X/Y General Chat and Speculation

[vaporeon7]

I wonder how my signature moves will be given to more Pokémon. Heaps of them turned into non-signature in gen V.

[Twilight Sky]

What do you mean by that? D: Like, this:

Hmm as for the bank idea. It could be easily executed by incorporating electronic banking. Your trainer card could double as both your ID and bank card so whenever you win/lose a battle you automatically gain/lose money.....actually that sounds like I just came up with some head canon

But yea, at the beginning of the game you could sign up for your bank to receive a percentage of your winnings in a Savings account. Even though this will never happen ;_;

Like how Twineedle could be learnt by Escalivier as well instead of just my good friend, Beedrill.

[Twilight Sky]

Ah, yes. I think it's because Excavalier was somewhat more of a useful Pokemon competitively than Beedrill is, but that's just my opinion in it. u_u But I don't really mind signature moves becoming more diverse, but I also would like signature moves to stick to certain Pokemon~!

[Pinkie-Dawn]

Lets not forget that Rock Wrecker was Rhyperior's signature move before Crustle was able to learn it too.

Hey guys, I always kind of found it interesting if Dive was utilized in this game, too. I'm not asking for an immense amount of water like R/S/E, but I missed those times because actually exploring underwater was a phenominal experience, along with encountering wild Pokemon underwater, and I think there were also underwater caves as well? Personally, I want that kind of experience back in X/Y.

What do you guys think?

[.EJ]

I think it'd be neat to see it being used...although i don't know about it being an HM.

[Twilight Sky]

I don't think it would have to be an HM again, because Dive is pretty useless outside of going underwater, so yeah. XD;

I guess it could be sort of like Rock Smash and Flash where they used to be HM's but now are simply just TM's that can be used outside of battle.

[Twilight Sky]

Yes! n__n I'd also like it if Fly would work in a similar fashion, because I always wanted to explore the skies~!

[.EJ]

:0 that'd be a great idea. Although not a variety in the sky haha except for flying types

[Twilight Sky]

Also, remember that undeground thingy in D/P/Pt in which you can explore for like gems and stuff like that? n__n I'd like for that to make a return too!

I'm probably wanting too much lmao.

[vaporeon7]

I think it'd be interesting if fly worked how it did in Ranger: Guardian Signs, that was pretty enjoyable.

[.EJ]

YES! That's the first thing I thought of when flying around was mentioned. Though I never played Guardian signs entirely so I only remember the intro of your character riding a Staraptor.


@twilight sky: I did love digging around for fossils and stuff. It was like a nice little mini-game. Nah, you're not asking for too much!

Basically you could control where you flew to, and you could encounter Pokémon in the sky. It was great!

[SnowpointQuincy]

Does it feel like forever since Nintendo said anything about Pokemon? It has been like a month with no new info. I would lake to see 1 or 2 little spoilers a month till October.

[.EJ]

Uhh there's speculation that we'll get news in the upcoming weeks but idk much about that.

OH cool. This is the game with the pichu that plays an ukulele right? I never got to actual exploration in the sky. I wish the main series games would incorporate some ideas from the side games.

[Twilight Sky]

We should be getting some scans from CoroCoro sometime next week or so?? Around there, someone can correct me on that. @_@

I believe this is correct yea. At least that's what I heard in some other sites.

Awesome, can't wait for new details. It's now a month since the announcement from Satoru Iwata went live.

Maybe they might reveal some Gym Leaders or new Pokemon or something?

[XanderO]

No guarantee that we'll get anything from CoroCoro since they news won't be region specific anymore. If they release news it'll most likely be done at the same point and time. Even of they did a Pokemon Smash episode, we'd know about any new details roughly the same day with the international Pokemon websites.

I believe the same for Coro Coro.

[SnowpointQuincy]

Thank Goodness! I want these games so much. Fire Emblem Delievery is delayed so nothing else to do.

Except homework....

[Forever]

That is the one disappointing thing about the same-month release. I'd love it if it was spaced out like with B/W, and guessing the English names, etc, that was fun. :( But oh well.

[Twilight Sky]

At least the good news is that, if the news is released next week, that we'll be speculating the heck out of it for another good month or so? :D; So we at least have something else to talk about!
