I imagine how big Froakie's final evolution will be, it's second evolution looks like is already about the same size of Toxicroak.

Cerberus87 September 11th, 2013 6:47 AM

Fairy super-effective against Dark... I hate it even more now. Tyranitar to UU, it seems. One more weakness... Time to give Houndoom Sludge Bomb, too.

The new chart means the only Pokémon without weakness now is the Tynamo line.

Garchomp's Mega Evo looks ugly. On the other hand, I decided to buy X since the Mega Mewtwo form looks better and seems better as well with its new typing. Y buyers can keep their spermatozoa-looking Mewtwo.

I'm SO not choosing Chespin after the revealed evo info! What an ugly little thing. Fennekin's evo looks the best.

Helios93 September 11th, 2013 6:48 AM

It's sad when my favorite dark type is now weak to fairy type. :-( Poor Yvetal.....

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire September 11th, 2013 6:51 AM

I feel like Chespin's design was rather lazy...not much changed but making it chubbier and making it's underbelly brown...

kenzen September 11th, 2013 6:52 AM

I think the twid in the fennekin evolution, might just be a divining rod, you know how people will at times use a y shaped stick to find stuff, just a hypothesis. deffinatly going with fenniken on both games, but frokie actually looks cool. but as long as the fire looks cool I'm going fire

Fennekin = Looks very elegant, quite happy with how it's turned out so far and I'm glad it's not Fire/Fighting... yet.
Froakie = I really like it tbh, this changes my opinion on Froakie a lot now.
Chespin = Strange yet cute.

Well, I think this sort of counts as evidence that Fennekin is following in the tradition of Empoleon and Serperior to be the "French" Pokémon of this generation. Someone said before that Fennekin could be based off Marie Antoinette, which, right now, wouldn't be too wild of a jump. Anyway, I like it. Looks a little weird, but cool.

And I also like Chespin's evolution. It looks a bit weird, but that's a good thing. It looks more like a chestnut, and is probably gonna evolve into something good.

Anyway, the middle stages of the starters always look a bit weird. Wartortle, Croconaw, Combusken, Monferno, and Grotle are no less weird than these guys here. The middle stage of the starters is almost like their version of being gawky adolescents.

Squirrel September 11th, 2013 6:55 AM

Chespin's evo looks like a messed up Pignite which is a huge shame; I was expecting great things from that line. Fennekin's evo looks like a prettier and more badass version of Lucario which I'm adoring and it seems to hint well at a Fire/Psychic-combination so I'm looking forward to using that line a lot more than I was previously. And Froakie's evolution? Pure badass. I love his evolution and it looks like a perfect Pokémon to train. This update has completely changed my mind on which starters are the best haha. Let's just wait for the final evos!

Unsolicited advice: doesn't getting the same starter over again make the game a bit...monotonous? I mean, you'll have already beaten the game with Fennekin once, which means you'll kind of know how to do it in the next game. Doesn't that sort of...take away the challenge a bit? If you think Froakie's evo looks cool, then get Froakie the second time around.

classiccartoonsftw September 11th, 2013 6:56 AM

Finally, we have the starter evolutions! I like them all, but Chespin's is my least favourite.

I also really like the fossil Pokemon. Chigorasu reminds me of the Cranidos line, and Amarasu has a pretty cool ability. Ice-type Return/Frustration, anyone?

Torimian blew my mind. At first I thought it was MegaAbsol, then I thought it was a llama, and now you can give it haircuts! I hope we can give haircuts to more Pokemon, like Jynx.

Nyaonikusu is another Pokemon that blew my mind. Its gender not only decides its design and color, but also its stats and movepool? We haven't had such a Pokemon since Gen 1.

Also, Mega Mewtwo X and MegaGarchomp? Really, Game Freak?

The new typing also puts a big dent in Hydreigon. Dragon/Dark makes it have a x4 weakness to fairy types. I wonder where he will be going competitively with that in mind.

