Yes. Annual, not monthly. :P

Five bucks/year is literally nothing. That's like a meal at subway.

I've paid. I only have to not buy the newspaper for 4 days and it'll be paid for.

219744. I only have to not buy candy for one day and it'll be more than paid for.

I still have yet to pay it, though.

 

[Pokestick good times.]

219745

I... haven't paid it either.

Let's wait until the next generation comes out at which point we'll have to do it.

 

[Ivysaur]

Apparently a guy in the games gives you an item to be used in a "new" region not seen yet, and specifies that it's not any region from any past main-series games.

SOOOO WHO KNOWSS

Well yes, it would be strange if they WEREN'T going to introduce a new region in the foreseeable future.

 

[Twilight-kun]

Wait, what?

Where?

Ah, the whole "region hidden in XY" theory. I'd be happy if there were, and considering all that we don't know about the game, it's a possibility...

...But considering the size of the game (data-wise), I'm not sure how likely it would be, and if it were DLC that would kind of null the whole "hidden" part of the theory.

Although I do like the whole Anistar sundial thing, but I'm too lazy to go look for Mega Stones

Nuzlocking here. Doin my own Biblical Nuzlocke. I found a shiny Fletchling and got really excited because it was my first (or one of my first) shinies, caught it, and now it's dead ._.

I over-level during Nuzlockes

"Oh ho, Gym Leader, your pokemon are level 15? MINE ARE LEVEL 30"

Never heard of a theory saying there's another region in XY. What grounds could that have? O_o
However there's been talk that the next games will take place in a wholly new region, abandoning Kalos without any "third game". That'd sort of make sense considering they could release new pokémon in smaller, more frequent bursts that way, which would explain the tiny amount we got in XY... that would leave the whole Zygarde thing unfinished, though.

Overlevelling in nuzlockes? B-but it's supposed to be a challenge. ;_;

I subscribe to the latter theory.

New region is always welcome :-D

 

[machomuu]

219755

Yeah, I agree about the overlevelling deal. The thrill of nuzlocking is what makes it so fun, which is part of the reason I make it a point not to grind.

And I really hope they don't skip to the next games already. XY is the most fun I've had in a pokemon game in over a decade, and if they were to make new releases an annual/semi-annual deal, I can only see the game becoming yet more victims to quick dryness, and I can't see the progress in experimentation with pokemon as a world, a game, and a story that GF has been making since BW (or arguably Platinum) not regressing and being wasted as a result. Unless they changed the formula, of course, but the chances of them doing that are slim.

XY would certainly need that cleanup, yeah. Like DP they weren't yet optimized for the system, so I hope Kalos will get a revisit in order to prevent it from staying half-functional in our memories.

...Then again, normal games solve those issues with patches. Patches for XY seem entirely focused on game-breaking bugs, it seems. :(


Yeah, they need time to develop the really good stuff (although they allegedly started on XY before BW were even released). Hopefully they put their resources to good use. Also new mechanics please, this kind of turn-based combat is getting a litttle stale.

Or, as Emile is saying in his DX GoD LP, bring back Cipher

the two Gamecube games leave a lot to go on
