• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

What will happen after Gen.7?

So you think the system will magically stop working just because they've run out of numbers?
Why does that sound almost familiar?

Oh yeah... Y2K

Eh? 256. One of those junk ones is an egg, I think, but that still leaves four more.

250+one we're pretending is a secret is a prettier number than 255, though.

I don't know quite as much about gen 2 data structure as I used to, though; all I really remember is that they were so wasteful, they used an entire byte for a two-state flag.
 
Changing to four-digit numerations would be the next logical step, though I would most certainly not be surprised if they required scientific notation to keep track of the Pokemon by the end of a handful of years.
 
Ever heard of the Pokemon reset theory or whatever? (I heard of it from some random yt channel) that is what I think is going to happen. Remakes of everything, and the release of Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee also supports this
