::4. Your point is unclear. I argued that that if the Generation V main versions were released for the DS, the third game would either be released for the new platform and lose compatibility with its predecessors, or fall behind the technology of its time. You seem to agree with that analysis, although for some reasons you applied it to Diamond and Pearl (whether or not they will be compatible with the next generation is quite beside the point).

::5. 2011 is the safest assumption; it is a reasonable timeframe for both the next system ''and'' generation, and to say that one could be pushed further back while the other would have to come sooner, requires a better explanation than the one you have provided. Once again, new Pokémon and region are not sufficient conditions for a new generation. Had Gold and Silver been released for the Game Boy, they would have ended up being a shadow of their true selves; the decision to release them for a new Game Boy system gave way to the creation of the term "generation" in Pokémon's context. _-[[User:Unown Lord|Unown Lord]] 10:59, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
