Pokemon X/Y Discussion Thread

MisterKorman · 01-08-2013, 12:15 PM

Mere seconds ago, there was an announcement! Pokemon fans, get ready to experience Pokemon X and Y!

It looks like a little of a departure from classic Pokemon, while keeping the stuff we all love!

Also, it will be released everywhere at the same time!

OK, who's more hyped than me?

Pok?mon Direct Presentation - 08.01.2012 - YouTube

Floorless · 01-08-2013, 12:30 PM

They've ruined the series by going full polygon.
It looks like ****.

Peps · 01-08-2013, 12:32 PM

I don't know if I'm more hyped than you, but I'm definitely hyped a lot.

the male trainer pretty much looks like the male trainer from white/ black

**Rentaline** · 01-08-2013, 12:33 PM

The main draw for me here is the worldwide release. Like, finally, y'know?

omarsonic9 · 01-08-2013, 12:34 PM

First Look: Pokemon X and Pokemon Y for Nintendo 3DS Gameplay Footage - YouTube <---
Check out the trailer alone.

Note to everybody: Don't be like "OMG THEY RUINED POKEMON"
-_-, this isn't final game footage.
Of course the final version will be better.

BMO · 01-08-2013, 12:35 PM

Spoiler!

Tekka · 01-08-2013, 12:38 PM

Totally psyched now, and pleasantly surprised. This will keep me in a good mood for a long while.

Looking forward to training with you all in the future!

Yokid · 01-08-2013, 12:40 PM

This game looks really, really good from just the trailer footage, which I'm sure is just a beta form. BUT GEE THIS GAME LOOKS LIKE FUN

Though this is inexcusable:

sonic the frog · 01-08-2013, 12:55 PM

Pokemon from X looks like a musketeer so maybe it will be related?

DextriuX · 01-08-2013, 12:57 PM

The trainer sprites made me cringe. I had a similar feeling with the Black and White trainer sprites, but this is far worse. It feels like an awkward mix between adorable representation of a trainer and a realistic interpretation of a trainer.

DarkK · 01-08-2013, 12:57 PM

The environments look horrible, very DS-ish compared to the character models, which don't look that great either.

Overall while the series has finally made it's jump into the 3DS, it could look much better than it does right now. Looks very 2010 DS-ish.

Omnimon · 01-08-2013, 12:59 PM

Im sure theyll improve it in the next 6 months and it will look better on the 3DS normal version. You 3ds XL guys jelly ?

sonic the frog · 01-08-2013, 01:00 PM

I wonder how you could get your pokemon from b/w2 to X and Y

Rascal0302 · 01-08-2013, 01:01 PM

I am very happy they decided to finally make a 3D Pok?mon game, and considering the Pok?mon on the DS easily took over half of my playtime with the overall system, I am genuinely excited.

However, I'm not really...taken...by the new art-style. I know it's not nostalgia talking, because I've been wanting a 3D Pok?mon for awhile(and I thought Colosseum/XD had great graphics) but beggars can't be choosers I suppose. It also still has a ton of time left until it coms out, so maybe it'll change. Not to concerned with the actual graphics right now because of that, but the art-style does have me concerned.

...? What? What makes you think it'll look better on the original 3DS than the XL?

All 3DS games look better on the regular 3DS than the XL, that's just common sense.

This is coming from someone who sold a 3DS for an XL.

I played Generations and Ocarina of Time on the XL, and they look better in the big screen IMO.

If disagreeing was a physical object, I'd ask you to hold mine. All of mine. I too upgraded to an XL and think the games look better on the bigger screen. Specifically Kingdom Hearts 3D and Revelations. Playing Black 2 still looks nice without reducing the size while looking fuzzy on the original.

Omnimon · 01-08-2013, 01:05 PM

Yokid · 01-08-2013, 01:06 PM

That bird legendary looks AWESOME.
Likewise, that deer legendary probably has the worst design of any legendary I've ever seen. Whoops!

