6th Gen X/Y General Chat and Speculation

[Cyclone]

But once again, how does the tail migrate to the head?

I'm leaning more towards a failed experiment like Mewtwo. Forme doesn't match the tail moving.

But once again, how does the tail migrate to the head?

How do Pokémon like Magikarp and Feebas evolve into Gyarados and Milotic respectively? How does Dewott evolve into something like Samurott? Sometimes a Pokémon's evolution just doesn't make sense or GameFreak doesn't feel the need to follow logic. Things like this just happen, because it's what GameFreak wants to do.

If Newtwo is some sort of new form for Mewtwo, it wouldn't be out of this world to believe that its tail moved to its head. Stranger things have definitely happened. I don't think it's an evolution for Mewtwo though, and I hope GameFreak doesn't delve further into Pokémon fusion than they already have. If anything, it's either a new form or as yourself and others believe, a standalone Pokémon who's deemed as a failed experiment; I'm rooting for the latter.

Pokemon dosent always follow logic. Sky forme Shaymin looks vastly different than Land Shaymin, but is still the same Pokemon. I think it's still very likely that is is a new Mewtwo forme.

 

[Yamiidenryuu]

Keep in mind that we're getting a new movie trailer on the 18th that's supposed to shed some light on Newtwo. Given that, there probably won't be that much on it in Corocoro, which is officially released just a couple days before that.

Kinda going off both of these:

Its the same Pokemon, but its body goes through very drastic changes. Skin added, reforms, removes, and thickens. Its head gets new, longer appendages in speed form, spikes in attack, and becomes a domed block in defense.

Migrating parts really that uncommon even with form changes.

I agree, I think Game Freak threw any similarity between evolutions out the window whe they made Remoraid and Octillery.

 

[blue]

Well I think many evolutions began to defy logic in the fourth generation, just take Nosepass and Probopass for example.

 

[Pinkie-Dawn]

Wouldn't evolutions that defy logic be a good thing? It's more creative than a full evolved form being just a bigger version of its basic/first stage evolution. *coughPoliwrathcough*

It's how I see starter evos becoming since Gen 3, and if any leaks of the Gen 5 starters' evo look like only bigger versions of their basic/first stage pop up on the internet, then I call it fake.

Actually, I keep forgetting they're related. I think it was set up for an anime story, not so much for game purposes. And I have both in my Black PC because I forgot that relation. *d'oh*

When I was reading the official site, I saw how it said it has powerful eyes. At first I thought that was kind of pointless information, but then I saw the eyes were different than Mewtwo's. I checked all the other form changes just for fun, and no matter how much their bodies have changed, the eyes have always remained the same (excluding Shaymin, who develops whites around its irises, but still very recognizable as the same eyes). Coincidence, or maybe a hint from GF?

 

[AtecainCorp.]

I think is that new Pokemon can be not Mewtwo Form... But long waiting for fans MEWTHREE... Meybe they look similar. But it was idiotic idea to making a new Form for Pokemon from 1st gen in 6th generation. I think it was a Mewthree... And it take a new plot. Possible that Mewthree been weapon of Team Rocket in war with Team Plasma <Been two episodes do not aired about TR vs TP> Meybe this plot been in EXTREMESPEED GENESECT.

 

[Shiny Celebi]

I honestly dont see how it can't be a Mewtwo forme and I say it has a good chance of being just that. Although I'd like to think that it's a new Pokemon,it does look quite similar to Mewtwo, though a bit weird on how it's tail is now on it's head, I'm sure there is an explanation.

First time I saw Remoraid, I thought it was cool Pokemon, would of had a bamf evolve form, like a Submarine Pokemon (Wailord does not count!). Cause it looked like a Torpedo for Mantine, until it evolved into a duck face octupus which was odd, and such a curve ball that hit me right in the face, in the tempo for an accurate spot. So I Game Freak doesn't do that again. Unless it compelled appropriate that Octillery to be its evolve from then I take it back.

Though Clamperl and its trade evolutions are borderline of the same subject, sort of, I think, ish.

Yup, those are very drastic, and so is Surskit's evolution...evolving from a water spider to a moth/ damselfly thing. So generation III's defenetely got several of those cross (real life) species evolutions.

Perhaps the eyes mean that it's become more vicious? It could be a "Red eyes- take warning" thing.

 

[Ho-Oh]

I noticed the eyes too, actually. And what comes to mind is... Mewthree, evil or not? :(

 

[OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire]

It's the eleventh in Japan now...we should get something by Sunday if anything as the official site typically updates around Corocoro's release.

 

[Xander Olivieri]

No Pokemon is inherently evil. We have a few with Red eyes as well. The main site simply says his eyes show power which could be a hint that he's stronger than we may think. I don't think this new one will be evil.

 

[Jake♫]

I severely doubt that we'd be given an actually evil Pokémon. Just seems out of character for the games as a whole honestly.

 

[Sirfetch’d]

I agree, making the pokemon evil just seems a little out of character and I doubt it will ever happen. People will always use Pokemon for evil purposes, but I can't see them putting in a Pokemon that is evil itself.

That reminds me of the Island of Giant Pokémon episode. But anime means nothing, sooo...
