6th Gen X/Y General Chat and Speculation

See i knew that scan was real!

I hope this means we will get more info on Mewtwo's backstory in Gen 6. There was a thread about that kind of thing here a while ago, with a lot of non-believers. I'm glad to see this happening, though. It's looking like gen 6 will be focusing on genetics to some extent at this point. I do wish there was more information or gameplay though.

Well Mewtwo is the first Pokémon to get a Signature move outside of it's generation too...seems like Mewtwo is the only Pokémon who seems to get things outside it's generation that doesn't evolve...

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!NROPIHidnlghiOwhobg klsjpvjlbhseogfl

I hate you Game Freak.

Was its name announced?

The new forme looks... odd, but somewhat cool. I think I'll like it, even though it seems like something straight from an ephemeral subgenre.

edit: You guys knock him far too fast. Everyone did the same thing to Oshawott, then everyone loved him. We've done it to Froakie and already some of the old haters are liking his appearance. Just give it some time.

I do like the design already, I just feel it may ruin Mewtwo for many people.

I loved it as soon as I saw it in better quality (I liked it in the scan too after I found it's body in the image xD). So it's got some love too :3

It only 'ruins it' because it's a new forme to a classic Pokemon. Again, people will grow to love the forme and the original separate from each other, as Mewtwo is still Mewtwo! XD

Hahaha loving all the nostalgia crooks saying they'll quit Pokémon.

It doesn't look bad. In fact, it looks better than the scans! And I totally like the prospect of Mewtwo getting a new form. The game has evolved, and other powerhouses surfaced. Mewtwo the original is still powerful, but a new form might be what it needs to be KING again!

Mewthree/New mewtwo form looks rad in my opinion

I think the same, don't know why it's getting hate, guess it's Nostalgia. I may have joined the based with Gen 3 but I don't think I'll be angry if they ever gave the Latis, or Groudon, and Kyogre formes. I sort of want Groudon to get one so that they can give it fire as a typing :3

I concur with the idea of 'Mewthree.' It fits the trend of the Mew names and what else could it possibly be? Then again, it is just a forme so it could have something completely different!

Eh....they most likely will only redistribute its stats. It'll still be 3rd highest and possibility of them messing him up by taking away his incredible special stat is pretty high.

I imagine Speed and Special Defense will get some sort of tremendous gain, if there's any stat boosts. That thing looks like it levitates and can move extremely fast.

edit: Special Attack, too, of course!

May they give Mewtwo's new forme B and W Kyurem Stats to make it king again? That'll be something...

A different stat distribution might make him more effective in the metagame. And it also could be gaining a new type, who knows.

We got one reveal... wow, that was really anti-climactic. I was expecting something about the games, not just that Mewtwo forme reveal. :s

The Pokemon website has been updated with the New Pokemon, nothing we don't already know but it still looks good.

Pokémon.com makes it sound as if it may not be Mewtwo after all...but Mewthree from the way they're calling it a Pokémon that resembles Mewtwo but isn't quite the same...of course this could also mean it's a more powerful forme as it's stronger than before.

Maybe it's Mewthree and it has to do with someone trying to genetically splice Mewtwo and Mew's genes back together, but yet another malfunction caused Mewthree to be born instead? I don't know, something cool like that. xD
