Figured this was notable enough for its own thread seeing as it's very likely it's Gen 8.
I'm really hoping Gen 8 delivers. Sun & Moon were very underwhelming.
Edit: Gen 8 is on boys.

Same feeling about Sun and Moon. First Pokemon games I couldn't finish. Miss gyms and miss larger teams of Pokemon for npc trainers. That said I can't wait to see what Gen 8 is going to bring to the table

I am on the other side, Sun and Moon as the best pokemon since heartgold soulsilver. A very charismatic game,very creative too.
Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon can get out tho

I was so excited about the region in Sun & Moon... and disappointed with what they did not do. Was the first game in the series I didn't even bother getting past the beginning of the intro.

I enjoyed Sun and Moon as they felt really fresh. The only issue I had was the region felt very small. I just hope we get a post-game on the level of the DS era games this time. I'm still disappointed on how incomplete X and Y felt.

I hope they keep the focus on characters that they had in Sun and Moon. I actually give a shit about Hau, Gladion, and Lillie. I couldn't tell you anything about the "friends" from X and Y except "one of them dances, one kid is generic smart, everyone is hideously stupid for not realizing the leader of Team Flare is the guy who dresses just like them".
Speaking of teams, Team Skull should be the new gold standard.

Speaking of teams, Team Skull should be the new gold standard. I do agree on Team Skull but for the friends... Being completely honest I don't think there is a single character in this franchise I've hated more than Hau. I just found him such an insufferable doofus who never wanted to shut up and was so insistent on being your BFF that I didn't find him at all likable. Although really I think more than anything that comes down to a mix of 1), being REALLY sick of the friendly rivals in general and 2), how obtrusive Sun & Moon's story is. It's not that awful on a first playthrough but on the second I was begging the game to just shut up and let me play it already.

I didn't like Sun and Moon.
I liked thr Hawaii type setting but thr world was too small and i hated the change from traditional gyms.
None of the new Pokemon were thst memorable. Im trying bjt failing to remember any.

I like Sun and Moon but I couldn't finish ultra sun or moon if my life depended on it. Me personally, I prefer black/whites and x/y over Sun and Moon.

Anyway, my predictios.
1. Another update to Go. 2. A Johto version for Let's Go. 3. The official Generation 8 entry is announced.
The last two may seem like overkill, but I think it's to cater to two different audiences; casuals and competitives.

Given they say it's "roughly 7 minutes" of new information, there's no way they'd get that much stuff in unless they showed basically nothing for any of them.

The Go update would probably be about trainer battles or when Gen 5 Pokemon are coming. Let's Go would just show about 1:30 of footage because it'd largely be the same game just now with Gen 2 critters roaming about. It's the third one that'd get the lion's share.

There's not been a good mainline Pokemon game since Black and White (not counting remakes). I HATED X and Y and thought Sun and Moon was better but I would not call it a good. It was just ok at best.
I would not have any chance for Gen 8 but I enjoyed Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee, so that gives me a glimmer of hope. This is of course if the announcement is Gen 8.

-Pokémon Smash Amiibo release date, or window -Some sort of update for Let’s Go! -Teaser announcement with brief gameplay footage of Gen 8
That’s my predictions
EDIT: Pichu, Inciniroar, Ivysaur and Squirtle is what we need for Amiibo’s I think. Plus, a Pokémon Trainer if that’s getting one as well.
EDIT 2: Maybe they have a Switch port of Detective Pikachu coming? It’d make sense with the movie coming soon

Sun & Moon were the first game to get my attention since GoldSilver and they were bloody ace.

Well then, guess I was not paying attention to the last Direct.

Won't you all feel foolish when most of the Direct is dedicated to the HD sequel to Pokemon Snap.

We already have trainer battles in Go That I already know. I'm talking about any potential additions or changes to that system we could be seeing in future patches or updates to the application.
