FEH and DL reward you for to play. If you do dialy quest they give you a lot of itmes that let you play almost forever. Those games are kind to FTP players. If a pokemon game could do the same it'd be neat!
Pokemon rumble and pokemon shuffle are bad in that field tho...

As Serebii has said multiple times, it's very likely this conference is not just about games, so what other entertainment areas do you think Pokémon could expand on? It's pretty much everywhere already (movies, TCG, anime, merch, hardware, even freaking smart assistants) so what new business area is left?
It provided a look at Pokemon existing in their habits and feeling like living creatures in a way mainline games still don't 20 years later.
It's not like they have to reinvent the wheel.. They already have a mobile TCG game, though it's limited to tablets right now... They just need to rework it, include a single player campaign, and make the UI more phone friendly.
Just a reminder about how many pokemon spinoffs the DS got:
- Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Blue Rescue team
- Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky
- Pokemon Dash
- Pokemon Trozei
- Pokemon Ranger
- Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia
- Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs
- Pokemon Conquest
- Pokemon Typing Adventure
and how many spinoffs the 3DS got:
- Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity
- Pokemon Super Myster Dungeon
- Pokemon Battle Trozei
- Pokemon Shuffle
- Pokemon Art Academy
- Pokemon Picross
- Detective Pikachu
- Pokemon Rumble World
- Pokemon Rumble Blast
and so far on Switch :
- Pokken Tournament DX
- Pokemon Quest
Well, obviously not all of them are even good, and some of them are different games with just a pokemon skin on top, but it was still way better than what we have today.
Come on TPC, we need something more.

You forgot Pokemon Quest for Switch...
I can understand why though lol
Magic replaced it quite easily. Besides, a Heartstone style game where packs can't be redeemed and aimed towards non-hardcore would easily be a bigger money maker. Like MTGO, Pokemon TCG Online is aimed towards more of the hardcore base. Pokemon needs a new game with modern features aimed towards casuals/new people.
And Detective Pikachu, Pokemon Rumble Blast, and Pokemon Rumble World for 3DS.
No areas left but I wouldn't be surprised if we go got some comic (not manga) or a Netflix series of some sort. I don't think these are big enough announcements to have a press conference tho.
If Detective Pikachu pulled in a profit at the Box Office we can see them discuss that along with maybe hints at a future movie.
Detective Pikachu port to the Switch and if I'm correct the 3DS version released in the West didn't have all the content that was released in Japan.
A sequel to the Detective Pikachu game. I didn't play the 3DS version and won't play unless it's Switch bound but I heard the game sets up well for a sequel.
Something for mobile. 🤷🏽♂️ Like with Pokémon Go or every other mobile release they've had it's going to be either a hit or miss.
I don't see them covering anything based on Pokémon cards unless they tie it in with the DP movie or gen 8.
Maybe a new anime short series which I would find exciting.
I'm just hoping for a a Pokémon game releasing sooner then later for the Switch to hold us over until Sword Shield releases.
Gonna repost this here with a cleaner writing style. My guess is:
-Pokemon Journey, Free 2 Start with seasonal DLC.
-All region mobile RPG with new story.
-Brave Exvius style towns, cities, and some dungeons. Routes are automatic random battles, trainers are battled as random surprise events.
-Gyms and a proper league.
-Seasonal DLC is 1 new region its Pokemon, etc.
-Slowly free expansion DLC is added for PVP, minigames, and other gameplay.
-New level system to allow Pokemon between regions, Pokemon Go style stats, but it keeps the turn based battles.
-Some crosstalk with the main games, perhaps event Pokemon quests to transfer them over innthe style of Manaphy and Pokemon Ranger.

Best part is that it had a spending cap and didn't have gameplay that kept asking for money
Novels, it turns out that GRRM collab was a Pokémon series all this time.
But more seriously I figure they'll focus on already existing branches, something involving VR is a possibility though, Labo or otherwise.
Wild guesses: A Pokémon theme park. Or Pokémon x Disneyland
OR...they did it and made Pokémon real.

Pokémon VR?
And I mean legit VR, not (just?) Labo.
Seems like the natural evolution of Pokémon GO's augmented reality...

this sounds terrible
the fucking meltan shit is already bad enough
HEY GUYS!!! POKEMON SNAP LABO VR IS COMING!!!!?!?!
but really...that would be awesome with the Labo Camera...
a line of ultra-high-end speakers that look like Noivern's head.
But seriously, more films? More live-action+cg combo films and more phone games sound like the most effective way to steadily get mindshare with people who don't play the regular games.
I mean you say that, but the Great Ball being on the banner is an odd choice considering it's not really iconic.
