In a shock announcement on the Pokémon Japanese website today, it has been revealed that there will be a brand new Pokémon role playing game, in stores this year!

The president of Pokémon Company confirmed that they are working on an entirely new Pokémon RPG for the Nintendo DS, and that it will include at least one brand new Pokémon! Our translation of the announcement tells us that they are planning to recreate the game from the ground up, so that should introduce some interesting new gameplay elements.
So that would make this mystery game the first of the fifth Generation of Pokémon games, and the first time a new generation has begun on the same console as the previous generation of games. So what is your reaction to this news? Our first thoughts are that we would rather they created a definitive Pokémon RPG for the Wii, using the advanced graphics and motion capabilities of the console rather than simply create another DS game. But what do you think? Leave your comments here and start a discussion!
More on this as we get it…







i like the ds as a pokemon game consloe because i hear Heart gold is going to be a good game and good graphics.i didn’t forget about soul silver
Please respond
a new game and heart gold and ss ar not out ihpe they make a mix bweetween ditto and munchlax called muncho
I think it should be a ds game because you can play it when your on the go and because pokemon is meant to be portable.
Sounds exciting!
It sounds strange that they’d say ‘at least 1 brand new pokemon’, though.
Cool I cant wailt I thought New generation of Pokemon games come out on next generation Handhelds.
This is great news but… Wouldn’t it be even better if (and I am turning away from nintendo here) they made Pokemon to the same standard they make final fantasy games?
nintendo don’t have a console like the PS3!
Think about it….They have more than enough pokemon now, to make a real world map to explore. You could do battles like how they did it in ff12. Except that when you run up to a monster you just chuck your pokeball out, and your character stands in the background as the focus is on your pokemon fighting the wild pokemon.
Game Freak must have made mega profits off this franchise so now it is time to do it justice and expand for not only young players but young adults too. At my ripe old age of 22 I would really love to see this game on the big screen on the PS3. But I guess thats the problem isnt it
Oh, if only I could work for them *sigh*
I love the idea of a new pokemon! yes it would be good on the wii but i love the ds titles
I think it will be good to have another game on DS, but I think another Pokemon game on Wii would be better.
awesome!! im really glad theyre making more for the ds. ive only had the chance to play on a couple of wii games, but always preferred the graphics and gameplay of the ds, so im happy theres more ds games! i really hope its gonna be good and that the new pokemon will be cool!
adorei esse jogo, mas a 5ª geração inclui evoluções?
AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!(loud yell of excitment)
better make it for the ds, cause im not spending money to get a wii
Wow it has been on serebii,net and pokebeach.com and now here!I’m so excited!I think it will come out in the U.S. in 2011
“the first time a new generation has begun on the same console as the previous generation of games.”
Not really. The second generation started on a GameBoy (with Color support), which was still a gameboy. This time, it will start on a DS (with DSi support), which is still a DS.
What?
After Heartgold and soulsilver their bringing out another one
Omg! I can’t wait! Althouh I’ll probably be dead by the time this comes to the UK.
ITs about time, they should come out with more games sooner and not wait so long. They should also sell them everywhere at the same time.
no keep it on the DS and sounds awesome i’m really excited, should be epic!!!!
Wow! A new RPG! Sweet! I wonder if it will be a remake of and old version, or a complete new region of Pokemon? Hmmm….
cool thx pkmn world