With the starters I like Froakie's midevolution the best. Which is great because I was going to choose him as my starter and this definitely doesn't change it want me to not use him like it did Tepig (in which the final starters didn't help with that sooo). Fennekin's is pretty alright and original to say the least. If it wasn't bipedal it might have gotten some 'i looks a lot like Ninetales' sort of thing so this is cool. I just laugh at Chespin's because it's like it ate a balloon and just look at its expression. Not saying I dislike it but looking at it is hilarious.

Not too fond of the new megas. MegaMewtwo is alright but MegaGarchomp did the thing really need one? It's over there with Lucario on my list of 'unnecessary'.

Entermaid September 11th, 2013 6:58 AM

Torimian-10
All I have to say is, customizable poodle pokemon!
I love that pokemon. It's ability, fur coat, is my style for sure!
What ever will my Swirlix evolve into though?

Hariboogu-3 - Teerunaa-9.5- Gekogashira-8
I actually love Froakie and Fennekin evolutions...though, Chespin...
Maybe it's intermediary stage is supposed to be awkward looking before a metamorphosis like Swadloon, Gloom, ect. Though, I am also getting Pignite vibes. Sadly, I will have to go with Fennekin, Chespin. Fennekin resembles some sort of spellcaster/mage, with a robe/dress...it's tail either appears like a wand and/or broomstick (though this is tastefully subtle). If you haven't noticed, Froakie's white bubble neck tufts extends like a chain on his back, which could more than likely be ninja-related. I like the overall feel of his design.

Chigorasu- 8.5 and Amarusu - 6
The fossils pokemon are cute. The T-rex is just perfect. It looks like everything I wanted Cranidos to be! The ice/rock pokemon is great up until the face. The diamond in it's back and color palette and body shape are done nicely. The face shape and yellow head tassels, I am not completely sold on, but I still like this pokemon.

Nyaonikusu - 8
I am ecstatic about some more significant gender differences regarding Meowstick, presumably. I like how these are not blatantly obvious. To be honest, I don't know which one I like more! Though, at the same time, I am not jumping up and down for these guys.

Mega Mewtwo-3 and Mega Garchomp-8.5
Umm...I am not digging MegaMewtwo at all. It's so gauche with frog legs and weird veiny gill-like embellishments. The only thing I like are the shoulder pads. Mega Garchomp is crazy good. The teeth mark design along it's torso is perfect. The more pominent jaw and impressive tail makes Garchomp look even more intimidating. I am so-so on the scythes.

If Chespin is based off the Chestnut flower (the "hat") and it's middle evolution is a Chestnut maybe it's final evolution will be inspired off the Chestnut tree, or at least it's MegaEvolution (if it has one).

Belldandy September 11th, 2013 7:02 AM

All of the starter evolutions are ugh. Chespin's is too bulky - I get the nut reference, but esp. its nose. Ew - while Fennekin's looks like some weird llama mix :\ Froakie's isn't too bad, but it still looks a bit awkward to me.

I love Espurr and Meowstick, though. Kitties are always a good addition lol

Palkia September 11th, 2013 7:03 AM

The chespin evo reminds me of Ludicolo, which is anything but a bad thing.

The fennekin evo is pretty dang awful, but the furry community will lap if up. Good for them.

The froakie evo is very nice and pretty much confirms my usage of them.

The fox pokemon looks really bad and the fossil pokémon are kind of boring (rock/dragon is a sweet typing though). Mega Garchomp looks like a derpy overdesigned piece of crap but the Mega Mewtwo X looks really quite nice and better than the devolution that was the other Mega Mewtwo.

But why are they weird? What's so weird about Grotle, or Croconaw? Actually what's weird about Chespin's evo? What's wrong with fat? It's cute.

The best video game character of all time is fat, you know. (Although he is muscular instead depending on the games...Chespin's evo confirmed to be muscular in one of the versions.)

BluuArrowz September 11th, 2013 7:08 AM

I love Chespins evo... It basically became what they did in D/P. Grotile Grass and Ground becoming and tank and sort of effective over the other two. Plus chespin is the tank. Its been a while since a grass start has tanked. I mean snivy was tanky as heck for some reason.

i think its going to become more hedgehog like (possibly quadruped like a hedgehog)

and if the moves are an indication of what the second types will be the green shell might turn yellowy brown to represent his ground type and it'll get spikes and his underside might be like the actual chestnut

Spinosaurus September 11th, 2013 7:14 AM

Also guys Grotle being a bit fat didn't stop Turtwig from turning into this majestic son of a world turtle:
http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/3/3a/Spr_4d_389.png
If Torterra is anything to go by (being the best starter and all) Chespin's final evo probably has a chance to become the best starter of all time™


...Nah, Froakie is superior and his evo will be superior.

