Oh, man. This game will be neglected on the normal 3DS, right?

 

[Molemitts]

That page also has a screenshot of the world map:

Very atypical looking for Pokemon

Wow lots of branching paths and it looks more vertical less grid shaped. I'm impressed.

 

[Kyzer]

Wow between rotom Pokedex and the map this might actually end up having sidequests

 

[iFirez]

Awesome designs as we've seen already but the typings are odd.

Solgaleo is Psychic/Steel; other pokemon with that typing: Beldum, Metang, Metagross, Jirachi, Bronzor, Bronzong.
Lunala is Psychic/Ghost; other pokemon with that typing: Hoopa. (Not unbound)

Their typings are cool just... not super interesting. I kind of like Lunala's typing but Solgaleo not being fire is a surprise to me.

We can see that there are 4 major islands (2 gyms each?) and then a man made looking resort/structure in the middle of the map. There's also two smaller islands visible in the bottom left and top right.

 

[MrSaturn99]

Also Lillie is the best thing ever

u talkin' to me

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Rotom being rocketed to one of the most important Pokemon in the series warms my heart

 

[Neoxon]

Is Lillie your rival?

Glad to see that the Dexnav (That Pikachu button in the corner) is back!

Those Legendaries suck...

Yep. That typing is a real shame considering the look pretty cool.

 

[Infinite]

That's a legitimately interesting twist on the Pokedex.

Got that shit from Yokai Watch

 

[SkullHydra]

Solgaleo isn't part Fire? Weird...

I love the Rotom Pokédex idea!

 

[HardRojo]

I need a 3DS.

 

[Andrefpvs]

Is it me or are the hero characters back to look like younger children after BW and XY?

 

[Already Torn]

Hah, I knew the bat would be Psychic! Just doesn't make sense based on how the moon is treated in the past, of course it would be Dark type. Ghost is cool too, do we have that typing yet?

Psychic/steel is disappointing but it still looks cool.

 

[Qurupeke]

Main girl's design is so good.

ALSO ROTOM.

 

[entremet]

GF loves their Psychic legends.

 

[Coffinhal]

Seems pretty small considering how small was the first island

Where are the water roads ?

On the positive side : Rotom Pokedex and I hope the rival is the girl (professor's assistants) she is badass, I hope we have finally a good use of the 2nd screen too

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Oh c'mon that is the laziest name for a region ever

 

[Neoxon]

Oh, man. This game will be neglected on the normal 3DS, right?

Game Freak actually wants this game to sell, so I wouldn't count on it.

 

[Dimmle]

There's a ROTOM in my WHAT NOW?

I gotta say, as good as the game looks, Pokemon Company sure throws together some oddly composed trailers.

Also Kukui's assistant looks like she might be an actual, serious rival instead of the saccharine friend with a battling spirit thing they've been doing since Gen 4.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Um

guess Fire and Fairy were too obvious for GF

 

[rhandino]

Rotom Pokedex? Ummmmmmmmm

I c u Pokemon Company~

Oh c'mon that is the laziest name for a region ever

No, that would be Kanto.

 

[Already Torn]

Oh c'mon that is the laziest name for a region ever

It's a typo in the thread title

 

[Kyzer]

Legendary Pokemon signature moves are probably dual type or something. The professor specializes in moves, there's gonna be something new

 

[Neoxon]

Rotom Pokedex? Ummmmmmmmm

I c u Pokemon Company~

To be fair, Pokémon is far ahead of Yokai Watch outside of Japan. It just seems like Yokai Watch has yet to catch on in the rest of the world like it did in Japan.

 

[-Horizon-]

Horizon back off. She's mine :3

>:3

u talkin' to me

Yes ;3

 

[Busaiku]

Ironic that the Sun Pokemon is weak to Fire.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

u talkin' to me

They just had to put the sheer trim at the end. Hnnnnnnnng

 

[Blackquill]

This region looks really beautiful, I want to explore it

 

[SenatorBot]

Rotom and the new Pokedex's art looks good

 

[Diprosalic]

that snow white girl must explode in the sun.

 

[cHinzo]

Pretty fine with Solgaleo not being fire, since I plan on using Litten. Hope there are some secret post-game islands under those clouds. :>

 

[Busaiku]

Oh c'mon that is the laziest name for a region ever

What about Kanto, which is literally the name of the region it is based on.

 

[OniBarubary]

Rotom in the Pokedex gives me a legitimate fear that the hand-holding in this is going to be Skyward Sword levels of intense.

 

[Kyzer]

Rotom Pokedex marking goals and objectives means they can make the game way less linear and could even have sidequests im starting to get hyped this 3d change could be much more than just a visual change

 

[Already Torn]

Oh geez, not looking forward to that Rotom thing at all. My Pokedex is gonna keep calling me "pal" when I'm trying to read about stuff.

"Cubone wears the skull of its dead mom, pal! Aw, poor little guy!!"

 

[Blackquill]

Legendary Pokemon signature moves are probably dual type or something. The professor specializes in moves, there's gonna be something new

Where did you see that ?

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Oh c'mon that is the laziest name for a region ever

It's actually the Alola region. And Kanto's name is less original.

 

[Kyzer]

Where did you see that ?

[Dark Ninja]

The main protagonist options look really close to the X and Y characters just more generic somehow.

 

[Mr. Pointy]

Just so everyone knows, the Pokedex tends to hint at the design of the next Nintendo handheld.

 

[rhandino]

Ironic that the Sun Pokemon is weak to Fire.

I think that Lunala is incredible weak to the Dark type... I did not expect this typings at all.

 

[Kouriozan]

Also Lillie is the best thing ever

Yes, yes she is!

 

[shadow2810]

Lillie mmm...

And I'm still bothered by the main girl's chicken comb hat.

 

[-Horizon-]

Oh, man. This game will be neglected on the normal 3DS, right?

Why?

I don't see any major feature that will be New 3ds only

 

[Qurupeke]

Pokemon in real life, starting with Rotom.

 

[Already Torn]

I think that Lunala is incredible weak to the Dark type... I did not expect this typings at all.

Makes sense, considering the moon is a source of light rather than the opposite. I've been saying this all along.

 

[Akiller]

Also Lillie is the best thing ever

Bet fanarts Will drop in a hour.

 

[Infinite]

Rotom in the Pokedex gives me a legitimate fear that the hand-holding in this is going to be Skyward Sword levels of intense.

It's a Pokemon game like there's already handholding one way or the other

 

[Yabberwocky]

I really love the main player character designs, plus the customisation options are great.

that snow white girl must explode in the sun.

SPF 50+, all day, everyday! (It's nice that Game Freak are continuing to teach kids the importance of wearing hats, even when you're getting randomly mauled by adorable furry animals in tall grass.)
