  • I haven't seen the starters final evolutions.
    Can someone post the pictures up please?
    I'm dying of curiosity.

    MEGA SPOILERS IF YOU'RE THAT KIND OF PERSON. Remember, take everything with a grain of salt. This could all be a hoax.

    Yeah I am disappointed HMs will still be in the game, but hopefully they won't give us the wimpy ones like Defog again. And still disappointed that Dunsparce and Farfetch'd still remain single stage Pokemon, not even getting a Mega Evolution as far as I'm concerned. If we can't remove hats as far as the customization is concerned, I guess that means I'll stick with Serena's default design after all.

    And wow Zangoose and Seviper are back, but one is more common than the other depending on version, sorta like the Throh/Sawk example in Black and White. Also, I think there was a rumor that said Electrike and Manectric will be in the Kalos Dex as well.

    Yes, Electrike is there. I'm always curious, why do dunsparce and farfetch'd need evolutions so badly? I've played Pokemon since I was a kid, but just never have bonded with these Pokemon the way everyone else has.

    Dunsparce and Farfetch'd have bad stats, that's why most want them to get an evolution at some point. But yeah, glad to see one of my fave Electric-types will be back because I took a liking to Manectric thanks to my first playthrough of Ruby where I used one.

    Yes that is right.
    I never bonded with those, it's because of their frail stats!
    Take Tangela and Lickitung as example, I never use those two.
    But tried using them in-game when evolutions were introduced.
    Ironic part is Tangela and Lickitung can sort of take hits and battle fully evolved Pokemon,
    while Farfetch'd and Dunsparce couldn't hold themselves when battling NU Pokemon like Lanturn.
    I'm hoping that their Mega forms are undiscovered yet, or I'll be in disappointment if they weren't included.

  • Also, on Tumblr in case if you missed it, Doublade's stats were leaked!

    Spoiler:


    So going by what we're seeing here, it appears to specialize mainly in defense so I'm guessing it's one of those "Mighty Glacier" Pokemon, which has good Attack and Defense but is pretty darn slow. Aside from Speed, it's also lacking in the special-based stats.

    And the pic also revealed some moves it can learn - Night Slash, Autotomize and Shadow Sneak. At least it's got some things it can use to get around that terrible Speed stat.

    Two floating swords, and its best stat is defense. I don't get that.

    So what is the practical possibility of all these starters turning out to be fake?

    Please let Greninja with the tongue scarf be real. It's so hilariously awesome. Dark/Water, please. Best starter in Kalos imo.

    Well it seems 85-90 % of the Pokemon fans on social networking sites have hated the leaked starters and actually want Nintendo to change them. Well. I am actually ok with Fennekin's and Chespin's. So i guess these reactions are a bit over the top.Team "Everstone for Frogadier" though.
