I'm loling. It looks interesting, but am I going to have to shell out more money for a 3DS to play it? :/
I'm loving it right now
WORLDWIDE I MEAN COME ON!!
Hopefully it comes out before the 17th :P
What we know about the new gen:
-There are at least 5 new Pokemon
-It's 3D
-Reli will need to buy a 3DS
-It's coming out in October (before my birthday)
-Nintendo ran out of good name ideas
-The starters look kinda cool, IB will probably like them better than Emboar
Also, prediction: If they make the next game "Pokemon Z", there will be no 7th gen.
To your last prediction, they'll probably just go more sophisticated again. I figure the regression from Diamond and Pearl to Black and White and to now X and Y is one into simplicity. Next will be something super complicated. Or just random shit. POKEMON PURPLE AND ORANGE.
It's about time for Pokemon Purple. Also, shadow Pokemon.
looks cool, i just hope they don't put in some crappy pokemon. they kinda had a few in 5th gen, such as the one that's a trashbag i believe. though the new legends look pretty amazing. a question though: is this region near Kanto/Johto? from the vid it looked like they were bringing back a lot of 1st gen pokemon but is that true or is that just advertising the battle rooms in the PokeCenters?
Starters look okay. But I liked Tepig so I'm still suspicious >_>
The 3D honestly looks pretty terrible from a computer screen, but part of that is my bias towards 2D sidescrollers and general sprite-based games, and part of it is the knowledge that it'll probably look way better on the tiny 3DS screen.
The legendaries look nice, they look like Pokemon that can support interesting stories (I'm curious as to whether the antlered one will have a role similar to the antlered deity from Princess Mononoke) and I'm super super glad they're moving away from Dialga/Palkia-styled extremely vague emotionless flagship legendaries. Still a ways to go before they stumble upon something as good as Mewtwo and Lugia but Kyurem and the other B/W one were a step and this is another step.
Pokemon doesn't disappoint when it comes to flashy new things and ways of shaking up the games though, so I'm interested to see how it all plays out.
OH, it will.Quote:

BRING ON THE HATE, HATERZ!
Also:
Teh legends haz namezez
http://www.serebii.net/legendsbig.jpg
Xerneas
http://www.serebii.net/legend2big.jpg
and Yveltal
so, the legends are named after the games. how quaint.
Wonder how that works in Japanese.
Ykjgnbsakzjnv and Xzvlabvhjqa :L
I feel like the grass starter's evos will be grass/fighting, but oshawott and Dewott fooled me before, so I wouldn't be surprised if they all turned out to be pure grass/fire/water. Also really loving the legendaries.
So tell me everyone...
X or Y?
Y for me, Why?
'Cause its Y!
As long as the fire starter doesn't become fire/fighting, idgaf what the others are.
And probably X, assuming that it's the game I get the deer in.
This. That deer looks awesome. Although it looks more like a Y than an X, but I suppose it's hard to make a natural-looking X pokemon.Quote:

On another note; Back to my roots, I'm Silver again! (Just with caps :p)
And awesome avatar!
(YOU WILL BE MINE FENNEKIN...)
If this isnt a spoof, Pokemon fans could either hate it, or down right love it. I feel this could be a gateway to back into the Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald stage of creativity. :)
It's actually not a spoof; it's a fully-fledged game.Quote:

The strange part about this whole thing is that this double triangle is similar to the Double Triangle we have here at Topaz!
Not the first time a canon game has ended up coinciding with Topaz. The Orion Defenders had a very Team Plasma-esque code of ethics before B/W came out. Then it was shifted a little to make it less so, but still.
Once Nintendo adopts the Light and Virus types, then I'll be impressed.
Plasma was evil except for N, though.Quote:

My 3DS broke!!!
What do?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
And after seeing the official art of Xerneas, I'm going to buy X.
@silver: i suggest getting a new one quickly, sadly i has no 3ds but i want one and i still need a good portion of the series as the latest one i've got is Diamond still....
@IB: y'all've got virus type? i thought y'all only had the Light type? (though in mine i kinda added about 6 more and the virus one is one of them but wasn't labeled as virus)
in general: i like both the legendaries this time around, cause when B&W first came out i wanted black and the black legendary but that's not possible without both games
the starters also look cool, and it's great to see the water starter be a frog this time (i never did understand 1st gen having a frog as a grass type really)
alrigth so i watched the vid again and i'm still not sure which starter but i think i want the flying legendary cause it looks really epic
Virus-type is Pokemon Acanthite, which I had a lot of respect for before and now am eager to see what they've come up with now that they've rebooted. Fangking Omega, the founder of Acanthite, used to be a programmer for us and did most of our early maps. He doesn't seem to be on Acanthite any more though.

I think that's a bit much. It's a ribbon-crazy skinny Skitty, that's what it is.
Those giant eyes, all those ribbons and bows... It seems like too much for an Eeveelution.
If I had to place my bets on anything canon, I would say it's flying type (although normal might also be it).
I think, however, if they introduce the light type or some other type, there's a good chance it'll belong to that type.
So its English name is Sylveon.
Obviously a tribute to Myself. *Insert smugness here*
I know right! Sometimes I wonder if Gamefreak allows all the fan games running around to keep going so they can grab ideas haha. I swear they have ripped off some stuff from Topaz. It's been too many things to be coincidental.Quote:

Yes but since Chespin would be Grass/Dark Fennekin could still damage it with Fire attacks.Quote:

Don't remember the specifics but i think the Dragon, Ghost, Steel types are the most resistant types for the pokemon. Though nintendo/gamefreak will never use dragon starters, so i think we're fine there.
Yeah you're right. Dragon is only weak to Dragon.
Ghost is weak to Ghost and Dark. Plus 2 immunities.
Steel does have 3 weaknesses - Fighting, Fire, and Ground but it resists a TON and has an immunity.
Dragon is also weak to Ice.Quote:
