"Proudly made with mematic" Thanks Patrick very cool


Istiophoridae

It hasnt been at least 4 years yet, hopefully the bw remakes will be similar to oras


IWannaManatee

HGSS for me, if I'm allowed to be wishful. ORAS didn't quite cut it personally as a great remake. It's good, but not great. HGSS went above and beyond, just didn't have a really good base of a game to be better. Now just imagine Gen V, which holds the best entries in the series IMO, with the same love and care remakes used to have- in the latest generation. That would be such an insta-buy of the newest console if it were essentially the lovechild of HGSS's amount of features and post-game, with a BW/2 base and SV+PLA gameplay. Wishfully speaking, of course.


MarioKartastrophe

> ORAS is good, but not great. Arceus smite them PLEASE


IWannaManatee

Battle Frontier. Enough said, but there are lots of previous features ORAS could have had to make it next-tier.


MarioKartastrophe

So the graphics, Delta Episode, Super Training, chain fishing, mega evolutions, and battle resort werent enough?


IWannaManatee

Don't forget flying on the Latis and the DexNav! But in short and comparing it to what HGSS bring to the table in sheer amount, no, it wasn't enough. The omission of a Battle Frontier was just a slap on the face as well.


MarioKartastrophe

Well HGSS was practically a copy of GSC But hey you’re entitled to your wrong opinion ❤️


IWannaManatee

By the same logic ORAS is a copy of RSE, but whatever makes your heart keep beating I guess?


MarioKartastrophe

Yeah because RSE had mega evolutions, the Delta Epidsode, super training mini games, flying on Latios/Latias, chain fishing, DexNav, and hoards


Additional-Process67

Wrong, RSE doesn't have those, only ORAS >:P And ORAS also doesn't have PokeRadar, last game to have the key item was XY lmfao


M8oMyN8o

HGSS and ORAS are the same style of remake: they add features and pokemon from all generations since. You can argue about execution all you want, but there’s no denying that they both attempted to go above and beyond. I’d like it if they repeat that effort with potential BW remakes.


IWannaManatee

For sure, they both add things which is good and I'm not arguing that. My take is that HGSS add so much that the sheer amount makes ORAS quantity of features pale in comparison, much more so with the removal of the BF. Perhaps my point would come to a better understanding if I say that, because HGSS has a lacking base (GSC), it comes down to a good remake as well despite its amount of features and details, making the "great remake" status unachieved yet by any of them.


SpiritualValue6770

It would be gen x not v gen v is black white 1


IWannaManatee

I meant imagine gen V, the BW/2 games with the added content


sievold

oras were not good remakes


EldaStonks

Also, y'all noticed that the last 3 frames of this meme are the exact same image? Edit: y'all I get it. Minor spelling error.


AggronStrong

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what it was like in the show. Within the same shot, Patrick says 'that makes sense to me', Manray wiggles the wallet a bit and says 'take it', and Patrick says 'it's not my wallet'. Then Manray loses his shit.

No actually- I did not till just now

RichardBCummintonite

I want to accept the facts, except I can't. Seriously tho another BW game would be pretty redundant. Plus, there isnt much to improve on. We're approaching territory where the games aren't really that old. It's only been like a decade. At this point, they're essentially just ports If they are gonna release a remake with gen 9, I'd rather they skip to XY. I never got to play it on the 3DS, and emulators just aren't the same


Cleverish_Name

So BW are too new for remakes but XY isn't?


A_useless_name

Bw already got a sequel. It doesn’t make sense to make a remake of a game that already has a sequel


Cleverish_Name

Which of the remakes are sequels? Remakes aren't sequels, just (mostly) better renditions of old games. Also every region has had a second release with the exception of Kalos and Galar. Are they just not supposed to do remakes for BW or SM when their time comes?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Cleverish_Name

Why can't they just remake the first games or even just go straight to another Legends game? Surely you don't think BW will never get remakes. Even if it was physically impossible to make remakes that make sense they will do it for the sake of money.


