I don't think we'll get another Multitype gym this generation (Blue's the only one we've seen).

Definitely, Blue needs to keep his unique status as only multityped Gym Leader.

Although I am hoping we get a Dark-type Gym finally. With Korrina, Maylene is no longer the sole female Fighting-type Gym Leader. Both their Sugimori art also depict them kicking, which is some fun coincidence.

More Fighting Gym leaders!
I hope we get Dark and Fairy-typed gym leaders.

Yeah, but Game Freak please break the Dark-type Gym drought. We already had three Dark-type Elite Four members but no Gym Leaders. A Fairy-type Gym would be a great way to learn about the type itself and I remember when a rumor claimed a possible Gym lineup but it was probably fake because Korrina nor a Fighting Gym Leader wasn't mentioned.

And while Dedenne looks like Raichu in some way, it's based on a hamster which I don't believe we have seen a Pokemon based on it yet, now only if they made a dolphin Pokemon. Although the name looks pretty hard to say, I might say it as "dee-den" for now until I hear the official pronunciation.

Also, Skiddo is confirmed to get Sap Sipper as an ability so I'm betting Gogoat will get that ability too. In the trailer, Skiddo was seen using a Grass attack which looks a lot like Leaf Blade to me.
Nice combination; a normal/ground cartoon rabbit, I think probabilities are higher for it's evolution to be that type combination. Also the pokemon that looks like raichu looks a lot like a hamster to me too and also would like a dolphin pokemon in the series too.

So it looks like we have Bug, Rock, Fighting, Electric or the marginal possibility of Steel for gym types.
I also like the idea of a female fighting gym leader.

I don't know if they are going to make a fairy gym or a fairy elite four/champion, but would be interesting; of course, pokemon for being in elite four/champion must be really strong and difficult to defeat, I hope at least some of the new fairy types are strong enough to the level of those dragon types.

MegaMawile sounds like a force to be reckoned with. If a normal Mawile had Huge power it's attack stat would max out at 590. Now consider that MegaMawile will have higher stats...one of which could be it's attack...and also remember that Mawile can learn a priority move...

Don't lie and try to save face. These Mega Pokemon are totally a Digimon copy lol..

Anyway, I'm sure Korrina is a Fighting type leader. Her Gym Badge is a boxing glove.

Can it really be a copy when the thing copied was already a copy of what was copying them?

(I'mnotseriousdon'tyouguysfrakinstart!)

Are we sure its a Badge? I won't doubt she'd be fighting type since she's in Roller Derby gear and that is a brutal sport.

Thank goodness you put that disclaimer or you'll have baited those digimon fans amongst us...

I hope that there'll be more special based fighting types so that she can have a mix. And maybe more special defensive and defensive fighting types too while they're at it.

If anyone wants to talk about copying
Digimon's first thing was the Digital Pet
Which was already DONE by Tamagotchi~
AND! Pokemon came before Digimon. Pokemon was 1996
Digimon Digital Pets were 1997
They copy each other....it's conspiracy I tell you, they must be secretly working together

But I digress, if this new Gym leader is supposed to be the specialist on the Mega stone things
Why not be multitype?

Lol and Poke-aime is a copy of nintendogs.

Seriously nothing is new under the sun if you look at the big picture.

I wonder if Xerneas and Yvetal will get Megaevolutions...

That might depend on if any other legendaries besides Mewtwo will be getting any....
I think Mewtwo got one because even though it's one of the original biggest....It's severely underused because it lacks power when compared to the pokemon of the newer gens.

I hoping Korrina doesn't actually use a single type but specializes in high speed Pokemon because she's on roller blades. I know that's wishful thinking on my part but I think it would be a nice change.

Please tell me you're kidding me? Mewtwo has 130 Speed, 154 Sp.Attack, Aura Sphere and Psystrike. It's so fast and powerful it still manages to put just about every other Pokemon to shame. The reason it's underused is because it's banned in competitive play.