I will be playing both versions. not one after the other but in turn back and forth about even

Entermaid September 11th, 2013 7:21 AM

To be fair, Grotle wasn't shaped like a balloon. Or have crazy eyes.

But neither does Chespin's evo. In fact when I saw him I thought of Woodman. http://images.wikia.com/megaman/images/f/fa/Woodsprite_ww.png Anything that reminds me of Megaman 2 is awesome as hell to me.

There is a possibility that it could evolve into a Sumo wrestler, guys. You should think of that. It'd be too good.

Spoiler:
I'd rather a boxer.

swift13 September 11th, 2013 7:30 AM

i think i'll choose chespin just bc it's gonna be underused and i wanna know what the final evo will look like

If it's a sumo or a boxer it better be part fighting type.
Lol nice reference right there, after all Chespin is part grass...maybe Gf did it on purpose...

Crunch Punch September 11th, 2013 7:42 AM

Aaaargh. I don't really like the look of Chespin's evo... reminds me too much of Pignite, and I'm not the biggest fan of Tepig's line :C hopefully it's final evolution looks a bit better.

Fennekin's evo was not expected at all ahaha! It does look good though, and I like the skirt-like fur on it's waist!

I wasn't a fan of Froakie at first but looking at it's evo... I might be leaning there right now. It just looks like a badass no doubt.

They seriously ruined Chespin for me :c

jellotime91 September 11th, 2013 7:45 AM

It's gonna be rough using Fenny until it's final stage... It seems like all the good moves it gets are Psychic type, and it won't get STAB for those. Really freaking blows.

BTW is it confirmed that the starters all have elemental moves at lv 5? Cause that will make the first battle basically impossible to win.

Meganium September 11th, 2013 7:54 AM

Well, THANK goodness for new updates & stuff. I've been waiting for starter evos for MONTHS now.

I'm sorry. Imma jump on the bandwagon for Chespin's first evo because..well yeah, it's Pignite in a grass-type. I can't imagine its second evo. As much as I wanted to use Chespin as my starter, Fennekin won my heart once again and I might as well use it because its first evo is just simply amazing and I love the design of it!

& now I know that I'll be getting Pokemon X because of Mewtwo X. SO MUCH BETTER than the prev. megaevolution. :D

Spinosaurus September 11th, 2013 8:12 AM

Jesus guy it's another Pignite because it's "fat"? :/

Is Charizard a Pignite too?

SnowpointQuincy September 11th, 2013 8:14 AM

WHAT HAPPEND TO STEEL! Doesn't resist Ghost and Dark anymore! To be honest, it's still a fair change. Steel still resists 10~ of the 18 types.

TEAM CHESPIN!! IT'S STILL GOOD, it's just a little husky, IT'S STILL GOOD!

Dillon_68 September 11th, 2013 8:17 AM

Sticking with Chespin til the end, I like the 2nd form.

latioslegends September 11th, 2013 8:18 AM

Not sure if it's just me, but that Chespin is the happiest volleyball I've seen in my life.... hopefully he seems more practical in his final evolution. =/

Got to love how they gave Froakie the poison dart frog appeal, and Fennekin looks deviously elegant! I do wish though it would have earned a psychic as a second type.

Still, awesome update! The new dino pokes, and Mewtwo, look like they be great to have on a team. =]

Last Entei September 11th, 2013 8:20 AM

Fennikens second evo looks cool apart from the stick hanging from its back side xD

It's great to see there's people who like it. I'm getting used to Chespin. I'm sure it'll evolve into something cool looking just like Seedot's line did. Ironically it's rumored that Chespin will be Grass/Dark...just like Shifty...

SnowpointQuincy September 11th, 2013 8:33 AM

People that don't like Chespin don't like happiness. Just look at the little guy.