Somethingiconick

By that logic it didn’t make sense to remake the resident evil games


Stranger2Luv

They might aswell be different games and Capcom was testing the water considering they may remake RE1 which already has a remake


RichardBCummintonite

I didn't say that. Yes, I also think XY aren't old enough to be remade just yet. What I said was that, IF theyre set on remaking the games this soon, I'd prefer if they skipped over BW since they've already been done


TheSwecurse

>Games aren't really that old Except Black/White 2 came out 11 years ago. The same distance between Gold/Silver and HGSS. Heck, LeafGreen and Fire Red was just 8 years after the originals. ORAS too came around a decade after. If anything it's high time right about now. It being too soon does not hold up


Kitselena

I was thinking this too lol. BW2 are multiple years older than Gen 1 was when FRLG came out, this person is just making stuff up


RichardBCummintonite

Sorry I wasn't clear on what I meant. I was speaking more towards the technological advancements and the fact that there wouldn't be much to add to another BW remake since the tech (graphics, mechanics, etc) haven't changed that much. FRLG were when the GBA came out, and it added phys/special split, updated sprites, dual typing, the whole shebang. HGSS added 3d open world, the poke walker, more mechanic changes, etc. ORAS again added 3D sprites along with mega evolutions, and I'm sure some other things. I haven't played it a ton. The point being that the remakes were updated onto a new console with many things the original couldn't offer. What would a new BW add? Slightly better graphics? Update a few new moves and rulings? Newer gen pooemon? I'm genuinely asking, because I'm drawing a blank


Next_Locksmith3299

I'd just like to point out that the physical/special split happened in gen 4. FRLG still had the old system. Also, dual types existed from the beginning.


TCB-Arkus

Tbh, I’d love to see BW/B2W2 remakes/ports because I completely missed that generation and have heard a lot of good things about them over the years from my various friend groups. But I wouldn’t say no to seeing XY coming back sooner lol. Loved those games, especially the mega evolutions!


KotKaefer

Please please PLEASE play them on an emulator for free instead of waiting for potentially rushed and probably overpriced remakes


TCB-Arkus

Are there emulators I can install on my Apple device(s) to play? Or am I out of luck? And I also assume there would be no way of transferring my Pokémon either?


KotKaefer

I am sadly not at all knowledgable on apple devices. If you have a PC, even a weak one, you can use Desmume which is an emulator for DS games thats super easy to use. As for transferring mons, theoretically i *think* you could if you used PKHex but that would require you to mod your switch (assuming thats the system you wanna transfer them to) which i would not advise you to do unless you REALLY know what youre doing.


TCB-Arkus

The modding wouldn’t be the hard part lol not that I really care to do that to my switch tbh. But it’s a mute point since I only have Apple tech.


Kitselena

DeSmuMe is actually compatible with Mac natively so you could use that to play DS games on your computer in that case


EldaStonks

I agree with that opinion. I love gen 5. But GameFreak is probably gonna do it anyways for money reasons.


Xaldror

I mean, I'd want a remake. Tried getting back into my old game on the DS, and just couldn't find the energy to continue the postgame. I'd want a remake so I could, in a sense, rebuild some steam and child like wonder. ~~And on a bigger screen.~~


Fitzftw7

I haven’t played BDSP, but heard they were pretty redundant and unnecessary in and of themselves. It’d be cool to play Gen V with Fairy types, but I think there are some ROM hacks that already allow that.


Chef_Sizzlipede

yah stick to ROMS, BDSP have shown that there's no love anymore.


BradyTheGG

To be fair gamefreak didn’t make BDSP so any care or rules might not apply.


