Pardon me for asking, but what Q/A are we talking about here?

Treehouse only talks about games though. They’re definitely not going to cover the anime/detective pikachu/mewtwo movie.I personally think they might not even talk about Gen 8 for all of the 5 days.
There is a lot going on with Pokemon this year already, with Detective Pikachu, the Mewtwo movie, anime wrapping up sun/moon, LGPE, Pokemon Quest etc.
Multiple days isn't a bad sign imo because they could be saving the Gen 8 news for the final day of the Q/A.

It's not unusual for a Direct to be announced only like 24 hours or even less beforehand.
No problem!Ok!! I was wondering, i tried to look up on twitter to see when the most recent ones had been announced, but of course the search was returning specifically lots of chatter about the possible upcoming one!! Thank you
Theory: Gen 4 remakes are coming soon, and will be announced before Feb 15
- LGPE put a Revive in front of a picture of Spear Pillar ("reviving" Sinnoh?)
- Mallow recently got a Shaymin in the anime, the first time a Mythical has been a recurring part of the regular anime outside of its generation.
- Yesterday, the Pokemon Twitter tweeted about Diancie's ability to create diamonds.
- Masuda's tweeting about the cold a lot, and even tweeted about Sinnoh's real-life counterpart.
- The PokeTimes twitter has been tweeting about a sleepy Pachirisu, and the most recent tweet says that it "can't sleep in tomorrow".
Don't listen to Verlis, he is 100% wrong.Both? I think Verl has been lost on something for ages now.
Yeah I don't even bother watching his videos- not worth the time and I'd rather not give him the views. The guy has no sources or credible information and lives on clickbait.Don't listen to Verlis, he is 100% wrong.
It's the same sort of straw-grasping that people trying to find hints of Sinnoh remakes have been doing for years now. I don't know why people think we'd get them before Gen VIII, this late into Gen VII's lifespan, especially when we've already gotten a set of remakes in LGPE.Ehhh. I think Gen 4 remakes are likely, but to do two remakes in a row on the Switch before releasing any new Pokemon? That's not gonna happen. (Didn't Game Freak confirm these games will feature new Pokemon?)
His points seem really odd, too.
- He brings up the toys including Shaymin before Shaymin was revealed in the anime as a sign, but those toys are pretty clearly based on the anime? Nagisa's in that toy lineup, too, and I'm pretty sure they would have included a haircut Pikachu if it was game-based.
- I don't understand what he's getting at with the Valentine's tweets? He talks about how they've been tweeting about it for what he considers to be too soon to be regular, but then the only Gen 4 remake clue he points to is yesterday's tweet, which is only four days before Valentine's. (Actually, Poke Valentines started on the eighth, not even a week before Valentines, so I don't think it's that weird?) He says they might be trying to drum up attention for a reveal, but a) I'm pretty sure everyone following the Pokemon twitter and looking at fun facts about Pokemon is already paying attention, and b) every tweet about Valentines Day features a Pokemon introduced after Gen 4. (Rockruff, Sylveon, Diancie, and Chespin if you count the start of it) (Also he says "Valentine's Day isn't really important in Japan" later in the video, so why would they base a whole game announcement around it?)
- He says Feb 15 is the cutoff date before Pokemon Day? Why? BW2 were announced Feb 26-that's before Pokemon Day and after Feb 15.
- "There's so much building up"? Even taking all this as evidence, we've got one item in a game, one anime character, and one tweet. That's really not a lot.
- Masuda's tweeting a lot about cold (in the winter), and tweeted about Sinnoh's real-life counterpart (because the cold there became dangerous)
What do you think will happen mate , I personally think we could get an announcement this weekif it's 5 days we could potentially see a spinoff announced too, like another mystery dungeon or something, because yeah it's odd
5 hours seems like a lot even for gen 8, but they wouldn't fly treehouse people out if it was a just a general Q&A on the franchise because as mentioned, treehouse only deals with games, and doesn't actually localize the pokemon games.
Didn't that also happen a few times with Gen VII? If I recall correctly, some people translated the "no new Megas" statement as "Megas will be removed".Only thing I hope there are no mistranslated statements this time with this QA.
The LGPE QA session was full of mistranslations from english media outlets asking questions, getting replies from gamefreak and mistranslating causing widespread panic and chaos for the public community, especially with the core game statement by gamefreak. I dont want to see that again personally.
Some of the statements we got in english were the exact opposite of what Gamefreak officially said or where outright untrue which really gave the wrong idea about LGPE. That being our first reveal and impression was incredibly self destructive.
