>>51954850To be more specific, here's what's come out in the past 6 years.
>Sun and Moon/Ultra Sun and Ultra MoonA handful Pokemon from older gens (started out just Kanto, now any gen is fair game) now get "regional forms" themed around the game's region. Sometimes those forms evolve into new Pokemon. They range from neat to boring.
These games also have "Ultra Beasts", alien creatures that are some fucked up universe(s) equivalent to Pokemon. Fucked up designs, based on the idea of invasive species. Still, legally, Pokemon.
>Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go EeveeGen 1 remakes with the Go catching mechanics. Depending on your daughter's age, you might have fun playing this together because it has two person couch co-op.
>Sword and ShieldContentious. Will ruin how Gen 7 feels if you play it first, even if it isn't very good. They released DLC instead of revised versions, and the DLC quality is better.
Only had support for 400 Pokemon at launch and never ended up supporting all ~900 Pokemon. This is called Dexit, which is a joke about Brexit, which also happened when you were in prison. Britain isn't the EU anymore. Completely unrelated, the Queen is dead.
>Brilliant Diamond and Shining PearlGen 4 remakes, outsourced to a company that doesn't make games. Everyone now knows why they don't make games.
>Legends Arceus"Open world" revisit of Sinnoh. Extremely comfy. No one expected it to be as good as it is.
Other important stuff off the top of my head:
>3DS eShop is shutting down in February. Download Bank/Transporter before then if you want to transfer Mons.>Pokemon cards have had a massive spike in popularity and cost.>There was a massive hack of Nintendo's servers, releasing development information for lots of games, Pokemon included. We have the Spaceworld 1997 AND 1999 demos, along with a lot of shit about Gen 1, 2, and 4.
