'Grey' is also the correct spelling in the States. It's just that 'gray' is also acceptable (but only in the US) and is more commonly used for some reason. For super-intelligent purposes, I reckon we should stick with the spelling that is correct internationally.

We spell it "gray" just to spite you.

In that case I'm changing my vote to team Wii.

I've always been spelling it Gray. Works better for me.
Steve Jobs would make a thread and then lock it himself.
i'll agree that its frustrating sometimes. I' still trying to get a near flawless riolu from challengers cave.
edit: pro gray

This is the weirdest debate...
Flareon.
I'm hoping Nintendo gives him a massive boost soon.
Flareon @ Leftovers
Ability: Speed Boost
Nature: Adament
~ Protect
~ Flare Blitz
~ Earthquake
~ Baton Pass
LOL, if Nintendo let this happen it'd be AWESOME.
it'll take advantage of the added online functionality, i think that's gonna be the focus
All of those are decent to good in either VGC '11 or '12...
Gastrodon is pretty great now.
Wouldn't it just be easiest to breed some?
That... is a good point. I think I must of been stuck in the mindset of having to go out and catch dittos for nature. Whoops.
Okay guys I need to be careful with my choice here. You might not know this, but I possess a special, lethal, sure-kill power: there's a 100% chance the outcome will be the opposite of my choice.
I'm sorry, but in this case I'm forced to pick DS. I can't risk it.
:lol so that's the "boost" you were talking about?
I guess if we're gonna be optimistic, might as well take it all the way.
IIRC that's not possible.
Guys if you like anime come into my new thread I'm afraid no-one will post in it because it uses long sentences.
I'm sure pizzaroll will post there.
He usually comes in to disagree with me, yes!
Yeah, instead of just his Speed, all of his stats +1 at the end of each turn.

Wait, you're not Chinner?
I can't see Gray AND the R/S remakes go anywhere but the DS. Gray because it's basically a slightly enhanced version of Black & White, and they need to be compatible, both in gameplay and engine.
R/S remakes because they haven't milked out the B/W engine just yet and it would be the perfect swan song for the DS, before making the enormous jump to Gen. 6 on 3DS.
Remember that D/P weren't released 2 years after the introduction of the DS, I could see them do it again.

If it's on DS, Grey would have been released one and a half years after the 3DS came out in Japan, and two years after it came out in the west. It would be roughly similar in terms of timeframes to putting Diamond and Pearl on GBA.
As for Ruby and Sapphire... you do realise that they probably won't be released in Japan until the autumn of next year? I find it difficult to conceive of a mainline Pokemon game being released nearly two years after the successor console has come out, but 3 years would be utter stupidity on Game Freak's part.
Like it or like it not, Game Freak's going to have to embrace the future and move on long before that point. I firmly believe that the cycle that we've had for the past two generations is going to be broken this time out, simply due to the console transition.
Very much true. In that sense, wouldn't it be more logical for Gamefreak to 'delay' R/S remakes (hell, there isn't even been an announcement made) to Gen. 6? Release Gray sometime this year, followed by remakes the year after etc. instead of the assumption they are still coming this gen?
I bought a 3DS last week (with HG & Plat.), so I'm good for a while, but still.
I don't mean graphically enhancements but more like some AR things and such...
We will see... it seems the most logical solution, the ds have an huge installed base but also they will make some neat add-ons for the 3ds so you can sell it to both pools of users.
Wait, so all ducks look alike you you?
Racist.
I meant that the way the 3DS handles DS games means it won't be able to access any 3DS exclusive features.
If its DS we all lose.

The winning team will be allowed to enjoy the game. The losers may still play it, but must keep the shame of being incorrect in their mind throughout.
He said it wasn't.
Nope.
At this stage Team DS is so small they all automatically become PokéGAF royalty in event of victory.
Also you have to pick a side in PokéGAF arguments or you're not allowed to play.

Red ≠ Ash, for the record, but I do agree that Ash ha

I also hear Growlith can't run the entire circumference of the Earth in a day!
Yes? We were talking about Ash, not Red. Red's Pikachu is just some common muck picked up from Viridian forest.
I doubt it.
