Pokemon X & Y Pokedex

[Sabrewulf238]

I'll be very unhappy if there's anything less than 100 new pokemon. New pokemon is a massive part of the experience for me, without a good variety things start going downhill. A big part of the enjoyment is discovering the pokemon and debating what I'll use.

I think adding 151 would be ideal if only because it would bring the total pokemon up to a lovely round 800 pokemon. However I would be satisfied with 120-130 new pokemon. (something like the third gen)

edit: Just noticed I posted this already, I must be going senile.....

[droomph]

(couldn't find one so I'll just make one)

With there likely being around 800 Pokémon, and the last Pokédex around 300 Pokémon, there likely will be a large amount of regional Pokédex Pokémon.

How many do you think is too much, and what you would like to see? Is more better? Or do you like limited choice?

[Sydian]

I like the big variety. I just hope they don't pull a BW on us and only have gen VI Pokemon till post-game. Quite cruel!

[shubshub]

I Highly doubt they will introduce more than 150 Pokemon

Try more like 750

649 + 150 = 799, but im gonna go with 649 + 151 = 800

[Suicune™]

There's well over 700 so that's an introduction of atleast 52, I liked the amount that made up the B2W2 which was 300 so anything around that figure would be good. For the total number of Pokemon I'm going to guess 731 and for the Pokedex count I'd say around 310?

[shubshub]

Well they Probably Won't add more than 150 This round like they did with BW [156]
Plus this gen will Probably Include some new Evolutions and Pre Evolutions to Older Pokemon

So Maybe about 120-140?

If they do that I'll be very upset. I like seeing some of my old favourites. But I'm all for heaps of new ones too. More to catch, more challenge!

[Brendino]

For some strange reason I think they're going to end up adding 127 new Pokemon (with a dex of around 230), so the total Pokemon up to this point will be 776. Then, if the 7th Generation of Pokemon does happen down the line, I would expect Pokemon #777 to be a legendary, similar to Victini.

I Wouldnt Mind only Having Gen VI Pokemon till Post game that way The Games are More Exciting
(Although if they do this they will probably add about 140-150 Pokemon)


[sarcasm]Like what they did with Gen I You could only find Gen I Pokemon in Red and Blue Before the E4 and even afterwards you could still find only Gen I Pokemon[/sarcasm]
Lol

[tente2]

Less than 140 new Pokemon would be a disappointment for me.

[ga'hoolefan]

I think 151 will be announced, more or less. I personally hope that Crobat and Swoonat will be catchable. Did anyone else realize that Crobat is X-shaped, and Swoobat is Y-shaped?

[Altix]

This game is probably has something to do with DNA. Mew has all pokemon DNA in it right? So could mew be in this game possibly? Could ditto be in the games story to?

[shubshub]

No Because this is 6th gen so the story will only be about the 6th gen pokemon

[Altix]

In the announcement video it showed pokemon from other generations, so it is possible that there are other legendary pokemon in the story.

Well, things can change.

It obviously won't be part of the main story, but it could definitely show up as a side quest.

[shubshub]

no mew wont show up as a side quest because its always been an event Pokemon and it will always remain like that

Maybe through a Mystery Gift Side Quest though

However, in the 4th Generation, even though there were Pokémon from the previous generations, there wasn't a single story based on the previous-generation legendaries.

side quest, mystery side quest, both what I was talking about.

[karatekid552]

No way during the story, unless they finally make a mewthree cause then it would fit. But, because it's a 6th gen game, you wouldn't be able to catch/battle it until after the story because mew is a 1st gen pokemon. Most likely not, however. Sorry.

[bobandbill]

Merged the thread about Mew and Ditto maybe being in the games with this thread as it's all about speculating on what will be in the game's Dex.

[Roswell]

I'm guessing we'll get at least 100 Pokemon (as per usual), but no more than 150. And seeing how there'll be Pokemon from other regions once again, there'll probably be no more than 150 of them or so, meaning the regional Dex could get up to about 300 Pokemon like in BW2. Just some speculation, though.

As for what old Pokemon could appear, I'd hope that they'd try not to have practically the same Pokemon they added to the regional Dex in BW2. It'd be especially nice to have ones that haven't shown up in any of the regional Dexes other than the one in the region the debuted in.

[Naxyr]

Every even Generation pretty much has a lot of new evolutions to originally released Pokemon, so my guess is that the new Pokemon count excluding evolutions to older ones could be around 70-90, with another 30-40 or so new Pokemon being Pre-evos or new evos, so I highly doubt will break the 800 line. In total, the new Pokemon amount could be from 100-130.

However, this isn't the amount of Pokemon I believe will be in the Pokedex. Considering the 649 already released Pokemon, the Gen VI regional Pokedex will probably be around 200 as usual based on Daimond, Pearl, HeartGold, and SoulSilver before game completion, unless they pull a B2W2 Pokedex and completely mess up my info.

What I'd like to see is what Pokemon from older Gens will be recieving evolutions, or even pre-evos. We all know that there will be at least 2 new Eeveelutions (hoping for a good ghost type), but I'd like to see Absol have an evo and pre-evo, at least from what I think based on it's BST (495). Maybe expanding some other evolutionary lines like Ralts to help with variety, and maybe give a legendary a pre-evo like manaphy (or even an evolution. 0.0)

I think Skarmory desurves a better moveset of flying type moves and an evolution/pre-evolution

Oh so you'd like to see Skamory in the PokeDex? I think I'd be okay with that in the PokeDex, if it does include past Pokemon which I'm hoping not. :( But still, I think Skarmory could use more attention, and it might be suited to the region given there's a rocky/steel-looking area from the video at least.

[AWsquared]

From what I hear the number is gonna increase to over 700 and there's at least 50 new. Though to me, 50 seems pretty small. It would be the starters, their evolutions, a few normal Pokemon including the generic bird line and the two-stage generic rat, and that's it.To me, it would just feel odd having such a small amount of new creatures cause I like having a wide range of new Pokemon. So I'm hoping for at least 80-100 new Pokemon and the rest would be older Pokemon which I get we could have at lest 200 total in the regional Pokedex with new and old combined.
