6th Gen X/Y General Chat and Speculation

[Ho-Oh]

Oh, well yes...

But it doesn't really look like it has wings! Maybe it just glides across the sky like certain possums (or squirrels) idk...?

 

[Ω Ruby and α Sapphire]

Hmmm, my idea is that he flies like Rayquaza.

If you look at the white parts they kinda look like tiny useless wings? Still, I find it hard to believe he could fly! That's Poke logic for you!

 

[Echidna]

I always imagined Gyarados had wings o.o
Ok this is getting overly awkward. I mean, if it was part dragon, I suppose it would be possible it could levitate by nature, without that particular ability. But now this just makes GameFreak utterly stupid ._.

 

[Platinum Lucario]

I thought it'd have Levitate too if not Flying because how else would it get into the sky lmao but honestly if it wasn't part Flying or didn't have Levitate I would get really confused because HOW ELSE DOES IT GET INTO THE SKY??

I think even a Pokémon with wings doesn't always mean that it's a Flying-type, it depends if it has some other secondary type that is necessary would replace what was normally intended to be Flying-type.

Like for instance, Beedrill, Venomoth, Dustox and Volcarona have wings, and they don't have a Flying-type and they don't have Levitate. ;)

Isn't Gyarados based off like an asian dragon kite or something and that's why it's flying?

I'm pretty sure Gyarados is based off a fish wind sock, I'm sure if you've played Animal Crossing on the GameCube, you'll know how they'll look like. xD

But apart from that, I wonder if we'll see those Pokémon return in Pokémon X and Y? :P

There was a Magikarp in the trailer, if that says anything.

Ah yeah, I remember a Magikarp in the trailer.

Hopefully there won't be any Magikarp Salesman in Pokémon X and Y, like there was in Pokémon Red/Green/Blue/Yellow. xD

I didn't mind the Magikarp Salesman. It was not like you had to buy it. Of course I always did though xD

For old time sake and a good laugh, I wouldn't be opposed to the old Magikarp Salesman showing up again.

 

[Ho-Oh]

He was also in B/W too!! :3 So that means he might be in these games...!

 

[vaporeon7]

He was probably there because there were no Magikarp in the wild. But that still means Game Freak hasn't forgotten about him. I'm just glad he doesn't have the accent that he does in the anime.

 

[blue]

Maybe, then again it's just as easy to catch one literally anywhere in the Water areas with a Rod.

Interestingly enough, unless you catch a Magikarp at the Safari Zone, or in two or less Pokéballs, it's actually cheaper to buy his in R/B/Y.

 

[Miss Doronjo]

OMG, if you can buy like, a Feebas from the Magikarp man too...!

It has happened in the anime before!! Well.. sorta. He painted over a Magikarp and called it 'Feebas'.

I'd much prefer that, Milotic is soo much better than Gyarados IMO. Feebas is much harder to find too especially in RSE ;;

The funny thing is that it is the opposite in Unova. Feebas are all over Route 1, while Magikarp are rarer.

 

[Ho-Oh]

Yeah what Vapor said. If it's anything like Unova it'll probably be Magikarp again lmao.

Ooh, they must have made it easier from being near to impossible in Hoenn.

 

[vaporeon7]

I hope they don't include any Pokémon that are as rare as Feebas in Gen III/IV. It took me hours to find Feebas in those gens.

Also 4000th post woot!
