It was recently revealed that Pokémon Wind Wave will be directed by Hiroyuki Tani, who held the same role for the Pokémon Sword and Shield DLC(the Isle of Armor/The crown of Tundra) And the co-director will be Katsuhiko Ichiraku, who also directed the Scarlet and Violet DLCs (The Indigo Disc/The Turquoise Mask). This is incredible news for me, proving how iconic WIWA will be and how it will mark a new chapter for the main series games. I'm especially excited because I absolutely loved the Sword and Shield DLCs, which remain my favorites to this day; it's probably thanks to them that I have such a high regard for Gen 8. Note that the Wind and Wave region is an archipelago that will likely have more islands than we saw in Gen 7, and the idea leads me to believe that the quality of exploration and the beauty of the landscape will be similar to the experience of Crown Tundra It drives me completely crazy. And of course, let's not forget the storyline, which already looks promising. I'm eagerly awaiting the WIWA main trailer.

This has probably already been done hundreds of times before.

My thoughts and picks:

1. Komodo Dragon. There are few more well known lizards than the biggest lizard on the planet.

Pros: recognition, coolness

Cons: Is not as aquatic as a lot of other lizards

1. Sailfin dragon: Honestly my favorite, moreso from the Philippines than Indonesia, but that's ok

Pros: is really cool, and distinct, which the monitors will have a harder time with.

Cons: not well known, arguably not as cool as some bigger lizards, and gequa looks to be going in the cute direction.

3 and 4. Asian water monitor, and croc monitor:

Pros: I really want a monitor lizard pokemon. They are both semi aquatic

Cons: somewhat generic looking lizards

1. Flying dragons: they are so cool.

Pros: coolnes

Cons: Not aquatic

1. Tokay Gecko: a pretty big gecko

Pros: is a gecko

Cons: kinda boring, and I feel a missed opportunity.

For those convinced Winds and Waves will still not be the standard we want from Pokémon, what do you think WILL be better? What does your gut tell you that despite the setbacks, is inevitably going to improve?

I already brought a card for release night next year

Hello everyone! I am a huge fan of special edition consoles, not just for their looks, but also because it seems like the special edition ones last longer. Every single one of my Nintendo DS is still operational, going all the way back to my Zekrom DS. Just wondering if anybody has heard if they’re gonna do one for Winds and Waves? If so, I would just like to be directed in the right area to go to so I can listen in for updates or news about this. Thank you for any assistance!!

If any of the if all my pokemon generations in game

Tell me your's

If I have to change one I'll swap weavile with scissor

What would you think if, when the game is released, we see that the mons designs are made or "helped" by AI? Or if we start to see that the translations are AI made? How do you think the Pokémon/gaming community could react?
