It's been over a year since its release, though, so can't help but feel it is over.

Mewtwo getting reissued does suggest that one sold well, but Venusaur and Blastoise were still available with massive discounts until relatively recently (Venusaur especially). Charizard probably would have got a reissue if all the demand came during the initial orders, but it shelfwarmed for months after release before disappearing and then everyone decided they wanted one.

And Lucario's still pretty easy to get a hold of despite being ranked as one of the most popular Pokemon. So I doubt getting regular Blaziken instead of the Mega would have made much difference in the long run.

Transferred Pokemon are going to start being allowed in Ranked battles in ORAS starting on the 15th in one week.

The official site has posted about a press conference being held today about a future business strategy being held today, September 10th, at 15:00 JST (06:00 UTC, 07:00 BST, 02:00 EDT, 23:00 JST). This will be live streamed on the video platform NicoNico in Japan. On the NicoNico page, it states that new partner companies will be introduced. It's not currently known what this conference will contain but we'll bring the full details as it comes

Any ideas people?

That sounds pretty interesting. I honestly don't have much of a clue what could be announced. Gen 7, continuation of Gen 6, or perhaps another offshoot. I dunno.

[Klonoahedgehog]

I hope they announce a new game.

[Rocky505]

Even if a New Main Game isn't announced during this, we'll be getting info on the green blob and what is most likely Zygarde's alt forme in a few days from Corocoro.

Pokemon Go huh? Interesting, although I imagine it isn't what fans want, I think it's interesting just because they are teaming up with a western developer to do this AR thing.

Not interested. (Don't even have a smartphone anyway)

Call me when X/Y 2 finally get announced...

[Rocky505]

At least this Spin Off game can connect to the main games >_>

Here's the video announcement:

Pretty darn excited. I've really been enjoying mobile games as of late, and this is basically that Google April Fool's thing that was done some time back made into an actual game. If they integrate this with the 3DS games, even better!
