really curious if megaform will find any use in competitive, you can only have 1 per party and losing an item slot is a big freaking deal.

 

[ColtraineGF]

Almost 500, or more to see

Megas vary in power from good to super-Uber (especially Mega Mewtwo Y...)

 

[Firemind]

I'm sure Ampharos doesn't mind losing the item to become a dragon.

 

[ivysaur12]

It's so close. I have so much I need to finish beforehand. But oh my god it's so close.

 

[Clov]

Do we already know all of the Mega Evolutions, or are there still more unknown?

Really hoping for a Mega Porygon-Z or a Mega Alakazam.

which i guess wouldn't really find its way into competitive in the first place lol. is MMY really much outclassed by mewtwo + lifeorb though?

You can check in the leaks thread, there should be lists there.

Well, this is the base stat spread (M top, MMY bottom):

106/110/90/154/ 90/130
[spoiler]106/150/70/194/120/140[/spoiler]

 

[pahamrick]

Aside from messing with a friends copy of platinum for like 30 minutes this will be my first pokemon game. With my two closest friends getting Y I ended up doing some trades for X.

Should be a fun weekend.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

With any luck Thursday night/Friday morning for me. Would be so sick to play all day Friday.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

It really is nice to see all you players of the old games lured back to XY

Mega Forms were a success then.

so a pretty good damage speed boost. but that def sacrifice.


I'm actually more interested in mewtwo x. really curious how one can utilize him well. Are there stats of him around?

I don't think so, since no leaker has used X yet.

 

[chickdigger802]

dont get whats the hate for mewtwo x on other boards. who can hate on popeyes?

 

[hidys]

And the age old question, Pokemon or Beer?

 

[chickdigger802]

And the age old question, Pokemon or Beer?

Surprised that there isn't a beer mug Pokemon yet.

 

[Jockel]

And the age old question, Pokemon or Beer?

Also, is there any evidence of German copies leaking?
Or can somebody provide a nice shot that shows it's the European version? Sometimes I can persuade the poor retail guys with evidence that it's available elsewhere.

 

[ArkkAngel007]

Shhhhhh!

And Pokemon, due to my diabeticness limiting the unlimited amount of tolerance of beer I have.

Apparently a German retailer shipped stuff on Friday and it arrived yesterday/today

 

[Andrax]

Hmm... I should probably just stick with 1 order but I keep jumping around trying to get it earlier.

Pokémon sure brings the kid out in me.

I totally agree. I had a preorder with Amazon, realized that it will only arrive on the 16th. I now preordered with gamestop (bleh). I am also calling into my local game stores to see if they have it early... No luck so far.

 

[Ragus]

EuroGaf here - just got an email, that my copy of superior Y will be dispatched tomorrow.

Thursday is going to be a good day.

Oh, and I'm starting with Squirtle and leaving one of new starters in a box. On a scale from 1 to 10, how bad of a person am I?

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

X or Y...I can't decide GAF!

Help me!

Which one and why?

 

[Darklord]

Is there a list of which Pokemon are exclusive to which version yet?

Wow... So Canada starts the leaks... Then Euro gets the games 4 days in advance...

US getting that long shaft of justice....


And I give you a 7 because I love Squirtle but Froakie is awesome and doesn't deserve to be boxed... But if you choose Fennekin then I give you a 3.

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

Not just Pokemon but what are the differences in terms of regions, exclusive areas, etc?

 

[SeZMehK]

X or Y...I can't decide GAF!

Help me!

Which one and why?

I say Y because Yveltal looks like a dragon from the BoF series. Also that since it looks like a dragon: Dragon > Deer. Lol.

 

[Elider]

X or Y...I can't decide GAF!

Help me!

Which one and why?

Y, because the less people that get X, the higher demand will be for my exclusives

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

I am super excited for this despite a few facts about the new Pokemon that bug me. Bring it on!

 

[LegoArmo]

Is GAME.co.uk 's deal for the digital version good? £34.99 and a free download of Pokedex 3D Pro.

I can't decide between that and the physical version for a bit cheaper elsewhere.

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

I say Y because Yveltal looks like a dragon from the BoF series. Also that since it looks like a dragon: Dragon > Deer. Lol.

So there's no difference in regions or areas other than the legendary Pokemon?

Black/White had a exclusive area like a forest and city. Does X/Y have anything like that?

That's a good deal given Nintendo are charging £39.99 for just the game on the eShop.

 

[Tusk]

We don't know. The leakers played Y.

 

[-Horizon-]

X or Y...I can't decide GAF!

Which one and why?

That's a really good deal, go for it!

Which reminds me - will Pokedex 3D be updated with the newcomers? I hope so (and then I might actually get it)

 

[dc89]

Shopto are 'processing' my order. Despatch tomorrow is looking nailed on.

[kittens]

I want this game now pls lord k thx.

 

[ruimound]

Wait, how do version exclusive mega evolutions work? Can I not access Mega Charizard X at all if I'm playing Y, or do I just have to get the Mega Charizardite X Stone traded over?

 

[FSLink]

The latter. Trading.

 

[Highwind]

I too have gotten my order receipt for X & Y on shopto.

It's happening!

 

[LAA]

Urgh, I'm starting to reconsidering which to get X or Y...

I like Y for the legendary pokemon, but I'm liking X for the mega evolution pokemon...

Is it possible to get the mega evolution pokemon in either version? I read its a temporary thing and its done using an item? Can items be traded?

 

[Zelias]

Still waiting for ShopTo to process my order. I did only preorder last week though, will that affect it at all? Haven't used them before.

 

[QuiteWhittle]

Yes to all three.

I don't how widespread it is in Canada but I haven't found anyone in Toronto breaking street date.

 

[MicH]

FWIW I ordered last night and mine is already processing (Y version)

 

[Zalman]

Shouldn't make a huge difference. I changed my preorder to X last week and mine is already processing.
