Some of them sound good, I like Alsace.

Sabrewulf238 January 8th, 2013 12:34 PM

It will be called Toogensplockleifladonkafedoratopia.

Seriously how are we supposed to be able to guess? It could be anything.

scprepschool January 8th, 2013 12:43 PM

Helix
Just a shot in the dark.
Although someone on pokejungle claimed that gen 6 was coming
And the region would be shaped like a helix
Colress was returning as an old man, not part of an evil faction
The new region would be his home region yada yada
Experiments with eevees dna to try to find the all type
Plays on a rainbow energy from tcg
During this awakens ancient beings
He/she even said you would be able to customize your character once youve reached a certain join avenue type of area.hmmm far fetched? Yes
Suspicious that he would claim so many things that have to do with dna and the games ending up being called x and y? Also yes
Im not reading into it too much
But it would be cool if it were called helix

Sabrewulf238 January 8th, 2013 12:46 PM

Chances are there will be an o sound in the name though. Since there has been in the last five gens. Also it will likely be either 5 or 6 characters long.

Aside from that I don't see how we can accurately guess the name, only Nintendo/Game Freak knows.

scprepschool January 8th, 2013 12:50 PM

Yea at this point or any point it would be impossible to make a educated guess.
However a little change of the thread title could lead to other dialogue involving speculation

Seth Rollins January 8th, 2013 1:11 PM

Whaaaa, how are we supposed to know??? Well, what about region X for the version X and region Y formthe version Y?! Haha, kidding, it could be anything.

SaniOKh January 8th, 2013 1:15 PM

The region name could be anything, really. Besides, just like Isshu/Unova/Einall/Unys/Unima/Teselia it could have different names in different languages.

What Language is Teslia? Because that sounds awesome

SaniOKh January 8th, 2013 1:17 PM

That would be Spanish :) .

Shubshub January 8th, 2013 1:19 PM

I Wish they had called the Unova, Teselia in english that sounds epic

Brendino January 8th, 2013 1:23 PM

My only guess that's a pure shot in the dark would be Relic. Just like Unova's name seems based off of United States o(v) America, Relic could be based off France's official name: The French Republic.

Shubshub January 8th, 2013 1:25 PM

Maybe Rentree
French Republic

Yuoaman January 8th, 2013 1:27 PM

That's not where Unova, get's its name - the word "nova" is Latin for "new", and Unova was meant to be new as in not connected to the other regions.

True, but at first glance it may not appear that way. Similar to how something like Relic could work as both a shortening of French Republic, and serve as almost an antonym for what the region represents (a relic being the opposite of current and up-to-date).

TaichiWind January 8th, 2013 1:51 PM

Going off Helix, how bout Holyx? You have the O in there for credibility, X and Y for obvious reasons, and in essence it IS Helix.

Lord Varion January 8th, 2013 1:56 PM

Axsin?
Axisy?
I don't know, throwing in the whole Axis theory, Since it's a 3D game, and X and Y are part of the Axis.
So is Z.

scprepschool January 8th, 2013 1:58 PM

I dunno
Forget patterns of O's
I think its safe to say that game freak has no limit to how unpredictable they are these days....
I feel like i dont even know you anymore....teehee
Maybe we could talk more about what we think the region will have along with the name
Because like mentioned above, it is a needle in a sea of hey

I think the x and y are referring to chromosomes

vaporeon7 January 8th, 2013 2:14 PM

I con't even guess ad it could be anything. Probably 5 or 6 letters though.

Princess Diana January 8th, 2013 2:24 PM

Wait, is the region based on France?

Parts of the trailer show france like urban areas. Even the eifel Tower.
So it's speculated that the region is france related or in Europe.

Seeing as though an Eifel tower-esque figure is shown at the beginning and when the protagonist is running from it, we can only assume so.

Gary0ak January 8th, 2013 2:31 PM

The Axisity Region? Lol that was compleatly random

Having that in there will start up all the old Pokemon is a game of the devil... blah blah.... poisoning the minds of our children.... yadda yadda yadda

Like the Axis idea. Perhaps like Axohme region?

Sydian January 8th, 2013 2:39 PM

I didn't know it was based on France! Tres bon! :) My French sucks, sorry.

Anyway, not a French name, but perhaps Genecia? Since X and Y are both chromosomes in genetics, I went for a name with gene in it haha. -cia is just for added pretty flair. It's nice and flowing, like the two legendary mascots. ...They seem flowy and pretty anyway.
