Pokémon X & Y

[zangoose]

Good lord....eshop teaser have shown fennekin using a punch move ; ; This made me wanna cry... ; ;

Not a fire/fight starter again.....................

[Dark_Soriel]

Could you put up a link please?

[zangoose]

My bad. http://youtu.be/uAIn8a1WCHo

It might look just like the other dozen gameplay footage vids, but once again they left a bit of new info hidden in it.

[Dark_Soriel]

On the pokemon page, they say it's a fire type, nothing about being a fighter/fire type. Maybe a TM move?

[zangoose]

Yep, it's pure fire...but torchic, chimchar and tepig also are...they receive the fight-type after the first evolution.

[Trinkuh]

Me and my boyfriend are both spazzing as we wait for it and i work at walmart so i look at the preorder for it all the time and it is killing me!

[zangoose]

Same here...I'm almost like Cartman already...asking someone to freeze me til it's released =P

Btw...might have more stuff coming this week with the early corocoro + PGL rankings.

[Dark_Soriel]

I already preordered both games and I will have preorder stuff comming with those.

[zangoose]

WTF....R.I.P. hype.

Corocoro brought a new mechanics called "mega evolution". Now pkmn just created a new term...the "Digimonization", where you drop any unique concepts to turn into a digimon clone. /pentafacepalm

[zangoose]

Officil site was updated to reflect these new corocoro info.

[Dark_Soriel]

Now they have a battle form. I sure hope they are worthy of the time some players will put in getting the items for those.

[zangoose]

Finally a really creative megaform...mega kangaskahn's mega form actually transforms the baby, not the adult one, allowing it to fight alongside with its mom!

[Gleason]

So with these mega-evolutions, do you have to use a turn in battle to do so?
I know your pokemon will revert back after the battle, and I wonder if the hold item is consumed or not.

That being said, I have my copy of Pokemon X reserved already. I'm just waiting to find out if there's a midnight release at that store or not!

[Mysteryguy]

The Mega-Evolutions, despite being kinda Digimon-ish, actually look really cool. They may be able to use the mechanic to fix a lot of the more neglected Pokemon (I wanna use a Furret competitively ;.;) without completely revising stats

Indeed. Just too bad not every pkmn will have a mega stone. I bet they will mainly stay at strong and "meant to be strong" pokemons, leaving the commons ones (commonly found at starting routes) behind.

I hope not tho. I'm hoping these mega evolutions being made for all fully-evolved pkmns and even for some NFE ones like pikachu and eevee.

[Dark_Soriel]

Mega Eevee... I,m sure it would be cute and cool at the same time.

[zangoose]

Yep! Also, eevee is the "natural" rival of pikachu since she's Gary's pokemon! Would be awesome some rematch of them at anime, but this time "DBZ-style"! =P

Would be epic!

[zangoose]

Yet another update at official site, now showing images, SS e some new info o mega absol, ampharos and mawile.

[Dark_Soriel]

Saw some cosplay and fan arts of X and W pokemon and trainers at Otakuthon.