Love the Ice Skin ability! Normal Attacks are Ice Type.

The Ice Dino's face looks to round - like it is incomplete somehow....


Fennekin must not be Fighting Type

Livewire September 11th, 2013 8:38 AM

Rock/Dragon & Rock/Ice Dinosaur Pokemon.

My prayers have been answered.


But Jesus Christ Gamefreak, is a quadruped Fire Starter too much to ask for? Out of the three Evolutions, I think Froakie's is the best, then Chespin's right behind it.

Yup, it was about time.
Maybe it'll get back on it's four legs upon evolution...however I'm doubting it if the theory of it being based off a witch is true...

It does look very simple...but then again haven't people been complaining about over complicated Pokemon for the past two generations? (if not three)

Good find! I never spotted that. A Steel resisting Ghost type moves is too silly in my opinion, although I'm still not sure why Psychic moves are still resisted.

As for new Pokemon, I was right in speculating a Rock/Dragon Fossil Pokemon! I guess it was around just after Arceus created the Pokemon World, maybe it was the first ever Fossil Pokemon?

Dinosaurs aren't the oldest creatures, especially the T-Rex so I really doubt they'll make it one of the first ever fossil Pokemon.

RedJ September 11th, 2013 8:46 AM

Fennekin's evolution isn't part Fighting. Good. Although there's still the final evolution... >_> Still leaning towards Froakie, and I don't really mind Chespin's evolution.

...and joy of joys, they gave Garchomp a Mega evolution. Because the thing wasn't enough of a pain as it was.

atomtanned September 11th, 2013 8:49 AM

Wow, so much new info! I can't WAIT for these games... only a month to go...

My thoughts on these:
  • I'm not a huge fan of the new Mewtwo mega evo… I don't know. It's so bulky, and the feet kind of creep me out a bit? I was hoping it was the version Y exclusive, since I'm getting X. Oh well.
  • I think the new Pokemon look great! That ice fossil Pokemon is the cutest. I love that you can change the poodle's hairstyles!
  • Not super impressed with the starter evos, but as people have said, they are the middle stages, and so they could look totally different by the end. I almost always pick a fire-type starter, and I'm pretty bummed on Fennekin's evo. Why does it have to stand up? Why is it single type still? What is with that stick in its tail? Froakie's looks pretty cool, though, and I actually think Chespin's is really cute...
  • YES to character customization!

Yes and now it's ability powers up Rock, Steel, and Ground moves by 30 percent (it has Sand Force) so that adds to the pain...
I can't wait for the official site to update so we can get a clue as to which stats will be raised...I have a feeling it'll be attack and speed.

Game Freak knows it be trollin. Let's take a pokemon that kills everything with one hit, mega-evolve it, then add 30% to his STAB attack!!!

I bet Mega Salamence will have Moxie and become faster and bulkier...MegaDragonite will proably have Multiscale and like wise become faster and gain more special attack which will make it a mix sweeper.

I.T. September 11th, 2013 9:11 AM

Chespin's evolution is a JOKE! Hahaha! Chespin is taking the Tepig route with this 1st stage evolution form reveal. I knew all along Froakie would be the one to benefit the most from evolving (design wise). Also Mega Mewtwo X looks so bad ass! I'm even considering canceling my pre-order for Y version and pre-order X version instead just because of it.

Well to be fair it cant use Choice Scarf if you choose to mega evolve it and Dragons overall have been nerfed this gen, so while I agree that this pokemon really didn't need a power up it still has its limitations. Also if it gets too powerful, to Ubers it goes.

It's also possible it could've gained a boost in speed meaning it wouldn't need the Choice scarf, plus it won't be limited to a certain move anymore...but yeah to Ubers it goes.

Yeah I suppose that is a possibility. That is one thing that I didn't understand about this Mega Evolution reveal, why not tell us what stats get boosted if its just 2 new Megas? I would have appreciated to know more about this new Mewtwo Mega Evolution.

They proably either plan to reveal more in the official site or they want us to discover on our own...

You know since Mewtwo has two forms and one wasn't featured in the film...it makes one wonder if perhaps there might be another Eeveelution which wasn't featured in the short.