Rascal0302 · 01-08-2013, 01:07 PM

Well, it may LOOK better to you, but 3DS games are not up-scaled to the XL's larger screen, therefor they tend to look more jaggy and such. It's not my opinion, that's just a fact. I don't see MUCH of a difference myself, but I know it's there. NSMB2 comparisons were especially enough to make this known.

sonic the frog · 01-08-2013, 01:08 PM

So which pokemon is gonna be 666?

Giratina and Darkrai's offspring.

In all reality though, I am interested in this. We got the "God" Pok?mon with Gen 4, we need a Satan equivalent now.

Yeah yeah. Whatever you say.

leebrown1990 · 01-08-2013, 01:14 PM

Haha, they ruined Pokemon?

This looks the absolute shiznit! BOOSCH!!! Can't wait.

The Pokemon always tend to grow on me. I'm dissapointed at first but looking back every region has a lot of cool looking Pokemon. Maybes stats-wise etc they aren't the best, but for the play through of the main game they are good enough. Only Ruby/ Saphire annoyed me having a few too cutsey, duplicates and pointless pre/evolvutions.

Froakie and Fennikin both look cool.

Dude, the same amount of pixels on a small screen and on a large screen. The same game on the large screen will look worse, it's just simple logic. In no way does Revelations look better on the XL. It just looks bigger, but on the original 3DS it looks definitely sharper. Like all 3DS games, because this is just logic.

Drybones08 · 01-08-2013, 01:20 PM

OKAY, you know what they SHOULD DO? They should remake Pokemon Leafgreen/Firered/Ruby/Sapphire with these graphics. I'd love to completely replay childhood in 3D enhanced graphics! I think the last thing we need right now is a new generation. Gen5 wasn't even a year ago. I don't wanna memorize any more pokemon.... besides, this will be a tough starter decision for me because I despise fire types, but the fennec fox is one of my favorite animals, and it definitely looks the coolest! Gah!

All in all, I'm pretty sad there's a new generation. I don't hate it, and those legends do look pretty legendary. I'd take them over Reshiram and Zekrom any day. Maybe they will have cool pokemon. I think gen 4 was the worst one for some reason, however. Maybe because nobody from that gen stands out so much? But I do love me a good Luxray/Torterra.

I just hope they don't ruin it. I consider this a complete make or a complete break for me and pokemon.

PS----- What happened to all the cool gem names? They had Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Gold, Silver, Diamond, Pearl, Platinum... come on, why not opal and graphite? I like opal, it is shiny.

sonic the frog · 01-08-2013, 01:24 PM

Knowing game freak they would have a virtual console release of RS then a remake

Well then, Mr. Frog, I cannot wait for this day.

Omnimon · 01-08-2013, 01:26 PM

looks like X/Y movements only again. No circlepad free diagonal movements

MikeGreece13 · 01-08-2013, 01:27 PM

I haven't played Diamond/Pearl and Black/White but I think I'll get this one just for the fun of playing Pokemon in 3d environments

Animal Crossing: New Leaf will most likely be the game I'll be playing in summer, but I think I might pick up a Pokemon game since the 3DS version will be released in October :/

Drybones08 · 01-08-2013, 01:31 PM

With Pokemon B/W, and B/W2, the games just didn't keep my attention like they used to. I used to play pokemon for 12 hours on a weekend, but when gen 5 came along, I got tired of it easily, and didn't really care as much. I didn't really get sucked into it like all the other games (mosty Sapphire and Leafgreen). Then again, I used to have Pokemon pillows, blankets, curtains, plushies, floormats, stickers, chairs, posters and more. Since I've moved, all my pokemon stuff has been shoved in a box marked 'memories' by me. I really do still love pokemon with all my heart, I think... it's just that I don't want my room covered in the stuff when I'm almost done with high school.

... so with the past year or so... have the games changed? Or have I?

The games haven't changed much on an overall level, but I agree, I have been losing interest in the series since D/P. I barely played any of the post game content of the B/W 1/2 games.

But you got older. We all do. I used to have Pok?mon cards, toys, stuffed animals, everything. It's just something you move on with.

So, how do we know that movement is still grid-based?

Kurosai · 01-08-2013, 01:41 PM

The fire type starter reminds me of Vulpix and Flareon.

Nonuo · 01-08-2013, 01:42 PM

One frog to rule them all.

Edum Bot · 01-08-2013, 01:44 PM

Pfffft. Firefox is soooo last year. :P Nothing beat the bespectacled frog.

Anyway, here's the grass one. Perhaps they could all be collected in the OP.

Edit:

And the X and Y Legendaries

MisterKorman · 01-08-2013, 02:26 PM

I'm getting Pokemon Y probably. First, I'll need to know the Version-exclusives, but the Mascot for Pokemon X looks like a weird combination of Virizion and Stantler.

01-08-2013, 02:31 PM

Just saw some footage. I may not be playing these games, but they're just what I want. I think the Pokemon could look a little smoother though.

Radiant · 01-08-2013, 02:33 PM

Looks like the region for this game may be based in Europe. They gave several hints to that being the case.

Rascal0302 · 01-08-2013, 02:34 PM

Fenneken is really cute and Vulpix is a boss, so I'll be choosing him. Hopefully his third evolution makes Ninetails cower in fear and despair.

Also, it won't happen but I HOPE Nintendo gives a pre-order bonus of R/B(either straight VC titles or 3D classics) for X/Y.

Drybones08 · 01-08-2013, 02:36 PM

The new Pokemon we've seen so far are, naturally, the starters. Which one will you guys choose? What should their evolutions look like?

Also, we have seen 2 new legendary Pokemon... how do you like them?

PS- I've noticed the second, deerlike legend has antlers in the Y shape. Coincidence? :O

Since the Pikachu introduction to the trailer had him in Paris, I guess it's official.

Lebon14 · 01-08-2013, 02:48 PM

The third game after this, I'm calling it, will be called Pokemon Z. /CaptainObvious

Anyway, it was kind of obvious that this announcement would bring. Personally, I'm stocked for an advanture on the 3DS. I was really angry that BW2 was a DS game when the 3DS was out for quite a good amount of time.

Is it me or... the starters look incredibly... unoriginal? I'm not usally someone to pick on this stuff in pokemon but now, it reached kind of a new level. I hope that the evolutions will "correct" this problem.

Now, I'm waiting for a shot of the female protagonist so we can have some Rule 34.

Lady Palutena · 01-08-2013, 02:49 PM

I am so hyped up for this game.
I cannot wait.

tailsxd7 · 01-08-2013, 02:51 PM

I second this. XD

MikeGreece13 · 01-08-2013, 02:58 PM

Fire starter for sure. I have a liking for fire starters like Charmander and Torchic

I haven't played any of the V Generation games though so I may pick up either Black/White or Black/White 2 to play in summer.

MisterKorman · 01-08-2013, 03:02 PM

Now they're all growing on me. I feel so conflicted with the starters...

Lebon14 · 01-08-2013, 03:06 PM

There's already fanart... Here's a personalization of Fennekin.

This is going to be huge. I hope they've focused on the online play more this time. Also the starters look amazing to me, better than B/W at least.

Is there any confirmation on an entirely new generation of Pokemon that's going to be in the game? Or will there just be new starters/legends?

Also, I'm really conflicted over which starter I like best! I like all of their designs to be honest. But I'll probably go with Froakie because Water-types are my faves.

SapphireKirby · 01-08-2013, 03:49 PM

The graphics need a polishing, but GF has 8 months to do that. So far I like the bird legendary better

jayem · 01-08-2013, 03:51 PM

The starters? Not sure if gusta (They really look fanmade, I know people said Gen 5 had fanmade looking starters, I never thought so, but these do to me)... I might start with Fennekin :3
I'm also gonna miss the uses of sprites... but am gonna love the 3D world :O
I'm also gonna miss the way battles used to look... but am looking foreword in the new direction!
All in all, as much as I love how Gen 5 tried to keep everything new while being the same (purposely or not), I'm gonna LOVE Gen 6!

And here we are, back to waiting for tickets for the next hype train leaving for E3 2013, as this Hype Train has set it's purpose, and dropped us back to reality feeling extremely hyped for what Game Freak has instore with Pok?mon X Version, and Pok?mon Y Version.

itschrissy · 01-08-2013, 03:53 PM

In the video at 0:39 what seems to be the main girl character from B/W2 is following the boy. I wonder if we can use characters from earlier games as our own? It'd be cool not to be stuck with one option.

Leaning towards Fennekin right now, but it may change depending on the final forms

Sword · 01-08-2013, 05:20 PM

I must say its the first time after Gen 2 that I consider all 3 starters to look great.

RedYoshi · 01-08-2013, 05:29 PM

i think they all look great, but i think im going Froaky

SDDMN · 01-08-2013, 06:09 PM

Gen VI could be the first Pokemon Generation where I'll have a Fire starter instead of a Water starter.

Bring on October 2013!

Zero · 01-08-2013, 06:35 PM

They nailed it, Never expected Cel shading.

Love everything, Incrrdible, it's awesome to think as a pokefan that gamefreak has outdone themselves imo and announced what appears to be an amazing generation in my birthday

Kevinsky · 01-08-2013, 06:42 PM

Chespin aka Chespinsky masterrace reporting in

Zeuzio · 01-08-2013, 06:45 PM

Chespin or Fennikin...Chespin...or Fennikin...

Well, I guess I have until October to decide. I must say that I'm surprised this announcement came so quickly. It doesn't feel like it's been that long since Black 2/White 2 came out. I love the 3D style already! Too bad that it looks like it'll still be 4 directional movement. >_>

Yuoke · 01-08-2013, 06:50 PM

Looking at Froakie now, I'm thinking and really hoping that it is water/poison...because for one thing that is still to this day a unique type with omly tentacool/tentacruel having it and it could leanr great moves.

Jarinex · 01-08-2013, 07:09 PM

Well, well, well, what a pleasant surprise.

Guess I will keep my eyes on this one.

Artwork · 01-08-2013, 07:10 PM

Weird is the right word.
A game which graphically didn't change a lot, now moving to this perspective and 3d will seem weird at first. But seeing as this is Pokemon/Nintendo I am sure it will deliver. a
HARD

I'm just happy to have a 3DS game to look forward to for 2013. I was a bit worried there that I would have to settle for animal crossing/NSMB2/whatever else I find on eshop.

Personally, I imagine Froakie to evolve into a Water/Flying type frog that sits on top of a giant cloud (due to his collar which is either a cloud, bubble, or foam).

Abcdude · 01-08-2013, 08:18 PM

It looks like the Tales of series and Ni no kuni had a child and named it pokemon.

If that is the case it would pretty much ensure that I never pick Froakie, ever. It's already my least favorite due that weird cloud thing and its...its nose? Chespin is a little derpy looking but it'll probably be fine after it evolves, and I have a grass bias anyway. Fennekin, though, is just <3.

Saturn · 01-08-2013, 08:36 PM

im psyched! but i agree, X looks like a swordsman of justice... Y looks bad*** though. ill definitely be getting Y.

also, were hitting over 700 pokemon...

Nintendoman355 · 01-08-2013, 09:07 PM

Oh man I'm really stoked for a new pokemon game that will be more enjoyable then that mediocre rumble blast game on the 3DS.

Well, I guess I have until October to decide. I must say that I'm surprised this announcement came so quickly. It doesn't feel like it's been that long since Black 2/White 2 came out. I love the 3D style already! Too bad that it looks like it'll still be 4 directional movement. >_>

Really? There wasn't really much walking in the trailer, nevermind open space walking. I don't think it would go 3D with 4 directions, especially because Pokemon feels weird to play with the Circle Pad currently. Edit: Wait, I see where you're coming from. The forest scene right? Even without the limit of 4 directions, you could still move like that.

