Genetics
Have you all thought that X and Y might be about chromosomes?
If you look at this picture: Spoiler:
You'll see a rainbow chromosome thing there. Do you think there will be clones, like Mewtwo. Genetic modifications like Genesect or more evolutions for eevee's unstable DNA? Also may be worth to note that Ditto copies the opponent's DNA, what if there was some sort of ditto doppelganger or even an evolution for Ditto. Can you imagine some of our favorite pokemon being genetically modified? One thing is pretty certain, there will be some evolutions of previous pokemon. |
I definitely think some of the plot will have to do with genetics, and that's exciting to me! Twas my favorite chapter in science. :)
Mewtwo in mind, I can see that being an available legendary during post-game, if the genetics thing is true. |
Definitely, and I'm quite looking forward to it.
|
I could see that happening. The deer looks like quite a few Pokemon rolled into one...HMMM. I wonder...!
|
This definitely crossed my mind. I wonder if maybe all the new pokemon are genetically modified or.. there is a fight between "natural" pokemon and "modified" pokemon.
I hope they add evos for some pokemon like Quilfish and Dunsparce which are basically never used :c But I really doubt it. This gen looks like all new stuff to me! If they were gonna add evos, they would've done it earlier (like with luvdisc and alohmora or whatever it's called) |
Genetics already taken by Generation 1, although I see no problem if they gonna redo it again. I think it waste though if they gonna redo a theme all over again when there are far more interesting untaken theme around.
|
if theres going to be evolutions of the pokemon we've come to grow and love... PLEASE GIVE A METAL COAT EVOLUTION TO PINSER! ive been dying for one since gen 2 =)
|
Someone suggested to me earlier that these are prequels to Z version, representing all three dimensions. Given the seemingly perpetual 3D hype, I think that's much more likely tbh.

I think this gen has a lot of potential. I'm guessing the evil team will be doing the modifications and maybe we'll see these mutants on Team... Genetic?'s pokémon. Also, wouldn't it be great if this Gen allowed us to clone pokémon without cheat codes? Not easily though, I would hope. But it would be awesome when it came to trading. |

While I do agree that it would be a bit odd to reuse the theme of gen 1 here, the double helix in the Japanese logos seems to be hinting in that direction. And honestly, with such a barebones plot, gen 1 hardly took advantage of its underlying theme--so I wouldn't mind if it was done again with X and Y because now we can really see it being expanded upon! |
Oh wait, didn't see the double DNA helixes in the logos. That's changed my mind a little bit. As long as any attempts at biology in the games are at least somewhat sound then I'm alright with it, in that case! :D
|
Well, you can disagree, but its the truth anyway :bandit:
Gen I limited to that because of short development time, Game Freak first try, and so on. You can't expect it to bee deep, although they've taken genetic subtlety serious at that time. Copy+Pasted from Bulbapedia Quote:
Well Like said I can be wrong, and they can redo the theme if they like despite there are any other theme they can do. We've discussed it here. http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=294310 |

There's no reason why Game Freak couldn't pull off having two themes for the games. The double helix in the logos definitely make me feel they have something to do with genetics though.
|
Just a thought, but if this whole genetics thing turns up to be true, do you think we'll be having a Deoxys event or have one in the post-game to catch? Deoxys is based on DNA, and if X and Y are chromosomes, then...yeah just a thought! Deoxys is one of the most elusive legendaries (it has been for me anyway), so it'd be nice to have the chance to get one this gen.

This is kind of ironic because I'm just starting to learn about genetics in science, but I don't think Pokemon will go to into it because I'm sure little kids will be playing this too. Oh well, it would be fun though. ^^ |

Oh my goodness, what if the storyline touches on the ethical implications of just creating Pokemon willy nilly? Not only is that a big slap in the face to cheaters, but it has the potential to be a really deep storyline that asks all the tough questions that Black and White didn't.
Is it right for humanity to take a process nature does on its own for ourselves? What are the costs of such a venture, both in a monetary and an ecological sense? How far is too far? The best part about this is that there isn't a wrong answer. The answers and reactions each player gets out of these hard questions will be different and deeply personal. Could you imagine the heartbreak someone could receive when the player finds that the evil team has failed in its early genetic experiments and creates a Pokemon that just doesn't survive? The evil team just discards it and lets it suffer and pass alone, but the player finds it and stays with it 'til the end? A bit dark for a Pokemon game, but we've had an evil team kill Pokemon before! And that's such a personal experience that doesn't ask the question, it shoves it down your throat and then forces you to condemn or justify what has been done. Ooooh I can't wait! |
Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised If Pokemon X and Y's theme was genetics. It all ties in with the new genesect movie coming out in Japan later and the Double Helix's kinda ties the knot, for the moment anyway.
