I usually carry myself with no expectations.
I do have wants though! If we're supposed to get something substantial, then I hope it's the reveal of the region and the protagonist artwork along with some new Pokémon. I probably sound like a broken record for having said this so much, but come on now, it only makes sense to release these particular details early on. |
They could potentially be obnoxious and delay revealing the protagonist artwork since the trailers revealed their character models. They might be thinking "That's good enough to hold them over on that for awhile!"
Here's hoping they don't >.> |
If anything, I'd expect midway through summer for a lot of the large news drops to be released, but like everyone else I want them earlier. The lack of information is just as bad as being told everything right away =P
|
The games are still so far away that they're probably only revealing the things they're sure won't change before the release. I think character art would be the most obvious thing to show next.
|
just hoping for character customization and those rollerskates replacing bikes.
|
Character customization would be cool, but Pokemon would never work for it. If the humans were battling, and they were different armors sure, but as a monster RPG and not a Human RPG it just won't happen. Its up there with PokeMMO on the never happening list I'm afraid.
|
Can't wait for the next big leak! The Sylveon leak gave me so much adrenaline just thinking about it lol. I do hope they at least mention character customization and revel the evolution types of the starters. I want to use Fennekin, but I hope it doesn't evolve to Fire/Fight. Also along with Pokemon, I hope we hear more news about combating Pokesav users and the ability for your Pokemon to "bond" with you. Meaning, the more you travel with Pokemon, the stronger it becomes, meaning it isn't just an EV'd mess of a Pokemon.
|
I dont want to see the final designes.I want the shilouetes!(Yeah i am weird)and the typings of the starter evos.

"EVERYONE LOOK OUT, WE GOT A BAD ASS HERE." That'd be awesome if they put feature that in these games! |
Having the held item show up on the Pokémon would be cool, but for some items it'd just look pretty awkward. Plus it would reveal held items in battles to your opponents, so I wouldn't really want that.
|
That and the ability Frisk would be completely useless if they did.
Slight change....Pokemon.com has been under Maintenance for close to 3 hours since I've been checking. Seems like a fairly large update is happening for the site unless they normally take this long. Never seen the site enter maintenance except when they were having issues with the Dream World when B/W came out. Could be something related to X and Y or could be nothing. Though it seems to be quite the coincidence that they have a large update a few days before CoroCoro when this issue is rumored to have a larger content. |
If it's because they're releasing something big I'd be extremely happy. That or maybe they're adding more areas to the website for where the X/Y info will be?
|
It would...personally I'll like it if frisk would work like pickpocket, only without the requirement to be hit by it. Either way it's a hope that's not very likely to happen :(
I do think there's something to this long maintenance...I expect some news to come out later tonight, or early tomorrow. |
It should be nothing special, XY info pops up on the 14th, and did not require maintenance. Not to mention the XY site still works.
http://www.pokemon.com/pokemonxy/en-us |
Well that's mildly disappointing =P If the 14th is when the info will pop up, do you guys think we'll have the leaks either tonight or tomorrow?
|
Anytime between now and then, are fair game at this point. I'd like new info to be revealed tonight, but, I'm also prepared for it to come tomorrow too.
|
Quote:
I hope it shows Sylveon's type, I've grown more curious about it after seeing all the eevelutions together...I'm thinking it's Dragon. |
Quote:
Usually the updates are small so they add them in and then reset the site for viewing. When it goes down that means they are doing larger changes or adding in stuff to be released at a later date. So we don't have a set date for info to be released. It just usually happens before CoroCoro in Japan if CoroCoro is releasing anything big itself. |
If that's the case here's hoping they're setting up updates for when Corocoro is officially released. Doesn't really sound like from what you described that they'd be doing anything else.
|
For some reason I think a dragon type Eeveelution would have skin similar to Duddigon.
|
I'm really eager for this corocoro. On their website they have a video that mentions X and Y, but that doesn't mean much. I couldn't understand what it said, I just saw "X" and "Y" at some point in the video. Hopefully we get something. I just want some sort of new info. About Sylveon, it just doesn't look like a dragon, but it could be any type really. Who knows.
|
Still no CoroCoro leaks; I thought it would arrive after I came back from college. Do the leaks always have to arrive on the 12th rather than being leaked on the 11th once in a while?
|
I still a little early time-wise for them to have leaked over there, so maybe by tomorrow morning we'll see them up!
|
Yeah it'll be in around 12 hours I'd say. Or maybe not. Sylveon got leaked during the day, aka around now so who knows :x