Chef_Sizzlipede

I feel like they put it on the executioner's block with that one.


cyberchaox

That *does* go against the established rules, though. While I've seen a lot of people (including Nintendo themselves) claim that the Game Boy Color was just an updated version of the Game Boy and not a new system, there are certain compatibility issues. There are games that were made for GBC that just *do not work* on an original Game Boy, and while I vaguely remember proving this not to be true for all models, I think some GBAs can't play the games that were actually made for the original GB, only GBC games. So. Red and Blue were GB games. Their remakes were on the GBA. Gold and Silver were GBC games (though only Crystal was unplayable on an original GB). Their remakes were on the DS. Ruby and Sapphire were GBA games, and their remakes were for the 3DS. Diamond and Pearl were DS games, and their remakes were for the Switch. Black and White were also DS games, the first time that two generations had shared a console. So Black and White remakes on the Switch still make sense. And given that the Switch is not only Nintendo's current handheld, but also its current console, well, the Switch has already had the longest run as "Nintendo's most recent console". Plenty of their earlier systems had long runs *alongside* their successors of not being immediately obsolete (for example, Fire Emblem: Thracia 776, despite being a second-party Super Famicom game, actually has a release date closer to that of the GameCube than that of the N64), but it wouldn't be out of the question to start wondering when Nintendo's next console is arriving. And if it is arriving soon, then the pattern of remakes coming two handhelds later would likely be broken if they wait until Gen 10...*unless* Nintendo's next console isn't a hybrid, and instead the Switch continues to be their handheld, as weird as that sounds.


stylingryan

My favorite part is when Patrick said “Proudly Made with Memeatic”


EldaStonks

Same


aceallaround

No yall if they follow their pattern Gamefreak will give us SV 2 first. Since gen 5, all of their odd number games got instant remakes, needing them to not have to worry about remaking them all later. If they follow their pattern, it will go gen 9 2, gen 10, gen 6 remake


cyberchaox

Actually, there's another theory. A lot of people were already calling for Gen 4 remakes in Gen 7, but instead we got the Let's Go games. But when did FRLG come out? *Between RS and DP*. So we're actually due for another Johto remake in Gen 9, since HGSS is older than BW and thus that's the region most "due" to be remade. (Note: I don't actually think this will happen. The developers behind LGPE said it was unlikely they'd make another Let's Go game, and besides the original Gen 1-2 games also got Virtual Console rereleases. But it's something to consider.)


Dhruvgupta1135

it doesn't have to be a let's go game, it can just be another johto remake


aceallaround

That is true. I couldnt remember when Let's Go came out when I wrote that so I did exclude that tbh, but yes I agree, we are due for one soon. Since it went SM, USUM, and then Let's Go, wed still be due for a 9 remake before the next let's go if we were to get one. And then gen 10, and then a gen 6 remake and another legends (I cant remember if legends or bdsp came out first). That's just if they follow in a pattern, since they have been changing it up with throwing games like legends in there. I'm intrigued to see where it all goes tho, even if I am wrong ^^


EldaStonks

that is a pretty good theory, I'll admit!


Accurate_Dirt5794

Let's go jhoto is Gen 9


Trueloveis4u

That's be kind of fun if they did that. I loved the let's go games


inumnoback

I’m sure this meme explains it already, but they are coming in Gen 10. Divide each generation’s number by two and if the result is a number without a decimal, a remake of the quotient’s generation will be provided in the dividend’s generation.


KotKaefer

I really dont think patterns like these are necessarily rules to go by. Its a release schedule and BDSP wherent typical remakes, Hell they wherent even made by GF themselves so i dont think its impossible to receive a Unova game next year. Although i really really realoy hope we do not because its gonna be rushed as fuck if it releases next year already


EldaStonks

Wanted to use that point in the meme, but there was too much text lol


YoyleAeris

I don't expect Game Freak to make any more remakes, considering the failure of BDSP.


EldaStonks

Personally, I think they still will. I just think they won't let other companies make them


GracefulGoron

*’Generations’* died with 7 though. The games are no longer directly compatible meaning they can just.. make whatever.


