabs, never mind the original genwunners.

And they will break that, anon. Just like how you didn't expect DLC (many expecting Gen 4 remakes or Pokemon SWSH2), they are going to whip out a game that nobody expects. Wether that will be a Johto remake for Gen 8's remake, or even Gen 9.

You should learn first. There is no "a team" "b team" "remake team" "main team" etc.
There's a programming team, design team, debug team etc. that each focus on different parts of a game. What was the "remake team" doing in gen 5? Do you think that the character designers make a few designs and then just sit on their ass for a few years until it's time to focus on the next gen? Why do you think games don't usually have the same director back to back? They develop multiple games at the same time like every other video game company does.

But there is anon, it all started with HGSS, they had to hire new staff to work on the remakes (Platinum was the last third version the senior team had made) which Morimoto oversaw in between his work on Gen V's battle engine.
Since then the senior most staff work on the new Gens, the new hires get blooded first in the remakes/rehashes team then slowly get folded into the main crew.
Why do you think Masuda made a point to mention how LGPE's team were majority younger and newer staff? Because they don't let them near the main games of a Generation till they prove they can handle a project first, meaning they have a clear hierarchy to how they assign their staff to dev teams. And as there's always a project in the works, if you're not on the new Gen project, you're in one of the side-groups - simple facts.

It's not about length of time spent in between release and remake, it's about the fact they wait till they system's 2 generations dead (Gen II was technically developed with a bias towards GBC, going as far as to lock out Crystal from being playable on the original GB) before introducing a remake in the newest Gen to launch on the new hardware.

Doubt it, unlike a design inspriation or other abstract concept, this pattern makes them money and sells consoles for Nintendo (which is what is expected of them at this stage, millions of software and hardware sales - it's why Nintendo have them shitting out a game a year now, means they themselves can not have their shit ready for planned launch and still not take the hit for missing it).

Projection, I didn't think they'd do a rehash like USM, but I also knew they weren't stopping releasing something for christmas either. Lo and behold, they didn't do the rehash, like I thought (can't justify a $60 rehash to parents like a $40 one was an easy-sell) and ALSO released content to help sell systems at christrmas as usual.
Keep seething fuckwit, in case you forgot, the nu-gen kiddies love this shit, didn't care for LGE though, which is the key. You don't throw good money after bad (cf XY's sea-change from BW/BW2' scenarios).
