[SPOILERS] X and Y pre-release Leaks and Rumours thread

Apparently there is a Safari Zone in this game, but it works differently. The pokemon in the safari zone are dependent on the friends you have registered, though there is no way of knowing how it really works.

Really? Ugh i wish they'd go away from that whole social aspect giving bonuses in pokémon.
Not everyone lives in an area where they can actually find people in real life to play or do stuff in pokémon with. As long as it's online friends only then it's okay and i can still get the stuff done but everytime they do one of the whole "Play with people near you" things ingame it makes me a bit sad because it's a part of the game i can never utilize.
