Pokemon New Announcement

[Fynn]

All that would seriously upset the balance of things, though. The fighting/psychic/dark trio aren't as versatile as fire/water/grass

[Jinx]

Last gen they did Fire/Psychic - Water/Dark - Grass/Fighting. I'd love to see them make the secondary types go backwards so that all starters will be vulnerable to each other. That would make it more interesting.

To Fynn: So? You have like 15 other games where you can play around with all that. Does anyone seriously get excited to see what the next grass starter will be? They're all virtually the same and inferior to the original trio, with the notable exception of Greninja.

To Jinx: Yes, that was cool and more of what I'd like to see.

[Fynn]

Yes, I am excited to see the next fire starter, thank you very much

Still waiting on the day I get a 3DS Pokemon that allows me to have a pokemon follow behind me. >

So, speculation on Sun/Moon:

Amiibo functionality?

They could put in an "amiibo stadium". You go there, use your amiibo, and it puts them in the game as a trainer that you get to fight, with Pokemon based on their design and themes. As you fight them more and more, they get higher level Pokemon, more Pokemon, their team evolves, better items, etcetera. All of this data can be saved to the amiibo, so you can then have your friends challenge your higher leveled favorite amiibo.

Rosalina gets Fairy types, baby pokemon, and those inspired by celestial objects. Starting with a Cleffa and Igglybuff, getting a Togepi. Her Pokemon evolve. She picks up a Jirachi, etcetera.

Kirby starts with Munchlax and Gulpin, and grabs a Bonsly (stone transformation and mimic Pokemon) and a Ditto later.

Little Mac gets Tyrogue and Machop.

Captain Falcon gets Hawlucha, Fletchling, Rufflet, etcetera.

Robin gets an Eevee, a Rayquaza, an Arceus, etcetera.

Corrin gets a Palkia, a Kyurem (varies between White and Black because of Conquest/Birthright), and more.



Then we get to non-Smash amiibo.

Tom Nook gets Meowth (Pay Day) and Cofagrigus (attracted to gold and consumes grave robbers) and basically Pokemon centered around money.

K. K. Slider gets Meloetta, Kricketune, and music themed Pokemon.

Chibi-Robo has Magnetite, Klink, and Steel/Electric types.



Honestly, these write themselves!

What no Hitmonchan for Little Mac? I thought that would be obvious.
