Team Froakie just won. That middle evo is fucking incredible. And to think I was planning on using all 3 starters. Guess I'll go with Froakie and Charmander.

the X Mewtwo evolution a lot opposed to Mega Y. Mega Garchomp is one ugly motherfucker however.

Poor people that will choose Chespin without knowing the evos... Congratulations! Chespin evolved to Fatspin! While the rivals will have an awesome witch and a great ninja thief... Haha.

I still kinda like it. I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt and say the magazine picture has a bad angle of him (here comes a joke about it looking the same from every angle).

Still unsure who's gonna be my starter though.
 
Anime news probably fits better here than in the Pokébomb thread- Ash is travelling with Serena (the female MC from X and Y), Clemont (Kalos's Electric gym leader) and Bonnie (Clemont's sister) through Kalos. Clemont owns a Dedenne.

Serena <3 Best female character. I'm still unsure whether to choose male or female character. She is great, but I usually choose male, so I don't know...
 
The final countdown~

Fairy will be a new type. It is weak to Poison and Steel, immune to Dragon, super effective against Dragon, Dark, and Fighting, and Fire and Psychic-type Pokemon take half damage from it.
Sylveon is Fairy-type. Some older Pokemon will be reclassified to Fairy, such as Mawile (Steel/Fairy).
Mewtwo has two new formes, not just one. Both are activated via items.

The professor&#8217;s English name is Patrice.
The Starter final evolutions are Fire/Psychic, Grass/Dark, and Water/Fighting.
The first Gym is Bug, the second is Fairy, and the fourth is Fighting.
A few attacks will be dual-typed.
There will be a new type of battling style that Flying-type Pokemon and Pokemon with Levitate can participate in.
You will be able to see a Pokemon&#8217;s EVs at a certain in-game facility. You will be able to boost the EVs through mini-games. It will take about two hours to get one stat to max EVs.

Pancham evolves into Pangoro in the early level 30s. In order to evolve Pancham into Pangoro, you need to have one other Dark-type Pokemon in your party. Pangoro&#8217;s type is Fighting/Dark.
A Pokemon named Inkay evolves into Malimar. To evolve it, you have to hold your 3DS upside-down when it levels up (the 3DS has an accelerometer and gyroscope, so it can detect that). Malimar&#8217;s type is Dark/Psychic.
A Psychic-type Pokemon named Espurr (ESP + purr) evolves into Meowstick (Meow + mystic?).
Like in B/W you have two rivals &#8211; one is friendly and the other is competitive. Your rival that is more friendly gives you his/her fully evolved starter Pokemon after you beat the game.
Another professor named Sycamore gives you either Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle.
Even though it shows the player riding on a Gogoat in the new trailer, players can&#8217;t ride on their own Pokemon. What was shown is just an alternate way of getting around Lumiose City and it only works with Gogoat.
HMs still exist but there&#8217;s a lot less of them.
Players will be able to see their Pokemon&#8217;s EVs
A new move, Belch, is a Poison-type attack that has a base power of 120. The user must consume a held Berry to perform it.
Draining Kiss is a Fairy-type attack that heals the user for the same amount of damage performed. It has a base power of 60.
If the previously revealed forme of Mewtwo can be said to look roughly similar to Mewtwo&#8217;s original design, the second supposed form of Mewtwo can be said to look roughly/vaguely similar to Mew&#8216;s design.
Lol at getting MegaX wrong.

The Espurr thing may be these two cats - I could swear I heard their Japanese names somewhere (&#12491;&#12515;&#12458;&#12491;&#12463;&#12473; Nyaonics)

I can see Fire/Psychic happening.
You know, the whole Fairy thing.
 
I pre-ordered X yesterday. Hopefully it turns out to be the better one.

This might be the first generation that I double-dip right off the bat. Can't wait.

Oh, and even after reveal of Evo2, Team Chespin all the way. Mega
Garchomp
looks like one of the Kaiju from Pacific Rim.
 

Boss Doggie

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
I swear Chespin just evolved into its "cocoon" stage.

I have a feeling it will crack open into something amazing!