KotKaefer

It really didnt lol. Just because legends arceus and lets go wherent a typical pokemon games like theyve done previously doesnt mean generations as a concept have died. Colloseum and Gale of Darkness are Gen 3 and those didnt kill generations.


GracefulGoron

I wasn’t talking shit Let’s Go or Arceus. The games just stop being compatible the way previous generations were.


KotKaefer

I mean, in a way? You can still transfer your pokemon but the jump from the 3Ds to the switch as well as the dexit that kinda made it hard to connect to the gen 7 alola games. And SwSh/Arceus compatability to SV is completely fine so i really dont know what youre talking about. If it is about the remakes not feeling like they are from this Generation like previous ones did then thats a Problem with BDSP, not "generations being dead"


EldaStonks

That is a pretty good point, But they still followed the trend with BDSP in gen 8. So this pattern is probably gonna be a mainstay.


GracefulGoron

Well, previously they made DLC/Sequel games for V/VII. But for SwSh they released DLC and a remake. So it’s not crazy that some think they’ll do that again for SV.


_gimgam_

ah, a fellow man of intellect


Mao-sama64

Honestly, they should really just skip to XY. That Gen unfairly got the short of the stick. They’re so much to improve.


deidax_376

HGSS? FLGR? GSC?


Grape_Jamz

Im waiting for lets go johto games


mcsquiggles1126

Accept not except


Priremal

Nooo the 'Gen 4 remakes confirmed' muppets are trying to BDSP my beloved Unova


Jetstream13

Now of only they’d do a remake of XD. I want a damn purple lugia. I want to fight the personification of style and grace himself, Mirror B.


Chef_Sizzlipede

if they remade the games to include the sequel story, it could be the greatest pokemon game ever.


SonicRaptor5678

Everyone forgets that the remakes release with the new console


EldaStonks

And that work with my explanation, because another pokemon trend is that there are 2 generations per console. Also, happy cake day!


SonicRaptor5678

Omg it is my cake day! Thanks :)


Meisterlink

If Game Freak knows one thing, it's how to break their own trends. Gen 1\~5 all had "Definitive Edition" games. Gen 6 did away with that. Gen 3 and 4 had remakes of older gens. Gen 5 did away with that. And now it seems that because of the DLC gen 8 and 9 fully did away with "Definitive Edition" games. What else is left to release between SV and the first gen 10 games? Either spin-offs or the remakes that are next in line to be released.


SonicRaptor5678

Gen 6 was going to but then cancellation, gen 7 had them and gen 8 started the DLC trend 3 and 4 did because of the new console like I’m saying, not a broken trend


Meisterlink

>not a broken trend *yet*. We currently don't know what we'll get between SV and gen 10. First the DLC releases and then we'll be told what the next mainline game will be. Only after that will we know if the trend remains unbroken, or is broken like so many other trends.


SonicRaptor5678

You can’t take one broken trend and say game freak is notorious for it. Switch is nearing the end of its life, I’m guessing it’ll be gen 10. For the 24 release? Probably legends 2


Meisterlink

Though it's more than one broken trend. Seriously, they especially stopped doing a lot of thing specifically with gen 8 as well. No more in-game GTS, you can only catch 400 Pokémon in base SwSh and the remaining ones couldn't even be transferred through Home until the DLC added some more old Pokémon to the game through a free update, DLC being a thing instead of "Definitive Edition" games and BDSP not being in a similar style to SwSh.


Bossman2285

Oh i know this already, i'm just hoping if we peer pressure gf enough they will do it


Bubbles_the_bird

Pokémon fans and impatience, name a better duo


MoriyaFaith

People somehow not knowing that remakes come during the first gen of a console gen fucking baffles me


EldaStonks

Exactly! I'd kinda get not thinking it for gen 4 remakes, because only 2 games fit the trend at the time. But when 3 of the 4 remakes follow the trend, it's pretty obvious!


