Pokemon MMO & Pokemon Wii NOT coming say Platinum creators

A Pokemon MMO or Wii RPG is something that fans of the series have definitely desired. However in a recent interview regarding Pokemon Platinum, the creators of the game stated that the above two games are not likely, saying that Pokemon is not headed in that direction.

To quote:

We asked Masuda if there was any chance that we would see the next major Pokémon game on the Wii and whether the series might go fully online, as many fans have expressed a desire for. He seemed skeptical.

“At this point, we’re not thinking of going in that direction. Trading is a core concept of Pokémon. So when you’re trading, you meet with a friend and decide which one you want and which one they want. I would like to emphasize real-world communication. You don’t see each other online.” He pointed across the table and then back to him, and the translator laughed before explaining, ” It’s like right now – we’re meeting each other in person and asking questions instead of chatting on the phone.”
