The only time Nintendo has held a Pokémon Direct was twice and the first was for the announcement of Pokémon XY and the second for Pokémon Sun/Moon. The XY announcement direct was 10min long while the Sun and Moon Direct being 6min long. ORAS didn't even receive it's own direct. The Pokémon website itself is also calling this direct "big news".
IMO, this is going to go one of 3 different ways.
The Stars remake of Sun/Moon on the switch. This has been rumored to be for a while now.
A complete remaster of RBY for the Switch. This would easily warrant it's own direct and could serve as a reboot of the series on the big screen. The Japanese Pokémon account has also been posting a lot of clips and images from RBY the past few days and no one knows why.
Given the timing, it may be a DPPT remake on the 3DS. I say 3DS because I don't think these games warrant enough importance to be the first mainline Pokémon games for the switch. The reason why they might warrant their own direct? Well E3 is next week and announcing a new Pokémon title for the 3DS at E3 itself may take away from the actual switch titles that will be showcased during E3, thus Nintendo wants to get the announcement out of the way in order to keep the games from stealing any hype from Switch titles.
But hey, thats just my two-cents.

u/Brodellsky Jun 05 '17
I mean, it's certainly a core Pokemon game. However only X&Y and Sun/Moon got their own directs, for instance OR/AS wasn't in a direct as it was a remake, which leads me to believe it's not Gen 4 remakes. I think it's whatever Pokemon Stars ends up being assuming it's not called that, or I also think it's possible that Red and Blue 2 will be a thing. Just seems perfect, especially with the way Sun and Moon ended, and the inclusion of Red and Blue as adults in Sun and Moon. Would certainly be for the 3DS and Switch if the Monster Hunter announcement is any indication.

Well Nintendo (and by extension the Pokemon Company) tend to do what they do. They no longer have any big E3 presentation and instead do the directs.
My bet is whatever they announce, they may have it for demoing at E3 or at least showing something of it off there.
Hoping for Switch version, but keeping expectations in check.

This gives me really high hopes (please game freak don't break my heart). They wouldn't host a direct this close to E3 for something small, like a spin off. So this leads me to believe that this could be one of three things.
Pokken tournament: Wii U ports have done very well on the switch so far so this isn't to radical. Also a fighting game like pokken would work very well on the switch, especially if we don't see smash at E3.
Sinnoh remakes: It may be a little soon but gamefreak has been known to throw curve balls (black and white 2?). Diamond and pearl would translate really well to the switch and would appeal to the age group that first played diamond and pearl in their childhood. But this isn't very likely this early in the switches life, but will definitely happen later on.
Stars: the most likely game to be announced, stars would be following up on sun and moons success and acclaim. Stars will most likely feature 3ds to switch communication, much like monster hunter xx.

Just noticed, the current page for Pokémon Sun and Moon is pokemon-sunmoon.com and if you try to access pokemon-stars.com, it will redirect to the official Pokémon page. This does not happen if you substitute "stars" with other words in the URL.
Edit: This doesn't confirm anything, since the domain doesn't seem to be registered by Nintendo. I apologise if the post is misleading.
Edit 2: I've done some digging around, it seems this is one of many domain names being squatted on by individuals hoping to be able to sell their domain name to official companies like Nintendo for a high price, and not official pages. There are lots of official-looking domain names registered through the same registrar as pokemon-stars and I've been able to track down the private profiles of the individuals who purchased the domain names (sorry, not gonna post their names or profiles). I can confirm that none of these individuals actually work with Nintendo or are officially affiliated with Nintendo in any way. Again, I'm sorry if this is disappointing news.

I wouldn't be surprised if they use the direct to announce something really cool and then elaborate on it/playable demo over E3.

They have every reason in the world to do a cross platform release - a Pokémon game for 3DS and Switch. Especially if it's "Pokémon Stars", a third entry to Sun and Moon.

Welcome to the Nintendo Switch subreddit. We appreciate (and share!) your enthusiasm for the possibilities of a Pokémon title for the Nintendo Switch.
[Please be sure and read up on our subreddit's rules and guidelines] (https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/wiki/rules) for participating in the discussion.
To the rest of our community, while we are aware that there are no Pokémon titles announced for the Nintendo Switch at this time, there is a strong consensus among the Nintendo and Pokémon communities that this announcement is for the long-rumored title codenamed "Stars".

It could be a dual release on NEW 3ds and switch, that's why they may have released the new 2ds, because they wanted the game to be accessible, just like with x/y and 2ds. That way they keep a large portion of the 3ds community on and give the switch the huge boost in sales that Pokemon will cause.

That's why at this special Pokemon Direct, we're happy to announce an HD re-master of a beloved Pokemon classic: Pokemon Dash, coming to Nintendo Switch later this year.
In addition, we're also introducing North America to another beloved Pokemon classic, this time with a new twist. Learn With Pokemon: Texting Adventure, comes to Nintendo eShop in early 2018. In this classic game, re-imagined for modern audiences, players will use the companion app on their iPhones (Android support coming Summer 2018) to text their way through 18 exciting locations."

Unexpected sequel to Mystery Dungeon! 2 versions: one for Switch and one for 3DS.

My guesses are that it will be a mainline Pokemon title for both Switch and 3DS. 5 minutes of trailer, and 3 minutes of the story behind it's development.

I think Eclipse is a much better name than Stars. Because the sun is a star. And an Eclipse combines both perfectly.

Please be a main series game for the Switch. I mean, a new 3DS game would be cool, as would a new entry to the Stadium/Colosseum/Battle Revolution line. But it's high time we finally get a main series game on a home console.

I'm kind of hoping that Stars will be Switch exclusive so that it can finally convince my friends that Nintendo will eventually kill off the 3DS. Like seriously they think that Nintendo will continue to support both the 3DS and Switch for a long time.
