As it has been indicated in the past, every Pokémon in the [[Pokémon world|world]] has not yet been discovered, and regions in which these Pokémon are native are revealed gradually.
As has been indicated in the past, not every Pokémon in the [[Pokémon world|world]] has been discovered yet, and regions to which unknown Pokémon are native will be revealed gradually.


Currently, there are four [[generation]]s of Pokémon games, each with their own set of new Pokémon, moves, and several other things that have become the pattern of the [[main series]] so far.
Currently, there are four [[generation]]s of Pokémon games, each with their own set of then-new Pokémon, moves and several other things that have become the pattern of the [[main series]] so far. Although nothing is known at this time about Generation V or beyond, the patterns which have applied to all four current generations, are expected to continue to hold true in the future.


What is so far assumed from the patterns that have run from [[Generation I]] to the present about Generation V and beyond is as follows:
What is so far assumed from the patterns that have run from [[Generation I]] to the present about Generation V and beyond is as follows:
*Initially, there will be two versions of the new games, each with their own capture rates and at least one unique legendary Pokémon. A third game will be released some time later, in which the unique Legendary Pokémon may both be caught.
*Initially, there will be two versions of the new game, which will differ in capture rates and [[version exclusives]]. A more extensive third version will be released some time later, in which most Pokémon previously exclusive to one of the two versions will be available, but other Pokémon found in both versions will be missing.
**'''Evidence:''' The three-version formula has been in every generation, with the sole exception of Fire Red and Leaf Green. In addition, the third version has had both version-specific legendaries since version-specific legendaries were introduced in Generation III.
**'''Evidence:''' The three-version formula has been used in every generation, with the sole exception of [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen]] (to which the two-version formula does apply).  
*A new [[region]] will be explored, isolated from previous regions. This region's [[route]]s will begin their numbering as X01, where X is the current generation minus 2.
*A new [[region]] will be explored.
**'''Evidence:''' [[Hoenn]]'s routes are numbered starting at {{rtn|101}} ({{Gen|III}}). [[Sinnoh]]'s routes are numbered starting at {{rtn|201}} ({{Gen|IV}}).
**'''Evidence:''' Each of the four generations has been centered in a new region relative to its time: [[Kanto]] in Generation I, [[Johto]] in Generation II, [[Hoenn]] in Generation III, and [[Sinnoh]] in Generation IV.
*A previously unknown [[Pokémon professor]] will reside in this region, will have {{type2|Grass}}, {{type2|Fire}}, and {{type2|Water}} Pokémon that the player will start with one of, and will be named after a tree in the English version.
*A previously unknown [[Pokémon professor]] will reside in this region and have new {{type2|Grass}}, {{type2|Fire}} and {{type2|Water}} Pokémon available for the player to select for his or her adventure. The professor will be named after a tree in the English version.
**'''Evidence:''' Professors [[Professor Oak|Oak]], [[Professor Elm|Elm]], [[Professor Birch|Birch]], and [[Professor Rowan|Rowan]], their [[starter Pokémon]].
**'''Evidence:''' Professors [[Professor Oak|Oak]], [[Professor Elm|Elm]], [[Professor Birch|Birch]], [[Professor Rowan|Rowan]] and their [[starter Pokémon]].
*More new Pokémon will be introduced. Some may be [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|evolved forms]] or [[Baby Pokémon|pre-evolutions]] of Pokémon now known. The amount of new Pokémon introduced will likely not be below 100 or above 150.
*More new Pokémon will be introduced. Some may be [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|evolved forms]] or [[Baby Pokémon|pre-evolutions]] of Pokémon now known. The amount of new Pokémon introduced will likely not be below 100 or above 151.
**'''Evidence:''' Each generation after the first has introduced at least two Pokémon related to those of previous generations. The amount of Pokémon released each generation was 151, 100, 135, and 107.

*The new [[regional Pokédex]] will begin with the starter Pokémon and their evolutionary kin as #001-#009, in the order of Grass-Fire-Water. It will lack at least some Pokémon. The [[National Dex]] numbers of new Pokémon will start with #494 for the Grass-type starter and continue on at least up to #593 if at least 100 Pokémon are added.

**'''Evidence:''' [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Dex number|Hoenn's regional Pokédex]] leaves out 184 Pokémon. [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Dex number|Sinnoh's regional Pokédex]] leaves out 342 Pokémon.
