What did I tell ya! Hah! This was no remake it's a new 3ds game just like I guessed it would be!
This is just what I imagined. Even the art style. Damn nintendo good work!
 
The game might be based on the entirety of Europe, with Gen 5 being based on the U.S. That Paris-lookalike town could be just one, with others similar to other European cities. Here's hoping for large cities in a Pokemon game based on Rome, London, Barcelona, Brussels (and hopefully also Budapest, hey I can dream can't I?)
 
October for Japan or worldwide?

Anyway, because of the goddamn region lock I wont be able to play it in japanese like I did with the two previous gen :( (or I hope, the region lock will be bypassed by the "hack", or I invest in a japanese 3DS XL).

world wide
 
may I ask, where exactly you see this so called creative change?
It's still just pokemon. it still looks like you move on a chessboard. battles are still turn taking like before. ok, they are now in celshading 3D (which reminded me a lot at the models they use in prof. layton). the perspective seems to change randomly as it did since black and white... and though we can only guess its about gym leaders, an evil team and the france branch of the pokemon league, it seems pretty much the same as before, doesn't it?

uh, that's what pokemon is.

A R/S/E remake would have been just as good though. Those were some of my favorite Pokemon games, and they would look great in celshaded 3D. Especially the underwater parts.

I guess it looks alright in 3D but I do worry that the battles will be Pokemon Stadium-type slow and boring or with that dynamic camera it'll be almost nauseating at times.

While it seems like a visual evolution, I seriously doubt it's a gameplay evolution. So it'll be fine with the fans who'd buy it regardless but it won't be drawing in longtime skeptics.
