Warship June 11th, 2013 4:45 AM

i will probably get y because i liked yveltal better than xerneas but both of them look pretty cool imo

TheBigMan0706 June 11th, 2013 8:25 AM

Pokemon Y, because X's legendary looks like an ugly hodgepodge of Dialga, Sawsbuck, and the evil Groudon from Jirachi Wishmaker.

Honest June 15th, 2013 11:44 AM

I like both, but since Yveltal caught my eye first, I might get Pokemon Y. That is, if I manage to get a 3DS first. -_-;

Therizinosaurus June 15th, 2013 8:28 PM

im getting y, but only cause i had to decide on the spot when i preordered, and im a dude, so i have a y chromosome, so i picked y.

D Dog master of war June 15th, 2013 8:57 PM

I'm getting X. Because of Xernes.

PsychoticMoonlight June 29th, 2013 1:10 PM

I'm going to get both, but I only pre-ordered Y. I'm getting both because the new legendaries look Hella-freakin awesome! I like the way they actually detailed the new legends. They look exotic. I can't wait till they release the game.

WishCookie June 29th, 2013 1:38 PM

I'll get Y, I mean that Wyvern just looks sick!

Blastin'Tyruntz June 30th, 2013 1:48 AM

Both becaus eif im having trouble in one game i can always transfer pokemon from the other. also i liked Froakie and Chespin so ill get one of them in each game and ive heard one of the 2 rivals is giving you his starter so ill get Fennekin too! TOTAL PACKAGE

Elec.28 June 30th, 2013 10:45 PM

I usually base myself on the legendary of the game. Going with Y for this gen.

Tsutarja July 1st, 2013 3:57 AM

As much as I would love to obtain both X and Y, I'm probably gonna get Y because Yveltal is just plain awesome in design.

Blayze July 6th, 2013 4:36 PM

Both. I've already got them pre-ordered. I've got all the main Pokemon games thus far; why stop now.
As for which I'll play first/more? Probably Y.

tente2 July 6th, 2013 7:18 PM

X. Xerneas is the very first legendary I've ever felt was actually mythical in appearance and aura... Yveltal, like all other legendaries, not so much. But that's just me.

Austin1395 July 6th, 2013 7:54 PM

I'm getting Y because I like Yveltal and, like Chespin, hope that it'll be Dark type.

~Hikozaru~ July 6th, 2013 9:03 PM

There's no way of telling because we don't know what Pokemon are in either of them (by this I mean version only Pokemon), but so far I'm leaning toward Y!

何贤豪 July 7th, 2013 1:40 AM

I'm taking Y, because Yveltal's cool...and I'd like to break my "tradition"...after all this time, I've always taken the first of the duo. (example, taking HG, not SS)

Lacky July 7th, 2013 2:55 AM

I think I'll be getting X, I'm not entirely sure but Xerneas look's awesome. Both Xerneas and Yveltal look awesome but I'm leaning towards X.

X carries Yveltal, Y carries Xearneas. Easy mistake with the colors and all, though. :P

I am so getting X! :D I want Yveltal, not some creepy, fiery/dragon-like city terrorizer. >:c

Why does X have Yveltal?Every Pokemon Game had a cover of the legendary they have after all

I think you're actually mistaking the legendaries, Yveltal is the big dragon-bird, and Xerneas is the deer. So X is for Xerneas and Y is for Yveltal. Thy're on the boxart after all.

That being said, I'm probably getting X, though I'll wait some more to see any other differences between the games.

xGal July 9th, 2013 4:31 AM

I guess I'd go with X. I have a wierd feeling I will like it more than Y.

skyluigi2 July 9th, 2013 11:16 PM

I'm going with X, I've had it pre-ordered since Jaunary...
Usually I end up with the less-popular version, and it seems this time is no exception. ^_^

HaiImNate July 24th, 2013 9:33 PM

Both of course! I'm very excited for both games! :D

Gogofreak August 6th, 2013 11:52 AM

Pokemon X! I like Xerneas better!

Iceshadow3317 August 6th, 2013 12:01 PM

X first. I was originally going to get both, but it will not matter since I will only have 1 3DS. I might still get both in time, but right now only X, because I like the Fairy Legend and I like the X exclusives better than Y.

mason385 August 6th, 2013 12:34 PM

I am going to start off with Y, and i will most likely end up getting x a few months later

Shiny Celebi August 6th, 2013 1:35 PM

Im buying both and probably will pre order them soon. I always buy both versions and have one main game where I store stuff and one to reset over and over. I think X will be my main game as I prefer Xerneas.

