Yeah it's like what they keep doing for X-men. Same basic story with some twists.

I wish they'd come out with like a pokedex for all the different species. In one of the episode of TNG it was said that over 150 world enjoy member ship in the federation. I've always wondered how many were different races and how many if any were just human(or any of the founding members) colony's. Because if they're all different cultures we've only meet like 1/3rd of them.
