Tuesday announcement will be worldwide

So that rules out a few possibilities. Rather, all of them aside from anything that pertains to gen 6. There has been only one worldwide announcement in the entire history of the 16-year old franchise, and that was for BW2. So clearly we're not dealing with a spin-off announcement, or an event, or something minor. This is going to be huge, that much I can guarantee. (If you want to change your vote on the poll, you can always do so, it's not like I can tell...)

  1. Really the only question left to ask is whether it'll be just Gen6 in general (Like, it exists. Here are the names of the games. It will be out around this time), or will it be an actual Pokemon(s). Probably the latter.

    1. Watch, it'll be PokePark3. Because the ENTIRE WORLD needs to know about it!

    2. Yeah, my money's on the Pokémon that will co-star in the Genesect movie.

    3. Watch it be that all eeveelution evolve in gen 6 because we don't have enough of those. Would make sense sadly being something to do with evolution...

    4. Are Jolteon, DW Espeon, and Vaporeon (Umbreon to an extent) not enough in terms of the good ones? The bad ones do not need any more, either. Really, I like only Jolteon of the Eeveelutions...

      Also, I need not change my vote because I applied simple common sense...

    5. Their stat totals are already close to the cap. It's just not happening.

    6. If there is going to be a new Eeveelution, then it better be dragon-type. It feels really incomplete without the last of the (no longer)special-based types. I can see it now...Drageon!...terrible.

    7. Jolteon is good enough as Jolteon without becoming in the category of Volcarona and Arcanine. Also, do we REALLY need more Eeveelutions? I do not think so. Maybe Flareon should improve its situation as much as it can (woo, low NU to slightly higher NU) first. Maybe focus on the Pokemon that really need the evolution (Jynx, Sudowoodo, Farfetch'd, Altaria, Chatot, etc)...

  2. Well, I'm excited. I'd be happy if gen 5 is short, I honestly feel less-connected to it than any previous generation. I can't put my finger on why, but I'm just saying I'll be happy when the next generation walks in the door.

    1. ...maybe you're starting to grow out of Pokémon as a whole? I can't think of any logical reason for what you're suggesting, and it seems neither can you.

    2. I don't think so. I had a hell of a good time playing through BW2, and I'm enjoying the spin-offs more than ever lately. It was something about the style of the games, and I felt miffed for a while at how linear Unova seemed. Maybe I'm just becoming more aware of the formula, because most Pokemon games follow a similar, fairly linear pattern (Unova was more obvious, though. You're essentially going in a circle for most of the game. I don't like when you can tell where you'll be going next.). I'm just hoping the next generation will refresh my passion.

  3. (Exclamation of Surprise) At least...56% of the visitors...have some form of common sense...

    1. Okay, 64% if you insist. Point still stands that 17% are idiots, another 17% cannot face logic (there is a difference?), and one person is a sad victim of the percentages being rounded to the nearest whole number...or being bad at math since the actual estimates add up to 98%. I suck at math, and I was still able to come up with that...

  4. Why do I suddenly have the idea that whatever they announce will have some form of MMO feature?

    1. Even though the simulators do it without the overworld or the tedious training, and the other MMOs for Pokemon are crap, that would be awesome...

  5. Yep, it'll definitely be the first Gen VI Pokemon (or first two), they'll reveal that it co-stars in the Genesect movie, and then they'll announce that the first Gen VI games will be revealed in February or March.

  6. I just thought of something. With the whole DNA gimmick that X and Y will probably end up having, maybe Deoxys will have some role in this generation. It DID evolve from the DNA of a virus from outer space...somehow. Granted, they would not want Deoxys to overshadow Xerneas and Yveital...