Hiatus August 6th, 2013 2:16 PM

I'm definitely getting Pokémon Y. The mascot of this game, Yveltal, looks a lot cooler than Xerneas. I always choose games based on the mascot. Also, in my opinion, the box art of Pokémon Y looks a lot better than Pokémon X.

If I have extra money, then maybe I'll end up with getting Pokémon X too. =)

Water Gym Leader August 6th, 2013 5:43 PM

Both so I can fill the National Dex. I'm the only one in my family and neighborhood who plays Pokemon.

Andrew August 6th, 2013 5:54 PM

I'm getting Y first. I might get X later, but I'm not sure yet. I think Yveltal is the cooler of the two legendaries so that's what I'll start with.

I'd like to get X eventually, but I don't have $80 to spend to get both games when they come out :(

Entermaid August 6th, 2013 7:03 PM

I hope I will be able to pick after the BIG SCOOP!

I am leaning X because of luv me some of that Swirlix. Though I prefer Skrelp from Y over Clauncher from X, I am not jumping out of my seat for either one. Spritzee, Swirlix, and Skrelp evo reveals could be huge game-changers...literally! :p

Shrew August 10th, 2013 9:54 PM

X version. I love how close this poll is! :)

Personofsecrets August 10th, 2013 10:16 PM

both, and that way I can play the game once and have a sealed copy!

swift13 August 10th, 2013 10:39 PM

getting x cos my friend is getting y ;D

Meaii August 10th, 2013 10:48 PM

I am getting Pokèmon Y for two reasons. Firstly, I went to Game last week and the X case looked really nice and secondly, me and my sister always have the opposite games, and she has decided to get Y (since she is younger then me, I let her choose first). :)

Jumpleet August 10th, 2013 11:03 PM

IfI can only get 1, I would get X, because FAIRIES

toxictwinkie August 10th, 2013 11:15 PM

Both. I always need both.

Rodriguezjames55 August 11th, 2013 12:18 AM

pokemon Y I want the death I'm sorry the destruction pokemon #DarkTypeFTW

Grif of Hearts August 11th, 2013 7:26 AM

Since Generation 2 my cousin and I have alternated between the first and second editions of the game.

I had Silver, Ruby, Pearl and Black. Assuming we stick to this tradition I should be getting Y this time, because it's the second edition of this generation.

LolPizzaLol August 11th, 2013 7:51 AM

I think I'm getting X, but I'm not sure yet.

MrGriszell August 11th, 2013 8:01 AM

I always get both I'm not sure why over 70% isn't . Pokemon X will be my main game but I'm obliviously going to need both.

*Icecold* August 11th, 2013 8:35 AM

I only have a limited amount of money so I'm not going to use it buying two of the same game with different Pokemon. If I need the other, I'll just get a ROM or transfer the Y exclusive Pokémon into X.

I'm just going to get Pokémon X. 3ds games are expensive!

Ravenyte August 11th, 2013 9:32 AM

I think I'm going to get X. Swirlix, man, it's so cool. ;~~;

chinchilli August 13th, 2013 12:32 PM

I'm going for X because I prefer the legendary. It looks so elegant and graceful :D Also, I just like the letter X better than the letter Y, for some reason.

FlamingRage August 17th, 2013 5:30 PM

I'm most likely getting Y. I've been wanting a Dark/Flying legendary for some time now.
As soon as the third one is announced I'll get that one too so I can test battle mechanics and whatnot (assuming we get the pokemon Y XL so I can actually play both games at once.)

ImBlue August 17th, 2013 5:38 PM

Clauncher makes this too easy.

Squirrel August 17th, 2013 5:52 PM

Y! Yvetal looks badass and my boyfriend's getting X, so it's a pretty easy choice for me. I honestly don't mind which I end up getting as the version exclusives look great for both, so we've made an agreement to trade over any Pokémon we want from the other versions and it'll all be fine and dandy. Plus have you seen the giant letter 'Y' on the case? Pure badass.

Fernando Torres August 17th, 2013 6:03 PM

Well since I can't really judge the games, il just go for Y simply because the legendary looks cooler in my opinion.

