Pokemon News Thread

Best pokemon. Am get one when the game comes out. xD

I so have to do a recording on this >.>

Not huge news, and I'm sure most of you have seen this already, but another short clip has been released showing the starter evolutions in battle and revealing their English names. They also reveal that the fossil Pokemon are called Tyrunt and Amaura, the poodle is called Furfrou, the cat-like Pokemon is called Meowstic and the lion is called Pyroar.

Watch the video here.

Also, Serebii have said that The Pokemon Company are going to make a special announcement on Monday. Whether this is regarding X and Y or something different we don't know, but I wonder what it is...?

i should update this thread more

Pokemon X and Y have both been released and I'm already on the post game for X, but these games are DEFINITELY longer than the norm! Graphics are great, but they seriously didn't need to make it on the 3DS. Legit, only the battles are 3D.
Lots of great features, like Wonder Trade! You can trade any Pokemon for a random Pokemon from another person. I traded a Fletchling for a Riolu, and earlier today I traded a Kakuna for a Bagon. (Man I felt bad about that, lol)
EXP share now gives EXP to ALL POKEMON IN YOUR PARTY. Not just one. All.
Sylveon is a bitch to get. A real bitch.
You can access GTS, battles, trades, etc anywhere in the game, as long as you have internet.
Sacred Sword is no longer musketeer-exclusive. (My Duoblade learnt it at lvl 50.)
Pokemon Bank's American release date is still unannounced, I believe.
Fairy-types are a pain in the ass to deal with but godly when you have one.
You cannot run through grass. Instead, you move horrible slow.
Roller Skates, which is automatic using the circle pad, is much faster than running and is fucking great.
Pokemon Amie is worth investing your time in. Trust me.

Also, Goomy is god.

Also another thing.

If you max your pokemon's happiness in pokemon amie, it has a chance to land criticals more often, has a chance to heal ANY status problem, has a chance to leave your pokemon at 1 hp if your pokemon was to faint from the attack, and you get a pretty decoration x3

LOVE this friggin' game, oh my god. <33

Mega-evolution is more awesome than I thought it was going to be, lol.

Who else can't find their way around Lumiose City for shit? XD

That's what the cabs are for x3

But if you keep taking cabs you'll never get to know your way around. XP

Nah, I'm better at it now. I friggin' LOVE the boutique there, although it's a pain the arse to actually get in there, lol.

On my third playthrough now. After some problems I finally got my new 3DS hooked up to the internet and downloaded that special Torchic. <333

Arrgh, someone needs to post those new Mega Evolutions!

Mmmph, this video lists the known Mega forms of Pokemon, Oh yeah spoilers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLY062owp8M
OMG ISN'T BANETTE SO COOOL Manectric, why must you be so lame

Three new pokemon confirmed, Dianci, Volcanion, and Hoopa. They are so far not accessible in-game, so we're assuming they'll be downloadable events. Latias/Latios mega-evolutions have also been confirmed.

Legendary Mega Evos? God no

Normal pokemon Mega Evos were bad enough, now there's legends?

OKay, so PokeBank is released but in certain countries they've closed the E-shop due to excessive overload of downloads. As of such, the E-shop is currently unusable until it is up and running.

OMG. 

Ruby. Sapphire. Remake. November. 

http://serebii.net/omegarubyalphasapphire/

I am so ridiculously happy.

IT'S FINALLY BEEN CONFIRMED

HALLELUJAH

Gawd I'm still geeking out, lol. 

I'm curious though - the video said "explore a dramatic NEW world".  I'm wondering if it'll even be set in Hoenn at all. 

Still, all we have so far are the names and box art, so I guess we'll have to be patient.

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.

I can die happy now

Wow, I thought this thread was going to be bursting. :/

Anyway, there's some footage released of Groudon and Kyogre bursting from the water and activating their Abilities:

Don't know if this is final gameplay footage or not, but at least it's something.

HOENN REMAKE CONFIRMED HOENN REMAKE IS CONFIRMED IM SO HAPPY YOU DONT EVEN KNOW
(trumpet noises in the background)

THE TIME HAS FINALLY COME! I thought the box art was fan made when I first saw it ;w;

So what do you guys think of the exciting new neeeeewz?

In case you haven't got it yet:

Spoiler:

The new forms of Groudon and Kyogre as seen on the box art are called Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre. They get boosts in Attack and Sp.Attack respectively and Primal Groudon is a Ground/Fire type. Their Abilities are unknown.

Spoiler:

That's pretty much it for the major stuff - there's more on Serebii plus a couple of trailers.

So ... thoughts? omg I can't wait holy sheet

They look so sexy!

Wonder if they'll be doing Emerald

Looks exciting can't wait to get the remake

Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon looks exciting as it has all the pokemon from gen 1 to 6 and more updates will some come as more info arrives.

Just forty minutes ago, we finally got some legit information on Pokemon Sun and Moon, including the starters, region name and glimpse at each of the legendaries!



What do we think? c:
