I love Unova but I can't be too mad, Unova got a whole generation to itself and was pretty fleshed out, while Kalos got shafted. A new Legends game that expands in an undercooked region with interesting new lore and a bunch of possibilities on the table? We take those!
Roger you might want Scorbunny but when this announcement was made for the Kalos game my immediate thought was of my best friend. She has been my absolute rock and lifeline for over a decade now. Always pushing me back from the brink whenever I’ve been at my lowest and had mental breakdowns. She is everything to me and I know how obsessed she is with FENNEKIN. Fennekin is her favorite pokemon of all time. Like your love for Likitung. So I hope with every part of me that Fennekin is in this and has an emphasis in this game being an original starter from X and Y. She’s sleeping right now and I’m waiting for her to wake up to tell her the news
@@RogersBaseI could not be happier for my bestie. She’s currently charging her AirPods so I can call her lol. If anyone deserves a game with their favorite pokemon in it it’s her
Fennekin won't be a starter because none of the Sinnoh starters were part of Legends Arceus. My theory is Snivy, Torchic and Popplio. If not Torchic, maybe Scorbunny for the football theme because France is big on Football, too.
It's AZ!!! Remember that was the name of the person that called the war in Generation 6 where Mega Evolution was found. If you reverse the name of the game you get his name.
The Lumiose City blueprint looks like it's similar to those old kingdoms back in the medieval era where it's circular and within it is compact and full of houses and in the middle would be the main castle. The place was probably almost reduced to dust in the war and after it, Kalos probably entered a golden age after discovering steam or mechanical stuff and started modernizing their region (talking about the city from the movie featuring volcanion). Idk really it's just a theory but yeah
I wonder if they'll go back on the great pokemon war being 3000 years ago stuff. Like if they made it line up with WW1 (The Great War), this could easily take place in like 1920s-1930s Lumiose City with plans for a modern rebuild after being decimated by war times.
I do remember reading somewhere that back during ancient Rome, people built cities starting from a central landmark then circling outwards. Someone may correct me on this though 😅
I hope they treat Volcanion and Hoopa like they treated Darkrai and Shaymin in PLA. I hate mythicals being super exclusive event trophies, or even worse, Pokemon GO exclusive.
39:00 Honestly this is why I like @RogersBase, he actually understands how real life works. It's just a cute way to write Pokémon Presents, nothing more nothing less
Oh my god, we're actually getting the new Pokemon Legends ZA, I can't believe it! I wasn't even expecting this! I'm super hyped for this🤣😂! Pokemon Presents really made my day in every amazing incredible way! Thank you so very much Pokemon Presents! Happy Pokemon Day to you Roger! 🤗
Unova Legends has sense too because we don't have an idea what the original dragon actually looked like. Even the entralink mystery and that ruins where we can find Volcarona and the legend behind Moore of Icirrus
Kalos was on life-support before now. As a huge Gen 5 fan, I'm hyped for this. Plus, now we know for sure they don't care about going in order of generations for Legends.
I had some experience with Motion Capture for vid games and gotta say new Pokemons have such fluid and cool animations and movement choreography. It's such a funny, small detail you wouldn't necessarily expect in a title like this and such a big step from these GameBoy games. Ps. You almost saw me as Leon in these new Resident Evil games :)
I wanted a new Legends game, but certainly didn't expect them to announce it today, for next year and about gen 6 instead of 5 or at most 2 as we all were expecting, what a cool surprise! I think it will take place in either the future or, even more likely to me, a relatively recent past - considering we're talking about Pokémon's Paris counterpart and they mentioned urban redevelopment plans, it would make a lot of sense if it took place around 1889, i.e. when the Exposition Universelle took place and the Eiffel Tower was built.
Something to keep in mind, Paris went through a major redevelopment in the late 1800’s that was officially finished then the real world Eiffel Tower was completed. So it’s prion the past and you are a part of the redevelopment team
They probably teased gen 5 in the DLCs of Scarlet and Violet because they're planning to make gen 5 remakes for gen 10. It's incredibly smart because that way they can already predict to make the 3rd Legends game based on gen 5 after the remakes' release.
