Re: Genesect in Movie 16
The pacing for the anime has been ridiculously fast, so I could see that as a sign that the generation is ending. I didn't really put that much stock into the fast pace until the releases for B2/W2 and Genesect being revealed, but it makes more sense given those other two events. As for Ash's team, I could honestly see the writers leaving his team so underdeveloped like they currently are. He's captured far too many Pokemon in this generation for even the majority of them to get satisfying development, especially when they've had a hard time doing that with even a full team of Pokemon, and he hasn't tried to develop his Pokemon into a strong team like in AG and DP.
Considering the lack of direction for Team Rocket, I'm not surprised that has gone nowhere and I could easily see it continue going nowhere. As for Team Plasma, I don't think that they're the new Porygon and I could see them appearing sometime in this season. Or at least I hope that they do, even though skipping pretty much all of their important appearances from the first B/W games would make that difficult.
Like Piplup mentioned, they'll probably try to resolve those rivalries in a rushed manner, regardless of whether or not they'll be satisfying.
In my opinion, Iris doesn't have any development or at least any development that's actually believable. Either way, she definitely won't be included in the next generation. I think that Cilan could stick around, or at least he has a better chance than Iris does, but it depends if there's any characters in the early stages of the sixth generation that could fill his role of the group.
I never really thought that there was a chance Ash would use any of his older Pokemon from the opening. That would make the decision to give him more than six Pokemon even more questionable if he was going to use his older Pokemon. Besides that, I figured that those Pokemon were just there to hype up the return of older generation Pokemon to the anime. That's why I thought Primeape, Charizard and Squirtle were included with the Pokemon at Professor Oak's place, despite being in other location. And Gliscor could also be included in that regard since it was never clear where it went after the Sinnoh League.
I'm not sure if they could start the sixth generation in early 2013, but I could see Genesect not appearing in the anime or the movie as a possibility. Since the first trailers are misleading, can include Pokemon that don't appear in the final movie and Genesect distribution being revealed so soon, it could be that it was only included to tease the audience that the Pokemon could be available for the new B2/W2 games.
New Pokemon to go along with that new Sailor Moon series would be seriously awesome. I would love that too. Though, I'm not sure how likely that is to happen and I do think it's more likely that they'll keep it for the fall, but it does seem quite likely that a new generation, along with a new series, will come out sometime next year.
I don't see any reason to believe this gen will be rushed. The pacing of the anime doesn't seem right:
- We might have gone through the Gyms quickly, but Ash's BW team still feels mishandled and underdeveloped. I can't believe they would leave his team so lackluster like this if the gen is ending.

Gliscor'd said:- The total lack of villains. TR's arc has went nowhere and the lack of Plasma makes no sense.

Gliscor'd said:- Iris and Cilan won't continue into next gen, (no matter how much people convince themselves they're the new Misty/Brock), and I don't feel like Iris' development is anywhere near done.

Gliscor'd said:- If this is the case, we can assume Ash won't be able to bring back any old Pokemon seen in the opening simply because there's no time.

Dr. Mecha said:I still don't believe Genesect would appear in the anime or movie; they made that trailer mostly to announce the distribution of the Pokemon to be available soon, and get it out of the way so that they can start gen 6 in early 2013.

Piplup said:I'd love it if somehow they release next gen in July 2013, which will probably be when the new Sailor Moon anime starts... new Poké+SM at the same time... OMG <3
But it's probably September, really... I'd be surprised if it's earlier than that... and if it is, then it'd probably be in January with the start of the new year and right after the end of the Unova League which is expected to be in December
