Temporal Diamond and Spatial Pearl
I think Time Diamond and Space Pearl would be perfect.

That would be as much of a surprise as the bike returning in SWSH when that wasn’t seen since Gen 6.
1 Gen you mean. Plus there’s no reason of getting rid of Megas from SwSh when other regions have it.Calm... The bike was only gone for 1 game. And I suppose it just didn't work culturally in Alola? No one really cycles in Hawaii.
Youtube. I haven't watched any of it. I just see the titles that pop up. I want to wait until later before looking at rumors.Where are these rumors?
Yes there is: to allow the devs more time and resources to put other Pokémon into SwSh rather than models for an old gimmick. If you’re only willing to put in half of all Pokémon models into your game, why waste spots on a previous gimmick that would most likely see very little use?Plus there’s no reason of getting rid of Megas from SwSh when other regions have it.
Join the misguided fantasy. You know you wanna.I find it extremely doubtful that this game will feature Mega Evolutions.
Now you're beginning to sound just like me only last year when I had high expectations to what SWSH could have, only for that to be shattered into splinters when the Press Conference, E3 and the game was released. They clearly rushed the games, took out Megas and Z-Moves for a new gimmick and cut over half the pokedex. There is even a windows mouse cursor in the credits for a split second to tell you how tight GF's schedule actually is. And no doubt the Gen 4 Remakes would be similar. Megas will come back, but probably not this Gen, for this Gen is going to be about Dynamaxing/Gigantamaxing.Join the misguided fantasy. You know you wanna.

Misguided? GameFreak cut them from SwSh so it seems somewhat likely that they won’t return. I figure GameFreak wouldn’t want to overshadow Dynamax and Gigantamax with Megas and/or waste resources on a gimmick that isn’t the focus anymore.Join the misguided fantasy. You know you wanna.
Yeah, misguided. Wrong. Mistaken. Ill advised. Unsound. Foolish. Misguided.Misguided?
Is it really that foolish/wrong to think that a mechanic that was removed in the first games of the generation won’t return in the second games? I mean, Megas were already pushed out of the limelight in gen 7, unless there was some major focus on them in LGPE that I’m unaware of. GameFreak removing them entirely in gen 8 isn’t exactly that far fetched.Yeah, misguided. Wrong. Mistaken. Ill advised. Unsound. Foolish. Misguided.
We have been talking about two different things.Is it really that foolish/wrong to think that a mechanic that was removed in the first games of the generation won’t return in the second games?

Whoops, sorry about that. Guess I better brush up on my reading comprehension.I have been referring to the idea that megas will return as misguided. Because it is. But I can hope.
Neat but can we have megas back pretty please? With a cherry on top? I'll accept basically any sacrifice just to get Mega Blaziken back.I've had more time to ruminate. So I'm gonna pull an "If I ran the Pokemon Company" scenario and throw out how I would revisit Sinnoh (actually for me it would be visit for the first time - DPPt are the only games I haven't played). I've mentioned some of these things before but I wanted to get my thoughts more organized.
The region itself would be done in the style of Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee, with "chibi" models and a pseudo grid, in order to maintain its structure. I went this route specifically because the routes in Galar suffered while the towns were for the most part immaculate, but I'm not sure how much of that has to do with the free roaming and how much was because the Wild Area was so emphasized. The only exception to this rule would be the Great Marsh which would have a Wild Area feel to it, regular proportions and all. The Pokedex would essentially be Platinum's with maybe a few tweaks.
The Underground, on the other hand, gets a total reimagining to become a second Wild Area of sorts. It is here, as well, as in the Great Marsh, where Max Raid Battles would occur (other than that, we ignore Dynamaxing - it's really more of a Galar thing). A second Pokedex for this area exists, primarily consisting of Pokemon from Gens 5-8 and bringing the total of available Pokemon up to around 400 just like Sword and Shield. With this reimagining comes a new name, the Dreamscape, guided by Fennel and accessed with the aid of the new box legendaries Cresselia and Darkrai, who are retyped to Psychic/Fairy and Dark/Poison to better complement each other. Hence the names of these "remakes" being Pokemon Dream and Nightmare. It's much more liberal than the straighter remakes we've had in the past but I think it works better than whatever prefixes they would add to Diamond and Pearl.
