A Pokemon game with no Water gym leader, E4 member, or Champion has been my dream for quite some time. But eh, I guess I wouldn't mind a Water E4 member since we haven't had one of those (had a Water type Champion, but that's a Champion, not an E4 member).

I'd personally like to see a Pokemon League where everyone (E4 + Champion) pulls a Cynthia and do not specialize in any types. Or they could only have a couple Pokemon of the same type and all the others would have at least one move of that type.

Sir Froakie is impressed.

Didn't we see a Room with Fire pillars ? That kind of confirms a fire E4/Champion.It looked too "majestic" for a Gym.

I wouldn't mind seeing the E4 not have a single type each, but I'd still want their teams to follow a theme. Like if you did the four elements you'd have one with lots of earthy Pokemon: ground, rock and steel types mostly. Water would have of course water and maybe some others related to water. And so on. I'd enjoy that.

I like the idea of them having mixed typing, that would make it easier to include one of each type between four of them.

What I really want to see is someone - gym leader, E4, champion, or whoever - specialize in Rock types and not be the first gym leader.

I'd love it if the E4 had no special types - I'd like the E4 to have dual types too; sort of like in Gen II, where the E4 members... while they had a single-type specialty, they tended to use another type as well.

ie Lorelei had Water + Ice types
Bruno had Rock + Fighting types
Agatha had Ghost + Poision types
and Lance had Dragon + Flying (dragon-esque) types

Well, I dunno, I think that's why I thought the Gen 1's E4 was so challenging at first; since they had that level of diversity compared to the other E4 members (aside from Karen I guess).

Can somebody describe the appearence of the 5 known gen vi Pokémon to me? All I know is fennekin is a fire fox and froakie is some kind of frog. But as I'm blind, that's all I know.

Yveltal is based on some kind of avian, Xerneas is based on some kind of cervid and Chespin is apparently based off a Hedgehog.

I think Yveltal's a wyvern and Xerneas is a chital, actually XD; But yeah, that's about right.

Chespin stands upright and has a brown body with a kind of green hat that includes some leaf-like spikes coming out the top and sides. I'm fairy sure it's supposed to be based on a chestnut so his head is round.

I read somewhere that Chespin's japenese name, Harimaron, is a combination of harinezumi ( that means hedgehog), hari (that means needle), and marron (French for chestnut), so I guess it's a combination of the three~

EDIT: But I got ninja'd xD


Mmm, Chespin is kinda growing on me now; I kinda want to start out with it.

Like I also said earlier, Maron is also a Japanese word for chestnut (but I would guess got it from the French word, since it's in Katakana).

But yeah, it's kind of like a Seedot, but with a rodent form XD;

I just want a dark type gym leader. I'm pretty sure it's the only type we haven't gotten yet, right? I'd also like them to have a Psychic gym, too. But have it as the 2nd or 3rd gym. It could make for quite a challenge.

I don't know who I am either.

If they were to go for the four elements for the Elite Four the Champion would likely be a Psychic type expert to stand in for aether.

A Psychic type Champion would be interesting but it does look like we've got a Psychic type Gym.

On another note, GAME are now taking pre-orders in the UK for Pokemon X & Y here for £34.99.
