Is there going to be a Generation V?

[Zeph]

Yes, probably. They really need a Dolphin Pokémon and a pre-evo of Kangaskhan (It makes no sense for them to be born already with babies in their pouches!). And some other stuff too...

I my opinion, Arceus is 'God' who made the Universe and stuff, but once it was all made, he created Mew, who in turn created all living things.

 

[Forgotten]

I think they will keep going.

 

[Crazy Linoone]

I think there will be another generation. After all, Pokemon is selling quite nicely right now.

 

[Involuntary Twitch]

Arceus is the creator of the universe and the god of all Pokemon. I will HATE Gamefreak if they make anything stronger than him. <<

That being said, there's no reason they can't create more legendary Pokemon by zooming in more on the world of Pokemon rather than getting larger-scale. Instead of making the Pokemon that created Arceus and/or Arceus' evil parallel (something I hate seeing even more), make a specialized region with Pokemon that control, say, continental shift, or the weather for a specific area. Or stop making legendaries altogether, and reuse some of the old ones instead.

...Funny, actually, I had a dream about the fifth gen last night. Included was a Magikarp evolution that was a whale and, for some reason, Pokemon mixes. Don't you guys think it was about time Gamefreak included mixes in? Like, some organization that mutates Pokemon or whatever, or a sudden mutation outbreak. :P (Awesome award to anyone that gets the reference.)

Call me a fool, but, since I think there will be a 5th generation, I want to see Mewthree. I'd also enjoy seeing Eeveelutions with effort put into them. A well-done dragon type Eevee would be pure win, or dual type Eeveelutions. Folieon, the Grass/Poison type Eeveelution, or Nereideon, the Ice/Water type. And am I the only one thinking a puppy/kitten/cub version of Absol? Mawile and Sableye are overdue for evo's, too. Honestly, if they could do it right, I think Gen 5 could end up better than any since G/S/C. I just hope that they do.

 

[Zhorken]

Wait! Someone did vote against. I was wondering why that didn't happen, because I remember a conversation on the old forums saying that the fifth gen shouldn't be made >_>.

Oh, it shouldn't be made, but I wouldn't be surprised if they decided to.

EDIT: A fifth generation of Pokémon, I mean; a fifth generation of games wouldn't be bad.

 

[@lex]

Yah, it'll most likely happen. And, nobody said the need to TOP Arceus, they can just pump in new Pokémon anyway.

Maybe they'll stop at 985, leaving Arceus in the very middle of the PokéDex? XP

 

[Noctowl]

As long as they keep making money out of the games, they won't stop.

 

[Grinning Calamity]

Probably, but I don't love the new games like I do the older games, because it's the same thing over and over. Battle, catch all the pokemon, beat the League. Woo. They should kinda mix it up a little, make the gym leaders have different ways of battling or something, I don't know. :/

Yeah, I agree. I find myself simply playing a pokemon game just to beat it and get it over with. Not enjoy it.

 

[Qwilfish]

I don't think so, for the fact is that Ninty are sure to run out of ideas some day.

 

[Mercury]

Yes. Pokemon will go on for a very long time, as long as the fans stick with it.

 

[Kabigon]

Its always fun to collect more.

Like Colosseum! :D
It has to be the only one that really is different enough to be a spinoff, while remaining true enough to be mainstream. Also, the somewhat less cute-than-normal style was a very nice change. I get sick of the cute look that Ruby and Sapphire have started. D:

Plus, I love 2 vs. 2 battles, and I think having them completely replace single battles was more of a blessing than a curse. Hurrah for the oh-so-underrated Colosseum!

Its always fun to collect more.

I almost died of frusteration trying to catch Azelf. No, it's not always fun to collect more.
The focus needs to be on the actual battles, the plot, and the music.

Yes, I said the music. It has a bigger effect on things than you'd think. Ever seen the last duel in the movie The Good, The Bad and the Ugly? It'd be much more boring than suspenseful at the end without proper music.

 

[Furretsu]

I don't want there to be one, but there will be one.

 

[Belmont]

There will be more for sure, although I do think that they must be running out of ideas for sprites and names by now.

 

[MidnightAgony]

Yes, there will be one, but if they are running low on ideas, then they'll just hire more people, probably.

 

[Kabigon]

Actually there are thousands of ideas and everything. They just take all the good ideas to the side then out of the good ideas, pick the best ideas. They keep doing that process until they get the 100 or so pokemon. A friend interviewed that dude who used to work on the Anime and he said this is how they do it.

Like in the water gym, fire attacks would be weaker.

I absolutely agree with the Pokémon theories in this. Absol doesn't really seem like it should be the only one in its evolutionary line, (of course, this does come from a person who makes Absol splices/prevos as a hobby) and there need to be more Eeveelutions.

As to running out of ideas, I'd say that's virtually impossible. They haven't even made a tiger Pokémon yet (or a lion one). All they'd need to do to get a new idea would be look up some random species of animal and branch off of it.

So, yes, there will be a Generation V and probably many after it.

(or a lion one)

-_- Shinx, Luxio and Luxray.
