Nintendo: Major Pokemon Announcement Coming Next Week

Serebii are reporting that Junichi Masuda, head of the main Pokémon studio Game Freak, will appear on the Japanese TV show Pokémon Smash on Sunday 18th September to reveal a new Pokemon game. Things are definitely getting interesting with Nintendo’s 3DS press conference on Tuesday and the Tokyo Game Show on Thursday. Any guesses as to what the Pokemon game will be?

    1. I think it’s a little too soon for it to be Grey, considering it’s only been one year since B/W came out. Personally, I think it will be another game like Battle Revolution or something similar, especially since they already have all of the models made for the new Pokemon.

    1. I don’t thnk there will be a Pokemon gray remake. I read it some were, it will be only black and white. Hopefully a whole new remake of red and blue for 3DS because they only made the remake for gba

  1. Pokemon Grey, a sequel to White and Black. I’m (obviously) thinking this will be different from the other Pokemon games.

    Also: First?

    1. bash you? emerald was one of my favorite (if not favorite, so hard to chose) pokemon games. theres a good chance remakes of them will come, too.

  2. i’m placing my bets on a ruby/sapphire remake on 3DS, a pokemon battling game on Wii or Wii U, pokemon grey, or oh god if its pokemon stadium 3D i’ll cry with excitement!

  3. YAY!! really hope its a pokemon ruby/saphire remake, as long as its like emerald (which it will, much like hg/ss were more like crystal). i wouldnt imagine a pokemon “grey” since they would have to remake the region of black and white for the 3ds, or make it for ds (which i really hope not, i want that 3D!!!!). if its a brand new pokemon game with new pokemon that would blow me away, since a new generation just started not even a year ago. all in all im very excited for this announcment and cant wait until tuesday. NINTENDO FOR LIFE!!!!

  4. “We are announcing that the Pokemon series has come to an end. No more games. Problem?”

    But seriously, I’m sure it’ll either be Grey, Remakes, or a new game.

  5. First!!!! And maybe Pokemon Gray? Doubt it, because they haven’t revealed Keldeo or the other one. Maybe a Pokemon Snap? Or a 3D pinball game? Or perhaps even a Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire remake. It could be the remake, but Diamond and Pearl came out, then Platinum, and then Heartgold and Soulsilver. It wouldn’t be Pokemon Black and White, then Ruby/Sapphire, then Gray.

    1. even if they made gray, it could go black/white, then ruby saphire remakes, then gray. on the gba, correct me if im wrong, didnt it go ruby/saphire, then leafgreen firered, and then emerald?

  6. I don’t really know… Game Freak doesn’t really have major announcements… Everyone is expecting “Grey” or something similar, but I don’t think it would be that. I wouldn’t be surprised if it is a new Mystery Dungeon. Maybe it is that Pokemon Card DS Game… I would love it if it was Pokemon Snap 3DS!

    1. imagine a brand new pokemon game, and within that region, there is a park where you can play a pokemon snap minigame that was just like the original but brand new? you could move your 3ds around like you are taking the picture. that would be a great way for gamefreak to utilize the 3ds’ other functions

    2. Pokemon 3D Pinball with gyro controls would be sweet… Or even addition to the Pokedex 3D like more Regions and shiny sprites, or maybe Pokemon TCG cars that work with the AR feature and actual Pokemon battles on someones desk… Or maybe Pokemon Stadium 3D with AR feature and Pokedex 3D integration

  7. Pokemon Purple and Indigo Special edition? :p my random guesses.

    Now I can’t wait to see what it is! Why are there so many things to wait for. Wii U, 3DS games, My anticipated Movies, and now this.

  8. It needs to be a pokemon game to end pokemon games!!! one more color which will be endless amount of battles, pokemon catching, and badges earned!!! Throughout the years, every pokemon game that has ever came out has been short, this one can have years worth of things to do, sort of like going back to the past from yellow, red, blue versions to now all jam pact into one game

  9. Pokemon Grey or a Ruby and Sapphire remake but I doubt the Ruby and Sapphire remakes will be on the DS. It would be cool it future Pokemon games were in full 3D like Colosseum and XD Gale of Darkness when they come to the 3DS.

  10. Either Pokemon Grey or the Ruby/Sapphire remakes using the models from Pokedex 3D.
    Either those or Pokemon Stadium 3 or Pokemon Snap 2.

  11. Pokemon Wind and Rain editions!
    or Pokemon Sea and Sky!
    Or maybe they’ll hit the periodic table:
    announcing Pokemon Hydrogen and Helium!
    :)

    1. How close-minded. I agree that they’re probably getting a liiiiiittle carried away with the number of pokemon, but everyone has favorites in every generation (mine in Emerald). And where’s the challenge in only 150 pokemon?

