268 unobtainable Pokemon? It's Gen III all over again! Gotta catch as many as I can in BW before the big transfer in December.

 

[k91191]

I thought this might be helpful. It's a list I made of Pokemon that haven't been found in the Kalos region yet.

Kalos Pokédex (incomplete) (thanks Kanpachi and Crosscontaminant from the SA forums)

Thought this info would be useful again.

There are 268 not in the regional dex(es). We still know little about the postgame and what's available there.

When we're given 450 Pokemon spanning three distinct Regional dexes... I think it's a little presumptuous to assume that we'll get a host of others once the National dex opens up.

I never said that there would be a lot. My point is that it's no more valid to assume otherwise at this point.

 

[StreetsAhead]

Wait, there are 75 Pokemon? Could someone provide me a list of every new Pokemon?

Pretty sure there is actually 69. Maybe people are counting gender or form differences?

Yep, 69 by my count.

 

[Artemisia]

We're still waiting for confirmation on this.
But the only leaker whose mission it is to share with us this information is busy trying on hats.

Florges confirmed as pure Fairy (not Fairy/Grass dual).
Because if there's anything this gen needs is more pure Fairies.

Wow, what a shitty ability.

 

[TrickRoom]

Hex maniacs are back, more maniacal than ever...

 

[Macka]

Would having a Florges with that ability on your team mean that Breloom wouldn't lose defenses by using Close Combat?

Remember when everyone thought we were going to get 70 Pokemon? Dreams of a forgotten age...

 

[IWKYB]

This and Goodra should have really been made into poison pokemon. I don't get it at all. So odd.

GF hates Poison. They hate Bret Michael after all.

Tharja has made them popular,

Every Roserade Has Its Thorn?

Mega Ampharos Stats / Ability / Typing:

 

[Veitsev]

Dragon? Bad. Ass.

 

[Razzle Dazzle]

Overall I'm really happy with this gen. Lots of awesome new pokemon, fairy type is awesome, love the new graphics of the game, and the new things gamefreak did 2 competitive battling with megas and new interesting moves.

My only complaint is megas (aside from as I said their competitive scene). Not a big fan of them. Regardless this generation is amazing.

 

[IHaveIce]

Mega Ampharos Stats / Ability / Typing:

Wanted to say stats suck ass but then saw it only being level 30.

 

[IWKYB]

Roserade is a poison type after all. Okay I'm out of bad jokes.

 

[Macka]

How does Mold Breaker benefit Mega Ampharos? I've only seen that ability on physical Pokemon before, which is handy for them to fire off Earthquakes on levitating Pokemon. Amphy on the other hand...I can't think of anything.

It negates Sturdy?

EDIT: Lightningrod and Motor Drive. Duh.

Lets it kill Shedinja with thunderbolt,

 

[Macka]

Thick fat, marvel scale, heatproof as well...okay, I get it.

 

[Kurita]

So... Any info on the post-game?

 

[Gregorn]

70th will be the 'mew' that we'll find out about next year or whenever it's possible to hack the 3DS.

 

[Sigismundo]

"Maybe if you got rid of that yee-yee-ass haircut, you'd get some bitches on your dick!"

BIG DAWG, BIG NUTZ

Mega Amphy's SpAtk is absurd. Bit of a shame he's still ridiculously slow but oh well.

 

[Pikawil]

In the meantime, here's a pic of a trainer that looks like a demented character you might find in Higurashi or Corpse Party...

Somehow looks more like Tomoko Kuroki's lost cousin to me...

Might be good in Trick Room

 

[Forceatowulf]

So is Growlithe X exclusive or what? If I can't get Arcanite from Y I am changing my pre-order immediately...

Chary X already made me question my allegiance to Y. But Arcanite being exclusive will be the nail in the fucking coffin.

There is no Mega Arcanine confirmed for either version.

 

[F0rneus]

So... Any info on the post-game?

Safari and Battle Tower, have been leaked. I heard the tower is huge, this time around. I think it's called Battle Maison now, too

 

[kiguel182]

Those are some ugly final evos, I can't seem to like most new pokemon designs since gen2. Shame.

 

[Zelias]

Adding my voice to the chorus of disapproval over Zygarde's typing. Did we really need another Ground/Dragon? It looks kinda neat though, and I love the Norse motif.

What info do we have on the Battle Maison, beyond it existing?

 

[ramyeon]

I'll just leave this here.

And this is new I think.

 

[UberTag]

And we now have our glorious Poison / Dragon! And there was much rejoicing! TEAM Y WINS!

 

[Dascu]

Great news.

 

[vall03]

I'll just leave this here.

Superior Y confirmed!

 

[ArchedThunder]

Remember when everyone thought we were going to get 70 Pokemon? Dreams of a forgotten age...

There is probably at least one more Legendary.

 

[Zalman]

Overall I'm fairly disappointed with the designs this generation. It started off well with the starters and the legendaries (best in a LONG time), but overall it's pretty overwhelming IMO. It's a shame, but at least there's a lot of old Pokémon in the game to choose from.

 

[ffdgh]

The poison dragon no one was expecting.

Nonetheless I welcome our new type combo mon.

 

[The Silver]

The poison/dragon overlord has ARRIVED.

 

[vall03]

Btw, how do you evolve Skrelp to Dragalge? Wasn't there a report that it doesn't evolve at Level37? Was there some trick or just a higher level around 40+ based on the pic?

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Yes! Poison/Dragon come to my team!

 

[GasProblem]

I'll just leave this here.

And this is new I think.

Poison/Dragon.

Oh yeaahhhhh, he's going on my team.

Now I can pick Froakie and not have two water types in my team <3

 

[Tiamant]

HAHAHAHA NOW WHAT TEAM X SUCKERS?

The Dragon that shall rule all fairies!

 

[ramyeon]

Min. lv 37 and then levelling up while it knows the move Camouflage apparently.

HAHAHAHA NOW WHAT TEAM X SUCKERS?

The Dragon that shall rule all fairies!

Now I'll catch 2 Claunchers and trade one for a Skrelp. Easy

 

[Coffee Dog]

I'm glad this game has so much focus on older pokemon. I hate the trend of throwing out nearly everything each gen and starting over; i love that this game is taking some of the best pokemon from every gen to offer the best selection of pokemon ever.

 

[QisTopTier]

HAHAHAHA NOW WHAT TEAM X SUCKERS?

The Dragon that shall rule all fairies!

Not with that speed lol plus... all those weaknesses? Okay sure

 

[Antiwhippy]

HAHAHAHA NOW WHAT TEAM X SUCKERS?

The Dragon that shall rule all fairies!

I'll just trade for it.

*shrug*

 

[ramyeon]

And yeah, not the best stats...

 

[Mechamortal]

Can't believe all the Groudon hate in here. He's badass.

 

[Zalman]

HAHAHAHA NOW WHAT TEAM X SUCKERS?

The Dragon that shall rule all fairies!

We get Charizard X - the superior Dragon.
