See, then today's announcement SHOULD be fine. Since it IS an official announcement. I'm very happy with the rules you mentioned. People that are on blackout from even OFFICIAL rules should stay clear of this thread then.

It looks like they're both good, you can just pick one depending on what you need for your team.
He's supposed to be an audience surrogate, and when R/G first came out the audience probably consisted of children 6-10. What were you expecting?
Clearly they expect the
internet fabricated
You forgot the part where he makes every pokeball make a catch by snapping his fingers.

I hate the internet's BADASS RED. He's a normal dude who happens to be really good at Pokemon. The manga Red is one of the best trainers in the world and he's just a really cheerful kid. But no, we need an EDGY, BADASS Red.

How so? Pretty sure Red is better than than Ash at everything.
EDIT:
*Swoons*
Hahahaha holy shit
Imagine if you post in another thread and you saw his avatar and you went fucking nuts at him

Chespin suffering that dreaded Treecko disease where it gets uglier as it evolves.

I love all 3 starter final evos. <3
Yeah. Seriously.
I like believing in karma. All this superior froakie talk should have gotten this.
I remember reading Joe post that it will be a week after Pokemon releases.
I don't live in the UK, and don't know anything about it and I may have misremembered things, so yea. Sorry if this is wrong.

Instead all the superior Chespin talk got their just desserts.
Ah that's okay, I live here and I'm just a lazy bellend haha. Cheers!
Was hoping GTA:O would tide me over for a while until X comes but I'm getting antsy seeing all the leaks

I'm already picking Squirtle and probably won't start a new character even with Pokebank, so I have to find a different way to acquire (Are these still spoilers?)
regardless of which version I pick.

All starter evos leaked, and I suspect most of the Pokedex will be known by this time tomorrow.
I don't mind if they get leaked somewhere else, in another thread or w/e. Just if people in here go "omg xx looks like crap/looks amazing/is amazing", that's too much.
Yeah, I myself try to keep a neutral tone when discussing the leaks in this thread. I know that inflection can give just as much away as the information itself.
Really, best case scenario is to just steer clear of GAF in the interim because the info is being widely discussed.
Well, you know, what looks crap for someone might look cool for another. Perhaps with your expectations low, you will find the final design much better. Or vice-versa.
I got some news from a legitimate source, my uncle works at Gamefreak as part of their Hispanic exchange program and learned all about the new Pokemon games.
MASSIVE SPOILERS*
Froakie evolves into a turtle. I know it's a frog, but frogs are reptiles and turtles are reptiles, so it's all the same thing. It also becomes a ninja with a bandanna that will randomly be one of four colors: Blue, red, orange, and purple. Its typing will be Water/Ninja, and it will be an example of the previously unrevealed Ninja type. Froakie3 has two signature moves: Sushi Katana and Pizza Cutter.
After a rather svelte second evolution, Fennekin3 gains about 400 pounds and becomes a sumo wrestler-themed Fire/Fighting Pokemon. In addition to inheriting the Tepig line's signature move "Heat Crash", it also learns the Fighting move "Hundred Hand Slap," which is a multi-hitting move in which each hit does 5 damage; you can get more hits out if you rapidly press the A button.
Chespin doesn't evolve. It's an experiment with the very first non-evolving starter. To compensate, Chespin's Mega Evolution (Yes, it has a Mega Evolution) will make it become a much better Grass Pokemon like Breloom or Venusaur. Sorry Chespin fans, looks like you're out in the cold. I'll be enjoying my sumo wrestler fox very much, thank you.
*None of the above are actually spoilers.

Some hardcheese linked me a picture of Chespin's final form without warning as to what it was, so I guess the surprise is ruined now :/
That said, I don't mind it too too much. I'll need to re-think my nickname for it now as my old one isn't really applicable any more...
THESE MIGHT COUNT AS SPOILERS IF YOU'RE PERSNICKETY

Maybe Kellam if it's male and Vi if it's female.
Go with #teambox. Boxing a starter is the best way to be a cool guy.
I boxed my Samurott very, very late in White 2. I used it as an HM slave for the longest time at that point and realized I was done using HM's.
I can't though
they're your starter!

Realtalk: I would be entirely okay with this being Froakie's final evolution:
He could join Scrafty and Kung Fool Panda in the league of gangster-themed Dark types!

edit that shit
What? Why? I have no idea what Froakie's final evolution looks like nor do I know its typing outside of the rumoured Dark subtype that's been talked about since early May. I'm as blind as you are, brother.

"Brother?" Only Hulk Hogan fans use that term! FROAKIE'S FINAL FORM IS WATER/FIGHTING CONFIRMED
