What's the likeliness of getting a gym leader with a modernist art theme? Whether it goes Cubist (Picasso) or Surrealist (Dali) is up to you :P

We already have La Sagrada Familia, so Gaudi's covered :P

Also long, long reply but:

Hell, technically, Gen I and II both were on the same system, depending on how you view the Gameboy and the Gameboy colour.

Actually you could 100% make the case that Gens 1 and 2 were on the same console if specifying just the debut titles because Gold and Silver are not GBC only games, they're Blackcart Gameboy Games, titles that could be played on an original DMG but if you popped it into a Gameboy Color it would play in... well, color. Pokemon Yellow also has a slight version of this feature and that's unambigiously Game Boy

Only Crystal was a true GBC exclusive

Hopefully the remaining Pokemon not on the Switch will be able to find their way in through this game. If there's one good thing about BDSP, it's that we got many of the Dexit victims on the Switch again. Hopefully the ones from Gens 5-7 (Especially the 5 and 6 starters and Meloetta) will get in.

Although one of the missing mons, Ducklett, is too similar to the water starter, so who knows?

I want either pokemon based on either the Salamander at Park Guell or the Dragon's back from Casa Batllo.

Could be a regional variant of Shelmet, maybe?

I wonder how much of Kalos will be referenced in this game, considering France actually borders Spain.

We need something with all of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh, and another something with Kalos, Galar and Poke-Iberia.

Why is the YMMV page locked until release? There doesn’t seem to be any issues with the page thus far.

Prolly either because its standard procedure or because the Dexit controversy left the mods not wanting to take any chances.

Can we at least wait until they announce something that will turn my Twitter timeline into an even greater clusterfuck like with Pokémon Sword and Shield? This seems a bit like the mods are jumping the gun a bit.

Is there any edit so important it can't wait?

There's always the locked pages thread if so

[up][up]You joke, but that's a real concern, especially since some people either don't know or don't care that there is a waiting period for that.

I'm certainly not surprised that a Tainted by the Preview entry was added. That's got to be one of those "Expect to see this when a YMMV page is created" things by now.

Fuecoco is surprisingly small, only 40 cm.

Also I think Quaxly's source of water is its hair.

Wouldn't it be surprising if Kalos is post-game content, kinda like how Kanto was in Gold/Silver/Crystal?

(Unlikely? Probably, but anything's possible these days.)

If there was a region to do that with it would be Kalos. Given there was outright content in Kalos that Game Freak never got to explore.

If they have an equivalent of Gibraltar in the game, they could also reference Galar, since Gibraltar is a British territory.

I think Kalos (and all the other existing regions) would be too jarring compared to th eopen-world nature of this region, unless it went through serious changes.

I severely doubt that Pokemon will ever do two regions the same way Johto did ever again.

It would be possible if traversing two new, smaller regions was the goal of a future game, though.

Gen 2 was like an Expansion Pack Sequel to Gen 1 in a lot of ways. The map in the early prototype version shows that the original plan was to make it cover the entirety of Japan, with Kanto massively reduced in size to the point that most of the cities blend together into a 'Tokyo'. Even in the final version, there's not a lot of emphasis on the newer monsters and the plot with Team Rocket is an outright continuation of Gen 1.

I just want to note that I specifically used "referenced" because I knew without it, people would take it in a Gen 2 way that I don't believe will happen.

I'm just wondering how much of stuff that's originally from the Kalos games might show up here.
