[Crimson_Blazer]

So since this news will be announced at 3 AM in my time zone i will have some wonderful news to wake up to tomorrow morning, here's hoping for gen 6

[MastersOfMonsters]

Ah, so, depending on which Pokémon the Twitter people wants the most, that Pokémon will be standing next to Iwata during the PD just for the lulz.

Neat~

"We don't have Pokémon in real life, but if you could, which Pokémon would you want by your side this week and why?"

... to me, this sounds like a hint towards walking Pokémon!

Arcanine or Rapidash, for travel convenience so I don't have to take the bus to uni.

I loved the walking Pokemon in HGSS, made wandering around more fun.

Since it is 10 mins it could potentially be a multi announcement or a lot of info so I have high hopes

[OrcaCity]

I'm jumping on the Gen VI train with everybody else. I really want it to be RSEmakes but it is way to "hypey" to just be remakes. OR they've opened the portal to the Pokemon world and traveling there is at an affordable cost!!!!!!!

[ShinyLucario]

Now you're thinking with portals.

From what I've seen, that's the most common interpretation. I hope it's correct, it was a nice feature.

[Bariokie]

Maybe lika said in a other thread: and also a post hers THE POKEMON ROBOTS

Maybe the R/S/E remakes has walking-pokemon-beside-you features like in HG/SS?

..."this week" is what kills me. <3

it stotally a hint to that! xD

...I think

[Manene!]

I'm sure a large-ish portion of the time will be dedicated to talking about past Pokemon games and how far the games have come since the 1st Generation. Then they'll probably talk about hopes for the future, which will lead into the big announcement.

And maybe another small announcement or two? Something like select Pokemon games (Pokemon Puzzle Challenge, TCG, & Pokemon Pinball) will be coming to the eShop in 2013?

As for the tweets, I wouldn't really put much stock into it. I mean, it's probably just some intern tweeting.

No..it will be for 6th Gen

[BCVM22]

No..it will be for 6th Gen

Statements like this are the problem.

[cascadethewarrior]

What if the announcement is just another side Pokemon game like the Mystery Dungeon series, Pokemon Conquest etc. and not one of the main series games?

[Manene!]

No..it will be for 6th Gen

I know, but there could also be other, smaller announcements too.

Why on Earth would Junichi Masuda be involved then?

[Zero38]

*sticks out tongue at you*

But still. :P

Oh thank you

anyways, I'm probably the only one thinking of it this way, but after all this fuss, this has to be more than just a next gen announcement. :/ there's no need for all of this, it's not like pokemon is selling more or is getting more popular than before to hype this announcement like this.

[P-K-M]

What if the announcement is just another side Pokemon game like the Mystery Dungeon series, Pokemon Conquest etc. and not one of the main series games?

I don't think they would create this worldwide hype for that...

[R_N]

What if the announcement is just another side Pokemon game like the Mystery Dungeon series, Pokemon Conquest etc. and not one of the main series games?

if it is, it's the first time they've ever bothered announcing side games world wide (and on a ND, no less)

[Ver-mont]

I wouldn't be sure. We're close to the reveal day, everyone is hyped and they know it. And these questions seem too out of the blue to be just random tweets.

At least that's what I think and hope.

Why would the president of Nintendo waste his time announcing those spin-offs most people don't even care about?

[xXPantheraXx]

Gamefreak doesn't work on the side games, and considering this gathering more Hype, Promo and attention then most Main Series titles that have been released, there's not even a .00000001% chance of that happening.
