They want us to speculate on Nympeons typing. The main reason I believe it is a Light type is because.of this. If it had been any existing type it would be easily recognizable. If it were a normal type I'm sure it would resemble Eevee more.
|
But a light type doesn't make any sense. The only argument people give is that Dark type needs a counter. What people miss is that it isn't even called "Dark" type in Japanese. It's "Evil" type. This alone ends he discussion for a light type. There is opposite for Evil type. You can say that Every other Type is an Opposite of Evil.

Also, if they Do make a Light type and it signifies kindness, then how can it have any Offensive moves ? Wouldn't it defeat the whole Idea ? |
Hmmm it's a little off the current topic, but it's something I was just thinking about. Given that there's two days until CoroCoro's real release, I kind of doubt we'll hear anything more other than this Eeveelution this month, actually. I expected it to be like a slow leak but there isn't anything yet today which makes me a little curious about this. Maybe we won't get any more major information til next month? Might put it more on-par with B/W's release, at least. ;(

Eh, there really isn't much scans leaked other than a Rumble game for the Wii U and the official declaration of the new pokemon movie. There's two more days for chances for more leaks to be released about new pokemon, in which I'm betting that we'll probably get it on the 15th.
Is it likely? Maybe, maybe not. I'm still hoping for the official art of the protagonist to be released, along with more cities and pokemon. |
I also believe we're done for the month. I don't remember the last time Coro Coro revealed just one random pokemon. But if there were more, we would have had atleast something. Oh well, lets see.

Come on guys, there will NOT be a new type! |

Gamefreak revises all their stuff anyway. Has nobody even noticed that between generations (especially Gen V) moves often get changes or PP/accuracy/base power boosts? Correct me if I'm wrong, but Gamefreak purposefully went through the trouble of allowing more status moves to be reflected my Magic Bounce (or whatever it's called) as well, and that's just one example. If people who take the metagame very seriously do get bugged by this stuff, guess what: nobody is stopping anybody from playing the Gen V metagame! Seriously, there are simulators out there that can do Gen II, people. My message to the metagame, if they really care about this so much (myself, as somebody who very recently started competitive battling again after a long hiatus, not to mention somebody who loves in-game battles, would totally love it) is to get with the program. "Messing up" the metagame, as in adding more twists and ideas, would be a great thing! Things get very, very stale in the video gaming world, when they aren't revolutionized. We would still be playing Gen-I-quality games if Gamefreak never bothered to change anything. I would love to have a new type, but the purpose of this post is not to really start an argument or defend one. I'm not sure if it sounds like it, but I'm not trying to defend a new type or propose it or whatever, but I'm discussing why those aren't really valid points. Consider me playing devil's advocate, or whatever. Rather, I just want to take the time to say that if you have a closed mind (talking to people in general here) about something you have no control over, (unless suddenly everybody here started working on Gamefreak, and I was not informed) you just end up ignoring what could be potentially exciting possibilities. Nobody has the right to just shut down speculation, or reversely declare speculation as fact. I hope this doesn't sound too weird! Basically, in summary while I would love a new type, I don't believe or disbelieve that there will be a new type. Rather, I want to state that anything is possible! And I apologize if it seemed like I was directly attacking your post; I just sort of wanted to rebut it and use it as a platform for my own opinion. (Which isn't even very concrete...) On the subject of Ninfia actually being a new type (because I noticed this has begun to go off-topic...) I honestly don't know, and I don't really care. If it'd be pure Flying type, that'd be cool, but its typing is not my primary concern. What I will say is that I hope it isn't dual-typed. I hope CoroCoro has more information to give us; one new Pokemon and some other information I don't particularly care for doesn't satisfy me. I want to see more Pokemon! I don't care too much for anything else, unless Gamefreak really begins to break the mold and reveal a lot of new, more unique information (another "this game will have eight boring gyms" and I'll be really disappointed). |
Oh honestly. Every 5 minutes this discussion pops up. I could have swore there was already a topic for crazed Light fans to scream about how the type is absolutely definitely going to happen this generation, does it need to infect so many other threads? I hate to be rude but it is incredibly tiresome to see the same people saying the same things over and over again.

