I don't think it will. What are your opinions?

As long as Nintendo can draw a profit from the series, there will be Pokémon games. I don't anticipate Game Freak running out of ideas or jumping the shark anytime soon, but if years from now they do, I doubt Nintendo would even then drop the series. It's a matter of corporate planning than anything.

That'd be like never coming out with another Mario game of course it isn't the last.

They make too much money off of pokemon to drop the series.

They will never stop until the interest in Pokemon fades away.

A lot of people have been asking this question repeatedly, and I fail to understand why.

Anyways, like the others, I agree with GreenLiquid's opinion:

Basically, what GreenLiquid said.

I really doubt they would even think about dropping the game. It's among their best selling games.

As long as the creative spirit of Pokemon never dies, Pokemon as a series won't. Despite all the money to be drawn from the franchise, the series itself is so manipulatable that so many more ideas can be incorporated than what's already there. We can have Gods of Gods. So eat it, Arceus! There's always gonna be someone better!

(Oh, and I'm going to insert another useless request for a vaccuum, gravity, and annihilation Legendary Pokemon.)

No, the end isn't near.
Nintendo is making too much profit to just drop it.
If they do that, many people will probably riot....

My guess-no scratch that, i know there is going to be a fifth generation, nintendo would have to be threatened at triple gun-point by, i don't know, the army not to make a 5th generation

The way I see it, the series may come to an end, but games will always come out for Pokemon so long as Nintendo (and companies like Game Freak) is able to breathe.

I figure there will be a console game next for the competitive series (much like Colloseum or something along those lines; not Pokepark) that will preview something new for Pokemon (either new Pokemon or possible a new direction for the series).

Then, if a 5th gen or a new direction in the series is introduced, we get a DSi Pokemon game that may or may not display the game in full 3-D (or better pseudo 3-D graphics).

I've posted these ideas somewhere before.

I kind of wish it was the last one. But it won't be.

i think there will be at least one moar generation till it ends
it must be hard to complete the dex with about 550 pokemon

Now here's a vote we can all agree on.

Well, I don't see the series ending all that soon; it's still plenty a cash cow and generally legacies like these don't die quickly. I'm guessing we'll see a 7th gen, even.

i knew that^^
guess what ive voted (rly hard) XD

Well, hmmm... see, er... Generation V has been announced so... yes? Heartgold SoulSilver WILL be the last ones.

Look at the Final Fantasy Series

XIII stand-a-lone games and still going strong

Well we now all know that the Pokemon series of games we liked will be coming to an end but a NEW RPG will be made for Pokemon. I'm kinda curious on it.

The new RPG may or may not be fifth generation, that still hasn't been discussed. As a whole, Pokemon will definitely not go out. As an RPG series, Pokemon has been confirmed to not go out... so...yeah.

I think it's pretty clear now.

As do I mag. I'm debating if I should lock this thread or not.
