Any word on Scyther?

 

[Fey]

I would surmise that the Z Legendary does not appear in any regional dex... just the National Dex. I suppose additional event pokemon / legendaries could extend the National Dex as we go.

I'm guessing Mewtwo is 150. The Kanto legendary bird trio likely starts at 142 or 145.

So the rumour about the Kanto birds being the legendary trio for this game were true? >.>

 

[Charlie0108]

Id reel it in guys. 70 to 80 seems about right

Aren't we only on 69 with barely any space left?

 

[Gartooth]

That makes me think, is Mewtwo somewhere in the game or was there an event with the movie and you have to wait for the bank to be available? The Mewtwonite X/Y will probably have to be somewhere as well.

Still hoping that the National Dex has more unknown Pokemon.

It would be completely illogical for Nintendo and GameFreak to market and hype the Mega Mewtwo forms like they have only to have them be either event based or require the bank. My guess is that they saved Mewtwo as a post game legendary.

 

[DragonKnight]

Aren't we only on 69 with barely any space left?

Yep.

 

[Tusk]

Welp, guess I'll have zero surprises in x/y other than the legends.
I regret constantly coming back, but Noibat was worth it. <3

Mewtwo may be after the main game, btw.

 

[StreetsAhead]

There's still Mega Evolutions to see!

 

[Firemind]

Beautiful, the definition of a bulky water type. The 12th can't get here fast enough.

70/100/100 isn't that impressive. Bulky waters aren't what they used to be unfortunately.

It's also a possibility that the Z Legendary is 150. And Mewtwo (and/or possibly Mew) precedes the Xerneas / Yveltal tandem.

Last I saw there was absolutely no proof of the Kanto trio being in the game.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

If megas were more than temp form changes, or if you could have more than one in a party I wouldn't feel like thats too little. But given the way Megas play out and the lack of a large new Pokemon lineup I would be lying if I didn't say I was let down. Maybe the post game will hold some secrets.

 

[Korosenai]

So Aegislash is freaking awesome... and Goodra being dragon only is kind of dissapointing, but at the same time kind of cool because there aren't many dragon only pokemon and he has less weaknesses this way.

Megas wouldn't work if they were permanent and/or you could have more than one in any given battle.

 

[DMG-01]

How far have the leakers gotten in the story? Is anyone at the E4 yet?

 

[UberTag]

Last I saw there was absolutely no proof of the Kanto trio being in the game.

There's no proof of any other Legendary being in this game, either.
Perhaps Xerneas, Yveltal, Mewtwo, the Z Legendary and the Megas are all we get.

 

[Zoramon089]

Anyone heard anything about the Battle Tower/Frontier? I heard there's "facilities" scattered around the region

 

[Caladrius]

How far have the leakers gotten in the story? Is anyone at the E4 yet?

They're at about the E4, which is in the early-mid 60's. That's a record isn't it?

 

[Subtervotion]

Okay, okay, just got in... added Noibat and Noivern and integrated those new changes into Mountain.

Central

Coastal

Mountain

Still waiting on Aggron confirmation. Mountain makes sense for his location. PLEASE GF!

 

[ramyeon]

Didn't say there was but it'd be very out of character for Gamefreak if that were the case. I really don't see them bringing back the legendary birds on top of Mewtwo though.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

Megas wouldn't work if they were permanent and/or you could have more than one in any given battle.

Eh, thats arguable. At least the second part.

Either way, I'm still confused, can I have multiple Pokemon holding mega stones in my party but only activate one per battle? Or do I have to micro manage my stones in between battles?

 

[Sandfox]

They're at about the E4, which is in the early-mid 60's. That's a record isn't it?

That's going to be good for grinding especially if there's a round 2.

 

[Charlie0108]

Was Clawitzer in the E4?

 

[ramyeon]

Eh, thats arguable. At least the second part.

Either way, I'm still confused, can I have multiple Pokemon holding mega stones in my party but only activate one per battle? Or do I have to micro manage my stones in between battles?

I believe you can have all of them holding stones if you want to, but you can only activate one per battle.

 

[Mr-Joker]

They're at about the E4, which is in the early-mid 60's. That's a record isn't it?

Whoa that is a record, let just hope they actually provide a challenge as Unova elite 4 was a joke.

 

[Gartooth]

This has probably been answered, but does activating the mega stone take a turn?

