GEN 6 WINNING STREAK CONTINUES.

As usual, my first reaction is, "WTF," followed by robertredford.gif.

The screens show the new Mewtwo kicking a lot. I like him.

The brontosaurus with the ability to make Normal-type moves into Ice-type moves is intriguing.

We finally have a T-Rex Pokémon! And a Rock/Dragon, for that matter!

Froakie becomes more ninja-like. SO COOL!

Chespin becomes more chestnut-like. SO CUTE!

Confused about the stick in Fennekin evo's ass, but it's probably my fave starter evo. Looks like a witch or sorcerer.

Mega Garchomp? BEAST.

The cat with its gender-specific forms is awesome. Both forms look great.

The poodle with the customizable hairstyles is a fun idea.

So much awesome stuff this gen.

 

[zroid]

It doesn't.

 

[Sats]

More important than any Pokemon revealed:

Damn it I forgot. Point is, customization.

Late to the discussion but I find Samurott disappointing coming from Dewott. However, Samurott is the best final form of the Gen V starters, which is testament to how lame the starters were in Gen V. I used my Samurott as an HM slave.

Sceptile is a bigger offender as being more disappointing.

I thought Serperior was the best final evo in terms of the rest of the line.

So what are the chances of the T-Rex being the stage 1 and having an evolution?

Is the sky blue?

Did they redesign Asshead MewTwo?

No. There are two mega evolutions.

My thoughts exactly ;_;

Its going to be Fire/Psychic.

Dewott is ugly and stupid looking. Samurott's design is perfect.

Samurott is a Dialga clone. Dewott deserved better.

With the last 2 generations I would train and breed certain Pokemon with knowledge of their new moves, evolutions or abilities in mind. This will be the first time in a while I'll just be going in knowing nothing. I mean I know as much as the info that has been put out, but comparatively I feel like I've traveled back in time to Red and Blue.

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

I think it would've been cooler if the Brontosaurus' ability would turn enemies moves into Ice-type, like not all of them, but perhaps all Direct moves?

Would be very neat and make up for its weaknesses.

 

[DedValve]

The starter evos look awful, just awful.

chespin is the worse, I won't evolve him. Here's hoping 3rd eco can redeem him. Also sad that fennekin is bidpedal, I would have preferred him to stay on all 4s.

here's hoping the final evos deliver but I won't hold my breathe.

also those 2 gender cats, male one specifically looks incredible, as do the dinosaurs (suck that the brachiosaurus is getting the short end of the stick being a bulky rock/ice)

 

[MrCookiepants]

Samurott is a Dialga clone. Dewott deserved better.

Samurott deserved better pre-evo's. That line was atrocious before he saved it.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Froakie's evolution is pretty badass, gotta admit. Also, I bet Fennekin's final evolution will be witch like since the stick makes its tail look like a broom

Ok, this got me hyped for fennekin's final evo

 

[Dr. Buni]

lol

but seriously, there is nothing Fighting-type-sque in its design.

yeah, it is bipedal, but so are 90% of the Psychic-types

also, its arms are too small and thin...

The customization of hairstyles and outfits is probably the most important thing for me. I've wanted that since the beginning.

 

[Kouriozan]

I'll take my chestnut while you Fennekin fan will have a witch

 

[Boss Doggie]

HAH! Chespin2 reminds me of Kellam!

Meloetta

Dance fighter though

 

[Dr. Buni]

So you think original Mewtwo is ugly? Just checking

Sorry, haven't see this quote before. Not really, I like Mewtwo's original design, but the Mewtwo X looks pretty awful, specially its feet That being said, I prefer Mewtwo Y's design over the other two designs, that is for sure.

 

[Aggrotek]

It'd be nice if the Brontosaurus got Solid Rock as it's second ability.

 

[Avixph]

So are all the Mega Pokèmon going to be different depending on which version of the game you get?

 

[Busaiku]

What did they do to Chespin.

 

[Tan]

What did they do to Chespin.

Improved him.

 

[Elfteiroh]

Mega Garchomp looks like a Garchomp and Waluigi fusion.

... You're right! O_O Never liked Garchomp, bit now... xD

WALUIGI TIME! Invading your pokemans!!!

Also: In this thread: Everyone having different favorite pokemon they try to pass as the absolute best everyone else should love.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

Accept it guys, Fennekin will become Fire/Fighting.

Let it sink in.

 

[Kouriozan]

Accept it guys, Fennekin will become Fire/Fighting.