Also, Steel loses its resistances to Ghost and Dark? This makes Bronzong, Jirachi, and Metagross cry... Why didn't they give new resistances to the Ice type instead?

I agree with you only on the Dragon part. This is the dumbest mistake that I hope gets rectoned later down the line, but I'll deal with it because thanks to this Fairy Types have a really good chance of being pathetically weak.

Gardevoir is now weak to an element she has always been strong against and even more weak to an Element she was never very good against.

Marill can be taken out by the most common Water Pokemon Tentacool.

I don't understand the reasoning of removing Dark and Ghost from Steel's list. That means Pokemon like Spiritomb and Sableye have more attack targets, not that it really bothers a Mawile, though x4 Resistance would have been more in her favor.


As for Fire being resistant to Fairy, Fire is a "Pure" untaintanble element. One in old stories that was used to commonly dispel the magic of the more evil fairies. Even those fairies could not wield true fire.


Moving to the Pokemon:

The Alpaca is a poodle. OMG CUSTOMIZATION! SO CUTE! I wonder if I can give it a Pompadour XD Going to have fun with it...also called the Normal typing.

The cats...I dunno. I was expecting something else. Doesn't look like the Meowstick rumors went through all the way.

Starters: OMG CHESPIN IS SO ****IN ADORABLE! Froakie looks badass. Fennekin....eh...Magical girl? Looks really stupid. Quadruped into Biped. Looks like her final form is going to stand up right. Really like how they are still pure...Kinda wonder if they'll stay pure all the way through. Chespin's uses a Ground attack, so part ground again maybe....Or Rock since Rock types can still learn Ground attacks....(Don't want Ground since it appears Froakie may go flying based on move types and they wouldn't add an immunity to the starter sets), Froakie seems to be going Flying since they are still emphasising Bounce...though the move doesn't have much to do with flying and it mostly physical relation...hope it stays pure now. Fennekin, still supporting the psychic and looks like a rejected magical girl. Nthx.


The baby Trex is sooooo coool O= The little Ice Brachiosaur is cute. I love its ability. I have a similar ability on a Fakemon I made a while back.

That Brachi will be more of a worry for Dragons than Fairies....Ice typed Hyperbeam...Ice typed Giga Impact. Scary.

Mega Garchomp scared me. TTwTT

Mega Mewtwo X is pure idiocy. They should go and remake the movie to fit in both versions properly into it.


Reposting what I posted in the Fairy type thread cause I thought it was this thread.

How funny will it be if it did Mega Evolve into a Megaman like Pokemon...Mega(whatever it's final evolution's name is)man!

MrGriszell September 11th, 2013 9:48 AM

Im loving mewtwo x. Something tells me if a third game comes out its gonna have another form. Kinda like a new dexoys. it looks freaking awesome cant wait to use it.

chespins evo is amazing i may end up using it as my starter in Y.

The fire..... well sure why not

Froakie ......well i like it lets see where the next stage takes us

the new pokemon are great.

I love the new type chart i think it will make for a fun metagame

You know since Mewtwo has two forms and one wasn't featured in the film...it makes one wonder if perhaps there might be another Eeveelution which wasn't featured in the short.

I don't know. I cant find a valid reason for there to be another Eveelution. For these 2 Mega Mewtwo it has to do with a Mewtwonite X and a Mewtwonite Y or so I think, I'm not really sure I will have to check. With Sylveon it was about the new Fairy type so what do you pair Sylveon with so that the other Eveelution doesn't get overshadowed by the Eveelution with the fresh new type? Thats basically my main concern with adding a new Eveelution, any type you choose wouldn't feel as relevant as Fairy Type.

You could argue that Espeon was paired up with a new type as well, but that generation revealed multiple new types and Umbreon didn't really represent Dark type, it represented along side with Espeon the new game mechanic of Day and Night so they where equal in that sense.

It can be paired with the Dragon type which is another type based of mythical creature. Interestingly Dragon was the nerfed type and Fairy was the nerfer.

to be honest i think their will be another eeveeloution either dragon to be weak against fairy or metal to be strong against

Drunken Shinobi September 11th, 2013 9:59 AM

the fighter mewtwo is for pokemon y and the one from the movie will be for x?