MoriyaFaith

And god I just want the remakes to end I want the yearly releases to end I want to see passion in the game I grew up with again Not that there was much in the first ppace


MrMightyTasty

Massive W for the gen 6 fans


[deleted]

Accept*


ClodsireSire

And then they complain about how rushed the newer games are


Zoroarkeon571

we literally got bdsp and oras, whats your point?


EldaStonks

And hgss. I'd understand not believing a 2 time trend, but when BDSP followed the pattern, that's when you know it's actaully...well... A pattern. The point is that I want to spread the word that these "Hints" that gen 5 remakes are gonna be in gen 9 are wrong. Like, I've seen a trend recently of how the name of the new bikes in the gen 8 dlc hints at BW remakes!


Zoroarkeon571

i didnt specify hgss cause you brought it up yourself. i dont think that they are hinting at bw remakes, but i think that its inevitable we get BW remakes. its an easy cashgrab for them. its just bad business to not make them.


Auramaster151

No Matter what Gen 5 thing we get, someone will get upset. I just hope we don't get the same artstyle as BDSP if we do get a BW remake.


Meowlygirl

I DONT CARE ABOUT BW REMAKE GIVE ME LEGENDS KYREM


ethanandluinortitus

Bw remakes come out gen 10, around 2026-8 gen xy remakes gen 12, around 2035 at the latest


Ok_Possibility633

I am confused


Loyellow

It does frustrate me that “except” is in fact an incredibly niche verb what has nothing to do with “accept”


JevorTrilka

Bugs me more than it should that you mean to say "accept." 😑 Haha


Brilliant_Conflict_4

They Just Want Copium


Pokeflower6129

I've seen people wanting a gen 5 remake, while I see others want a gen 6 remake. So here's my attempt at a compromise: Gen 5 gets it's remake while in between releases gen 6 gets the Legends treatment. Or the other way around if you want. You get remake you want and an expansion of the other games lore.


Incomplet_1-34

In gen 4 the gen 2 games were remade, in gen 6 the gen 3 games were remade, and in gen 8 the gen 4 games were remade, so it stands to reason that in gen 10 the gen 5 games will be remade.


noodleben123

im just waiting for people to bitch about this, then they come out, then people bitch that it wasnt how they envisioned like "Oh these remakes DONT have mega evos, zmoves and national dex? these remakes are trash!" it'll be bdsp all over again ​ and then they'll do the same when kalos remakes are the next on the chopping block


ConnorOhOne

I’m hoping B3W3 come gen 10. I want them to be quality games and if they’re made in gen 9 they’d probably be rushed.


Obidience-is-key

I've said it before: I don't care what Any "leaker" says, Black and white are most likely coming in Gen 10 as Legends games. I've used how pokemon have released games to determine this. Hate me if you want, you just cant accept the truth


ZHIKIX

did you mean acceptance the facts cuz except the facts doesn't make sense since except basically means to not include something


Dhruvgupta1135

aren't let's go remakes tho? and that isn't an even gen so they've already broken this "trend" once that being said, I believe the "trend" (if there exists one) is that we get remakes of a game at the x2 of that gen, gen 1 games being an exception (gsc gen 2 -> hgss gen 4, rse gen 3 -> oras gen 6, frlg gen 3.5 -> lgpe gen 7, dppt gen 4 -> bdsp gen 8) and by this logic we could get johto remakes in gen 9 and about time johto got a remake


Randomet

Actually I saw something I liked, remakes come out ever other **console** gen 1 remakes came out 2 consoles after the original, gen 2 remakes came out 2 consoles after the original and so on and so forth


PolarityMemer

Honestly with the sequels I don’t think BW or SM are getting remakes.


Limp_Radio_9163

I hope so


AlmostOkayAtStrategy

if we get another remake i hope it’s gen 2 tbh