Oh, and I wanted to mention, does anybody remember the animated trailer for B2/W2? I'd really love something like that for X and Y; that way, we get a lot of information in terms of setting, story, and mood. (Sort of, at least, in my opinion!) Whereas CoroCoro always seems (again, in my opinion) to leak out the most boring information possible. Not even any interesting gameplay information, or anything. We get new Pokemon, which is cool, but that's about it (and even then, we barely get any information about those Pokemon). |
Right thus far we only know the most things about the starters in their basic forms, the other three new pokemon we only know their height and weight, and that one of them (Ninfia) is an evolution of Eevee.

Or at least from the new Nintendo Direct video? Pyramids would be awesome tbh~ |
Well the building in the trailer sort of reminded me of the Louvre so maybe it's pyramid (it doesn't have an actual name that I know of) will appear too.
Hopefully next issue will show us some scans of the region, and more of the buildings we saw in the trailer. |

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mus%C3%A9e_du_Louvre Even that could be the potential palace instead of the one at Versailles, thanks to the intricate architecture. But yeah, I really want the Nintendo Direct to drop a region name, or at least a region map. Its the one thing that I really want, and it would spark my interest for XY like no other. |

When exactly is the next issue, by the way? I've heard that it was next month, but... |
A return of the battle building in HgSs near Blue's gym will be nice, it could take advantage of the 3DS' streetpass feature.
I don't think Corocoro will show the battle frontier if their's one unless if it's only a small piece like with PWT which showed the small shops and the flags which left some of us guessing what it could possibly be. |
Bring back the Battle Subway, and kill Fly. I found it extremely inane to not only have a Subway system, but a subway system with multiple stops, exist in a game with a much stagnated quick travel. It wouldn't even need to break the game, and could easily explained by having you obtain a boarding pass circa gym 4, with stations in the next cities unreachable due to access barred by gym badges. I understand the battle subway is for fighting, but Anville Town's line suggests otherwise.
Give us the frontier from the start, no 3rd version or sequel excuse should exist this time round. Anything those games would offer could easily come in the form of DLC now, so the Battle Frontier being here should happen. Give it a grand revival, with some more substantial rewards, and perhaps even a more complete feel to it. Have the PWT a facility, but with unlockable tournaments that depend on your beaten facilities. Beat them all? Well here, have a Battle Brain Tournament, complete with all the hax in the world! |
So, I just saw that new Eevee thing, Ninfia, or whatever. Just, no. And this...thing...is supposed to be cute? First of all, Minccino with it's scarves was bad enough, but now we have a pink...thing...covered in ribbons? Why?
I swear though, if this...thing...means that there is going to be a "Light" type, then...just...no. |
Quote:
I think Ninfia's cute, I like it better than Mincinno whom I like as well. |
Looking at Ninfia, I'm gonna say it'll be a Normal/Flying type, instead of being just 1 or the other. There's only 1 pure Flying type Pokemon: Tornadus, which is pretty much the "spirit of the wind". Standard Pokemon are usually judged by the elemental powers first. Since Ninfia doesn't seem to possess elemental features, I think that's a sign of it being Normal. And the ribbons (for the game footage pic in the magazine) apparently move, it might use those to fly.
|
I think Gamefreak showed with 5th gen that the Battle Frontier itself isn't a staple of the series, but a competitive battling facility is. I personally hope to see something in the spirit of the Frontier, but which isn't a clone of the 3rd gen Frontier. Just because people didn't like the Subway much, doesn't mean they shouldn't keep experimenting.
I want to see a facility with the "face" of the new region. Just cloning the Frontier would be wrong IMO. |
