Pokemon Sun and Moon?

[Koh]

Gen 3's remakes were pretty lacking honestly.  A lot of the emerald content was missing, especially the Battle Frontier, which was one of the defining things about Emerald.  Instead, we got a copy paste Battle Maison.

My hope is the games will be more free form.  The worst thing about Black and White was how stupidly linear they were.  Unlike the first 2 gens that had branching paths, and thus a choice on what the player wants to do next, Black and White closed off half the circle before the League, meaning you literally went in a straight, zig-zaggy line with no deviations.  For a game series that touts exploration as one of its biggest draws, that's pretty shitty.
