6th Gen X/Y General Chat and Speculation

I doubt they will. I think they will reveal the starters evolutions, and that's it. I'm just guessing because they suddenly decided to do a worldwide release, so why not hide everything they can until the big day? This means people are still curious for the new Pokemon and are shut off at the ones they don't like, so people will still get it.

Or they'll wait till after it is release to find out.

I don't think a worldwide simultaneous release would have an effect on the anything, they usually reveal the whole Pokedex before releasing the games which has always been the case as far as I'm aware.

I hope you're right....I would be satisfied if it was at least the starter evolutions

True. For some reason I recall them saying that they were going to keep gen 5 hush hush, but I don't remember if that was true or speculation. Either way, I am just glad it's only ten months rather than a year or two.

I remember the gen V Pokédex got leaked a bit before the release.

Well ya know 10 months plus anticipation = 2 years. Any source saying they would be hush, hush on any new details?

I think gamefreak r rushing it a bit

Let's stop spending all our time speculating and do something constructive...like building a time machine to take us forward to october, where everything is confirmed or denied! :) if only

Not yet that I've seen. I'm just guessing and preparing for that just in case haha

I wonder if we will get to battle any of the Game Freak staff again like we did in gen V.

Within 9 Months I'm sure they will reveal more than just starter evolutions, there's the Region name, cities, gym leaders, rivals etc.

Did anybody else think when bw was in speculation mode that tepig would evolve in to a part ground type? I know I did.

Just because the games are going to be released internationally all at once, I don't think they'll hold back on the information for the next 9 months. Like Suicune mentioned, there's still a whole lot we're going to see, and there's no way GameFreak and Nintendo aren't going to promote these games and show off what's to come in just a number of months.

I was one who speculated that Tepig would either be part Dark or part Ground. Alas, they stuck with the norm and made it chubby, bipedal, and turned it into a sumo wrestler. Sigh.

Yep, we've always got to know this stuff even before Japanese release. And know that its global, people from all parts of the globe will be starving for information. Who knows, we could see some extremely big sales numbers, like we've never seen before.

I hope the Fire Type Fox evovles into a Fire/Fight Pokemon like the last THREE GENERATIONS in a row!

LOL. I'm sure someone said that already, but I'm still not over the hurt. Emboar could be so much better as pure fire.

I hope these evolutions are as good as the starters. I thought personally snivy would be grass dark. But just grass worked out. Chespin, I sure hope, wont be ground type.

I like grass/ground! It would get rid of the Water resistance though so unlikely I think.

So, do you think the music will stay midilike? or do you think it's going to be music streams like the b2/w2 titlescreen theme?

Eh, they can do anything though~ They could create steel-armor for the fire type's final evo and there we would have a fire / steel type. There are loads of possibilities!

I wouldn't mind a grass / ground combo either; since Torterra destroyed those pesky poison types during the time I played Platinum version~ <3

The music will definitely be improved to 3DS sound quality, that's for sure.