Yesterday was earliest they could appear. Today was day 2. Still 2 more before legal release. So we still have 2 more days for leaks. Pokemon.com finally finished updating and seems like nothing up unless they are doing a delayed revealing. Upload early and then enable for viewing later. |
Actually wouldn't it be 3 days before legal release considering it's coming out on the 15th in Japan? Either way as mentioned by Xander before we'll likely get something from the website one day before. Hope it's large, like the reveal of Gigalith, triple battles, etc. during BW's release. Maybe even the device...however irc devices tend to come out after the regional announcement which we have yet to see. Hope the region is larger than GS Johto and BW Unova.

I'm expecting it probably early morning for the USA on the 13th honestly. Although Sylveon got leaked right about now last issue I doubt it'll happen again that early.
|
I always count the current day, if not than my math on the dates gets all messed up xD
It's possible we may not even get new info according to Aerilyn's post in the new Corocoro trend :( If true than we got to wait another month, or until the site updates. Hopefully if there really is no news in the new one than they'll be kind to update the site with new info sometime during the wait...if not than prepare to talk about Sylveon's type for another whole month... |
To be honest I'm not as disappointed as I thought I'll be after first reading that. I guess one get's used to GF's hype machine afterawhile...
So does anyone think we may get another shiny beasts/Celebi like event in these games like what happened in BW? |
Oh come on! Unnerve Mewtwo?! I know there could and should be more, but just leaking that is mean :( I guessbwe have to wait for the usual leakers to be certain. I guess its a sign though, somebody is getting a forme....

I'm assuming that they've gotten through the entire thing, but I'm really hoping they haven't, I'm jonesing for anything spoiler they can give us.
|
Its like 1 in the morning over there, so any leaks will be much later.
|
Quote:
Its currently 4 am for them so if we get anymore leaks it'll be later tonight if they don't upload them in the morning for them. I can see the leaks if any left coming out in about 7 hours. Anytime before that would be lucky. |
X and Y new form, not B2W2 new form. Cross gen transferring exists.
|
People are still talking about remakes?
I don't think there'll be any remakes whatsoever unless something happens like 6th gen completely blocking compatibility with the older games, or there's a huge change in individual Pokémon code. |
Quote:
|
I really hope we aren't given new forms of legendaries in new generations. They had their time in their own generation, there's no need to rehash them and give them a new form for the sake of doing it. I'd rather have more new legendaries instead of bringing back old favorites.
|
Well when Mew starred in the Lucario movie, it didn't get a new form. I don't see why Mewtwo would get one, it has no more of a reason than Mew did.
|
Except for the fact that movie is subtitled Mewtwo's Awakening, and the trailer finished with we haven't seen the real Mewtwo. Mew didn't have that stuff now did it? Not to mention that would make Mewtwo the most short lived event Pokemon, if it didn't get anything in XY, be it new form or in-game event.
|
Mew also didn't get anything after starring in the movie either, so it wouldn't make sense for Mewtwo to get anything in that sense either. I really hope we don't get another form of it, it's just silly. It's had it's time in the spot light, just let it have the movie and be done.
|
Mew was not distributed on FRLG/E's final legs, it still got usage for a year. Anyone who would bother to get a Pre-Order Mewtwo would more then willingly transfer it immediately to XY after BW/B2W2, and it would be expected to unlock something. It happened with gen 4 to gen 5, and its gonna happen again with gen 5 to gen 6.
|
But once isn't a pattern: It's just one occurrence. Hell I could be very wrong and it COULD unlock something, but I personally don't see it happening. I mean I guess with the whole DNA theme possibility it does relate to Mewtwo's creation in a sense, but who knows.
|
Does Mewtwo even have a chance on making an appearance, or having a reference on X&Y? I've made a thread about Mewtwo here, where people have said that there's a slim chance. Or next to none. So, it'd probably wouldn't get a form either, unless GF made it an event of some kind. But, that's kind of unlikely as well. Maybe it can unlock something if you transfer it to the games, but, right now, the relation between Mewtwo and X&Y seems to be very small.
|
It's really not. Someone pointed out in the Corocoro thread or the Mewtwo thread that the movie is set in Unova, not any new region. It's pretty much the final chapter in the Unova saga.
|
Yes Mewtwo has nothing to do with XY as of right now. Mewtwo is facing off against Genesect. So basically we are getting Rocket vs. Plasma (as both are manipulated by the said teams) like we were prior to the tsunami and the canceled episodes.

