Pokémon Blog or Something : Shitty Gen XVII Speculation, pre-Gen VIII

3 Aralık 2017 Pazar

Gen XVII:

Console: Tentatively Nintendo Switch's successor's successor's successor's successor. As Switch's fate as a handheld remains dubious, I am going to put this as tentative.
Year: 2046-2047. 2046 is if Switch is released in 2017. 2047 is if Nintendo has a real successor to 3DS in 2018.
Location basis: From most likely to least likely:

Hong Kong: Major Nintendo region, Hong Kong should become one of the world's largest economies at this point.
South Africa: Major Nintendo region.
Sri Lanka: Another GO region. Expect Tamil Tigers.
Macau: Not a Nintendo region, but part of Greater China.

Dex structure. Either around 80 Pokémon and 20 new forms, or a 90-100 new species. There will almost certainly going to be new means of providing de-facto counterparts to Gen I Pokémon, whether they are new species that are successors to existing ones, or a new idea spun off regional variants.
New field move: Another non-elemental field move, though this one might not be as meta-defining as previous ones, just a group of insta-buffs.
Less forms, more variants:At this point onward, species with existing form changes should have more forms in addition to existing ones, similar to Digimon's recolors.
Anything else?: EV and IV system should be streamlined, with the abolishment of EV and IV related items(Vitamins, Wings, Bottle Caps, Power Items etc.) All major EV and IV changes should be handled in a separate menu now.
