Default Pokémon Conquest

So looks like The Pokemon Company didn't announce Pokemon Grey at Jump Festa. Instead we're getting something arguably more interesting. A Pokemon crossover project with Toei's Nobunga's Ambition franchise. Considering the Fire Emblem fans on this board, I'm assuming an Pokemon SRPG is going to be very interesting for them!

Update US Release Date: June 18th

I am actually really interested in this. It looks like it could really broaden the pokemon series, maybe lead to other crossovers etc.

Hoping it isn't Japan only, I'll probably import if it isn't since it isn't a 3DS game (at least I don't think it is).

My twitter feed is going crazy from the info. @_@

Edit for another image:



Edit edit:

TRANSLATED INFO COMING VERY SOON TO POKEBEACH. Gin is translating game stats and stuff, looks like a combo of both RPG stats and pokemon stats mixed.

And while I have my doubts, I'm hoping it's successful. Looks fun to play

Aw, no Mystery Dungeon :<

This does look interesting, looking forward to more news on this game. I love SRPGs.

I honestly don't see why they wouldn't, seeing as most 'Mon Spin-offs have made it to the US.

Evidently you move up in military ranking based on how good of a pokemon trainer you are. More soon but I'm about to go on my break...

I 'like' the idea of mewtwo suddenly "teleporting" itself several hundreds years earlier before he was even created...

Sounds interesting, though I'm not overly familiar with the Nubanaga's Ambition franchise. I'll be keeping an eye on this.

This has some serious potential. I saw the words Fire Emblem and Pokemon, and was instantly interested. I really hope this turns out well!

this looks amazing, i want it now

looks like a good idea for a 3ds game though, so importing might not be workable :(

It's DS. And I think it will be localized. I mean, they localized Pokemon Mystery Dungeon and it did awesome even though nobody knew about the older games in the Mystery Dungeon series in the west. Dungeon crawlers and SRPGs are a similar niche as well.

what the ? I cant believe my nightmares are coming true. Seriously Pokemon crossovers? However this sounds kind of cool. But cant they just put samurai in the games rather than this?


I wanted a Pokemon Brawl Game. Actually like Super Smash.But with all the pokemon! Think of that! *Squeals*

Serebii said this is for DS, but could it actually be for the 3DS? Serebii and this thread are all I've heard of this, so just wondering.

I think someone at Game Freak took the Moemon hype a little too far, but I like what I see.
