6th Gen X/Y General Chat and Speculation

[pokemonmasteraaron]

Xernias and Yveltal. Froakie fennekin & Chespin. Is it just me or are these the best Pokémon names for generations? Well, that's my personal opinion. I'm still shellshocked about 6th gen, but I am anticipating it moreso than I've anticipated a Pokémon game for a long while.

 

[RenegadeShroom]

Well, Yveltal at least definitely sounds like it has roots in European languages. I don't think the names are any problem once you realise that the "Y" in Yveltal isn't used in the same way as it's traditionally used in English.

Personally, I hope they go for a more Gen. I & II method with the two, not that I have any particular aversion to what we're now used to with the other three generations, but changing it up a bit every now and then seems good to me.

Just learned about Xerneas' and Yveltal's names. I can say Xerneas' name fine, but I might need a bit more practice with Yveltal.

 

[BrandoSheriff]

It's usually the legendary that decides which version I get. I believe I'm going to get Y, because I've taken a liking to Yveltal/Skybacon.

Well at least Xatu will have a friend now. No longer will it be the only one to start with X.

I didn't even realise Play-Asia had already begun pre-orders, not that it really makes a difference with the same month localisation but still. I wonder if the English sites will begin anytime soon?

There's even Pokemon X and Pokemon Y merchandise too~ Hand made plushies, watches, buttons, shirts, and charms are going on sale on Ebay~

There's a lot of hype for these games!

I was amazed about how quick people were with making them as well.

Welcome to the Internet. Of course they'd be quick.

The internet is fabulous that way.

Actually, someone made this Chespin clay doll with a cup to match already and I really want it. Pic here.

I want this but it's kinda expensive.. ;;

 

[Kura]

That's actually not a bad price for a handmade plush! I wonder if the eyes are pained on? It's a really good job!

It says they were machine embroidered in the description. Wow it has 23 bids, I wonder how much more it will get.

 

[Perico]

At least the white on its eyes looks like paper xP
But I agree, not a bad price and it's very well made.

it's cute but you'd probably pay less for the actual game.

 

[vaporeon7]

The starter plushies will be in abundance in October anyway.

 

[Captain Gizmo]

Those plushies are really neat o.o

But the prices... I could buy myself like almost 2 copies of Pokemon BW2 :C

That Fennekin plushs are so adorable, but the one from deviantArt looks better. ^^

I like this one a lot better than the other one. It looks softer too.

These ones of the other two starters are cute too:
