You guys are forgetting the one pokemon that needs an evolution.

 Spoiler

I am starting to think that we will get something incredibly underwhelming.

Dream World Expansion.

Eliseo Wrote:I understand that Bioware did it to please the fans. My point is that they didn't released an entire new game for a fanbase they haven't really kept in mind, as GameFreak has showed by removing fan favorites like the battle frontier or the safari. Also, you got to notice that Bioware did it to a HUGE fan uproar, and in Pokemon case the fanbase is still in a "Everything went better than expected" stage. Something like a Rainbow version seems a little farfetche'd for them to create. Possible, but unlikely.

The part about gamefreak removing the frontier and the safari, I don't quite get. The frontier was replaced by the tower ultimately, correct? I always assumed they (GF) were of the mindset to have some things be region specific canonically, so the lack of the frontier in other games made sense for me. Same goes for the safari.
The thing with the fanbase is who the fanbase actually is. Pokemon is and always will be targeted to children, who are easily swayed away from any serious action by giving them something new to distract themselves with. ME's fanbase is by and large an older audience, and if there's anything older people are good at it's holding grudges. (older people in this example is anyone of working/collegiate age, or roughly thereabouts)

But that's all off topic. It's better to just wait and see what happens. I will say I wish people'd give up on the whole "I want a [pre]evolution for X," and X is something that doesnt "need" it.. but that's a personal bias. (glares at lickilicky and tangrowth)

[MENTION=75]Spadow[/MENTION] I am wondering as to where exactly you got that news byte from. I mean yeah, Google shows quite a few results but I'd like to know specifically where.

...But he linked to his source in his post? He got it from Gonintendo, who undoubtably got it from an anon tip, and listed it as a rumour.

Rainbow is totally not happening...right?

Whatever it is, the Nintendo Direct Europe pages are tagged as "3DS" in the page source code, so we can be pretty sure that it's a 3DS game anyway.

Edit: Nintendo UK direct starting anymoment now. Hype train is off the rails. I'm ready to be disappointed!

So there is now way the fox evolves into a fire fighting starter. Right? RIGHT!?

I liked all of the pokemon, the water one was kinda silly,though.


Pokémon X and Pokémon Y - Malthe - 2013-01-08

ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN.

Pokémon X and Pokémon Y - Link - 2013-01-08

Dang. I slept through the conference. Hehe. Sorry... I probably could've done some translating during. Sad


Well, that fire starter is my favorite of the 3. MAYBE I'll pick up this generation. I never got into any of them after the 2nd generation.

Edit : Oh. It's in English already. xd


Pokémon X and Pokémon Y - Razmos - 2013-01-08

Couple of screenshots~
 Spoiler

The hype was definitely justified. wow.
Can't wait until october. It's gonna be fun finding out new details about these games.
I'm definitely getting Pokemon X. the "Y" Pokemon looks pretty dumb.


Pokémon X and Pokémon Y - Jedward - 2013-01-08

Holy crap they're releasing the games to everyone at the same time? I am freaking PUMPED. Ugh why did they do this at the start of the year, they won't be out until Octoberrrrr ;_;

Because building hype = Increase in sale.
Nintendo are brilliant, but the real question is.
Is your body regi?


Pokémon X and Pokémon Y - Lozmaster - 2013-01-08

Also, I'm guessing the game is based on Europe/France.

The buildings definetely had a European theme to them, plus something that could easily be the Eiffel tower.

Also, Pikachu at the start was at the top of the Eiffel tower.
 Spoiler

So. What moves do you all think we saw out of the starters?

This is what I'm thinking they showed

Chespin (Grass)
Solarbeam (Expected)
X Scissor?

Fennikin:
Flamethrower (Maybe Fire Blast? Didn't make the Cross shape though)
Confusion (maybe? I'm not sure what the purplely swirls around the Kirlia were). A fire/Psychic starter would be amazing.

Froakie
Water Gun
Quick Attack?

So yeah, only really impressive thing there is a possible Fire/Psychic type. If the others are new (for starters) dual types, that'd be great too. Grass/Dark, Water/Ground (Like the Sesmitoad line in B/W were?)


Pokémon X and Pokémon Y - yoosergio - 2013-01-08

Fire/Psychic
Grass/Dark
Water/Fighting


Please, let it be this.


Pokémon X and Pokémon Y - Razmos - 2013-01-08

Looks to me like Chespin used Night Slash. It was a slashing attack that looked dark anyway.
Fennekin looks like a potential psychic type. Will be interesting to see it's final evolution, some kind of floating mystical fire fox would be awesome. Not sure why this pokemon is getting so much love, it's design looks very basic to me..
Froakie looks like a Water/Ice, Water/Flying or Water/Ghost, judging by the cloudy bits around it's neck. Probably my favourite starter this generation, it's cute, and I've always liked the Frog pokemon.
