Nintendo has never not released some sort of third version
but they HAVE shaken up traditions, like there being two sequels in Black/White 2
There are unused areas and plot points in Kalos like:
the locked doors in the Power Plant
the TRAIN STATION that currently goes to nowhere in Couriway Town
THIS DUDE:
There were unexplained ghost girls too but moving on:
THE DEFINING FEATURE OF AN ENTIRE TOWN WAS ITS AUSPICIOUS SUNDIAL:
a Hex Maniac in Anistar mentions that THERE ARE MOONDIALS TOO
AND OKAY SO:
ZYGARDE gets introuded to be much more complicated than first presented in XY, with a variety of formes and shit? Pretty much being a core being that gathers little symbiotes up to be a bigger creature
Even though four new Zygarde variants are introduced in the movies/anime, they’ve yet to make their way into the game
The THIRD MEMBER of the Legendary Trio has new formes. that have not been in the game.
What do we know about Zygarde Cores?
From Bulbapedia: “ [Zygarde cores] are self-aware and can communicate via telepathy, monitoring the ecosystem around them. Zygarde Cores get their energy through photosynthesis.

HE IS POWERED THROUGH THE SUN
Now this is is obviously all conjecture, but THEORY/HOPE:
Pokemon Sun/Moon may be the Johto to Kalos’ Kanto
3DS carts could wholly hold two regions – They can hold up to 8GB, and ORAS clocked in right around 2; yeah, it may chug but it is DOABLE, entirely
The Nintendo Direct (and Magearna) hae shown there ARE new pokemon, so it’s almost certainly not “just” a 3rd iteration of Gen 6
BUT there is a lot of conjectural evidence showing we are not done in Kalos, like a literal train station
and there are a LOT of sun and moon themes present in Kalos
Maybe I’m making things up and seeing patterns in tea leaves because I’d love another two-region, 16 badge adventure
but here is my Game Theory thank you for your time
Instead of just looking up into the sky, you’re actually gazing down into the infinite cosmic abyss, with only gravity holding you onto the surface of the earth.
DONT ASK ME THIS, THIS IS HOW THE TROJAN WAR STARTED, I DONT WANT THIS MAN
Right away, Aphrodite popped into my head.
And then I’m just like, “DAMMIT, DID YOU LEARN NOTHING FROM PARIS? YOU ARE AN EMBARRASSMENT, AND NOW ALL THE TROJANS ARE DEAD. I HOPE YOU’RE HAPPY.”
If you are ever actually in this situation, pro-tip: name Persephone. Half the goddesses will be too surprised to smite you immediately and while Hades won’t do you any favors he may at least high-five you while your on your way down.
Another tip: name Mesperyian. Not only will you shock everyone, including her (since Aphrodite was a jealous ho who burnt half her face off), but you’ll win Hades’ favour. As his most beloved daughter, anything that praises her will make you a kind human to her, an okay human to him, and a genuinely good person to anyone else.
I heartily endorse this alternative answer.
I love how all of this advice leads to “please Hades at all costs.”
Raccoons are very smart. They can open complex locks in under 10 tries, and can still repeat the process if the locks are rearranged or turned upside down. They’ll also remember solutions to problems for up to 3 years. Source
my social studies teacher once told us “human beings are the most selfish of all. even when someone dies, you shed tears only because they are no more around to provide you with whatever they had been for so long”
and it has been 3 years since she said this and this is still what i think about at night
