Wonder how Ghost moves will affect Normal/Fairy Pokemon (like Wigglytuff)? Will Ghost moves be useless, like how Psychic type moves are with any Dark type, no matter what the Dark type Pokemon might have for its second type?

Immunities take precedence. Any pokemon with Normal as one of its typings is immune to Ghost.

 

[Firemind]

Auto weather nerf is the biggest improvement so far. Thank goodness. Steel type weakening is cool too, though I feel bad for Metagross and Jirachi. That's fine though, they now resist fairy which seems pretty prominent.

And Gengar with great stat improvements and shadow tag? Excellent. This gen in going to be interesting. Looks like it will revolve a lot around taking out the opposing Mega and supporting your own. Wonder if trick/knock off etc can unmega after they've powered up...

And Knock Off. Someone test this. Pronto!

 

[jelmerjt]

No mega Pokemon @ Elite Four. Pff

 

[Sigismundo]

Gengar is already OU and Poison being buffed offensively only helps him. We'll see what happens with his mega form. Hopefully they just ban the item and not the pokemon if it ends up too powerful.

I've been talking to the guy in charge of Gen 6 OU and he says he's gonna take it on a case by case basis.

 

[Tyeforce]

So what's this about

Spoiler

getting a second Kalos starter after you beat the game

? Is that true? And if so, which one do you get? Knowing the answer will really help me in my decision of which starter I choose...

Spoiler

Also, is it known if we receive any other region's starter, too?

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

And Knock Off. Someone test this. Pronto!

I think it should unmega them because they still hold the stone while in mega state. According to the Mega Gengar stat screen.

 

[Darknight34]

Why u no mega

It's my baby, he looks so good. I'm yearning to see/know about his mega.

 

[ramyeon]

I don't know if it was confirmed but apparently:
Gible for X
Bagon for Y

As they were both found in the same area in each version.

No past version exclusives have been confirmed, we don't even know if there are any.

Gible was found in Y as well, so it may just be swapped encounter rates.

obviously you pick Froakie at first, then pick up Fennekin in postgame
nobody wants you, Chespin

 

[balladofwindfishes]

According to smogon, you cannot knock off a mega stone. Chances are you probably can't covet, thief or trick it either.

 

[Kouriozan]

Ugh, screw the legendary birds trios so overused.

No!
I need more member for my flying type team!

Spoiler

Also I don't wanna wait December

 

[yami4ct]

Probably a good thing. Such a hard counter to all megas would kill their usefulness. The one per battle limit and no hold item is limiting enough for the not legendary ones.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Nah, pick chespin first, get froakie.

Poor fennekin.

 

[yami4ct]

Pick Fennekin first and then get really sad when a Chespin is forced upon you.

Boooooo!

 

[Anura]

Xerneas/Yveltal battle music

IMO as far as legend battle music goes they have yet to top dialga/palkia

 

[Divvy]

Clawitzer is still fucking amazing

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Frisk works on Mega Stone
Gardevoir's is Gardevoirite

 

[Firemind]

You're funny!

 

[Astral/H3X]

If Gyarados has a pixilate/refrigerate esque Dark ability, I would totally be forgiving of his Water/Dark typing.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Frisk works on Mega Stone
Gardevoir's is Gardevoirite

Any info on how to get it?

Mega Gardevoir @ Champion:

 

[Kirlia]

Pick Fennekin first and then get really sad when a Chespin is forced upon you.

...is it possible to like a Kalos starter without totally despising another?

Also, turns out that Delphox has a wand after all:

 

[Sigismundo]

You're funny!

I am funny, but I'm being serious here.

"Case by case basis" meaning he'd probably ban the Mega Stones before he banned the Pokémon.

 

[KillerTravis]

Preordering X for Clauncher was worth it. Well worth it.

 

[Caladrius]

Something tells me item thieves are going to get bumped up a few tiers.

About Mega Gardevoir:

She is currently wrecking my shit as we speak.

 

[Kouriozan]

You must join the hate train!
Also I like them all

Spoiler

I just like Chespin better

Edit: ^ good, Gardevoir is awesome.

I think they're all great what I've seen in the Pokemon fandom since coming back for X/Y has been a lot of extreme opinions and hyperbole though lol especially about starters and which version is "better".

 

[yami4ct]

...is it possible to like a Kalos starter without totally despising another?

Also, turns out that Delphox has a wand after all:

Probably. I love both Froakie and Fennekin. Usually there's at least one starter a generation I don't like. You can't win them all.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

About Mega Gardevoir:

This is so awesome.

 

[BlackJace]

Damn, Champion's arena is gorgeous.

 

[Espada]

About Mega Gardevoir:

Not surprised, his team is kinda garbage. We've seen Mega Gardevoir's stats and they're not all that.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Clawitzer!

OMG that arm cannon.

So beautiful.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Arourus saved the day.
I'm definitely using one.

 

[Delio]

Yeah i watched a guy battle with it on a youtube vid. So glad it retains that wand in it's sleeve.

 

[Neiteio]

Didn't the rumor about the E4 using Megas indicate they Mega Evolve their Pokemon during the rematch? Is this the leaker's first go-around or a rematch?

 

[jelmerjt]

Woohoo

Well with no Revives left and only Aurorus left standing, he delivered the goods. It's done.

 

[Kouriozan]

Aurorus saved the day, praise him!

 

[Vermillion]

Still TeamDelphox

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

AZ battle now.

No mega stones on his team.

 

[jelmerjt]

He's back.

Time to start stealing from wild pokemon?

 

[Kouriozan]

Oh yes, they give you the starter your strong against after the Elite 4, nice!

Spoiler

Even if I'm getting every ones at the start.

 

[Neiteio]

Time to start stealing from wild pokemon?

Can you steal Mega Stones, or does it just reveal that they're there?

 

[Hedge]

Are mega stones held when capturing the pokemon, or are they found?

 

[Zaventem]

I love that auto weather got put to 5 turns

 

[jelmerjt]

"Battle me. I want to see what a 'Trainer' is."

Upon beating him;

"Thank you for battling me. Now I can finally feel free."

AND THEN HIS OLD POKEMON, SHINY FLOETTE, FALLS FROM THE SKY.

"Floette... It's been nearly 3,000 years..."

-CREDIT ROLL-

 

[ffdgh]

Just reveal that they're there. Now to see if knock off works too.