Aeroblast August 17th, 2013 6:28 PM

I'll probably get Y, though it could change when all the details are revealed.

SaniOKh August 17th, 2013 11:05 PM

Well, when I buy a Pokémon game, I always end up buying its counterpart somewhere down the road. So to make things simple, ever since Gen 5, I buy both versions at once. This time will be no exception.

Sneaky Truth August 18th, 2013 1:31 AM

Yveltal seems so badass, but all the artwork, title screens and artistic influence for X looks so breathtaking gorgeous. This is going to be a tough choice but I think I'll go with Y and then buy the third instalment or X2, whatever the next game to come out is.

Mr Cat Dog August 18th, 2013 8:08 AM

Probably X, as I much prefer the design of Xerneas to Yveltal. I won't be getting them on launch, so I'll definitely end up having a look at exclusives and other differences between the games before making my final decision.

Stokesma August 18th, 2013 8:18 AM

I will probably get Pokemon Y based on a pattern I've been following since the days of Gold and Silver.

Gold & Silver - got Gold
Ruby & Sapphite - got Ruby
FireRed & LeafGreen - got LeafGreen
Diamond & Pearl - got Pearl
HeartGold & SoulSilver - got HeartGold
Black & White - got Black

Even though I think Xerneas looks cooler than Yveltal, I'm alright with choosing Y over X.

Lucky1Yena August 18th, 2013 8:22 AM

I think I'll get X. The legendary Pokémon looks cooler.

Gallaceon August 18th, 2013 8:37 AM

I would possibly get the Pokemon Y

Draqonite August 18th, 2013 12:42 PM

Honestly i have to wait for more version exclusives..i was going to get Y but clauncher being a X exclusive has me thinking.

Radiam August 18th, 2013 3:51 PM

I'm thinking that I will get Pokemon Y. I like the legendary mascot of that game better, and I think it will have better exclusives.

BeefTaco August 18th, 2013 4:22 PM

Pokemon X, Ill have to wait a while to play it tho since Im gonna need to borrow my cousin's 3DS and he is getting Pokemon Y.

MarinoKadame August 18th, 2013 5:41 PM

Y because Yveltal and Yvonne.

ShinyPikachu2000 August 18th, 2013 6:21 PM

I would definetly choose Pokemon X because I would often get the first game and my best friend would always get the other one.

atomtanned August 18th, 2013 6:26 PM

I love the look of Xerneas, so I'm getting X. My brother and I always pick opposite versions so that we can trade for exclusives! He got to pick the gen 5 game he wanted, so I got to pick this time around.

Oshamaru August 18th, 2013 6:38 PM

After thinking about it for so long, I'm getting X.
I was waiting until this month's CoroCoro to see if they revealed differences between versions...But no.

Oh, and Swirlix.

.Wolfie-kun. August 20th, 2013 2:20 PM

Haven't truly decided yet but I'm leaning more towards Y, mainly because of Yveltal. But I'll see what the version exclusives are first before I make my decision. Though I do know at least one friend getting Y and a few getting/considering X.

Sirfetch’d August 20th, 2013 4:05 PM

I am still undecided, but I am more than likely getting Y. I like Xerneas more than Yvetal, but I like the version exclusives in Y more @[email protected] In reality I will probably get both, haha.

Hikamaru August 20th, 2013 4:10 PM

I will probably get both versions, but my main version is likely going to be X because it's got Xerneas and Swirlix in it, two Pokemon I have fallen in love with lately. And not to mention first ever Fairy-type version mascot too, and the version is colored blue which is my signature color.

Tyrael August 20th, 2013 4:16 PM

I'm getting both. I really don't see too much of a point in not getting them both, it'll be a very easy way to assure that I can get versions exclusives to complete the Pokedex fairly fast.

ilias_ August 21st, 2013 7:11 AM

I pre-ordered Pokemon X but it was a tough choice. :)

Mana August 21st, 2013 8:14 AM

I'm gonna get X! :D Don't have a 3DS yet though...

Vin_Prismriver August 21st, 2013 8:42 AM

Same ç_ç It's a tough decision really...

Synerjee August 21st, 2013 10:13 AM

Most probably X. I feel more inclined towards Xerneas than Yveltal although both are equally as awesome. My brother chose Y though, so it'll be like getting both of them. If I actually get them, that is.