I woke up early to catch the ND before I went to school, although not at the time it went up. I am not disappointed. It is about times sprites got lost. Battles look cool so far. Froakie =

Fennekin =

and Chespin = :l First time since Gen. 1 I will choose the water starter on my first playthrough. Unless, of course, the evolved forms sway me in another direction.

The legendaries look pretty cool. The one looks like another Musketeer, but with crazy rainbow horns. I can't wait for new info.

Strider · 01-08-2013, 09:15 PM

I.have.just.one.word.:
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
yeah, pretty much my reaction XD *still cannot believe it*
I'm expecting a lot from them after B2/W2 so let's see ^^

redturtle806 · 01-08-2013, 09:45 PM

It looks pretty cool, but I'm gonna have to swap out my starter for a Pikachu. Can't play the game any other way.

banjo3dsie · 01-08-2013, 09:50 PM

Whoa. 3D Pokemon. Didn't think we'd see the day. Well that certainly makes this game worth it for pokemon fans. Let's hope the new pokemon/changes to the metagame do the same as well.By that I mean please give me an easier way to get into it. Training gets old real fast.

CrimsonValiier · 01-08-2013, 09:51 PM

I wonder if there will be more info on pokemon x y and ssb4 in e3...
if there is my head would probobly explode.

News on Pokemon X and Y will definitely come. Maybe not at E3 (although I think it is pretty likely it will at least be shown at E3), but in scans of CoroCoro, and through Nintendo and other sites.

Alta?r Ibn La' Ahad · 01-08-2013, 10:03 PM

It is about fracking time we get to see Pokemon in glorious 3D. I've been waiting for this day for a very long time.

banjo3dsie · 01-08-2013, 10:08 PM

So when's October? The end of the year? umm... is 2013 over yet??

awesome · 01-08-2013, 10:11 PM

I would try to wait for Pokemon Z/ Pokemon X 2 and Y 2, but I don't have the willpower.

Flyboy16 · 01-08-2013, 10:15 PM

3ds only goes up from here

hole_jago · 01-08-2013, 10:16 PM

Surprised? SURPRISED? I'm surprised this game came as soon as it did. I thought we would have to wait another year. Then again, 9 Months is technically a year.

Ch33bDragonite · 01-08-2013, 10:43 PM

For the people that are concerned with the graphics, it did say that the game footage isn't final, so I guess we can expect an improved version once we see another trailer for it near its release.

I'm pretty hyped for this game even though I don't have Black & White and its sequel. I might as well skip those and anticipate for this one.

Smeaxy · 01-08-2013, 10:46 PM

It's gonna be hilarious when the starters evovled forms are announced and everyone will go with Chespin. I'll probably be rolling Froakie though

Also guys is this a total new gen or just new starters and legendaries?

Honestly do you know what you are talking about?

And POKEMON GRAPHITE and POKEMON OPAL sound like pretty stupid names to me XD

MikeGreece13 · 01-08-2013, 10:56 PM

It's a new generation. What we were shown in the Nintendo Direct is more of a teaser trailer than anything... Plus the game isn't even finished yet. They'll probably start releasing more and more info as time passes by to build up hype.

Wenis · 01-08-2013, 10:57 PM

I can't wait to see what creative and original Pokemon they come up with this time.

It's clearly in a new region. If there's new starters and a new region, I'm pretty sure that's all a Pokemon game needs to qualify as a new gen.

Huntsman06 · 01-08-2013, 11:07 PM

Well, eh...how to put this. I think the actual battles themselves look pretty nice. In fact the 3d Pokemon themselves (and the attacks) look very very nice. The idea of the camera literal changing from one XYZ position to another to really show how everything played out is a fine idea. But the trainer in 3D in a 3D rendered world seems wrong to me (what's next, voice acting?). I'll stick with the originals on that. But we will see what happens.

