[DISCUSSION] Gen 8 New Battle System Rumors?
#1
I wonder if you guys have heard of these new rumors about the upcoming Nintendo Switch Pokemon game.

Apparently, the source for these new rumors are the same people who revealed the existence of Team Rainbow Rocket in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon before the game release. In sum:
  • There will be a new, simplified battle system (which has been compared to that of the Digimon World games).
  • There will be no new Mega Evolutions introduced in the new games
  • Z-Moves return and now use motion control to activate using the Joy-Cons
  • Central plot revolves around the conflict between tradition and innovation
  • Region inspiration has been rumored to be Spain or Italy
  • Release to come late 2018 (~December) or early 2019
It is important to emphasize that there has been no official confirmation from Nintendo or Game Freak though, so these are really just rumors.

But if this is true, I'd be very disappointed that they'd completely change the traditional turn based battle system that they've established for 20 years. This would totally mess up competitive battling...

Do you guys have any thoughts?
