Maybe the Battle Frontier is returning and that is the Battle Arena.

I know, but it still shows they care about their same-generation games being compatible among them. I think they will update XY, especially now that we know they will introduce completely new Abilities. The new Mega Evolutions were enough of an indication to me, but now I find it even more...

They probably would restrict not Groudon and Kyogre, but just any Pokémon that had a Mega Stone or other item, move or Ability not present in XY, from being traded to those games. In the past generation, we were actually able to use the forms introduced in B2W2 in battles with BW, but this time...

I think something to do with meteors or ozone would fit it nicely. Ozone Buster from the TCG would look great on it. It or whatever attack it gets could be like a physical Draco Meteor, or a flying- or dragon-type equivalent of Water Spout and Eruption. It could also just be an equivalent of the...

That's actually news to me; I never knew any of those were signature moves back then. By the time I started actually paying attention to those things it was Gen IV. OK, rephrasing: Maybe all starters will get signature moves (that are actually intended to be signature moves and stay like that)...

Even if ignoring non-Game Freak tiers (which I'll do from now on), they realized it was weaker than the others. In fact, I would even say that Kyurem was originally designed to be weaker. Otherwise, I don't think they would have given it two new formes with 40 extra base total plus some new...

It still needed a boost to be closer to the other mascots (it was like 3 tiers below them). Groudon and Kyogre don't. I think one showed the start of a transformation sequence, then cut to out-of-game graphics.

Ah, I had forgotten about Kyurem's alternate formes. You're right, there's precedent of it happening then. I still consider it a problem however, especially if you take into account that these alternate formes would overshadow Groudon and Kyogre (both of whom are already very powerful) as...

I think I've said it before in this thread, but the problem with Primal Reversion being "permanent" (or just "triggered outside of battle") is that it would leave no reason to use the regular Groudon and Kyogre. Right now, we know Primal Reversion gives a boost to their Abilities, and that it...

This is interesting. Maybe the Orbs will indeed be containers of natural energy. And maybe, if another item is required, it will be held by the legendary Pokémon and act as a Mega Stone for Primal Reversion.

I like the tail idea, especially if it ends up being Ice/Rock. Then it could be a comet. It could even get two tails that way.

It doesn't matter which one is their real form. The mirror makes them switch between their two forms, and we know from its description that one of them is their "original shape" (Origin Forme). That means their other form is an Altered Forme.

Their forme change is effectively the same as switching from Origin Forme to Altered forme. The description for the Reveal Glass says that it "returns a Pokémon to its original shape", so Altered and Origin formes would have applied to them perfectly, and despite that, a new term used only for...

Well, just a bit I'd say. It was basically "chosen god faction plus favorite combat style."

I understand, but they have given certain Pokémon or groups of Pokémon exclusive features before. There are the Therian Formes for Unova's flying trio; that's an entire category just for those three. They could just have used the term Origin Forme for them, a term that was already established...
