There's no way they'd make a game for a DS in 2013, Game Freak can't stay in the past forever.
But, who says a Pokémon Game on the 3DS couldn't connect to BWB2W2? There is already software on the 3DS (Dream Radar, or whatever it is called) that connects to B2W2, so there's always the possibility they could.
They might have to change the typing chart (poison/water), and to do that they'd have to stop battles between the two games.
Another thing to consider- Who said they have to be sequels? Why not prequels?
Ex. You go out as a young trainer (maybe like young Norman) and are all cool. Then you battle team rocket, but near the end of the game they split into two opposing factions and escape into the shadows. (Magma and Aqua)
It would also give us a chance to see Flannery's predecessor, a different elite four, and maybe even some pokemon made extinct by the time of Ruby/Sapphire.
No. Just no.Quote:

Linking Team Rocket with Teams Plasma and Aqua the way you did is just ridiculous, if you consider that Team Rocket can't disband nor split before the events of those games, since they happen at the same time as FRLG and by that time, TR is still around as one Team (and even when they disband at the end of HGSS, they don't split, they truly disband once and for all). I wouldn't mind a prequel to any of the already existing games, but not the way that you suggest, your ideas simply don't work.
... Why? There's no reason for them to up and change the type chart when it's been steady since gen II. There's also no reason for them to move RS remakes into a new generation just so they could change it- they could easily just hold off on it until gen VI.Quote:

Besides, I think part of the point of remakes is to be able to get previous-generation Pokemon onto the current game (like with FRLG and HGSS), and since the GBA and DS are quickly becoming more and more obsolete, it would just be more intelligent to do a remake. At least, that's just my opinion.
Id honestly rather have a remake of Hoenn. I can't really see how there would be a sequel of those games since the story is finished when you complete the games and nothing is really open ended like in BW. I prefer Hoenn how it was in RSE and would be fine with just a remake.
You're right. Hmm.... an original villainous team splitting would be better.Quote:

I did play the originals multiple times, and from my experience Norman's family moved there while he was at the gym already. Even if he did live in Johto, that doesn't rule out that he might have lived in Hoenn before he moved to Johto.
But still, Norman was just a name I threw out there. You could be Steven Stone or even Archie/Max depending on the version! Heeeeeeey...... >:D
Oh and @YamiiDenryuu take a look at this: http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/f323/summarizing-opinions-poison-type-against-water-type-140222/
Because Gamefreak is going to be basing major franchise decisions on a random thread on some fan forum, right? :/Quote:

What I meant was that was showing points on why they might do it, not that that would persuade them to do it.
Egh, I don't think that would be a good idea. All the nostalgia factor would go away. (Plus, if it were prequels then they wouldn't have to do memory link either.)
It would be nice to not only see Sinnoh evolutions, but just regular Sinnoh Pokemon. I can imagine having a Toxicroak on my team...
With the combination of B2/W2 and the Dream Radar... there are some missing legendary Pokemon (not including events) Maybe we will see them in the next set of games.
I
Mewtwo
Legendary Birds
II
Legendary Beasts
III
Weather Trio
They can put Shellos in as he was orignally going to be in Gen III... he would fit...Quote:

Groudon & Kyogre event in Japan
A new event has been announced for Japan. In Pokémon Centres across the country, you'll be able to receive Groudon or Kyogre in your games. If you have Black 2, you will be able to receive the Pokémon Groudon whereas if you have White 2, you will receive the Pokémon Kyogre. It is unknown if these events have anything special. They will run from November 21st 2012 to January 10th 2013
This is from Serebii on the Serebiiforums.
So does this mean no RS remakes or could they be toying with us to make us believe there won't be any.
They have no reason to trick us. If remakes were on the agenda for this generation, this event wouldn't be happening.Quote:
