    I decided to make this thread because of the new video released. To me it looks like a battle underwater. Now, This could mean dive will still be in this game to (Or maybe a new means of getting underwater? 0.0) Obviously we are gonna have dive and surf. That's a given. But do you think there will be new HM's? Such as specific HM's for horde battles maybe? Or maybe a HM to ride certain Pokemon? So, what HM's do you think might make a appearance in Pokemon X and Y? Which ones do you want to see? And do you think there will be new HM's and if so what do you think they will do?
     
    Well we don't really know if Surf & Dive will be HMs anymore, I mean maybe they will be deletable by normal ways, & that's what I really hope for but it isn't yet confirmed.
    If HMs stayed then there will probably be an HM for riding pokes on land, we already ride them when using Fly/Dive/Surf & they need HMs for that, but that's just my thought...

    If anything I would wish for HMs to be non-existent, meaning water pokes can surf without learning the move surf, but a corresponding gym badge would be needed for each of those moves to be used.
     
    As I've mentioned before last week I predict that Rock Smash and Rock Climb would be returning to the games as HMs. There may be obstacles such as for example thin walls or just rocks which can easily be be cut through by Rock Smash. Rock Climb may be useful for climbing flat, vertical ledges (Works just like Waterfall without the water).

    Some people think that Ride will be the new HM move but it might be classified as a TM. Who knows? My initial guess for the next HM move would be something like Float (A status move which works exactly like Magnet-Rise). The use of Float outside of battle would glide the player gently down sheer drops.
     
    Well, rock smash was turned into a TM in generation V, remember? Hopefully more useless ones will be tms like cut for example.