We're finally getting Mega Evolution back & we're FINALLY GETTING POKEMON Z!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Albeit it's interesting that it's in the form of a Legends game; and interesting theories that are forming are possibly either taking place in the era of AZ's time when he was king/the warring Kalos period OR due to despite being a Legends game but we have Cities & with the wording of Redevelopment Plans & the art maybe Z-A might take place in the future!!!!!!! My main hope for that when it comes to Megas that we get more Kalos pokemon would get Mega Evolutions considering it's the region that kickstarted the mechanic. A majority of Megas that we have now (from most to least; not including Reversion) mainly are from: Hoenn (20), Kanto (13), Johto (6), Sinnoh (5), & Unova + Kalos have 1 each; so it would be nice to even it out with the region that started the phenomenon for Kalos to gain more Mega Evolutions
Other things to consider, Roger, potential Ride/HM Pokemon. Aerodactyl or Talonflame could be our Fly. The starter lineup sounds good. I do wonder about Quaxly though, since the Dex says it's not native to Paldea. Granted, by doing that, they can include it whenever now.
Using mega evolution as a locked, in game perk like Alphas in Legends Arceus is honestly really smart. It lets us enjoy the mechanic without breaking competitive battles
If this new game is old Kalos and Kalos is based in France, they could do a Joan of Arc-inspired Pokemon that starts as a psychic, evolves to psychic fighting, and finally fire fighting.
Agree with Piplup (Napoleon reference) and Scorbunny (EU football), but I'd give some shine to Chikorita. Plus, why not give the French region the food starter? (chicory/bayleaf) I'd imagine the Kalosian types to be: Cinderace (fire/fairy): unique typing that complements the cycle Empoleon (water/fighting): Napoleon Meganium (grass/steel): food rich in Iron
there will have to be representation in the starters from gens 1-3. Arceus had gen 2 fire, gen 5 water, and gen 7 grass. very spread out. you gotta capitalize on the nostalgia from the starters. Gen 4 water, gen 5 grass, and gen 8 fire doesn’t bring enough of the old school rep.
Considering the starters will likely get new Mega Evolutions, I think I want Totodile, Turtwig, and Scorbunny. All of them could have really cool Megas.
Though I do agree about Empoleon my first thought for the water type was Totodile on instinct. I also thought Chikorita but I totally see the reasoning behind Snivy. Love Scorbunny can't think of anything better. As far as the name: Pokemon Legends Zygarde to Arceus.
I think It's future and goes with the theme from SV of Past and Future. Since it's Z - could mean 'through ' A. Alpha is first letter of greek alphabet corresponds to A and Omega is the last which corresponds to Z. So (Zygarde/oMEGA Arceus/Alpha. Alphas are in the Legends Arceus so I wonder if Z-A will have Omegas and they're like a future version of Megas like maybe they are permanently fused together with their megas like how you can get Alpha spawns while still being able to get their normal form in the wild. Also bonus points if we're the ones that send AZ's Floette to him from the future and AZ is connected to Area Zero hence why we're getting this game next because it is lore also for SV.
They really mashed legends, Z and Delta (emerald?) Into one, I hope this means Rayquaza is involved too. Kinda neat that they mixed in those two games that we felt were missing. Maybe next legends game can be Crystal Stars, lol
Even if we ARE looking at Greek letters, the letter after Z, not counting Z's tail that dashes through it, is actually Lambda, not Delta.... though yeah, it's not Lambda enough, so it's definitely A.
What good is a "digital card"? If they aren't physical cards there is no need to collect them and they can be taken away at any time just like Amazon can take books that you bought off their Kindles. No thanks.
I believe a Pokémon remake will happen every other generation, aside from the gen 1 remakes each remake happened every other gen (gen 2 remake ij gen 4, gen 3 remake in gen 6 and gen 4 remake in gen 8) so I think after gen 10 is when we get gen 5 remakes on switch 2
As someone who never played XY and thus never realized anything until the title reveal (to the point of not remembering in which region Lumiose even is), I'm excited seeing you nail the region as soon as you saw the Pyroars. Guess I'm still a long long way from being this franchise's big fan eh? 😅
Pokemon Legends Z- A, with the - being the line across the A. ZA for the character AZ, perhaps? Maybe this will be set in the time where he lost his flebebe. (But also apparently Lumiose City is being developed?)
