I just don't like the idea of missing out on entire stages of a Pokemon's evolution because i only pull it out once in a while. Maybe Magikarp was a bad example since a lot of people find him frustrating, but I think you get my point.

I PM'd you by accident because I didn't read the whole thread, my bad.

Another thing is that with each successive Pokemon game, new players are picking it up for the first time. There are kids who have never seen a Bulbasaur or a Lugia, so it's like hundreds of new Pokes for them.

I wish there was an EXP Share lite, that worked like RBY EXP All.
that was so crappy, though
it's not even a good compromise. Keeping the standard Exp Share, in addition to this new Exp All variant would've been nice.

Crappy only because it rounded down and took 5 minutes per battle of messages. I liked the idea of it though, it prevented overlevelling a pokemon.
Welp... looks like I have to wait a few days until people here have caught/transferred all the pokes I want on my team so I can get them and then breed 'em. *sigh*
It's free for a short time, which allows you to transfer your Pokemon.

Just wondering, anyone know if X/Y will be compatible with Pokemon Dream Radar?
I just hope there's a hard mode like in Black/White 2. That would make it all better.
Hard Mode is pretty much turn off EXP Share.

I hope we can save them, along with screenshots, to the SD card and upload 'em from PCs. Or use something similar to Animal Crossing where it uploads to a site of your choice.

Not to me, it isn't. Not now that we already have almost 700 mons
There isn't.

so i just read the joystick review and they said the pokemon cries have NOT been updated, and are all still the old 8-bit cries. Is this correct? People on here were saying all the cries were new or redone, yet other places say they arent?
Between that, HM's sticking around, and you still having to use the pokecenter pc to manager all your pokemon, I'm not sure this game is one I want to dive into :-/ I had my fill with BW2, the series has gotten to the point where the little things are really piling up and bugging me. I'm sure the itch will return though and I'll end up buying X.
I got to wonder who sits there at Gamefreak during the design phase and says "you know what, lets bring back that shitty PC and those terrible HM's! And while we are doing a whole redesign of all the graphics, lets tack on the old 8-bit sounds just for fun. Yeah that sounds like a good quality product".

Not really.
First of all -- it feels bad to have that option hanging over you all the time, and knowing that you can use it at any moment. Second of all it simply makes you less powerful rather than the enemies more -- which is much less fun.
Challenge mode made the game more interesting, adding new Pokemon for trainers and making the main game into an actual challenge at times. If I just wanted my levels to be lower I would have used Max Repel.

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Get hype, overworld trailer. Thanks to ARTPOP
I'm fine with the main quest being easy -- it always is. However, has there been any word on challenging side content like the Battle Subway in BW or the Pokemon World Tournament in B2/W2? Most of the reviews I read didn't go into much detail about these things, with a few just saying that the post-game content is a bit light compared to previous entries.

Loved Pokémon Blue.
Pokémon Gold was alright, beat it, but never got into it the same way that I did with Blue.
In turn, loved Pokémon FireRed, but didn't really get into HeartGold much.
Skipped the next number of generations, figured I was fine with the first one.
Tried getting Pokémon Black to see if I could get back into the newer games.
Kind of lost interest after around 5 hours or so.
Going to give Pokémon X a shot though, and see if I can get back into the newer games again.
Here's hopinig.

All I know is that Noivern, Malamar, and [redacted] have a place in my party. The rest will fall where they may.

Who? Is that Talonflame's name in a different language? It sounds pretty radical.
I need this game now! 8 days!

Okay, I'll let this one go then. Still, finding a luchadore Pokémon would've been such an awesome surprise :<

So did anyone confirm or deny the whole
70 new Pokemon thing?
Amazing.
Don't know yet. Could be a spoiler. Tag it.

I thought it was, but apparently it isn't. I don't reviews, so...
Nothing yet, but
it seems likely to be the case, except it isn't 70, but "about 70", so we might get 70~80 new Pokémon in the end.

I'm assuming many of us are Pokemon veterans. We've put in our time grinding! The new EXP share and EV training via minigames is the best competitive team building news to come out of these new titles.
Glo.Ri.Ous.
I added myself to the list.
