Official Pre-Pokémon Sword & Pokémon Shield Speculation & Leaks thread

[Joker901]

Anyone else not eagerly awaiting an announcement at this point? XD All the freaking out here and I'm just wondering if anyone else is sitting back with an indifferent shrug.

I honestly just keep coming back to see if there's anything new of interest and because the speculation is fun.

Watch them making a direct just to announce the titles, like they did with s/m.

 

[Zweilous]

The most probable answer, even if it seems unfair. By the time a Unova set is released outside Japan (February), the Reshiram/Zekrom distributions will be old news.

I agree, I love Unova, but it being skipped over in favor of the new game would not surprise me. Plus, as the article mentions, it covered some of its big sellers in other cards, so they may just shove off the legendaries into other sets, maybe include a few other popular Pokémon like Hydreigon and Chandelure in there, and then move on when the next games come out.

That'd be so anticlimatic at this point. Besides, S/M were revealed much earlier in the year. I have a feeling if anything like that was going to be done, it would have been months ago. I could be wrong, though.

 

[BigBadButterfree]

I’m honestly fine waiting any amount of time. Let it come out in 5 years for all I care. I waited 11 years for Pikmin 3, this is nothin.

Having said that, I’m now excited that they might be uploading reveal videos as we speak.

 

[Poke Dragon]

I'm still hoping this announcement is a surprise to keep the shock factor at maximum. I just find it funny when Poke Tubers have their titles in either all caps and or multiple exclamation and question marks.

Joe said it's sun and moon announcement trailer

 

[Cainhxrst]

time to abandon all rational thought and just give in to the hype


crazy to think that this week we'll finally have seen the games this thread has been speculating about for months

from gen 8 speculation, piuk's sri lanka region rumors, those (really good) faked starters of the rabbit, lugia form/eeveelution speculation, kanto speculation, etc

I'm h y p e d

 

[Sakuraa]

Fingers crossed that a. this is the announcement we've been waiting for and b. if so that it'll happen soon

 

[Esserise]

We’ve waited 11 months for these games. What’s another 3 days?

You’re right, that’s not too bad.

But if I have to wait four days...!
