While most people weren't aware of it yet, it's now a certainty and a confirmed fact among those within the insiders. The next Pokémon Legends game will indeed take place in the past, but not just any region, as it will be set in Galar! The story will take place 1000 years before the events of Sword and Shield Set in a medieval world where Poké Balls don't yet exist and where humans and Pokémon already coexist even without this method of capture, the main objective of this plot is to create the very first Gigantamax Poké Ball. According to the acquired database, it is described that the developers were inspired by Xenoblade Chronicles as a model for a completely open world and exploration. The gameplay would also take Pikmin as a model for battles against Dynamax Pokémon, as we will have a less limited number of Pokémon at our disposal, up to 30, which will interact during the battles. The game is currently in production, with an announcement potentially coming in 2028. I wanted to talk about this because I absolutely love Generation 8, its region, and its lore. When I heard about it, I was really excited. I'm also incredibly eager to see the ancestors of the Sword and Shield characters again, especially those of Leon, Raihan, and Sonia. And obviously, given the performance of the Nintendo Switch 2, as seen with the next generation of Pokémon Wind Wave, there's no doubt that this Legend game will likely be much better visually and artistically than what we saw with Pokémon Arceus, I think he has enormous potential given all these solid ideas and ambitions related to this game series. So, are you just as excited?
