Pokemon Sun and Moon could be headed to the Nintendo Switch
Multiple sources have confirmed Nintendo is currently working on a version of Pokemon Sun and Moon for its Switch console.
A previous report claiming the Nintendo Switch will have a Mario, The Legend of Zelda, and Pokemon game within six months of its release appear to be holding true as a new report claims we could be seeing a new version of both Pokemon Sun and Moon on the upcoming console.
The report cites multiple sources who claim the Switch version of Pokemon Sun and Moon are already well
If the report holds water, this would mark the first time a mainline Pokemon series made its way to separate Nintendo consoles within the same video game generation. This could also boost sales for the Switch as we can’t imagine fans of the series not wanting to get their hands on a console version of the handheld game.

You must have missed the amazing lineup of games they released for the Wii U, along with Mario, Mario Kart, Zelda, and Splatoon headed to the new system. But hey, if them leveraging Pokemon to support their new system is a deal breaker, then rock on. It's not like they've sold over 279 million Pokemon games and it's one of the top selling franchises of all time.

Da fuck are you on about? They're not supposed to make pokemon games anymore?

Pokemon... and Mario, and Zelda, and Pikmin, and Splatoon, and Donkey Kong, and bastardizing Metroid, and Fire Emblem, and Xenoblade, and saving the occasional beloved 3rd party IP, and all the Mario spinoffs (Paper Mario, Mario & Luigi, Mario Kart, miscellaneous Mario Sports titles, Mario Party, Mariomariomario), and Kirby, and Pushmo, and Boxboy, and Picross, and Animal Crossing, and forgetting what made Starfox good, and the occasional middling Yoshi game, and Smash Bros, and trying weird shit like Codename S.T.E.A.M., Chibi-Robo, and HD re-releases.
It runs out of steam a bit in the end there but this is all stuff from the current generation. -
Wow you get triggered about Nintendo even quicker than I do.
They still make Mario and Zelda too so there's that. Pokemon is like effortless money for them. Nowadays they just look at random objects sitting around the room and base pokemon off them. But it prints money for Nintendo and it moves units so let them have it. There will be other first party games on Switch to play, I can guarantee that much.

Especially if it's cross-compatible as it sounds like they're working on it.

Launch year lineup from editor of EG: https://twitter.com/tomphillipsEG/status/799640919297368068
It hasn't been leaked yet but I won't be surprised to see a Smash reveal in January.-
I'm kind of hoping it's just a port of smash simply because I still haven't had the chance to try out the DLC characters

Oooh, combining the content from the WiiU and 3DS would be awesome.