I can name one pokemon that can SLAUGHTER mewtwo, and it's not a legendary
Alakazam. The same pokemon I've always used to catch mewtwo.
It can also be easily beaten by Zoroark. Underuse has nothing to do with being banned, I'm talking about normal gameplay not competitive.
Mewtwo, just isn't as good as it used to be.

I really love what their doing with pokemon, especially the expansion of culture exchange between the regions. It makes me wonder though, is the pokemon world really just the real world in replacement of pokemon? There is strong evidence of that, especially since they based many places off of real locations in France for X and Y, New York City for America, parts of Japan in the previous 4. Conspiracy theories are fun...

Mewtwo, just isn't as good as it used to be.
That's quite bad reasoning. Firstly using an Alakazam to catch an untrained wild Mewtwo is a very bad comparison. Other than Magic Guard, Mewtwo has an absolute advantage over Alakazam in every possible aspect.

Secondly Zoroak is slower than Mewtwo even though it's a glass canon so Mewtwo would just flatten it before it got to act. Even if Zoroak used Sucker Punch there's no guarantee that Mewtwo will be attacking that turn since it has such a wide move pool.

Thirdly, I'm assuming "normal gameplay" refers to playing the story of the game where Mewtwo isn't available in the most games and is only available at the end of the post game in the ones he's in so there isn't any opportunity to use him. Then you also a multitude of players who flat out refuse to use any legendary Pokemon.

Then you also a multitude of players who flat out refuse to use any legendary Pokemon.
So you think it's simple to just catch a level 70 wild mewtwo with a level 44 alakazam?
And as for zoroark, if you EV train it for speed [which I tend to do with all my pokemon for at least 20 levels, speed is important in all battles], or with the right nature, it could easily out-speed a mewtwo. Focus sash, or razor claw, + night slash, either a one-hit crit K.O. two-turn domination.

Any legendary can be dominated with the right pokemon and the right trainer. And Post-game counts as normal gameplay. The other areas that unlock, and the places that don't have the built-in bans, like Black Tower and Whitetree Hollw.

Another good example, whether you see it as a bad example or not. My prime, Lucario, with Shadow Claw, can easily dominate Mewtwo as well, mewtwo's wide movepool, can't really help it with Lucario's resistances, and Mewtwo's commonly low defense [due to people generally training Sp stats] leaves it open to physical attacks.

P.S. this isnt the thread for discussing this :P

After seeing so much fanart of Dedenne, I'm obsessed with it. I've got no idea on if I'm pronouncing the name correctly though. I've always hated the names of the Pika-Clones though. Pachirisu, Emolga?! Like... those are not cute or iconic like Pikachu.

I'm currently obsessed with Mega Mawile, and I've always had an appreciation for just regular Mawile. She slays now. My trinity is Mega Mawile, Mega Blaziken, and Mega Lucario. They look like they could be in a totally awesome Pokemon fighting game.

Also, I've hear that it was confirmed that Megas are confirmed to be a Kalos only thing? Is that stupidity true?

They only say only Kalos due to the fact they've only just been discovered in the region, it'll pass to future gens for definite due to other regions beginning to hop on board the Mega bandwagon and providing more Mega Stones, after all, they wouldn't keep something as game changing and huge as this confined to just one region.
That' be like keeping Double Battles exclusive to Hoenn, or keeping the Special/Physical split exclusive to Sinnoh.

Mega evolution sound more like Super Saiyan to me than a Digimon copy, even the way they evolve in battle look more like Super Saiyan from Dragonball.

Serebii's updated, apparently the Japanese site says that that can only have One MegaEvolution in battle.
Apparently, this means either only one Pokémon in your team can hold a MegaStone, or, that if you sent out 2 Pokémon holding Megastones during a double battle, only one will change.
It's still a bit vague.

Either way, this means you'll never find someone with an entire team full of Megas.

There are two things about mega evolutions I'm hyped to know:

Will all pokemon be able to megavolve or not?

Or they will be just not in x and y, such as whenever a future generation comes they reveal a new mega evolution?


Will legndaries such as Genesect or Arceus be able to evolve?

I'm extremely interested about this! As you know Genesect has a extreme speed version in the animie, and arceus... well shaped the universe with it's thousand arms so?
