It's an RPG, it's a UsefulNotes/NintendoGameCube game, it has really good graphics and awesome music...

* So, the reasoning behind [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]] is pretty obvious. The Sonic series has a kind spot in Chugga's heart since day one, with Sonic 2 being his very first video game ever and so forth (quote needed, but I know he talked about it in one video). So it is not only a game series he loves with it's flaws (such as the glaring flaw of [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006 Sonic Next Gen]] as a whole, except possibly the music), it would be fitting that after five years of LPing, he picks up a game of this series - especially since it fits the hints so well (a platformer that's non-Nintendo and non-first party). My guess would be [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure Sonic Adventure DX]], because since it's on the [[UsefulNotes/NintendoGameCube GameCube]], it's no longer first party, fitting the bill perfectly.

* At least this, or it's remaster, ''Unfolded''. He's praised games like ''Okami'' and such for their artstyle. Granted, it's not a Nintendo game, but ''Okami'' was ported to the UsefulNotes/PlayStation3. So it might be fair game to assume this.

* So far, Chuggaa stated that the LP will be a revisit of a series he hasn't done an LP of in a while, is not an RPG, and is playable on the UsefulNotes/Nintendo3DS. These games fit all the criteria since the last time Chuggaa did an LP of a Zelda game was ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaLinksAwakening'' in 2013, the Zelda games are action-adventure games, not [=RPGs=], and Ocarina of Time was remade for the [=3DS=] while the Oracle games are available on the system's virtual console.

[[WMG:Emile will turn on Challenge Mode for the final Pokémon League rematch in ''VideoGame/PokemonBlack2AndWhite2'']]
He said in episode 94 that he plans to save the League rematch for the very end, so the more challenging teams would make a better finale.

I suspect he will skip the original ''VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon'', much like how he played ''Emerald'' and ''Platinum'' instead of ''Ruby/Sapphire'' or ''Diamond/Pearl''. Wishiwashi fits Emile's trend of using "handicap" Pokémon like Slaking and Archeops.

* Chuggaaconroy has mentioned on his Twitter in the past that he actually quite likes ''Yo-kai Watch'', despite him considering it a flawed game. Not only that, but keep in mind the term "Something new". This obviously hints at a series that he hasn't done before, so ''Mario'', ''Legend of Zelda'' and ''Pokemon'' are out of the picture. It's also worth mentioning that the game is filled to the brim with Japanese mythology references. So, if it's the "Wackiest idea for an LP he's ever done", ''Yo-kai Watch'' may be a good contender. And if we go off of the {{Widget Series}} WMG, and the idea of the main enemy being a cephalopod, it's worth mentioning [[spoiler: the final boss of Yo-kai Watch is also an octopus-inspired being.]]

* He ''is'' a self-admitted Laytonholic, having imported a European 3DS just to play [[VideoGame/ProfessorLaytonAndTheAzranLegacy Azran Legacy]] early. On top of this, he's even toyed with the idea of doing a Professor Layton LP before- while he initially dismissed it due to not knowing how to make an LP of what is, basically, a visual novel entertaining, the rise of [=LPers=] (i.e., Lucahjin and [[LetsPlay/NintendoCapriSun NCS]]) making successful [[Franchise/AceAttorney Ace Attorney]] [=LPs=] lends some precedent to the idea, and, let's face it, if anyone could make it entertaining, it's Chugga. What really clinches it, though, is the "wackiest idea for an LP yet" hint- not only is ''VideoGame/ProfessorLayton'' a WidgetSeries as is, but, as aforementioned, he was tentative to play it due to concern over how well it would translate to an LP- making for one wacky let's play idea.

** Alternatively, ''VideoGame/XenobladeChroniclesX.'' Emile's hesitations about playing this was waiting for a Switch port, but considering that Monolith has been busy with Xenoblade 3 and Tears of the Kingdom, the likelihood of this is... unfortunately low. Considering the impending death of the WiiU Eshop, this may be the time to show it off.

to:

* The longer he goes without revealing the final member, the more {{Jossed}} this feels, but Tangrowth was also very subtly foreshadowed in episode 47, when Chugga encountered a Foongus in the hidden grotto on route 13 and said that it wasn't the Pokemon he was hoping to encounter there (the other options being Tangela and the already-Jossed Skorupi). That episode was recorded before the ScheduleSlip, so it's entirely possible that Chugga got his hidden ability Tangrowth in the intervening month.