I was just reminded that we got the fairy type and Sylveon in og Kalos maybe the long-awaited Drakeon (Dragon type)?! Just a guess though but feel free to be like 'OMG! Kiley called it!' Half kidding about that part though.
Megas are broken however it also lets others shine where they previously didn't. This could be new styles or just viability altogether. My favorite was probably Mega Mawile and I wasn't even a Mawile fan previously. Def made her viable (Well that and Fairy typing) EDIT: Also I think it's going to basically be like B2/W2.
I want to be honest I can see them putting in the lower that Greninja is special form with Ash is just the native form of a Greninja that has either mastered and honed their skills. Then we may just see greninja's and that form natively walking around without it being a transformation
When you think about it, all they have to do to make Mega Evolutions more balances is to reduce the amount of stats each Mega gets when buffed across the board from +100 to +75.
Since it’s releasing in 2025, I pray that this is a launch title for the next console. With how terrible they are at optimizing their games, I really hope that’s the case so they could brute force good performance.
Like 10 minutes before the start of the Pokemon presents I said in a chat something about them doing a Legends game set in the future on a whim. I didn't think I would be right.
I read some people speculate that PLZA might be based on the historical event of the Renovation of Paris in late 19th century. Admittedly the TRON-like wireframe scenery does look futuristic, but I'm with the past gang.
I hope hope Megas being around and it being about expanding Lumiose doesn't mean it won't focus on AZ and the ancient war: That was easily the most interesting part of Kalo's history and something XY didn't explore nearly as much as it should have, so for it to not be a major part of Legends Z-A would be a gigantic missed opportunity. But Mega Stones only existed after AZ's weapon was fired, and I likewise imagine Lumiose's expansion project would be relatively recent, not during AZ's reign.... I'm pretty worried.
Just looking at the title “Legends” reads as tales from the past. However, the urban development plans looks to be present/future lumiose. I think this game will have some form of time travel like Legends Arceus but more flushed out. You start in present Kalos where the city has the urban development plan but you will be able to go back to the past during AZ’s time and the pokemon war before the weapon fires. You get to learn more about the past and maybe the actions of going back will affect the urban development plan or how Lumiose will change. Just a thought, really hard to say. Like you mentioned AZ and the war were very important and weren’t flushed out so would be a missed opportunity not to use it in some form, even if we aren’t actually in the war itself.
If it was delta, there would be a line at the bottom. I think it's suppose to be A where the bottom part of the Z goes through the mid section to finish the A. Z-A or A-Z. Maybe we get more about the AZ.
Does this mean we're gonna get REGIONAL FORM Megas too now?! That could be so cool. Not only a new look for an old pokemon, but enchancing them through mega now.
Stated by someone somewhere but 2025 will also be the year of the snake so snivy AND Zygarde would make sense. Also potentially the release could be around feb-mar after chinese new year. But that's just me 🙂
Also funny enough, I assumed and still believe scorbunny's final form should've been electric and fire just from the design alone since it was released. Glad I'm not alone in this.
Pokémon legends was hype but this Pokemon presents was just mostly focused on mobile games they only ever seem to only reveal one console game how is it you are the biggest ip in the world and ur focus is phone apps without legends kalos this would be a f presents Again im excited for legends but im done getting hyped for these Pokemon presents This is why Palworld exists
I know it makes little sense since they're already based on ancient runes but what about 'modern form' Unown? Let me explain: we could FINALLY read MODERN pokemon language since it's different from Unown messages. I get that they could've just used them since they're the alphabet pokemon but that could also be a hint too. Not of a Johto remake but Unown specifically. It wouldn't be the first time in the day that they threw us a curve ball.
Also because unless they completely forgot about Unown, why would they wait like what 5 or so years since their first presents to wait til now when it's not even Johto?
it will happen in the future so your other favorite pokemons that no have a mega evolution will have a mega evolution now in the future. LETS GOO MEGAS!