1 Complaint: TOO MANY POKEMON! Each generation adds at least 150(ish). That's just too many in my eyes.

And for the fact that this is a worldwide release, I don't think this is the main release in the franchise. I bet it will separate into "Pokemon" and "Pokemon 3DS".

EDIT:

A question, Nintendo shows the footage within the bezel's of a 3DS XL. Does that mean the footage was the XL footage or just normal? Just wondering if those jagged lines I noticed are mainly the XL's fault.

hmm I don't know man. They hyped this a bunch and if it was not considered a main release would be stupid.

I love the universal release date, I won't be staring at my screen be jelly of all the japanese people with the games.

Iwata clearly said these two are games in the main series of Pokemon, Pokemon is moving on again. It never separated into 'Pokemon' and 'Pokemon Colour' or 'Pokemon' and 'Pokemon DS'

Also, I think those jagged lines are just a curse of the 3DS, for some reason no trailer or footage seems to do the 3DS justice.

MrTripStack · 01-08-2013, 11:58 PM

There's not a single doubt in my mind that you will have to wait 'til after the Elite 4 to transfer your Pok?mon from older games.

Floorless · 01-08-2013, 11:59 PM

transfering should always be locked till you beat elite4.
I think its a cop out if you xfer sooner.

OR, there should be a limit where you can't transfer anything unless its say, badge count x 5, so with 8 badges you could xfer up to level 40 pokemon. or to whatever the highest pokemon level you have so far is. But once you beat elite 4 can xfer with no limits.

Seems like more than a year to me. In fact, the release times between Gens 3 to 4, 4 to 5, and 5 to 6 have all been less than four years (going by the full 365 days per year)

Not to mention that none of your Pokemon would listen to you in the first place. This would probably make it less likely for you to use the new Pokemon, too.

J. Severe · 01-09-2013, 12:26 AM

Yay for worldwide release! I wish all game devs would do that. Should be interesting to see how this does in America when it launches, could be the game that really propels the 3DS to Japan-level sales here.

To be honest, at first, I was kinda unsure how the mainline series would look like in 3D and was hoping they'd stick with sprites, but I actually like how it is, and the cel-shading probably plays a big part in that. It keeps the art style a nice mixture between its old sprite-y self and new polygonal 3D. I'm also surprised at how good it looks granted that it still has quite a bit development to go through (though some parts do look really jaggy), but I'm sure it'll end up fantastic visually by the end of the next 10 months.

Also, I'm sorry, but I just can't get with that Froakie design, it simply doesn't look good. Chespin is fine, and Fennekin is boss, so I'll probably go with the latter on my playthrough. I also like the blue legendary Pokemon who'll likely be in X, so I'll buy that version most likely.

Speaking of which, Pokemon X and Y are quite weird names... maybe I'm just not used to their shortness. Oh well, we all know that they're just lead-ins to Pokemon Z... or Pokemon X2 and Y2.

ResidentSteve · 01-09-2013, 12:28 AM

The graphics look a lot better in the vid than in stills and I'm sure they'll look better again on the small screen
The game will be amazing - it's Pok?mon!

Pokemon Y and Froakie gonna teach him Ice beam(hopefully) so I can get rid of Chespins aswell as Fennenkin

I probably won't even use fennekin, but I'll keep this as my Avi.

The starters' armies are gathering, happy to see all three of them receiving their fair share of fans. It's been a while since this happened last time, if I'm not mistaken.

ITS SHOWTIME!!!

Disliking a Pokemon or its design doesn't mean that they're trying to compare it to a previous generation for nostalgia reasons. It's called a differing opinion.

I dislike Bidoof, does that mean I'm trying to compare it to Gen 1?

Anyway, I decided to join the starter bandwagon here. Froakie! :O

sonic the frog · 01-09-2013, 02:13 AM

They always seem to say that "this isn't the final product", probably for some sort of legal purpose. I highly doubt they're gonna go and completely change the graphics nine months before its planned release.

