I don't think we should be reading too much into that part. I think this will be the development of the city.People seem to have modern clothes in trailer.
Thank you for repeatedly acknowledging best pokemonthe people are ready for furfrou
By the way, aren't the taxis in Lumiose literally the only passenger cars we've ever seen in the games? Otherwise it's just been stuff like trains, planes, boats, trucks, etc. i.e. vehicles for moving tons of people long distances or transporting cargo. Because like, why would you have a car when you could just ride your Pokémon around. The only roads we've ever seen were, like, highways in and out of shipping hubs like Castelia. Otherwise it's all walking paths and dirt roadsNah, Luminose planners are just making a walkable city and saying no to car-based city planning!
Now all they need is trains and this game will be number one with urbanist YouTuber community!
I am thinking it may (and I stress MAY) be the latter, looking at the page where it has the Lumiose City covered in tape it says redevelopment as in working on something that already exist to either make it better than what we know Lumiose city as or to become what we know it as now.I'm hoping this isn't necessarily another ancient game with the same battle/catching mechanics as Arceus but rather Legends becomes the name for more experimental games
Maybe but it needs more than thatThey could monstrum nox it.
Me personally I would love to go into a dark alley and get beat up by a gang of PangoroI doubt Pokemon will attack you in this one, unless Lumiose starts out as a barren wasteland
Little Timmy goes on a walk in the park only to be obliterated by a level 90 Mega Salamance careening down from the heavens at 900 miles per hourCould you imagine just trying to get a cup of coffee in the morning and having to deal with a Hawlucha jumping off a building to slam into you
Hope you enjoy them, I personally liked them a lot!I've not played X or Y, so I'll have to consider giving them a go based on how this game looks. Might fill the Pokémon-shaped hole this Christmas for me if so.
I got back into the series with Pokémon X myself (fell out of gaming and thus skipped the DS-era of the series), so I have a huge soft-spot for it and Gen 6 as a whole. The story is weak, but I think the game as a whole is more enjoyable that most fans give it credit for.I've not played X or Y, so I'll have to consider giving them a go based on how this game looks.

I think it's gonna become kind of an anthology series, where the common thread is maybe "familiar regions, unfamiliar time periods/contexts", a space for Gamefreak to get weirder and less formulaic than they usually would with the main games and try some ideas out before deciding whether they're a good fit to become mainstay mechanicsI'm hoping this isn't necessarily another ancient game with the same battle/catching mechanics as Arceus but rather Legends becomes the name for more experimental games
There's a car in the garage of the players home in Ultra Sun and Moon that when interacted with says it belongs to your father, and that your mother brought it with her to Alola so she could use it to run errands. Which is funny because the house is on a dirt path right within walking distance of the nearest city. In a region that consists of a series of small islands that you have to take a ferry between.By the way, aren't the taxis in Lumiose literally the only passenger cars we've ever seen in the games?

nice ring to it
Ah gotcha, never actually played USUM. Yeah that's dumb lol, they had a good (but possibly unintentional) worldbuilding thing going with vehicles for a second thereThere's a car in the garage of the players home in Ultra Sun and Moon that when interacted with says it belongs to your father, and that your mother brought it with her to Alola so she could use it to run errands.

The trailer music was SO good, I've been listening to it all day long!The first Legends game was a January release, right?
I kinda liked that trailer music.
Definitely a solid chance there'll still be a smaller scale Pokemon project this year. Also possible they'll focus all their efforts on the new online TCG.I was also wondering if you all think there's a chance that a smaller remake or a spinoff game of some sort still will be releasing for Pokemon this year?
Sword & Shield had fully evolved trade evolutions in the wild area, just another reason why those games were incredible.One of the best parts of Legends is that you can evolve all Pokémon and complete the Pokedex without trading. PLZA seemingly will be the same, since there's just one version.
Legends is basically Pokémon for those of us who are old and tired, I love it so much.
Agreed, I think people could be judging too soon in being centered around Lumiose city being a bad thing. (If such is to be the case)This is so much more exciting than any other announcement they could have made. Legends is awesome and my favourite Pokémon game since Sun and Moon, so I’ve got high hopes. I always found Kalos to be the most lacking region as well, so it’s great to see them returning to it to expand on it and provide some much needed development.
I think the reason they announced it now is they're not entirely sure when it'll come out. Something that jumped out to me is that while BDSP said "late 2021", Arceus said "early 2022", and Scarlet/Violet said "late 2022" in their respective reveal trailers, Legends Z-A just said "2025". My hunch is they're hoping to get it out early-to-mid 2025, but are intentionally leaving themselves wiggle room to push it back as far as holiday 2025 without having to actually delay it publicly. Possibly another indicator that TPC/Gamefreak are taking the feedback seriously and really are gonna start giving the games more time to cook rather than stick to an unbending scheduleI'm still catching up so I'm sorry if this has already been brought up but I have been thinking about the release date a lot today (mainly because I can't wait to play the game HAHAHAHA)!! I know a lot of people do think it's Holiday 2025 but, if that is the case, I do wonder why they'd announce it so early? We've seen them skip Pokémon Day in 2017, 2018, and 2020 so I don't think having something huge end a Presents is necessarily the reason why it was announced now? I feel like if if was Holiday next year, it could've been in the later year Presents that we've been getting in recent years because I feel like now, they probably have to do a trailer in August for it? I'm not really sure if this makes sense but part of me is thinking maybe it's a late Q1 or a Q2 release next year (March to June)? I'm not sure if I'm off base with that, however?
I was also wondering if you all think there's a chance that a smaller remake or a spinoff game of some sort still will be releasing for Pokemon this year? For ORAS and Let's Go Generation 1, they announced this in May of the years they came out so I think there's a chance, especially if they outsourced it! I could also see a spinoff being announced in a June/July Nintendo Direct, similar to how they re-revealed Detective Pikachu Returns during last year's June Direct! I just can't see TPCi not having anything Switch related this year when they've had a Switch game (mainline and/or spinoff) every single year of the console!!
I apologize for the longer message here but I was wondering what everyone's thinking about what the game would be releasing and when do you all think we'll get our first look at gameplay for it?
FF7 remake all takes place in Midgar for how popular of a location it is in the originalIt takes place entirely in a city. When have RPG cities ever been the highlight O_O.
Is that not kinda the Yakuza/Like A Dragon series' whole schtick?It takes place entirely in a city. When have RPG cities ever been the highlight O_O.
People love patterns. Freaks don't care. Especially Game Freaks.super funny how many people thought it was going to be something GEN5 considering all the black/white fan art I've seen today on twitter
I thought freaks loved patterns too, or what are we doing here?/sPeople love patterns. Freaks don't care. Especially Game Freaks.
Geeks do.I thought freaks loved patterns too.
