One thing about this game that I'm disappointed in is that there's no difficulty selection! I want a challenge from the trainers, gym leaders, and the E4!

Last time GF did it people (rightfully) whined about it('s implementation). They might be hesitant.

Well they got to get you to buy the Z version somehow. ;p
Difficulty system + post game + overworld 3D and you're already rolling in money

There kind of is with the EXP share option, have the game auto level everyone for you - or do it the "old fashioned" way and train you team on an individual basis.

This is the only thing I'm ever disappointed from Pokemon games. I would love difficulty selection that's available from the start.
 
Speculation from 4chan:

">Legendary ice-type wolf based on Fenrir
>hint 1: leakers report in-game NPCs mentioning a "legendary wolf pokemon"
>hint 2: Zygarde's asymmetric stat distribution, favoring physical defense
>hint 3: suspicious ice mirror in an empty room in an island in the middle of nowhere
>hint 4, the big one: Burigaron (ブリガロン) — Maybe a blizzard wolf: buri (ブリ) from blizzard (burizaado) + garo (ガロ / 牙狼) meaning fanged wolf. It could also come from garou (餓狼) meaning starving wolf. This was leaked months ago along with many others that ended up being real, including Zygarde."

Zygarde should have been dragon/poison since Jormungandr killed Thor with poison, but I suppose Ground would be more effective against Thor in this universe :P

As far as I know there aren't any ice or mirrors hin Fenrir's mythos, but he was held captive by a ribbon. Are there any special ribbons in the game?

It's kinda weird they did Zygarde as Jormungandr. The trio would have made more sense with Nidhogg since Jormungandr, Fenrir, and Hel are there own trio being the children of Loki that bring about Ragnarok.

Hel was imprisoned in Hel, which is where Christian Hell came from, but it's a frozen place. Maybe Hel and Fenrir have been combined.

Of course, Sleipner, Odin's 6-leged horse, was also Loki's child, but Loki was the mother in that case.
 
The implementation was terrible. Should just be a thing you select when starting the game. Choose your gender, your name, and the difficulty. Harder difficulty bumps up levels, adds more pokemon to trainers for key fights like rival, gym, and e4, and makes the AI actually do smart things like switch or play smart.

I wouldn't be surprised if most of these are already known though. Still, I hope there is an ice wolf.

Difficulty selection was a good feature implemented extremely badly in 'third version'-equivalent games. It was never likely to feature in X&Y :/

Wish they would bring it back, and do it properly.

Hopefully we get a Fenrir. Sucks it seems like he'll be an event one. Probably need an event/mystery gift item to take to the mirror.

I still can't see how they thought having a challenge mode and easy mode only being usable after the main game and being version exclusive was a good idea lol.

Competitions confirmed for Z.
 
Confirmed to be fake. "Not a legendary lair, thanks a lot fake leaker!" (hint: click the link to tumblr)

"This should be where the Ground/Psychic squirrel should be!" Excellent grammar, fake leaker.

Really disappointed since squirrels are one of my favorite animals. At least the Ice wolf rumors seem valid!
 
IT'S TIME. ONE POKEMON FROM EACH GEN. GO!

It's kinda weird they did Zygarde as Jormungandr. The trio would have made more sense with Nidhogg since Jormungandr, Fenrir, and Hel are there own trio being the children of Loki that bring about Ragnarok.

Nidhoggr is sometimes described as a serpent, too. With the other two being part of the Yggdrasil legend, it's not unreasonable to assume Zygarde is still based on Nidhoggr. And the ground typing makes sense in that case due to its position at the roots.
 
Well, if we turn the Exp Share thing off, shouldn't it pose a decent challenge? I was thinking of doing that.
I suppose it makes an artificial challenge.

In B2W2 trainers and such used items and stronger Pokemon, it made the game a lot better. (For me, anyway.) It's weird because you could trade the key and use it at the start of the game and go through it in Challenge mode, but why did they make it so difficult to get the option in the first place. Black 2 got the challenge key, white 2 the easy key. You had to trade it to another game. It's baffling that they didn't make it just a selectable option when starting the game, and how it didn't carry over to X and Y.
 
On a more related note, I think Burigaron is Chespin's final evolution in Japanese, and not an Ice Wolf, as much as I'd love it to be.
 
I heard that the item doesn't work on hidden abilities. I guess it makes sense but it's stupid.
If it doesn't allow for hidden abilities that would suck. I wonder how we're supposed to get them, unless the revamped PGL will have some way of getting them (doesn't seem like Dream World is happening this gen though...)
 
I'm starting to think that Borukeinion (Volcanion) is an event or just something else entirely. There's no fire type in Gen VI that hasn't been named in Japanese except for Delphox and Fletchinder (watch it be Fletchinder lol). Or GF might throw a curveball and it will a Pokemon that isn't even fire type and the name has a different meaning.
 
You know what was completely awesome that I forgot about but should still come back at some point? Hidden Grottos. I only got through about halfway of B2/W2 before restarting, but man those were a cool idea.
 
Nidhoggr is sometimes described as a serpent, too. With the other two being part of the Yggdrasil legend, it's not unreasonable to assume Zygarde is still based on Nidhoggr. And the ground typing makes sense in that case due to its position at the roots.

The reason I'm leaning towards Jormungandr is because Jormungandr was the Midgard Serpent though maybe that wasn't their intent. Jormungandr would fit more as a poison type anyway since that was its thing.

"The squirrel called Ratatöskr runs up and down the length of the Ash, bearing envious words between the eagle and Nídhöggr [the snake]."