I love Unova but I can't be too mad, Unova got a whole generation to itself and was pretty fleshed out, while Kalos got shafted. A new Legends game that expands in an undercooked region with interesting new lore and a bunch of possibilities on the table? We take those!
"Why the heck were you teasing Unova?!?"
They weren't LMAO
Yes they were

They were also teasing Johto
MEGA FLYGON CAN STILL HAPPEN
THERE'S HOPE, BOYZ!
I'm for Flygon too. My thoughts are Origin Xerneas and Origin Yveltal alongside Mega Zygarde would be very interesting.

@@RogersBaseI could not be happier for my bestie. She’s currently charging her AirPods so I can call her lol. If anyone deserves a game with their favorite pokemon in it it’s her
Based on how Legends: Arceus worked? Even if Fennekin isn't a Starter, your friend'll be able to catch herself a whole TEAM of Fennekin!
This is such a pure and wholesome comment haha I love it. No way fennekin won't be in it! Wouldn't be surprised if Delphox got a mega finally too!
Fennekin won't be a starter because none of the Sinnoh starters were part of Legends Arceus. My theory is Snivy, Torchic and Popplio. If not Torchic, maybe Scorbunny for the football theme because France is big on Football, too.
It's AZ!!! Remember that was the name of the person that called the war in Generation 6 where Mega Evolution was found. If you reverse the name of the game you get his name.
It’s Z-A
@NeutronFTW I know I'm saying if you flip the name around, you get AZ. Who was an important character to the lore of Gen 6.
I thought the same thing
No shit sherlock. No one forgot AZ 😭
We got the original X&Y on the “enhanced” version of the DS, the 2DS/3DS. So a release of the remake alongside the enhanced Switch would be symbolic.
The Lumiose City blueprint looks like it's similar to those old kingdoms back in the medieval era where it's circular and within it is compact and full of houses and in the middle would be the main castle.

Nobody was still shaking I was shocked from this we won 🙌 Mega evolutions are back Let’s go!!
Unova Legends has sense too because we don't have an idea what the original dragon actually looked like. Even the entralink mystery and that ruins where we can find Volcarona and the legend behind Moore of Icirrus
As a Unova stan, this is so much better
We'll still get Unova, just after they get moved used to Switch 2 with more development time :]
facts. we'll get Unova after Gen 10
Kalos was on life-support before now. As a huge Gen 5 fan, I'm hyped for this. Plus, now we know for sure they don't care about going in order of generations for Legends.

Hearing the mega evolution sound effect in 2024 brought me so much serotonin
Imagine the plot of legends za is you doing missions in order to help with the building of lumios city
It would be wild if we can see a bit of Paldea from Kalos with the weird invisible wall in Scarlet and Violet
Something to keep in mind, Paris went through a major redevelopment in the late 1800’s that was officially finished then the real world Eiffel Tower was completed. So it’s prion the past and you are a part of the redevelopment team
Who would've thought the letter Z could make the entire Internet go insane.
They probably teased gen 5 in the DLCs of Scarlet and Violet because they're planning to make gen 5 remakes for gen 10. It's incredibly smart because that way they can already predict to make the 3rd Legends game based on gen 5 after the remakes' release.
I want to believe that Lumiose tower was actually the weapon AZ used to wiped out all of pokemon who harmed his floette
Maybe Lumiose is being redeveloped after it got destroyed in the war?
I wonder if, instead of getting new starter “regional forms” like in Arceus, the starters in this game will get mega’s.
I think this might be a launch trailer for the new console
We're finally getting Mega Evolution back & we're FINALLY GETTING POKEMON Z!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Albeit it's interesting that it's in the form of a Legends game; and interesting theories that are forming are possibly either taking place in the era of AZ's time when he was king/the warring Kalos period OR due to despite being a Legends game but we have Cities & with the wording of Redevelopment Plans & the art maybe Z-A might take place in the future!!!!!!!

Man Pokémon Presents was blue balls. Played the Gen 1 music throughout the presentation and no NSO announcements was crazy.
Kalos left so much potential and so many unexplained things so I’m pumped i agree Roger this was low key the best thing they could have announced
If this new game is old Kalos and Kalos is based in France, they could do a Joan of Arc-inspired Pokemon that starts as a psychic, evolves to psychic fighting, and finally fire fighting.
