X/Y General Chat and Speculation

[pokemonmasteraaron]

I consistantly lways catch the typical bird Pokémon. I regreted it in b/w, I didn't care for mamipato (pidove0) much. A falkin? That would be awesome!

[Magmaruby and Aquasapphire]

Funny if they do end up doing a falcon as a Dove is a sign of Peace, while a Falcon symbolizes war (at least in Egyptian mythology). A Raven would also be interesting to see, it could be Dark/Flying.

[pokemonmasteraaron]

I really want a raven Pokéon now
It'd be on my team for sure!

[Urugamosu]

Looks like they showed two new silhouettes in Pokèmon Smash! They either looked like regions or new Pokemon, it was a bit blurry

[Twilight Sky]

I would also love a Raven Pokemon! At first, I was thinking of honchkrow as one, but....I dunno. Maybe it's an oversized crow rather than a raven...xD;

I watched today's Smash through ZephyrSonic stream and there weren't any silhouettes shown.

[Magmaruby and Aquasapphire]

I wish they were.
And yeah we haven't had a real raven based Pokémon as Murkrow and it's evo are technically crows with aspects of witches/warlocks. I know what to name mine if they do make a Raven <3

[PokémonShinySilver]

Well, another fake CoroCoro image has surfaced online, and it's very much like the other one. But I wish those Pokémon were real. Gee... wow, whoever made this... took a lot of time and effort to make this image. But yeah, it uses the same sections as from the original trailer and the previous CoroCoro scan in January, but here it is:

[XanderO]

Ok...top is dragon...middle is some kinda ghost...WHAT THE FLIPPIN HELL IS THE BOTTOM ONE?

They are cute. I wish they were real...but ya...what IS that one on the bottom?!

I believe that's a Corythosaurus, which would've been our fossil Pokemon if this scan was the real deal.

As odd as this is...that just made it a lot cuter.

I like the dragon. I wish it was real. :( I'm kind of annoyed at how many fakes there are (meaning, ruining my HOPES) at least than a month in, iirc with B/W there was a lot less at this point lmao.

The amount of hype generated by the announcement, this shows, hm? How much interest there is in these games, all the fakes show!

[Magmaruby and Aquasapphire]

The ghost one kind of reminds me of a ghost versionof Chimecho...
Anyways with the slow news I appreciate the fakes, it gives us something to look at at the very least. Hope we get a cute dragon this generation after seeing these.
Also note we only have 8 months to go and it's going to be 1 month since the announcement in a few days so time seems to be going at a decent pace...for now at least.

[vaporeon7]

I don't even know what top believe anymore...

[Mujahid]

I am enjoying this. We lacked fakemons last generation. All this adds to the excitement, doesn't it.

[HRforges]

I do like how the people who create the fakemons have better crativity then some previous real pokes (were all looking at you scraggy).
And yes i dont like the look of scraggy, what of it?
My reason why is because who wears there pants half way down there knees?

Obviously you haven't seen todays youth...

I suppose fakemon are all part of the fun of a new generation aren't they.

Tell me about. Sadly im apart of the same generation but my mind likes to think it is far from it.
Ok let me refrase it.
What kind of person goes around in public with there pants around there knees who isnt a hooker.

That aside. I think the thing that makes fakemon so, enjoyed by the fans is that they are usualy made by fans, and who knows what the fans whatn better then GF? The fans.

[Forever]

It's kind of even. Some mons are sucky, but eventually you grow to love them except Liepard and some aren't, whereas fakemons if you dislike, you get no real chance to grow to love them, so the real Pokemon actually do have an advantage. Buuuut we'll probably see designs like Scraggy again this time around too ;)

[vaporeon7]

Yes, I already know I will despise many of the new Pokémon designs. But just as before, most will grow on me. Shiftry never did though...

[HRforges]

I dont know what your talking about, shiftry grew on me real quik, though that could be because i played the mystery dungeon that he was in ALOT

Well personally, I've always hated Shiftry and always will. I doubt there will be a new Pokémon that will beat its position. Other Pokémon that I haven't liked like Stunfisk (yes Stunfisk) have grown on me a bit.

[Forever]

Design-wise they may suck buuut as long as they are good competitive-wise, then I'm p sure I'll be pleased with them. :3 For example, I dislike Skuntank in general but in NU I embrace it.

[Aerilyn]

I'm one who prefers to use Pokémon that I like in terms of their design, in-game play or otherwise, I just don't feel satisfied using a Pokémon I generally don't like the look of.

Every generation comes with its assortment of good and bad though, that's more or less to be expected. Some are pretty fast to adjust to, others take time, while some you can never quite manage to embrace.

Usually, seeing the new Pokémon in the anime is what helps me determine if I really end up liking certain Pokémon or not. For example, when RSE first came out and we got to know the starters and their evolutions, I didn't really like Treecko's line. Then I saw it all as I watched the anime and it's now my favorite one.

I hope X and Y give us more nicer Pokémon, than suck-y ones though. :p