Nope. The new Mewtwo will be in X and the other Mewtwo will be in Y. Their names are Mega Mewtwo X and Mega Mewtwo Y ;)

A) I said I liked Chespin's evo. So, we're in agreement over that.

B) Yes. Croconaw and Grotle are weird. Croconaw looks like a weird mix between a dinosaur, crocodile, and a caveman. Grotle has that weird, gawky body and that clashing color scheme. Wartortle is basically a Squirtle with war paint and weird tufts of hair sticking out. However, like I said, even though they're gawky and weird in their middle stages, they evolve into awesome Pokémon.

SnowpointQuincy September 11th, 2013 10:32 AM

The Poodle Pokemon was predicted in the Get-together this year! Someone made a "Fashound" which was poodle.

pokerex September 11th, 2013 10:32 AM

I just came back from college and then this happend. My first opinion is pretty positive.

Froakie's evolution looks kinda like i expected. I don't like the fact that fennekin's evolution stands on two feet, but that doesn't matter all that much because mega Charizard and mega Blaziken are in the game so nobody was gonna choose Fennekin anyways.
As for chespin's evo, i love it, it looks really funny.

I like this new mega mewtwo better than the last one. so i'm happy that i pre-ordered X.

As for the new typechart, i like what they did with fairy, it looks like it's going to be a strong type.
But what the hell did they do to steel? Gamefreak is dropping steel-type like skrillex drops the base.

Pochama95 September 11th, 2013 10:42 AM

I'll keep this as simple as I can

-WHY??!!!! is Mega Mewtwo X in version X? He looks so badass but I want the Y legendary route.
-MegaGarchomp is actually good unlike everyone else but Blaziken, Mewtwo X, Mawile and Blastiose.
-Still liking Froakie's design and evolution chain.
-Yes a Fire/Psychic starter possibility about time I've been waiting since Hoenn for one.
-Chespin got better but is still a joke.
-Still mad about what they did to Charizard, Venasuar, and the othe Megas. They're all unnessary except for those mentioned above.

JayTheKing September 11th, 2013 10:45 AM

When will the site update?!I really want to have a better look on chespin's evo!

JP September 11th, 2013 10:47 AM

I'm hoping the rest of the starters from previous generations get mega-evolutions. It would seem rather odd for only Blaziken and the first generation starters to get them.

On the 14th as that's when the site usually updates (the day before the official release date of Corocoro which this month falls on the 15th.)

Cameo September 11th, 2013 11:02 AM

Just out of curiousity, did anyone pay attention to those Flabébé pictures in this CoroCoro issue?

If you look carefully at the page where's that T-Rex and long necked dinosaurus, you can see a picture of Flabébé in the right lower corner.

According to this image there should be atleast three (or four, hard to say is the first flower red or pink) different coloured flowers to ride with. :P As it seems they are pink (and possibly also red), blue and yellow.

Supposedly there is supposed to be a Z in Froakie's evo, but I don't see it.

Xaldin September 11th, 2013 11:07 AM

As long as it isn't another Fire/Fighting Type,I'm ok with Fennekin. the evo is looking good to me,but i'm waiting on dat final evo! :3

I was going to point this out but the site crashed...and I forgot to do so afterwards ;-;
But yeah they look like the letters Y and X. The Z is formed by it's head and right hand of Froakie I think.
Edit: ! If Froakie were facing to the right it's snout and eyelids will form a Z.

If it hasn't been mentioned yet, it looks like it's supposed to be like a broom handle, with its tail being the sweepy part of the broom, so... a witch motif!

Oshamaru September 11th, 2013 11:13 AM

...
...
What...
What did they do to Chespin? WHY?
Oh well, as long as it changes the shape on its final evo, I'm...ok...with it.
Fennekin's evo doesn't look so bad...But I feel that it would be better if it could have stayed on all fours. Froakie's looks great, really cool.

Eh, that fluffy thing didn't look much like a dog to me, but I like it. It's nice to see they're letting us customize in this game a lot. I really like the fossil Pokemon...I like the T-rex, and the ice dinosaur. Dang it, I want both. :I
I love Espurr's(?) concept. I'll probably catch Male and Female and have them together.

