The fire starter is a Fennec! I love fennecs. And it might not evolve into a Fire/Fighting type. Yay!
Is that meant to be a Pokefied version of the Eiffel Tower? Does this mean we're getting a region based on France?

First New York, now Paris... Looks like GF is expanding its horizons a bit here, which I personally love.
The starter names are just lame, though.

Pokemon Y it is, then. Water starter is silly, which is a first =P.
Anyhow, very interesting, but nostalgic at the same time; hearkens back to gamecube style play, but with an actual RPG, so I'll be impressed to see where this all goes.

I AM SO FREAKIN PSYCHED I ??? CANT HANDLE THIS WOW
As for starters, I'll end up going with fire as always, but at least odds are good that it can't possibly be fire/fighting!
theyre probably fire/psychic, water/fighting, and grass/dark, which would do good to reverse the type effectiveness triangle the starters usually have with their secondary types

Oh my, Pokemon X and Pokemon Y? A new generation already? This is incredible!
I think I'll go with Fennekin. Chespin is starting to grow on me (already?), but Froakie still looks as ridiculous as ever.

I found this awesome sig on the internet, I don't take any credit for making it!
Also, call me JiMing. My current name is from one of the best villains from the Sonic the Hedgehog series.

Guys, Froakie is not going to be a water/fighting type. There is a cloud around his neck. That indicates that its either going to be water/flying, water/ice (because snowclouds exist and 'froakie' may come partially from freeze) or pure water type. I can't speak for the other ones though, though I suspect Fennekin may be fire/psychic.
As for the starter I'll pick, I'm going to go with Froakie (if his evolutions look good) because he looks great and it looks like they'll be doing a cloud theme with him. That is just really cool to me. Water starters have yet to disappoint, so I'm confident. Also, I really don't like Chespin, he just looks cluttered and, to be blunt, sort of dumb. Fennekin looks good, but is way better looking in-game than in official art.

Guys, Froakie is not going to be a water/fighting type (Ignoring the fact that the trio would be really unbalanced to Fennekin's hindrance if this was the case)
??? if froakie were water/fighting it wouldnt make it unbalanced
froakies primary type makes it weak to chespins primary and strong against fennekins primary, while their secondary types would reverse that perfectly, especially since their secondary types arent strong or weak against their primary types

okay i'm gonna say it, the new 'mons look great [which is surprising, usually you hate the new 'mons then warm up to them] but the in game graphics, like the character models, look awful

Yeah, sorry, I was thinking of the other way (grass/fight, fire/psychic, water/dark). Sorry, still waking up. Still, the dark, fight, psychic trio will always be slightly unbalanced due to dark's immunity, and Froakie just doesn't have any indications of being a water/fight or water/dark and there is much more concrete evidence for other types based on the design and name.
One last thing, if Froakie's shiny form has the colour scheme of Cyclos from the Wind Waker like Normal Froakie has the scheme of Zephos, that will be the best reference ever.

- In addition to existing Pokemon, there will be a large number of completely new Pokemon. The additions will bring the total number of Pokemon in the franchise from the current 649 to over 700.
- Because of Pokemon X and Y, the Pokemon anime, movies, card game, and merchandise will “break into a new dimension.”
- People around the world will be able to simultaneously experience “Real Play.” (I’m assuming this is referring to the game’s global October release.)
- The game will utilize the 3DS to its maximum abilities to leverage its overwhelmingly beautiful presentation.
- The game uses an innovative communication system that makes it feel as if you are playing with other players around the world.
- The bonds between players and Pokemon will deepen, and Pokemon will become stronger with the new battle structure.
- Everyone will enjoy the game’s scenario and music.

Looks like they learned from 5th generation. ![]()
Anyway, the new Pokemon Mystery Dungeon game had made me seriously consider getting a 3DS. Now I know I'll get one.
My thoughts on the new Pokemon:
Chespin - This guy looks really cute. He's probably my second favorite of the bunch. (Although I may actually pick him if Fennekin does end up being Fire/Fighting...)
Fennekin - There's a reason why Quilava is my favorite Pokemon of all time. It looks cute and tough at the same time. You can cuddle with it like a pet, but it can certainly hold its own in a fight. Fennekin seems to have inherited this trait from the Cyndaquil line, and I'll definitely be picking it as my starter (unless it ends up evolving into yet another Fire/Fighting type...)
Froakie - My least favorite of the bunch, but he'll probably grow on me.
Legendary X - Looks like a Virizion/Arceus fusion. To be honest, his antlers just seem way too big. If they were going for the X shape, they could have bulked out his lower body a bit more.
Legendary Y - This guy looks awesome, and reminds me of one of the kami trio's Therian formes.

Yeah, something about the colors on the trailers seems a little, lighter, I guess. Well, on the Pokemon anyway. For example, just compare that Pikachu's (From the trailer) yellow to another Pikachu from an older game or some art. The yellow is quite a bit lighter... Wait, maybe I was just imagining it. ![]()
Well, it still seems like it's the slightest bit lighter. Or maybe it's something else.
On another note, I told my friend he'd need a 3DS to get the next Pokemon game (Because like everyone else, I assumed it was going to be a Generation 6 game on the 3DS), so he's gonna have to get one soon if he wants to join me, my sister, and his sister in Generation VI!

Not gonna lie but when I saw the new trailer I was interested but I feel like Gen 6 is going to be the games that I might skip mainly at the fact I have been relearning pokemon since Gen 2 and honestly it has become rather tiring, unless the games actually are good then I might consider trying out one. On another note in B2 I finally caught myself a Tynamo and I usually nickname my pokemon after it's first form Japanese name but I discovered the best name for it ever and named it after Eelektross's french name Ohmassacre.

I actually like the name Yveltal. '-'
But anyway, it's not like the new hero(ine) is radically gigantic. He's probably about half the size of the Route sign, when they're side by side. And it's not like the sprites haven't been getting bigger.

The new legendaries have been revealed to be named Xerneas and Yveltal. Hello? I'd like to buy a vowel? This is why they should have stuck to using colors.
'Y' is a vowel
it makes the short 'e' sound
it's pronounced ee-vel-tal
also, the protagonist looks an awful lot like hilbert with a haircut

Not gonna lie once again but I think the graphics are gonna seem nonpokemonish as I really hoped the next game was still in the trademark sprites.
