New Pokémon RPG coming to Japan in 2010?

[Shinryuji]

No, this is NOT an April fools, though if it is some sort of sick joke, then I will be mightly irritated. I discovered today the following article on Infendo, which you can see in its glory HERE, and states the following.

Yesterday, IGN reported that Nintendo announced that they are currently working on a new Pokemon RPG for the DS, which will be complete with new Pokemon, a new region, and new game gameplay concepts. If this is the start of “Generation 5?, this will make the first time that two generations have been released on the same console (if you don’t count Gold & Silver, which could be played on the Game Boy but were intended for the Game Boy Color). The game is slated for release in Japan by the end, making it four years since the Japanese release of Diamond & Pearl.

No news other than that, but with a release date that close, you can bet that Nintendo will be releasing more information soon (E3 anyone?). In the meantime, everybody make sure you get out there and pre-order Heart Gold & Soul Silver to make your claim on one of those statuettes.

If this isn't news, then I don't know what is

Anyway, what is everyone thinking about the announcement of the FIFTH generation of Pokémon games? Reson to celebrate, or reason to sigh and once again look away from Nintendo?

This.
Maybe I'll check it out though if the battle mechanics are changed, but else, no.

No new information, already been posted about, there's a search button, ever thought of using it?

 

[Shinryuji]

Yes, searched for it, didn't find anything. Must have just missed it, eh?

Funny how when I search the User Submitted News for Pokemon it's the third result.

There never was; they used a goat.
