Generation VI should be announced soon (that is, within two months) if you look at the franchise as a whole. That's why I would personally find it odd if the Eevee promotion were completely unrelated, although admittedly there is no evidence of a connection.Quote:

What? Why would a new Pokémon have anything to do with B2W2?Quote:

Therefore, any pokemon unveiled would, I believe, have to be in B2W2. But again, this is just my opinion.Quote:

More recently, Zoroark and Zorua were revealed just five months after HGSS' release. It's already been five months since B2W2's Japanese release.
Yes this is true, but my opinion is valid regardless of past actions by those responsible for the Pokemon games, anime, TCG and mangas. Despite past instances of early releases of Pokemon, I believe there won't be a new release for a while. Or that at least it would have already been debuted. But once again, this is only my opinion. Not fact, I may be wrong. But it does it really matter whether I am or not? I just wanted to post my opinion. I really thought people would just read and say "yeah, I could see how that might be possible. I may not agree with it, but I could see that".
Let me say however, I would love a new evolution though. I was originally going to ask how they might evolve Eevee. We've gotten three Stone Evolutions, two Friendship/Time-based Evolutions and two Location Evolutions. How would the next possible Eeveelutions evolve? By trade? Held item level up? Trade while holding an item? Location in the new games? Will new Evolutionary Stones be introduced? What do you think?
But you didn't really explain your opinion. I was confused by your first post since you just mentioned B2W2.Quote:

I think that it would either evolve by learning a new move, or by reaching some quota of a new mechanic not unlike Friendship (which is used for Umbreon and Espeon's method depending on the time of day). What I have in mind is a measure of the synergy between two Pokémon in the same party.Quote:

The prediction is for Gen VI to be released alongside the supposed Genesect movie of 2013, Eeveelutions are on the paper going by the standard of even number generations. I was too lead to believe (anybody would) that the hype they're giving Eevee were to result in something related to the main series games, after all, the common misconception is that everything that's not the main series games serve as advertisement solely for the main series games, rather than for the franchise as a whole...Quote:

Ugh wow we were trolled with that one >.< figures it would be something like them all together. I still dont get all the Eevee hype though, who knows. There's still a slim possibility of a new Gen 6 Eeveelution being revealed, though I wont be surprised if nothing at all happens. Gen 6 is bound to be on it's way eventually. Maybe not soon, but that dosent mean we can't see a Gen 6 Pokemon before then.
Oh please... not another eeveelution... ;_;
But if there is one, then I guess it's possible there's going to be a new Gen6 game in another region, and not the RSE remakes...
Another misleading promotion. What a surprise. At least they're consistent.
I suppose, but they're going completely overboard with it in a generation where Eevee doesn't have anything new about it. That, and their timing is off if Generation VI is going to be announced around the end of the Unova League. If Generation VI is going to feature new evolutions of older Pokémon, then the anime portraying Virgil's Eevee as a Pokémon that doesn't need to evolve would go against that approach. Granted, Virgil and Eevee might turn out to be recurring characters in the remainder of Best Wishes, in which case Eevee could evolve later on.Quote:
