Yveltal is so badass, one of the best legendary Pokémon in terms of design.
But I really don't care a lot about Xerneas, is just an adult Bambi. |
I never thought any Pokemon would have a cooler design than my precious Lugia, but Yveltal sure is a damn fine piece of ass.

I love the design for both legendaries honestly. But I must say, I prefer Yveltal.

I already like Xerneas thanks to bloody good artist of Pixiv who draw it as they come out Spoiler:
Sadly there is yet any Yvertal fan art worth mention :( |

I stil wonder what these legends will represent, hopefully we can get some kind of hint from the typing if it's closely linked like how the Weather trio, Palkia (space is often discribed as a ocean), and Giratina (antimatter is invisible and so are ghosts) are with their typings. |
From the pictures so far, Xerneas looks like a Psychic/Steel type while Yveltal looks like a Dark/Flying type or Dark/Dragon type. Either way, there designs look pretty cool.
|
I think Xerneas looks more like a Grass/Psychic, whilst Yveltal does indeed look like a Dark/Flying. As much as I want this to be true, it would mean that Yveltal has a huge type advantage over Xerneas.

Awesome. In-fact, I'm gonna put it in my signature |
@ Archeops: Just use the http://www.pokecommunity.com/images/editor/insertimage.gif (at the top of the posting box) and right click the image you want to add, then copy the "copy image URL" into the thread, for the future!
Also @ Derk, slower weather starter puts up sun, weakens water spout, gg. (actually idk if it can, but ya) Nevertheless, I dunno, I just picture Xerneas as more offensive because it's skinnier and seems more like Virizion, etc. :x Yveltal just reminds me of Mandibuzz, thus defensive comes into mind there. |
Giratina's a Basilisk btw.
If they do a Bug/Dragon I imagine it to look something like Grima from Fire Emblem Awakening, that thing looks quite bug like for a Dragon. Perhaps neither of them will have a type advantage over the other unlike Charzard versus Venusaur (or Blastoise over Charzard), and Kyogre over Groudon. I believe they left it out in Gen IV as neither space or time is better, and same with Yin and Yang which aren't enemies, those being interlinked while the starter mascots had the rivally going on, and water on earth exceeds the land. If that's why than I'll suggest they make them neutral against one another to prevent the unfortunate implication that X chromosome beats Y or vise versa. However if they do, than make X the stronger one...jk. |

Xerneas indeed does have a resemblance to Virzion making you think it would possibly have identical stats to it but Xerneas might be more defensive with it's possibly unique typing.

If Xerneas is Psychic/Steel and Yveltal is Dark/Flying, neither will have a type advantage. Steel has normal effectiveness against Yveltal and psychic has no effect, dark has normal effectiveness against Xerneas and flying is not very effective against it, so they are both balanced out. Bug/Dragon could be a problem though, as flying type moves (Yveltal's type) are super effective against it, whereas bug and dragon do normal damage against Yveltal. Of course, they could balance this out by giving the Bug/Dragon a higher base stat total. I should put up a picture of Grima so you all know what I'm talking about. http://http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130120152503/fireemblem/images/f/fb/Grima1.jpg I should put up a picture of Grima so you all know what I'm talking about. Sorry it's really big!!!!! ;) Zoom out to see the whole pic (control +) Spoiler:

Such a beautiful dragon indeed (no I'm not a Grimleaf...), a Bug/Dragon would give Giratina and Kyurem a run for their money.
You're right about Dragon being weak against Steel...though as you said they could give it a high BST like Rayquaza. |
I'm curious on what types are they, but I also have my own speculation.
As everyone says, I also think that Yveltal would be a Dark-Flying type. And about Xerneas.. Um.. I think it would be a Fighting-Metal Type. And I prefer Xerneas than Yveltal. :D |
I feel like Yveltal might be a Flying/Psychic or Dragon/Psychic just based off of appearances, but it's appearance and color scheme sort of screams those types to me. I honestly have no idea of what types Xerneas might be. I'm not sure if it's just the shadows from the pictures, but it has a Dark-type appearance to it. Maybe dual-typed with Ground, Dark, or Grass?
|
I myself, wanna know what Xerneas and Yveltals abilities are going to be. Do you think Game Freak is just going to give them Pressure, or will they have new custom-fit abilities that match their theming, like what Reshiram and Zekrom got with their Mold Breaker knock off abilities?

Perhaps it'll be Dark/Steel. Yvetal could be Psychic/Fire then. |

Well Rock could work too as those horns look like of rock like to me tbh. Dark/Rock could work. Perhaps both legends will be part Dark. Xerneas Dark/Rock, and Yvetal is Dark/Flying.
