Nintendo could potentially make its first 3DS Pokémon game part of the {{bp|main series}}, the most recent titles of which are {{bp|Pokémon Black and White Version|Black Version}} and {{bp|Pokémon Black and White Version|White Version}}. Traditionally, these paired versions are followed by a "third version" - and it is already known that a third version is in the pipeline. Some fans are also expecting remade versions of the third-generation {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, similar to the previously released {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} and {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}.

However, this game could be part of the popular {{bp|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon}} or {{bp|Pokémon Ranger (series)|Ranger}} series, a reincarnation of older games such as {{bp|Pokémon Snap}}, or even something entirely new to fully showcase the wonders of 3D. With any luck, more details will come soon; the 3DS has its first release, in Japan, on Feb. 26.

Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has added fuel to the fire of speculation surrounding an upcoming Pokémon game for the 3DS. Speaking in a recent interview, Iwata laid hints about how the Pokémon franchise would handle the development of a portable 3D game. Although 3D elements would be involved, he said, 2D components would still be involved.

Satoru Iwata has been president of Nintendo since 2000, and has producer and executive producer credits in many Pokémon titles.

"I have no hesitation about the prospect that a Pokémon-franchise title will be released for Nintendo 3DS.
