Better than which part? Better than making cute but ultimately inconsequential nods? They do it in every single game. Better than cross-referencing the Aether people looking up materials at the Canalave Library? There's not really anything more there to discuss. Faba and co. came, got what...

Type: Null is just a cute reference to get in on the anniversary fun. There's no secret profound lore or story arc waiting around the corner. DP remakes would be set before Null's creation, and DP sequels probably aren't ever going to happen, but even if they did, I think you could maybe expect...

No they don't. There is nothing in SM that suggests this.

We already know why Lillie ran away with Nebby, though. She felt bad for it and wanted to help it get back to its home. That's not something that needs an entire game in order to explain.

Oh man, I don't know if I can think of something that would be more pointless than slightly-different dual versions of a game that is already, for the most part, pointless. That being said, if Stars were a paired game, I suppose it would make at least some sense. Pokémon games are known for...

Wouldn't that basically be a sequel?

If Stars is real (which I'm about 50% convinced of, myself), then I think it will be a third version, just as the report says - the only question in my head is, to what extent will it be augmented? Will it be essentially just a copy/paste of SM? Will it add a few extra features, like Crystal? Or...

Probably because they wanted the Trials to be different from Gyms. If it's just a puzzle that ultimately concludes in a battle against what is essentially a Gym Leader... what exactly has changed? They've just transformed the Gym Trainers into Pokémon. As compensation, we get to battle the...

This is where I stand, although I'd flip the Bad and Worst Endings. I'd consider Stars to be at least better than nothing, even though I most likely wouldn't pick it up myself. To me, DP remakes are... ehh. It's not that I don't want them, but we're going to get them one way or the other, and I...

Not that there's anything inherently wrong with that, and as I said, it fits the concept of Alola being a delicate environment. It has more relevance to Alola than the likes of Heatran and Cresselia have to their own native region. Which I did say was dumb. I mean, it's not hard to figure out...

I don't think a Z game would have had all that much more to say about Zygarde, overall (and almost certainly wouldn't have been able to make the Cell collection thing work, which is what makes Zygarde the most unique third mascot). I mean, neither XY nor SM truly say all that much about their...

I'd hardly characterize their treatment of Zygarde as "half-assed." Yes, it's stupid that they didn't bother to explain why it was in Alola when it would have only taken a few moments to do so (although speaking solely in terms of what Zygarde represents, it's a great fit for the region), but...

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but don't they usually announce if there's going to be an upcoming Direct?

I still just don't think it feels like Sinnoh's time yet. Give it another 2-3 years and I say hell yes to remakes. Right now though, especially when there's a possibility they'd be on the 3DS? That reeks of formulaism, when they can potentially do much more once they've gotten settled onto the...

Not at all. Ash isn't going to be in any Kanto sequels. Plus, his standard appearance is one of the most iconic things ever.

Oh dear. Literally every Pokémon game contains a reference of some kind to all preceding games. The Megaverse was only first mentioned in ORAS and retroactively applied to XY by way of Mega Evolution. That's the only criteria they give us for determining what's a part of the Megaverse - is...

Zeroing in on Piplup and Lucario seems like missing the headline, if you ask me. It's a movie set in Kanto, to feature Kantonian characters and mostly Kantonian Pokémon, and the starring Pokémon is from Johto. If Sinnoh remakes were next, there's no reason why they couldn't just make a standard...

The next games should definitely be Black 3/White 3. It's time for Team Plasma to rise again.

Yep, there are as many references in SM to the Interdream Zone as there are to the Distortion World/DP's dimensions. And lots of references to/reimplemented mechanics from Gen 5 in general (more returning characters, too!). I think this actually proves that the next games are BlackMoon (because...

I don't see how this point means anything when you can't actually "catch 'em all" within your own, singular game. You will inevitably have to get help from other people or a second console/game. And if you want any Mythical Pokémon, you'll technically be downloading additional content onto your...