  12. Wouldn’t it be pretty sick if there was a pokemon RPG in the style that we know & love, but in complete 3D?? 3D as in… FF7 or Super Mario Brothers, not like 3DS.

      1. You mean like Pokèmon Stadium or Gale of Darkness. Tru, they didn’t have traditional storylines of Pokemon games, but they were RPG’s and with 3D models.

  13. We know Grey/TerraRuby/MarinaSapphire are basically confirmed so I hope it’s a different game. Pokemon Snap 2 or Pokemon Stadium 3 would be awesome.

  14. I really hate the new 3D style that was in Black and White… I need to accept that we won’t get normal graphics games for Pokemon again (the style of r/s/e/fr/lg was perfect)

  15. If it’s a main Pokemon games, then I bet it’ll be for both the DS and 3DS. They would not abandon all those DS gamers out there just like that, but the 3DS version would look better and would have more features, including streetpass/spotpass evens, maybe new/exclusive areas, etc. If there’s one game that sells systems, then it’s Pokemon.

  16. I think it will be a 3ds game that uses those 3d cards. when you battle you use the cards as pokeballs and you can train in 3d watch your pokemon grow. i’ve been thinking about this ever since the first pokemon game came out

  17. pokemon justin beiber and rebecca black version? :) lol idk but what ever it is, 3ds sales are going to skyrocket when its released

  18. this pokemon shit r stupid always with a new game every 5 or 6 months waste of money i did play pokemon games but with this 2 games a year to much n this news is a 3ds pokemon game wow

    1. There is a new proper pokemon game every 1 year!

      Your talking about the other non proper ones like pokemon snap and pokemon dungeon. There not gamefreak.

      1. Anonymous: Why dont you shut up moron? There’s barely any games on the 3ds, so why not release one on the 3ds? And watch your language 13 year old kid. You probabaly failed Elementary school 8 times. And if you dont like the series, I would Consider not buying it.

  20. Either it will be a new game like Pokemon “Rainbow” or something… A side game, maybe it will be an MMO for Wii U! That would be cool!

  21. Hmmm… its waaayyy too early for a Ruby/Sapphire remake, and Pokemon Grey is pretty logical, but I don’t think any of those games will be announced. I think Grey might come out early next year, imo. But here’s hoping to Pokemon Snap 2! The camera on the 3DS + AR cards + New pokemon sprites (Pokedex 3D) = pure win.

  22. I’m hoping for Grey or Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald remakes. I just hope its not just the apparent Mewtwo event. Announce them both GameFreak!!

    1. But if you die, you won’t be able to play it.

      Based on everything that’s been said and whats been done before, my guess is Pokemon Black and White… 3D. You all know you will buy it again for your 3DS.

  23. I highly doubt this is happening, the only thing that’ll be announced for sure next week is a mewtwo distribution… As pokebeach.com states
    Note: Many sites are reporting that Junichi Masuda is revealing a new Pokemon game next week, but there is no factual basis for this. The mistake came from sites misinterpreting the episode summary on Pokemon Smash’s website early yesterday, which states the “latest game information” will be revealed on September 18th’s episode. Many took that to be news of a new game. But then after yesterday’s episode actually aired, it became obvious that next week’s episode summary is simply referring to the Mewtwo distribution that Mr. Masuda will detail. There could be a game announcement since Mr. Masuda rarely comes on the show, but at this time there is simply no evidence to suggest it.

  25. I think pokemon game where you could explore all the regions, get all the badges, go to all the battle frontiers, and of course catch all the pokemon would be pretty sweet. It would be a pretty big game to make though.

  28. It better not be Hoenn remakes. Those were the weakest Pokemon games in my opinion. It will either be Pokemon Grey or Pokemon Snap 3DS.

  30. Pokemon Ultra edition!
    Where you can play through every region, play through every gym and find every pokemon ever!
    Starting with the kanto region.

  32. Hopefully AquaSapphire and MagmaRuby, as many have stated. And I wouldn’t be surprised if they released info on Grey, seeing as Black and White got announced less than a year after HeartGold and SoulSilver were released =/ But you never know.

    The Pinball, Ranger, Mystery Dungeon, Snap, Stadium, Colosseum/XD:GoD…Trozei (lol) etc. etc Franchises are were and are NOT made my Game Freak, so I doubt he’ll be making an announcement about any games of those sorts. Only the Color/Jewel themed handheld series was developed by Game Freak.

    Also, please do take heed:

    “Many sites are reporting that Junichi Masuda is revealing a new Pokemon game next week, but there is no factual basis for this.