Mega Garchomp looks too...strange. They could have changed it more aside having more spikes and the awkard chin. I really like Mega Mewtwo X. In my opinion, it looks way better than the version we saw before. (But those feet...)

Ahhh, so much to draw...But they're probably going to reveal them properly in 2 days...
Hehe, we got some great news before we get the games. Really looking forward to it!

Thanks but someone already pointed that one. After seeing the actual picture I figured it was some wand or Divining rod of some kind.

Thanks for that. I was still going to go with Fennekin even with the other Fire starters available. Hopefully the final evolution looks better but I doubt it. At this point seeing those evolutions I'll be going with Froakie. I tend to go off looks a lot when choosing a new starter in a new generation.

Yeah, they sure are :3
The poodle seems to be this generations gimick Pokemon. However I'll like to see it evolve like how Sawbuck did despite being the seasonal gimick Pokemon of Gen V.

Oshamaru September 11th, 2013 11:25 AM

I think I noticed a mistake. It says that the new Mega Mewtwo is exclusive to Y. It's the other way around.

Speaking of Chespin, WTF. :8: The swimsuit seems to be devouring him...
At first I thought of stupid Pignite, but then someone mentioned it looks like a Piñ„„„„„„„„ata, I love the evo now... :)
You'll grow to like it people!

Also I'm placing my bets on Froakie being Water/Flying. (I could be wrong though, I'm human after all) ;)

Mr. X September 11th, 2013 11:32 AM

Chespins moveset

Rollout, Bounce, Defense Curl, and... um... some other move.

There is a Y shaped thing on the back of chespins evo.
And Fennekins evo has an X shaped body(from hips to ears).

@ Mr. X it also knows Mud shot

Azire September 11th, 2013 11:34 AM

I'm actually quite pleased with my Y pre-order. I got scared when everybody was talking about how awesome Mewtwo X was but I much prefer Mewtwo Y. Keeping my pre-order.

That works too...just how Xerneas X can be seen from it's horns to chest, or it's horns to it's legs...

@ iAzire I too perfer Mewtwo Y...Mewtwo X is my least favorite Mega...it's legs too weird...

I'm glad to get all this information, but does ANYONE who gets CoroCoro know how to use a freaking scanner? Or maybe a shot without intense glare?!

tnfsf11 September 11th, 2013 11:39 AM

Guys, the new Mewtwo forme is for X, the forme that we've already seen is for Y. -Source-
Also it doesn't make sense, both X AND Y demos had the Y forme, so either this leak is fake or the demo was a joke.

All my NOPE for both Mewtwos btw :)

MarinoKadame September 11th, 2013 11:53 AM

I guess you can get both Mewtwonite, but you need to get the X or Y from the version it come from to have Mega Mewtwo X on Y I guess.

EDIT: If the Apatosaurus evolved into a Argentinosaurus, then I can forgive the whole weird animal winking thing. Forget Wailord, how about largest dinosaur, which is actually bigger than a blue whale if I remember right?

Similarly, if not a T-Rex, the theropod Pokemon should turn into a Giganotosaurus!

It's not winking if you look closely its eye is open just its head was drawn weirdly in that picture. And those cat pokemon are better than some of the previous ones such as glameow for example...

jfuze174 September 11th, 2013 11:57 AM

Mewtwos second evol is a bit overboard but I'm guessing me must be part of the story somehow it's starting too look like chespen will be grass/ground
Fennekin will be fire / psychic and for some reason I see frokie staying a pure water but having alot of fighting moves so far i am liking this pokedex though XY is going to be awesome

Spinosaurus September 11th, 2013 11:57 AM

Guys just because they have different typed moves doesn't mean they'll evolve with those as secondary types.

Chespin's evo has mud shot because it's possibly based on a football. When you kick a football in the start of a game, you kick it at the bottom to ensure it's kicked high. That results in the kick hitting the ground thus dirt is "shot".

Froakie has Bounce because...well, self-explanatory. Ribbit.

Dunno about Fennekin.

TreeKangaroo September 11th, 2013 11:58 AM

I want to see how the cute 100 stat legendary looks out.
