Back on the topic of new regions. For anyone who thinks there can be a "southern part of Kalos" as a new region, do you even realize that the Kalos region was actually based of the entire country of France? Please take a look at the map again. That southern part that connects to the south west you were talking about? That's actually part of Spain, not France.
If the next generation was going to take a G/S/C-like approach (which I doubt will happen), which obviously most people here on the forum don't want, then it would have to be based of the United Kingdom, which is exactly north-east of France, and could connect to the Kalos region.
We're pretty much set on the path to a "Pokémon Z" being revealed, as far as I'm concerned, then followed by another sixth generation game in 2017. And if we do get a "Pokémon Z", don't expect anything more than a reboot to X and Y, with a slightly different storyline involving Zygarde and some new features. But what would that do, would it surprise us one bit? No, of course it wouldn't... it's just a reboot, because we're expecting more than that. But what would I do about it? Just play it as usual, no matter the storyline. ^^
But hey, we're getting mixed opinions here, I'd love to see something completely different. But even if it's something the same as X and Y, I'd love to enjoy the new features. But many of you are wondering... "why is it taking so long?". Well, it wouldn't have taken long to develop Pokémon Z, if it was a reboot, right? That's correct, but also... you've gotta also take into account that the developers at Game Freak actually had a year-long holiday from developing games. In other words... they weren't working at all and were all at home doing their own stuff and hanging with their families and stuff like that, and they don't get to do that much, due to the huge amount of work that they have to do. Just imagine having to stay up all night long, working over-time and not getting much sleep. That's pretty much what the developers have to face every day when they're working. Yes, they might have started development on Black 2 and White 2 right after Black/White, but then they had to have a year-long holiday, that's why we have a gap year in every generation, it should be considered a "break year". 2015 was no different, they probably only got back to work by November 21st, 2015. Which means we still have months before an announcement of Pokémon Z is made.
