Yes, it's been confirmed a loooong time ago that Pokémon of all generations appear in the game.
Well, that warrants a facepalm, I never even bothered to check Google after I missed that…kinda important update, haha (boy do I hate my frontal lobe and shoddy mobile web browsing for that…). But now that I know, that's great! I was kind of scratching my head as to why they weren't in the original Pokémon Rumble (maybe memory issues, dunno), but it never really bothered me too much, I felt the 48 stages between the two modes made more than a complete game for WiiWare at the time. But whatever the case, to talk about the series in respect to the prospects for the coming sequel, I think that WiiWare was the perfect opportunity for Ambrella to launch an experiment as to how that sort of a Pokémon fighting (or real-time whatever in 3D) game would be work and then be received, without their game in question having to necessarily pass as a full-fledged disc game, which naturally comes with considerably higher expectation, at least from more tech-savvy fans (though that shouldn't be the case when artistry trumps specs/memory constraints…), and thus more risk, both financially but even more so for the idea. However, now that Rumble's been out for a year-and-a-half, with I would say great reception, for (to dispel some cynicism) what it was bear in mind, from nearly everyone except the critics
(surprise? 
) – and introducing the demo helped
immensely with that – so, hopefully Ambrella's taken that into account to really substantiate the content that's in Super Pokémon Scramble, and capitalize on building a series/franchise. If that's their intent I hope they'd take that approach – Ambrella in respect to its Pokémon projects has always been a cornerstone for the innovation of Pokémon games, and by hence developing completely different games for completely different systems between any two given projects (i.e. Dash and PokéPark), I came to believe that this foil approach was sort of their "thing," which for the games they made I definitely appreciated myself. So I think it'll be interesting to see where they take Rumble/Scramble in terms of franchise-building, since it's a little bit of a stark turn in direction (because the original Rumble was their last released project though, perhaps not so much), and regardless, I mentioned in an earlier thread on the upcoming game, but there are
so many ways you can refine the experience the original Rumble brought (one of the few exceptions where I'd personally say reinventing should be out of the picture; rather they've got to invent period), since the original was in many ways of a moderately experimental nature (which I think turned out to be a great thing, often many disagree when it comes to that sort of game-making; naturally it'd depend on the individual case though).
