New Pokemon X and Y info cometh next weekend!

Oh yeah, forgot that these air pretty early in the morning in Japan. My mind thought "four in the morning" because of how the X and Y announcement was.
 
It's not too ridiculous, I could see it happening. Going by the genetic themes hinted by XY, going back to one of the most popular genetically engineered Pokemon from a story standpoint isn't that Farfetch'd

.

is it though? i get that coming across a duck with leek is far fetched (just needs hoisin sauce and pancakes) but doesnt make it genetically engineered does it?
 
Sound would be great, but then it begs the question if they're gonna do it now, why only now. Too many Pokemon were obviously internally designed for that type, yet they didn't go with it every single time.

Also yeah if it is coming retroactively, it will probably only apply to monotypes. GameFreak likes in-game consistency and "we discovered this new type!!" works much better than "we discovered this new type!! also 12 billion pokemon which we thought were a different type are actually NOT, they are this type!!!"
 
Oh man.Always loved Pokemon, was never one of those must have everything perfect tourney people but i still enjoyed the game.Stopped playing after emerald because i lost interest in it for absolutely no reason, it's weird.Will be hoping back in for this gen for sure.

I'm seeing this a lot. So many are wanting this game because it appears to be what they wanted since they were kids, a 3D RPG :)
 
this literally happens in every new pokemon game thread (dp/hgss/bw)

Not to this extent. You forget I have been covering games since GS, and with XY, it is the most I've seen of people saying they're returning to Pokémon. With it being worldwide launch, everyone is going into it at the same level too, knowing the same stuff without the entire game having been covered which also seems to excite a lot of people

I hope we can actually move in a 3D plane and not the four-directional movement that's been the mainstay of the series. And I'd like to see the overworld models touched up before launch. But I am damned excited for this, even with all of the 3DS greatness that is coming this year.

Nothing wrong with grid based movement

Yeah, that does sound nice, the Circle Pad is pretty awful for grid movement in Pokemon Black and White. The system does have a DPad, but still would be nice to utilize the system's hardware a bit more since it's there and it'd be more comfortable with the symmetry.
 
Not confirmed yet, but if it was fake, it's probable someone would have come out and admitted it by now.

There's been a few people claiming to have been the person to fake it, but without any of them producing production shots, it's impossible to tell if they're just trolling or not.

I wouldn't think it's that probably that a faker would have revealed it by now though. If this is a hoax, it's one of the most successful hoaxes in the fandom for a very long time. They'd have the ability to milk this until at least the end of Smash, and potentially right up until the release of the usual magazines. Why wouldn't they milk it for as long as they possibly could?

So wait, when is this new info coming out?
During the broadcast of the Pokémon Smash show in Japan tomorrow morning Japanese time. It'll likely show up on the international Pokémon sites soon after.

Yes, and many did that for the Unova Starter evolutions that everyone, including yourself, was insisting were fake. People troll in many ways so it's always best to ignore people without proof

Not saying this is legit because I honestly don't know yet, I just am seeing history repeat.

Besides, this page (http://www.pokemon.co.jp/ex/movie2013/) has got a "Coming Soon" tab which makes me raise an eyebrow.
 
Nooooooo. Is it supposed to be shown in the new movie or something?

Yeah. The image is allegedly the Present Guide for the upcoming movie: Extremespeed Genesect: Mewtwo Awakens. As such, it's focusing on the movie and the image is an adaptation of the poster for the movie. The Present Guide will be distributed on April 20th when people prebook their movie tickets

Holy shit...

Im pretty hyped for the movie but damn if mewtwo changes..especially to that. Well if he has a big part in pokemon X & Y I would be fine though cause mewtwo does need some kind of comeback and that movie seems perfect from what Ive seen.

I'm thinking it makes perfect sense. This new Mewtwo form, if legit, looks very aerodynamic. Mewtwo has to face against the ultra fast Red Genesect, so speed is necessary. Plus it shares some characteristics with this, also who is aerodynamically streamlined

It does make sense the way you put it. Im surprised mewtwo will be having trouble against it. In the movies other than mew mewtwo seems like he possibly the most powerful pokemon. Hopefully the name is still mewtwo.

Plus don't forget, X & Y appear to hae a focus on genetics and DNA based on the logo
 
Better Fan-art to show some other ideas people have on how it may end up looking when we can see the full body.

That artstyle is pretty good, artist mimics Ken Sugimori pretty well.

As for what was drawn, I admire the artist's talent here, but that still looks ridiculous compared to the original.
 
Huh, I just realized.

Pokedex got a sale. I wonder if Gen 6 coming is highly suspect - would they release a new version that has Gen 6 or would it be DLC?
 
I want the final evolutions of the starters so I can then go dark until it comes out, knowing which starter I'm picking and nothing else.

Saw every Pokemon in B/W before they came out, ruined it a tad.
