6th Gen Which language?

You can't change the language once you've selected it, so I probably won't go with anything except English.

It would be nice if you just change whenever you wanted but unfortunately that's not the case.

Could do French, but I'm much more comfortable with English nowadays.

Yup, same here. I might just screw around with French just to see how good I am when it comes to understanding it, but otherwise I'll play in English. Actually, my first playthrough will probably just be English, then I'll switch over to French since I'll have same base work laid down so if I get stuck I'll still have a general idea of what to do.

English for me. It's the only language I know and speak.

If only 普通话 was an option. :( I'll probably go with Spanish if it's non-Iberean, or French, at least for the second time around. It's always most fun in your native language, because really, I usually play after work or school, and sometimes I'm too tired to be in French/Spanish speaking mode. Now if only I could play in my current project, Ukranian... :P

There won't be arabic. There will only be english, spanish, french, german, italian, japanese and korean.

I wish more that they even sell the games in the Middle East :/
I don't really think I'd play Pokémon in Arabic though, it would look kinda awkward imo :S

Well, it's kind of pointless to hope for something that will certainly not happen.
Usually, when I hope for something, it's something that can happen...

I like speaking in Spanish sometimes, but I'm not much of a Language fan. I'll probably pay the game in English the majority of the time.

well, a fan translation could happen when all this 3DS hardware stuff gets figured out by the people down at…idk romhacking.net? anyways

Also, they could localize it to the Middle east so that when you buy it in the Middle East (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, etc.) it could have an Arabic option. Besides, I think they had a fatwa against Pokémon a couple of months ago iirc so it's in their best interest to release an edited version out over there.

Why can't you switch language mid-game?????? Whyyyyyyyyyyy???????????

No no no, the fatwa was years ago, Pokémon is already extinct in the ME to get another fatwa that recent...
BUT there are still a few players like me (I know some) & I have faith that if more gamers in the ME started playing Pokémon again Nintendo might just release the games in Arabic but they won't be edited because there's nothing wrong with them & hence they might be released in all ME countries except KSA because of the fatwa.

Sad but true :( remember that this is STILL a kids game & if a kid accidentally changed the lingo then it might become a confusing dilemma to change it back... :P

Sindarin.

What, that's not an option?

leet speek obviously. If not, Engrish, das bee may naytive language. None of those are available? Ahh.. >.>
Boring ol' English it is then.

I'd probably do the whole thing in Spanish as well. The dialog should be good practice for my Spanish skills. Alternately if I could do it in Japanese and see if the dialog speeds up compared to those of other languages. I dunno, but I like this new idea too.

I was going to complete the main story and then change it to french for training.

I'll play it in Spanish since it is my first lenguaje,but mybe i'll change it into english :D

I'm going with English as always. Even if there were an option for Swedish, I would still choose English. I'm planing on trying Y on Japanese during my first run since I can read Japanese.

That's kind of mean. I mean, if you don't find it interesting, don't make us feel like freaks :x

because you know, people find language interesting, they want to learn it.

shrew is right. that is probably the least exciting thing i have heard about X & Y
if you want to learn a language. buy some tapes.
to answer your question. i will be playing the game in english. I'm not some hipster that is going to try and learn a complete different language by playing a pokemon game.

"oh, what can you say in korean?"
Pikachu... i can say Pikachu..