Yup, I don't think we're getting any news for the next month or so, unless Nintendo feels like being nice and giving us something instead of going through Corocoro.
|
If Pikachu is given another evolution, I will question their sanity. You cannot mess with Pikachu. Not when he's the primary mascot of the series.
And if Ash's Pikachu one day evolves into this new evo, I daresay it might kill the anime. Cyclone |
Yeah Pikachu getting some sort of another evolution isn't going to happen. It already is a three-staged evolution, it's just not happening. It's just (as Elendil said) the Pikachu 3DS.
|
Better be the US release for the Pikachu 3DS XL. I was pissed when Europe got it an no where else. I want mt Pikachu 3DS XL!
|
I'll buy it if it comes to Australia. I wonder if they'll make starter or legendary based 3DS to go with X/Y.
|
Just to make it known, Mr. XY has officially claimed that all of his rumors were fake
|
No surprise there!
Quote:
I just want the US to get the pure white 3DS. That's all I want really before X/Y comes out. |
It's really not surprising at all, but it at least stops being from claiming that we're getting a Houndoom evolution named Houndoomed. Yeah, that was enough to tell us it was fake.
On the topic of the 3DS itself, I kinda still need to get one period =x I'll have the money from working over the summer to get one though! |
Xerneas and Yveltal 3DS's would match colours somewhat of existing ones, So actually it might happen at some point.
|
I mean with Pokémon more than likely being used to help push the sales of the 3DS that definitely wouldn't be out of the question. I personally wouldn't buy it but it'd be a cool option.
|
I think it'd be a great idea for people when they buy a 3DS for the first time to play X and Y.
|
If they made them look nicer, then sure, I'd love them back. Just don't make them so irritating how you had to take them off when you deposited a Pokémon.
|
I actually brought that up in the Pokéball thread Derk! I would definitely like to see them come back, as it was a little customization that was given to us. It was a shame it got removed.

