6th Gen Confirmed Information Discussion

[blue]

I'd consider using Castform in Omega Ruby, especially since we receive one for free half way thorugh the game at the Weather Institute. :3

 

[Killjoy]

I actually want to use Castform in my first run of Alpha Sapphire XD

I did a fire type team playthrough of Black that involved a Castform. It was very usable. You can teach it a pretty varied set of moves

 

[Necrum]

Dude I would love a Mega Castform, but without spoiling I'm pretty sure that the demo dumps didn't find it.

Well they found a lot of missing data taken out from the demo, so there may still be more in the full version (even though we learned a lot from what they did leave behind).

Maybe a Mega Castform could get an ability like Aegislash, but that changes with water, fire, ice, electric, rock, and flying moves instead of attack/defense.

We should be getting the last corocoro before release in 4-8 days. If they show any new Megas then we'll know the demo was missing some.

You mean like Protean? That would be interesting.

 

[ShadowEdge]

I hate when games reveal to much information on a game I hope they keep some mega evolutions secret until release.

 

[Hiatus]

Yeah, I definitely agree with ShadowEdge. Some of us could argue that if we don't wish to be spoiled, we could avoid these information all together, but unfortunately, it's not as easy as it sounds, especially when hanging around in Pokémon sites regularly. Them keeping few mega-evolutions secret until game release does sound like a good plan, if you ask me! Am sure many of us would appreciate it.

 

[ShadowEdge]

This is a huge reason why I don't play fighting games no more look at super smash bros they revealed all the characters before the game was even out. That's why it took me so long to get the game. So please GF keep some Mega Evolutions secret until the game is officially out.

 

[Entermaid]

I promise myself, after I see next gens starter pokemon, I will leave pokecommunity and gaming sites in general to experience a brand new and unexpected region...sadly, with gens 4, 5, and 6 I have been too impatient and never quite had the same experience of discovery as I had in the past.

I mean, at least with gen 5 they TRIED to keep most of the game a secret until the whole dex was leaked, but sadly the new marketing scheme is hype hype hype in pokemon and other games alike.

New info addiction is indeed a tough one to break!

 

[Mark Kamill]

There's definitely gonna be more megas, an interview with Ohomori stated that there are Megas to find in the games that weren't shown yet. I'm paraphrasing, but that was the gist of it.

Oh I hope this is true!

Sadly, I don't think that would be the case thanks to this post courtesy of our trade mod Keiran:

Data doesn't exist for their megastones. Currently, all of the revealed megas are the only new ones.

I don't think we'll be seeing any more new Megas until the next Kalos game or even the 7th Generation games when those come around. I can pretty much say anyone hoping for a Mega Flygon at this stage have had their hopes crushed. It'll always remain in the shadow of its fellow Hoenn Dragon-types for the forseeable future.

If the hackers who uncovered the huge data dump from the demo found data for more Mega Stones it would have revealed more new Megas but nope, what you see is what you get.

 

[Nah]

IDK, I doubt that the demo had ALL the data in it. It is a demo after all.



And info getting leaked doesn't bother me personally. I like knowing what I'm getting myself into. What if I initially want the game, but then the stuff that gets revealed makes me not wanna play it? Just saved myself some money, time, and grief there.

Like with the Smash Bros example, I was very much glad that they revealed the majority of the roster before the game's release. If they didn't, I wouldn't have known that Robin and Lucina made it into the game.

And no matter how much info they reveal beforehand, it's still not the same as immersing yourself in the real thing. Sure, we all know about Mega Sableye, we know what it looks like, we know what it's ability and stats are (approximately), but that's not the same as actually using one yourself. Besides, there will still be plenty of little secrets in the game that they don't reveal beforehand. We never knew the story behind AZ until we played X/Y, nor did we know about the Lumiose Ghost Girl until we played X/Y.

 

[L0RD G3NGAR]

It's confirmed that in the demo data there are 7 extra slots where all the mega stones are. It is very much possible we could get more Megas. Actually, I'm pretty certain we will.
The demo is missing alot of data

 

[ShadowEdge]

If those 7 extra slots are Mega Evolutions, all we can do is hope that GF keeps those 7 Megas hidden until game release. But knowing them and Coro Coro we'll probably get everything revealed soon.

Not they won't... Coro coro and Nintendo have never revealed more than I think, 4 megas at once. I don't know why they would release 7 megas at once... And especially 7 megas within two weeks of the games release. Anyone with common sense would know that it's best off to keep them hidden until you play the game for yourself, even Nintendo.

Same with X&Y... I remember everyone saying we had all the megas revealed, when there was more hidden in the games...and most if those "hidden" ones came from leakes when they games released early. I'm too lazy to actually go back and look, but from memory, there was like 10 megas that weren't revealed before the games officially released,
It's the same with gen 4/5/6 Pokemon, they always keep them hidden for you to find in the game yourself.

I really doubt they'd reveal all new megas before the game releases. And if they do, then they're stupider than I thought lol, it makes no sense.

well haha I guess all we can do is hope :) I hope nothing is in Coro coro.

 

[Nah]

I'd hope that the next CoroCoro doesn't show us any Megas, solely because I wanna see something different. Game Freak, I get it, you like megas, they're this gen's big thing, but unless you show me megas I really want, show me some other stuff too.

 

[MarinoKadame]

I want at least them to show trainers at their Battle Resort, I hope Anabel is still here even if Frontier got renamed.

 

[Liberal Army]

I'm wondering what they'll show in the next Coro Coro scan...
If new Megas do exist (which i'm certain of), then I think 1 or 2 new ones will be revealed. There isn't much else to reveal. Perhaps the version-exclusive legendaries and new locations?
