Remember when there was news that there would be a new Pokemon game for the 3DS? Well, it's most likely gonna be Pokemon XD - Gale of Darkness.

The magazine scans reader David points us towards are ridiculously blurry and the images vague, but three things are certain: That spiky-haired character is holding a Pokéball, the game is on the 3DS, and that's Agate Village from Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.

For more than a decade now, Pokémon fans have been clamoring for a console version of the role-playing games that set Nintendo's handhelds on fire, and for year's they've been getting watered down crap. Console titles like Pokémon Colosseum, Pokémon Battle Revolution, and Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness gave players a small taste of what they really wanted, but kept the full Game Boy and DS experience just out of reach.

So now, instead of giving players what they want, it looks like Nintendo is porting one of the games they didn't want to the 3DS. This makes perfect sense.

The redhead in the scan is definitely the main character from Gale of Darkness, and Agate Village is a location visited in both Gale and Colosseum's adventure mode. Since both games feature similar locations, perhaps they're combining both.

If the scans prove true, it looks like Nintendo is ready to bring the experience of being disappointed by a Pokémon game to the 3DS. Seems like a smart move to me.[/p]

It's not a bad game, it just isn't that good

but, I should respect it. It's my first pokemon game.
 
This was already posted in the 3DS forum.
And it's authenticity has already been called into question, if you look you can see the slide pad is the same colour as the 3DS system, a trait not found in the final production.

Oh crap, I didn't even see that topic! My bad...

And the slider does look blue, but there's a glare there, so it's kind of hard to tell.
 
Pokemon XD is a great game (of course it's kinda limited by being too short and have few pokemon) but if a remake could have included more pokemon's (including the fifth generation)
