I probably won't get my copies until around Christmas at this rate, but at least it'll give me time to learn all the new Pokemon, moves, abilities etc. so I can be fully prepared.
And it doesn't stop there. Sites like Imgur and Tumblr have been surfacing loads of screenshots of in-game footage, hence why we were able to discover a lot of new Pokemon.
You know Joe, it's really surprising that so many copies of X and Y have been preordered even before the games have been released! Talk about a record.
