    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    Er... they've already announced that they're making a Switch game.

    I have a feeling that you've asked these questions before...

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    That is what happens now. Nothing different. It can trade anyway, so problem solved.

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    Battling is also possible. From what people are posting here, it seemed like trading was a major concern.

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    Finally we can shut down those non-communication concerns with this. So, it can be assumed that Switch and 3DS could trade, and Pokemon Bank will not be the only way to trade Pokemon.

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    @Bolt the Cat this is also not a typical case since the 3DS appears to be the last handheld. This is a unique situation, and I'm sure Nintendo would make their latest console-handheld successor communicate with (potentially) the last handheld. Since there is no handheld console in line after the...

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    I think an accessory may cause a blacklash among 3DS owners. Did any spin off on console ever require an accessory to communicate with the main games? There is no evidence. In fact, since the other console/handheld pairs can communicate, I think there is a great chance that 3DS and Switch can...

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    *cool down timer complete xd* We don't know yet. Since the previous consoles and handhelds could communicate, I will not be surprised if you are able to trade from 3DS to Switch and vice versa .

    GF. Don't. Make. Spin. Off. Games. I may gain the ability to use fire type moves from the lack of facts people display.

    I was replying to how you said that people would like playing emerald.

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    You mentioned that people bought a 3DS just for SM. So either they have Nintendo systems or have never played emerald. How can people like emerald without playing it? I'd think that a newcomer would say that ORAS is better just due to graphics. EDIT: Also, you're mentioning one game vs 3-4...

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    1. I'd research if I were buying a system close to its end. I had an option to buy a 3DS at the time of SM but then lord Stars rumour had to crop up to stop me from going to the dark side. 2. They have got compensation in the form of XY, BW, BW2, DP, HGSS, RBY

    Pokémon bank, and even Wii and DS could communicate!! I really wish people wouldn't come to conclusions so quickly.

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    Well, the odds of being announced here is 0%, but Pokemon directs are usually independent(?) from Nintendo... This does decrease the odds of a Pokemon game, I'll admit. This direct AFAIK dosen't focus on Splatoon (I've just read a Reddit post) it just listed ARMS.

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    These things usually require careful planning. What if the Wii U began to sky rocket in sales now? Would Nintendo just reduce Switch production? I think it would not be something which cannot be decided in a day.

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    Becuase that would be a selling factor, I guess. I'm expecting to see Pokemon-themed JoyCons for one, along with a Pokemon-themed Switch. (And if they're creative enough, they can distribute RBY games with their respective neon-coloured JoyCon)

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    I may remind you that such decisions don't change overnight... Well, I'm expecting Nintendo to be working to phase out the 3DS line slowly (with the stopping of repairs for O3DS being the first step), only to replace it with a handheld Switch version fully compactible with the regular JoyCons...

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    See: GBA micro and DSi Well, I've seen hundreds of people on Reddit carrying their Switches almost everywhere. I don't think 1 person can declare this display of portability null and void. Switch can also be fitted into a bag.

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    I mostly critisiced the 3DS line. DS lite isn't super beautiful (Wii for life! Even though it isn't a handheld!!), and could use a better aesthetic (PSP had a premium feel). I feel the N2DS has the best design of the lot, and mainly the reason I prefer it over N3DSXL

    The 3DS Successor and its effects on Pokemon

    Personally, I think any Nintendo Handheld before N3DSXL was hideous....