I'd like a starter trio of Styluses but a Xerneas/Yveltal 3DS is pushing it a little far, they've already got the Pikachu 3DS XL.
|
A White Xerneas XL with blue stylings would tip me over the edge though. So I say bring on the special 3DS' there never can be too many.
|
I'd definitely get a 3DS pokemon promotion if they had one. But... eh, I was betting for styluses and maybe a possible poster of some kind, and maybe some more AR cards. I'm not sure about any other items outside of those; the 3Ds is pretty innovate, and it can probably perform functions that we saw from the pokewalker, or those wireless things we saw from pokemon FR/LG.
|
Speaking of posters, I would love something like the Emerald Pre-order again. You got a Battle Frontier guide, a VIP pass to some online stuff and a poster, all in this amazing little tin box. I was such a happy 12 year old when I got it.
|
I remember here that B2W2 came with some Black or White Kyurem Coin. I hope there is something that makes it worth it though.
|
Honestly, if we were to get something small, the styluses like we got from Diamond and Pearl with the mascot legendaries on the top would be ideal for me. They actually had some use (since they were a stylus), plus they looked pretty cool.
|
Quote:
|
I'd rather be given a poster than a commemorative coin like we got before, since it can actually be displayed instead of a tiny coin that I'd more than likely just lose.
|
What do you think would be on this.. possible poster?
A mini-pokedex showing all of the names of the new pokemon, or maybe the logos, or... |
I could see the poster having an extended box art on it, or maybe the region Pokédex or something. It's still better than that stupid coin =P
|
Guides are much more pointless also, especially with how good sites like Bulbapedia have become.
|
Quote:
Cyclone |
At this point the pre-order stuff isn't even worth it anymore for what it is. Plus, a poster that I can probably find on the internet and print for less than $20 and have all the information the guide provides found on the internet for free sounds better to me anyways =P
|
It's nice if you like having hard copies of stuff that you don't need to rely on the internet to use I guess, but who really doesn't have an internet connection now adays?
|
I don't think it's the Internet as a whole but it's rather that smaller children apparently aren't expected to use the Internet (and I certainly didn't when I was first into Pokemon :x) So I assume the guide book will exist to cater to them, and also be a collectable this generation.
|
My source is mainly Bulbapedia nowadays which is why I never really bother with Guidebooks, it's not worth paying the price when I can specifically find something within seconds via a search engine.
|
Not everyone has access to internet 24/7 or even more than maybe an hour at a time. The Guide books are perfect for those that can't access the internet either due to where they live, or based on life choices.
We take a lot of this for granted. Then there is the possibility that in the future we may not have these sites to assist us. TPC and Gamefreak have put out a Cease and Desist order on fan based Pokemon sites when B/W came out that was backed by the law. They can very well do this again if they feel the need. I get the guide books cause I play at odd hours in the days, and a lot of time I don't have access to the internet or its faster to open the book that turning on my laptop and trying to connect to a site with crappy connections. I dunno what they can give, but its most likely going to be a figurine like for the last sets or go the way of B/W and not have any bonus, but special sales on merchandise. Seriously..B/W came out. Buy one get one 75% off ALL Pokemon merchandise. Then there was a free cleaning kit w/ ReshiZek stylus' at Toys R Us. I was one happy employee XD |
I suppose saying EVERYONE was a bad word choice. The majority of people where the games will be released do usually have access to the internet though daily. Maybe not 24/7, but you can get on at least once a day, whether it be through school, at home, a library, a smart phone, etc. I guess the guidebook hasn't been rendered useless yet, as there probably are people who still use it (as someone pointed out younger kids who might not be allowed to touch the internet), but it's pretty much getting phased out as far as usefulness is.

This is the type of action that could kill a franchise. I had no knowledge of this. That said, if they take out sites like Bulbapedia and Serebii, I will respond by not buying any more of their products. I prefer sharing knowledge rather than buying a possibly incomplete magazine. Sites like Bulbapedia also have a lot more information about individual Pokémon, too. It's a Pokémon encyclopedia, basically. Cyclone |
Quote:
Same thing'll happen if the sites get early copies of X and Y and start posting all the information before release date. Really the only info that sites like Serebii and Bulbapedia have that the guides don't is EV information. Its not in the guides because they are supposed to be secret and the guides give vague hints. I don't remember them giving absolute values, but ya. Bulbapedia also has a ton of speculative information. So even if we lose the sites, we only lose EV information. I use Guides more than Bulbapedia and Serebii, usually cause I find the info I need faster through the guides. Oh right we lose specific details on items, but most of them are in the base description. You really didn't need to know that Magic Guard allows you to bypass Life Orb's 10% HP cost since most people use it on many pokemon that don't have Magic Guard. The basic info still tells you all that you need to know. |

Many stores do not take them in and even report the description of people who try to or actually manage to sell them to them. A lot of sites and site hosts do not allow the discussion or distribution of roms. Even we don't based on actual games. Quote:
Some magazines have started to stop circulation due to new media surfacing and the lack of ability to compete with other competitions. PSM, Nintendo Power, and one of the Xbox magazines fell out due to IGN and Game Informer being web based and paperback for easier access. Some Guide publishing companies went out of business when online sites started posting pictured, in-depth guides online. If TPC feel threatened like they did with the B/W leak (which honestly, that was the worst leak case in Pokemon's history. A member of TPC was fired and imprisoned for releasing images before their scheduled date), they can legally force sites that are distributing their material to go off line and sue both the current host and creator for illegal distribution of copyrighted material. After thinking about it a bit...Maybe this is why the X and Y news is coming out so slowly. GF and TPC worried about the level of information they have come out so they release barely anything just to keep the hook baited. |
I end up memorising most things anyway, so I really don't need a guidebook.
I really hope thy don't have to go through that law enforcement thing again. That was just bad for everyone. |
I don't really mind having to wait a little while for information to come out if I'm still getting it for free. As long as the sites aren't stupid again and get themselves in legal trouble I'll be happy.
