Please, Game Freak, the Pokémon Black and White bait has gone too far
We’re putting on our clown makeup once again as the official Pokémon X account has referenced Pokémon Black and White. The fifth generation of Pokémon games has been the subject of remake and remaster rumors for years now, and we’re getting impatient.
The gen 5 Pokémon games, as well as their direct sequels, are often cited as the best Pokémon games ever made, but despite the huge reverence for the Unova region and its stories, Pokémon has yet to remake, remaster, or even port the DS games in nearly 15 years. Of course, Pokémon fans love to speculate, and we’ve seen hints at Pokémon Black and White remakes everywhere recently.
The most recent instance of these hints was this post from the official Pokémon X account, asking for our “favorite moments” from the two games. These types of posts aren’t uncommon, but considering Black and White’s anniversary isn’t until September, it seems like an odd choice to post this on a random July day. This out-of-the-blue post alone wouldn’t be enough to suggest a remake, but when you pair it with Pokémon Go’s Dual Destiny season and Go Tour: Unova from earlier this year, and the upcoming Black Bolt and White Flare TCG sets, it all seems to be more than just a coincidence.
