This would also give The Pokémon Company an incentive to allow Pokémon Blue and Pokémon Red on Switch Online, as Pokémon Home has a paid subscription option, and compatibility with the old Gen 1 and Gen 2 games might bring in some extra subscribers. Related: Pokémon Red & Blue: How The Starter Pokémon Were Difficulty Modes If the Virtual Console games and Pokémon Bank can transfer the Pokémon from the Gen 1 games into the modern games, then surely the same can be done on Nintendo Switch? The Nintendo Switch already has a dedicated Pokémon Home app that can be used to directly connect with Nintendo Switch Online's apps, after all. My final wishlist item would be a new anime series that goes back and follows the original Pokémon Adventures manga.This allowed players to move Pokémon from the Gen 1 games into any of the other titles, so long as they weren't cut during the Dexit process that has been happening since Pokémon Sword and Shield. It’s creating less than stellar games (I loved Scarlet, but it was still a very hot mess and Legends: Arceus was a mess as well). I want them to stop the tradition of launching a new game every year or two. Other items on my wishlist include an announcement of improvements to Scarlet and Violet, a new spin-off coming next year or even the year after. Another hope is that they announce Pokémon Trading Card Game 2 will be released in English for the first time via NSO. I also would think it’s fun if they announced that the spin-off Pokémon games like Mystery Dungeon titles are coming to NSO + EP later this year. Once again, I’m not hopeful, but a guy can dream. It would also be awesome if you could connect them to Pokémon Home. I would love it if they announced that all of the core Pokémon games for GB/C and GBA are released as well as both Pokémon Stadium titles with interplay between them. I know there were murmurings when a Japanese video for NSO + EP getting Pokémon Stadium removed the text that said Game Boy games would not be able to transfer Pokémon, but I’m not getting my hopes up. I expect these games will have trading and battling enabled via online multiplayer and am hoping that things are worked out where you can connect the Game Boy games to Pokémon Stadium to get the most out of that experience. I then predict that every 2-3 months, another set of Pokémon games will be added for Game Boy/Color and Game Boy Advance on the online platforms. The other video game announcement in my prediction is that Pokémon Red, Pokémon Blue, and Pokémon Yellow will be added to Nintendo Switch Online and Pokémon Stadium will hit NSO + EP day of, or at least within a month. I know the team has been working hard to update the games with fixes and I hope that is continued. The first of those video game announcements will be additional content (DLC) for Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet that will release later this year and also be available as part of Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pass. I think that we’ll hear about something new for Pokémon Unite, a new event or series of events for Pokémon GO, some physical merch like plushies, a trailer for the new Pokémon anime series, and two other video game announcements. I’m going to start with my predictions and you can find my wishlist a little later.