Let it sink in.

His last evo might not be buuuuut, what about his Mega Evo

 

[Rizsparky]

Accept it guys, Fennekin will become Fire/Fighting.

Let it sink in.

Never!

 

[Dr. Buni]

Meloetta

D: stop

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Yeah, I just realized...

We probably have TWO more evolutions of the Starter Pokemon to look forward to.

 

[Fireblend]

The customization of hairstyles and outfits is probably the most important thing for me. I've wanted that since the beginning.

Yeah, I'm really hyped for this. Hopefully there will be plenty of variety and it's not like there's only 3 outfits/hairstyles available or something like that.

 

[Black-Wind]

What did they do to Chespin.

Fucked him up! >:/

Was hoping the Frog would be the fat one ... it's new evol looks cool as hell but after that damn Otter I have decided no more water starters for me.

Looks like it's gonna be Torchic, Char and the Fox is the finals follow these looks :/

 

[Busaiku]

Man, I don't wanna be team Fennekin, but it has the best 2nd stage by far.
Darn it, poor Chespin...

 

[Stone Ocean]

What did they do to Chespin.

Did you honestly expect his evo to look even remotely cool?

I didn't expect fat evo though.

 

[zroid]

What did they do to Chespin.

Chespignite

 

[Glass Rebel]

you guys are trying way too hard not to like Froakie Three Stacks.

He's clearly the best.

 

[Trey]

Give us player character skin tones, Game Freak. It's time.

 

[ffdgh]

Did you honestly expect his evo to look even remotely cool?

I didn't expect fat evo though.

No one expected....(supposedly)pignite/emboar part 2.

He starts out so slim too

 

[-Horizon-]

It's pointless to resist.

They do give you three options this time around.

 

[ScraftyDevil]

Chespignite

No, Chengar.

I'm actually rather surprised by the amount of hate it's getting, considering how cute it is. Did people complain this much about Marshtomb too?

 

[TrueBlue]

Bulbasaur + Fennekin dream team, baby.

 

[Busaiku]

Y confirmed for best Mewtwo though.
This new Mewtwo is hideous.

 

[Stone Ocean]

No one expect....(supposedly)pignite/emboar part 2.

With that dorky face he was going to be lame either way.

Give us player character skin tones, Game Freak. It's time.

We already have those.

 

[SovanJedi]

Remember children: It's an Apatosaurus Pokemon, or a sauropod. Brontosaurus doesn't exist.

 

[Fireblend]

Bulbasaur + Fennekin dream team, baby.

You misspelled Squirtle there.

 

[DaBoss]

No, Chengar.

I have no problem against Marshstomp. My biggest problem with Chespin2 is that its face is just weird. Chespin looked really cute especially due to the face. If it had some similar to Chespin, it would undoubtably look insanely cute.

 

[zroid]

No, Chengar.

I'm actually rather surprised by the amount of hate it's getting, considering how cute it is. Did people complain this much about Marshtomb too?

buuuuuut the 2nd forms of starters aren't supposed to be cute

ideally (to me): the 1st forms are cute; 2nd forms are "cool"; the final forms are "badass"

 

[Neiteio]

No, Chengar.

I'm actually rather surprised by the amount of hate it's getting, considering how cute it is. Did people complain this much about Marshtomb too?

I like "Chengar," but I can see why people think he goes against the spirit of the character. What made Chespin so cute was his Disney character silhouette and his floppy feet. He's much more compact in Chengar form. Again, I like him, but I can see why people might be down on him.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

You misspelled Squirtle there.

No, no he didn't.

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Remember children: It's an Apatosaurus Pokemon, or a sauropod. Brontosaurus doesn't exist.

I'm hoping this Pokemon is like the Mega Kanto Starters in that it looks better as a 3D Model, because the Sugimori Art is just awkward as fuck.

 

[Boss Doggie]

I swear Chespin is gonna crack open into a mighty chipmunk warrior! You'll see!

 

[Busaiku]

buuuuuut the 2nd forms of starters aren't supposed to be cute

Chespin could've changed this.
It could've been the 1st starter with a good evolution tree.

But no...

Fennekin's not good, it's just less bad than the others.

 

[trixx]

Ok i'm super glad i said Froakie day 1 still sticking with him and using dat Bulbasaur. The other secondary evolutions are dissapointing and no torchic on my team, torchic sucks.

I must say, i think Mewtwo Y > Mewtwo X. But xerneas is a beast much better than Yeveltal. X version day 1
