  • I only have a limited amount of money so I'm not going to use it buying two of the same game with different Pokemon. If I need the other, I'll just get a ROM or transfer the Y exclusive Pokémon into X.

    I'm just going to get Pokémon X. 3ds games are expensive!

    I'm going for X because I prefer the legendary. It looks so elegant and graceful :D Also, I just like the letter X better than the letter Y, for some reason.

    I'm most likely getting Y. I've been wanting a Dark/Flying legendary for some time now.
    As soon as the third one is announced I'll get that one too so I can test battle mechanics and whatnot (assuming we get the pokemon Y XL so I can actually play both games at once.)

    Y! Yvetal looks badass and my boyfriend's getting X, so it's a pretty easy choice for me. I honestly don't mind which I end up getting as the version exclusives look great for both, so we've made an agreement to trade over any Pokémon we want from the other versions and it'll all be fine and dandy. Plus have you seen the giant letter 'Y' on the case? Pure badass.

    Well since I can't really judge the games, il just go for Y simply because the legendary looks cooler in my opinion.

  • Well, when I buy a Pokémon game, I always end up buying its counterpart somewhere down the road. So to make things simple, ever since Gen 5, I buy both versions at once. This time will be no exception.

    Yveltal seems so badass, but all the artwork, title screens and artistic influence for X looks so breathtaking gorgeous. This is going to be a tough choice but I think I'll go with Y and then buy the third instalment or X2, whatever the next game to come out is.

  • Probably X, as I much prefer the design of Xerneas to Yveltal. I won't be getting them on launch, so I'll definitely end up having a look at exclusives and other differences between the games before making my final decision.

  • I will probably get Pokemon Y based on a pattern I've been following since the days of Gold and Silver.

    Gold & Silver - got Gold
    Ruby & Sapphite - got Ruby
    FireRed & LeafGreen - got LeafGreen
    Diamond & Pearl - got Pearl
    HeartGold & SoulSilver - got HeartGold
    Black & White - got Black

    Even though I think Xerneas looks cooler than Yveltal, I'm alright with choosing Y over X.

  • I'm thinking that I will get Pokemon Y. I like the legendary mascot of that game better, and I think it will have better exclusives.

    I love the look of Xerneas, so I'm getting X. My brother and I always pick opposite versions so that we can trade for exclusives! He got to pick the gen 5 game he wanted, so I got to pick this time around.