[[WMG: If it's not Drapion, then it has to be Tangrowth.]]
* First off, the team still needs a mon with high physical defense, as outlined above, which will especially be key for Drayden, whose dragons are all physical attackers (except for Flygon who has Earth Power). Tangrowth especially can bypass the party-shuffling effects of Dragon Tail by using Ingrain to stay in the field.
* Furthermore, the gym after that is Marlon, whose whole team is bulky Water types who could take a hit from [=McFly=] and easily KO him right back, which necessitates Chugga to have another mon super effective on Water as backup (and also rules out the other mon with high physical defense available in this part of the game, Gliscor)
* Offensively, Tangrowth is a pretty great mixed attacker, which gives it more versatility than the excellent StoneWall Ferrothorn that Chugga already passed up.
* Finally, Chugga is well aware of the BreakingOldTrends nature of this playthrough, so his lack of a poison type is likely deliberate, meaning he probably won't bring in an Amoonguss as yet another ChekhovsGunman.

** Also supporting this hypothesis is the fact that Blaise's team currently lacks a solid physical StoneWall (mostly sporting mons with general bulk but middling actual defenses, or Aidan), and physical defense is Drapion's best stat

Added DiffLines:

[[WMG: Chugga's sixth team member in White 2 will be Drapion.]]
* Chugga has always used a Poison type in every mainline Pokemon game (Venusaur in [=FireRed=], Weezing in Crystal, Tentacruel in Emerald, Crobat in Platinum, Garbodor in White), since it's his favorite type. Unless he's doing what he did with Harmony again and saving the reveal for later after having already caught it, there are three options left before postgame: Amoonguss, Seviper, and Drapion. Since he just brought Harmony into the team after a discussion of how he prefers to space his teammates out, it's not likely he'll pick Amoonguss, since it's found on the very next route. Additionally, if he wanted it he could have already grinded for a Regenerator one in the Route 5 grotto. As for Seviper, he's historically been unkind to it in his bios, so it's doubtful that he'll give it a chance this time. That leaves Drapion as the only remaining option. Supporting this is the fact that he doesn't have a counter to Psychic types yet, only having Signal Beam on Aidan at the moment. Drapion would fill this niche perfectly, unlike the other two options. Finally, its only weakness is Ground, and it's only available after the game's Ground-type specialist has already been dealt with, so there's no issue of introducing it just before a battle it would do poorly in.

* Chugga generally doesn't use the same Pokemon across playthroughs (I think the only times he did were Arcanine in Fire Red and Crystal and Espeon in Crystal and Colosseum, though that gets a pass because Colosseum starts you with Espeon regardless), and he likes to have a wide range of type coverage. He's already used Espeon and Umbreon in Colosseum, so they're out. He has his Elekid, so no Jolteon (and he also used it before). Glaceon and Leafeon are locked behind postgame and I don't think he's going to wait that long. Pignati is the starter and is a fire type, so I doubt he'd use Flareon, and Sylveon doesn't exist yet. That leaves us with Vaporeon.

The finale of Paper Mario says that after fulfilling some videos that haven't come out yet, the next project is "the thing that, oh, I'm pretty sure you want the most right now." So it's likely something that's been speculated/hyped up for a while now.

[[WMG:Prior to LP #48, Kirby Fighters will finally be shown off!]]
Chuggaa was unable to show off the mode during the ''Triple Deluxe'' LP due to COVID meaning he couldn't do local multiplayer. However, now that the pandemic has waned down, it's highly likely he's been able to record this, especially since there's been TRG recordings again. He mentioned in the Paper Mario finale that he plans to be "fulfilling some videos that haven't come out yet," and this seems like a prime fit.
