Pokémon Gen V

[Hushie]

I think it's about time for a thread dedicated to Pokémon Gen V discussion, speculation, information etc.

Generation V was officially announced a few days ago on Pokémon Sunday when Jun'ichi Masuda,
the director of Pokémon, revealed the first silhouette of a Gen 5 Pokémon.
It is expected that more information will be revealed in the february 15th edition of Coro Coro.

Gen 5 is expected to be released for the DS in 2010

Any thoughts? I actually can't wait, such a Pokénerd

Gen 5?! Sorry I'm out of touch with everything after Mewtwo, are generations based on each kind of game or are they each a different set of Pokémon? I only know of the first 150 then the next 100 or so...

1G - Blue, Red and Yellow (Green in Japan). 1-151
2G - Gold, Silver and Crystal. 151-251
3G - Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald. 251-386
4G - Diamond, Pearl and Platnium. 386-493

(Not too sure on the numbers)

LeafGreen, FireRed, HeartGold and SoulSilver are all remakes for newer consoles so aren't a generation.

Oh I see, cheers I've only played Blue, Yellow, Gold and LeafGreen. Loved LeafGreen because it's the original game but with all the modern features

I love new pokemon!
We've not even got Gold/Silver yet though ;o
Won't have much of a wait for the next game then.
That's good ;D

According to www.serebii.net it's been confirmed by CoroCoro that the Pokémon in the silhouette and it's pre-evo are these:

Show Hide

I'm not too keen on them, seem kind of bland to me

Ah man, when I was younger I loved Pokémon!

I played all the way from 1996 and loved it!
The last one I played was 'Diamond' I think. Nice find by the way.

The drawings always do, as soon as its a sprite it looks right.
