We do need a new gimmick. Gen 2 had the Special split, Gen 3 had abilities, Gen 4 had the Physical/Special split, Gen 5 had...nothing meta-worthy, really, Gen 6 had Mega Evolutions, and Gen 7 had Z-Moves (and if you wanna count it, Alolan forms).

Armored Evolutions?

If that means we can finally use that Mewtwo armor from the movie, then I'd be all up for that. </div>
Gen V Meta was so by the books that the biggest dramas that rocked the fandom were when people used moves on Pokemon that weren't usually used on them. Where you around when the BS Somalia drama happened? A top level player quit the game and had a hissy fit because someone used a move on Jellicent that wasn't considered the typical.
Of course, the meta being like this meant it was so much fun to mess with the norms and create some truly interesting teams and workarounds. I found the perfect counter to any weather warring strategy (Murkrow of all things) and managed to make a seriously effective bug-mono team.
I even made Pelipper godly, back when it was considered to be one of the worst Pokemon ever.
Weather warring, Dragon Tail Hazards and extreme stall were all pretty big.The real cal howard said:

I just now realized how dumb the logo for Sword looks. Looks less like a sword and a weirdly anthropomorphic wolf without legs.

Peter already mentioned how he assumed the new Legendary Trio will be based off the Knights of the Round. I'd be totally down with three Wolf-like Pokemon based off the Knights to compliment the Musketeers like Cobalion.

It's rumored that the legendary pokémon will be based on Skoll and Hati.

Germanic and Britonic cultures have inter-mixed a lot. It's why the main language of England, English, is a Germanic language and not Celtic or Romantic. Later Britonic history involved a lot of Nordic influence if my understanding of that period is correct, and of course their mythology transferred a lot too.
Of course my know-how of that period of history is shaky.

In addition to what @Darkanine has said, the legendary pokémon from Gen 6 are apparently based on Nordic mythology and Meltan, a pretty recent pokémon, makes a possible nod to the Kalos war (region based in France).Jimboydejuan12 said:

Ahh, that's really cool then. The war could be a reference to the Battle of Hastings then.