Scizor · 01-09-2013, 02:30 AM

I'm glad Gamefreak's testing their transition to 3D with this game rather than 3rd gen remakes. Hopefully they'll get rid of the grid-lock and pseudo-3D environments by then.

**Rentaline** · 01-09-2013, 02:33 AM

Of course it's not the final product, but yes it does look very DS-y in comparison to what other games the 3DS has to offer. I guess the staff need some getting used to the transition, assuming it's the same guys who did the work for BW/B2W2 (which looks to be the case).

And by the looks of things, battles were what was given the most attention here because they look pretty darn great.

Rich · 01-09-2013, 02:35 AM

Those screenshots look God awful but I'll just wait a little longer before forming a solid opinion. I was hoping the new Gen for the 3DS would move away from the sprite/grid-based style but this doesn't seem to be the case here.

Black and White 2 did not leave me with a very good taste in my mouth, the original Black and White was already enough. I was hoping for something much different with the 3DS, but I guess we'll really have to see how they make use of the 3DS' capabilities.

sonic the frog · 01-09-2013, 02:38 AM

Pok?mon X & Y are the first Pok?mon games without the word "Version" in their titles in English

All in all, I'm pretty sad there's a new generation. I don't hate it, and those legends do look pretty legendary. I'd take them over Reshiram and Zekrom any day. Maybe they will have cool pokemon. I think gen 4 was the worst one for some reason, however. Maybe because nobody from that gen stands out so much? But I do love me a good Luxray/Torterra.

I just hope they don't ruin it. I consider this a complete make or a complete break for me and pokemon.

PS----- What happened to all the cool gem names? They had Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Gold, Silver, Diamond, Pearl, Platinum... come on, why not opal and graphite? I like opal, it is shiny.

Finally someone who agrees with me that Pearl and Diamond where the worst pokemon games ever made...

I think there are many more people who agree with you. I, for one, do.

Poor Chespin...I'm now sure I'll choose him over Fenniken for my first playthrough just because he seems to be the least popular(at least here). Still want to see all the evos, though. Even Froakie could have an awesome turnaround.

Yeah Team Chespin!! I like them all but Chespin keeps calling me! and its team Pokemon Y for me until I see the Exclusives for each copy.

I don't think D/P where bad but the worst out of the Pokemon series

Zeuzio · 01-09-2013, 03:04 AM

I suppose I'll be team Chespin as well. As for the version, I don't know! I'm letting my sister pick the one she wants and I'm getting the other. Both legendaries look pretty cool, so I don't mind.

@sonic the frog: My Chespin will have your Froakie K.O.'d before you even have time to input commands.

Guys after going back ad watching over the trailer again I think I've figured out a few things about the game:

In the picture below you can see two pictures of the player. In the first one the player is wearing glasses on his hat and in the picture next to it it appears that the player is wearing no glasses. So do you guys think there will be some type of trainer customization.

In another picture you can see that Ethel Tower which can confirm this game takes place partly in Frances capital city Paris.

I think that was a "lag" of glass.

That's a glitch.
No Trainer customization... Sorry

Yeah, like we were discussing in the chatbox, the glasses appear to have glitched off of the character. That could mean that the glasses are not tied to the character model and are a removable asset.

sonic the frog · 01-09-2013, 03:14 AM

And thus the first Glitch is found

Kiryu · 01-09-2013, 03:21 AM

Froakie the Theif!

PixieStix88 · 01-09-2013, 03:23 AM

Things that i want to see:

1.More Polish on the graphics.
2. Pokemon follow you.
3. Customizable character.

Jaydens · 01-09-2013, 03:24 AM

I've found out a few more things watching over and through these trailers once again.
Could DNA have something to do with the game?

I've also began to think we will not be Riding bikes in this game an instead we will be roller skating around. [skip to 0:45 of the video]