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Was Clawitzer in the E4?

It belonged to the leaker because it was the lowest leveled in the battle.

 

[Firemind]

This has probably been answered, but does activating the mega stone take a turn?

No

 

[Sandfox]

No.

 

[Quest1]

That's a good question. Since it's in-game, i don't need to worry about choice items or life orb, I'd just have everyone holding a mega stone and choose who gets to go for the battle.

 

[ramyeon]

This has probably been answered, but does activating the mega stone take a turn?

No, you can choose your attack after doing it.

 

[astrogamer]

Well looks like my theory is being proven more accurate, the only ones we're missing from my list have gone down to the Deino family, Tympole family, Dratini family and cranidos family which are very likely to fit in the pokedex though I have my doubts about Cranidos unless there are more fossils in the Mountain region

 

[Subtervotion]

I swear if GF put luvdisc, delibird, and dunsparce in but not Aggron line...

 

[Gartooth]

No

No.

No, you can choose your attack after doing it.

Thanks for the responses.

Anyway I hope there are more megas left that haven't been discovered. I initially loved the concept of mega Pokemon because in theory it would put weaker Pokemon on a higher level, but at the moment it seems more that popular Pokemon from previous gens are getting mega evolutions rather than Pokemon that actually need it to be competitive.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

I believe you can have all of them holding stones if you want to, but you can only activate one per battle.

Ok, I hope its this way. Otherwise, thats just a pain.

 

[Espada]

70/100/100 isn't that impressive. Bulky waters aren't what they used to be unfortunately.

That's perfectly fine, I'm just very glad GF treated such an awesome looking pokemon well in the stat department.

 

[Korosenai]

Any word on Scyther?

Scyther hasn't been seen yet. Could be a post-game 'mon.

 

[Charlie0108]

It belonged to the leaker because it was the lowest leveled in the battle.

I swear the battle was Clawitzer vs Clawitzer and one was 63 or am I imagining things?

 

[strangedopamine]

Found a few more BST estimates on Smogon:

Pokémon: HP/Atk/Def/SpAtk/SpDef/Spe

Sliggoo: 60/70/50/90/120/65 = 455 BST [Give this thing an Eviolite]
Carbink: 40/40/150/40/150/40 = 460 BST [Gimmicky thing]
Tyrantrum: 95/125/120/80/60/75 = 555 BST [Same BST as Arcanine, pretty good!]

 

[Macka]

Where the fuck is Growlithe? Wasn't there a rumour about him and Vulpix being version exclusives? The Arcaninite needs to be real as well :/

 

[Korosenai]

I swear the battle was Clawitzer vs Clawitzer and one was 63 or am I imagining things?

Yeah, one was a level 63 or a 67, and the other was a level 35 or something like that.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

I swear the battle was Clawitzer vs Clawitzer and one was 63 or am I imagining things?

Oh, it was :0
The trainer had a Lv. 63 and the leaker has a Lv.37. Water type Elite Four confirmed?
I never saw that.

 

[UberTag]

Scyther hasn't been seen yet. Could be a post-game 'mon.

Neither has Galvantula despite evidently getting a Mega evolution stone.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

Scyther hasn't been seen yet. Could be a post-game 'mon.

I still bet some Megas are saved for event distribution.

 

[ramyeon]

I swear the battle was Clawitzer vs Clawitzer and one was 63 or am I imagining things?

You're correct, and yeah it is in the E4 apparently.

 

[Unbounded]

Guys,

What if the legendary birds are in this game with mega forms?

What would we do then?

 

[StreetsAhead]

Neither has Galvantula despite evidently getting a Mega evolution stone.

There's been no images or evidence of that, iirc.

 

[Sandfox]

I wonder if we're going to get swarm pokemon after the E4.

 

[ramyeon]

Where the fuck is Growlithe? Wasn't there a rumour about him and Vulpix being version exclusives? The Arcaninite needs to be real as well :/

This is all I want from these games now. Growlithe confirmed and Arcanite confirmed.

Spoiler

Please

 

[DMG-01]

I want some gen 2 starters' Mega Evos.

 

[Hours Left]

Is this true?

So has this been confirmed?

If so, that's totally bogus.

 

[Partition]

So it seems like there's a huge gap in the Mountain Dex still.

Is it possible that there are still new Pokemon yet to be seen? The fact no leaker seems to even encountered Noivern yet is strange itself.
