tbh i hope you're right!! i am really happy and excited either way, but bringing back the old gang would be best case scenario ;v;

yeahdhskjs lord knows im gonna blow $60 on it anywaydhjksf WE’LL SEE NEXT WEEK AT E3!!!!!!

i'm pretty sure according to the initial leak that first mentioned let's go, it said that red and blue were going to play a role in the story, basically confirming that the protags are a new generation. also confirming that leaf probably doesn't appear :/ of course thats no concrete info from an official source, but considering everything that was said in that leak turned out to be true, i'm not feeling hopeful :c i feel like leaf gets done so dirty because red is considered the "true" protag

hi!!! yes i know about the leaks!! ive been a pokemon switch stan from like. day one so i know everything lol. and yeah! i get that that one leak got a lot of stuff right, but i still have a lot of hope that these are the original trio!!! fjdksl this is gonna be kind of a psa to everyone

(sorry @ everyone i know i said i was done but this is the last one: forgot to talk about it in my last post)

1) lets go! only features the 151st pokemon (w/ some alola forms), so if red and green were to be part of the story that would imply timeskip, and timeskip would imply that at least somewhat newer pokemon would/SHOULD be in kanto (at least to gen 2, like how kanto in hgss had some new pokemon on the routes). but the pokemon are only from the original yellow game, so theres A LOT of hope that this is set in the original yellow timeline. we’ll find out next week if green is there this is definitely pokemon yellow!!!!!!!!

2) someone else brought this up as well, but rocket is there, again, with pretty much the same outfits as before, so unless they wanna make a what???? like fifth comeback?????????? i doubt it. most likely the same rocket timeline from yellow!!! (plus it looks like silph co in that fight they had in the trailer!!!!!! im hopeful guys!!!!!)

3) look at the protag art!!!!!!! VERY similar to leaf/blue & red(yellow ver)!!!!!

dnsjffdj they redesigned leaf a bit more but i mean LOOK AT RED. THAT IS RED. HOW CAN THAT NOT BE RED?????????????????????

4) i really dont put a lot of faith into the “leaks” (i made a whole twitter thread about rumors vs. leaks). a lot of them got it wrong with that post-apocolyptic, 100 year timeskip, underwater kanto, all that other bullhdjs so like i said in this post until such a time comes where these protags are not supposed to be red and leaf im going to act as if they are!!!! even if they get different “official” names as long as green is the rival theyre gonna stay red and leaf to me!!! so i guess we’ll find out next week during the demo or the direct hopefully!!!!!!!! fingers crossed guys!!!!!!!! 🤞🤞

bonus 5) theres this:

so im gonna. assume they mean our first adventure. when they say our first adventure. if it was gonna be a new adventure they would say that gamefreak doesnt fuck around (much). 

hopefully this gives you a little more hope keep your head up!!!!!! i have faith in lets go pikachu and eevee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💕💕💕💕

edit: (my opinion) i think if gamefreak wanted to make a story that was different from the original yellow they wouldve made it more obvious. like it would be a game that would have an actual proper legendary in it with a pretty different story, especially if the literal legends red and green were going to be a part of it, but from the trailer all i got from it was…….same…old kanto???? no “HERES A BIG ASS NEW LEGENDARY TEASE” or anything at all like that???? like that trailer just screams old school????????? like gamefreak may be a tease but theyre not entirely subtle, if they wanted to do a new story with red and green they would make it a bit more obvious. so everything combined:

only 151st pokemon in it + no new story/exciting hints + no box cover legendary + protag similarities + “Your first adventure in a new style” = yellow remake

Is it a “hard” pink or more pastel-like??

its VERY PASTEL!!!!!!!!! pretty much exactly the colors on the pics!!!!!! 💕💕💕💕

pink // white

It's a kanto remake setting in the story where team rocket is active (as in frlg/rgby) so the kids ARE Red and Leaf I won't accept anything else im sorry idc if they name them anything else its Red and Leaf end of story !

HELL YEAH HELL YEAH HELL YEAH HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I CANT WAIT TO COME HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kanto! Kanto! Kanto! I had to play the original games on an emulator so I'm so excited for this!

YES MY DUDE GO PLAY AN EMULATOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have one on my phone and i play frlg all the timejfkds

Conflictingshipping gives me sm shoujo vibes I love it

SAME MY DUDE I CAN LITERALLY IMAGINE FRLG IN AN ENTIRE SHOUJO MANGA SETTING WITH THE CHEESY SPARKLE PANELS AND EVERYTHING

Do you have any haircuts you'd like to give Leaf since she's going to be customizable? I'm hoping they have her original hairstyle, but if not, I'd love a cute bob cut for Leaf because she'd be adorable! (and no matter what she's being named Leaf it is the LAW)

IM SUPER HOPING THAT SHE IS CUSTOMIZABLE!!!!! if she is im just gonna give her her hair down!! (if that option looks good) and if not id keep it in the ponytail!! (i usually like to keep the characters the same as the art) i dont mind changing the outfit as much but i usually like to keep that the same too!!!!!! I HOPE THEY MAKE HER ORIGINAL FRLG/RGBY HAIRSTYLE A CUSTOMIZABLE OPTION I WOULD FUCKING CRY!!!!!! yall already KNOW what hair i would give herjdksf i would die for my girl………………..

and FACTS MY DUDE!!!!!!!!! im naming her leaf i dont give a DAMN what they call her gf can kiss my buttocks

Do you think that the LGPE Leaf and Green dynamic will be different than the FRLF? Will they be different characters for you? Just curious of your thoughts!

i really hope the dynamic stays the same or gets better!!!!! honestly ill take green as he is id be SUPER happy with frlg green!!!!! for me theyre gonna stay the same i dont CARE this is just frlg in hd for me lol,..

BRO. I am 100% on this hype train with you. We got our girl making the comeback with the ponytail. We got our starters. Now we just need Green and our conflictingshipping puzzle is complete!!!!