Not fire fighting in my opinion. Si ce Joan of Arc was believed to be chosen by God I think psychic fighting makes the most sense.
@@mariustan9275 Fire fighting as a reference on how she died
@@HeidiMalagisi If that's the case why not fire ghost
No way in hell I’m even thinking about buying this game until I see gameplay
I think this is post war reconstruction era of Legends. There's a focus on rebuilding the city.
Agree with Piplup (Napoleon reference) and Scorbunny (EU football), but I'd give some shine to Chikorita. Plus, why not give the French region the food starter? (chicory/bayleaf)
I'd imagine the Kalosian types to be:
Cinderace (fire/fairy): unique typing that complements the cycle
Empoleon (water/fighting): Napoleon
Meganium (grass/steel): food rich in Iron
I really hope the TCG app gets added to the Switch 2 I’m so tempted to finally get into a Pokemon mobile game! Pokemon Z exists !!
I think the logo is not only going for ZA but also Z lambda. More origin forms perhaps
there will have to be representation in the starters from gens 1-3. Arceus had gen 2 fire, gen 5 water, and gen 7 grass. very spread out. you gotta capitalize on the nostalgia from the starters. Gen 4 water, gen 5 grass, and gen 8 fire doesn’t bring enough of the old school rep.
Another fun Pokemon Day stream from Roger!
Considering the starters will likely get new Mega Evolutions, I think I want Totodile, Turtwig, and Scorbunny. All of them could have really cool Megas.
Tbf....Everybody thinks it's Z-A....but what if it is indeed Z-"Delta" 🤔
Update: never mind. It says Z-A on the Pokemon website 🤣😂

It’s not a delta symbol. It’s an A, making the name Legends Z-A. This being a reference to the character AZ/Azoth.

Also funny enough, I assumed and still believe scorbunny's final form should've been electric and fire just from the design alone since it was released. Glad I'm not alone in this.
Here's to hoping for MEGA-WAILORD
Pokémon legends was hype but this Pokemon presents was just mostly focused on mobile games they only ever seem to only reveal one console game how is it you are the biggest ip in the world and ur focus is phone apps without legends kalos this would be a f presents
Again im excited for legends but im done getting hyped for these Pokemon presents
This is why Palworld exists
Source? 24:15
Whatever
Legend series only PVE
Mega lets go!
This was great but Roger forgot X and Y had a full pokedex! lol I do hope there are some later pokemon added to this region though.
We, Kalos fans, are eating well today.
Yessr
THE VOID CENTURY OF POKEMON!!
Imagine the starters get a mega evolution and we get mega charizard z.
Sucks to be everyone who wanted money-wasting remakes for Unova.
It would have to be post kalos war for megas to exist though right?
I know it makes little sense since they're already based on ancient runes but what about 'modern form' Unown? Let me explain: we could FINALLY read MODERN pokemon language since it's different from Unown messages. I get that they could've just used them since they're the alphabet pokemon but that could also be a hint too. Not of a Johto remake but Unown specifically. It wouldn't be the first time in the day that they threw us a curve ball.
Also because unless they completely forgot about Unown, why would they wait like what 5 or so years since their first presents to wait til now when it's not even Johto?
it will happen in the future so your other favorite pokemons that no have a mega evolution will have a mega evolution now in the future. LETS GOO MEGAS!
Soooo my question is are we getting future Kalos after the first games or are we getting past Kalos in the aftermath of the war!?
Also if it’s a legends game with legends style gameplay are the “boss pokemon” rampaging the mega mons gone rogue!
Feel like this game release when new switch drops just like last legend game
Finally they skipping a year to make a game instead of pushing one out every November
They skipped years before. 2015 had nothing too.
I just think it's because it wasn't sustainable anymore lol.
People say MEgas... I wonder if Bond Phenomenom would be expanded, added to the lore of the games, althought chances are it wont.
Even better! Woooooo! We get Our HD Mega's early , then somewhere far off in 3(+) years on future technology, We can get gen5 anyways!
Pal - what??
POKEMON Z IS FINALLY REAL LMAO LETS GOOOOO
