Update: The legendary Pokémon’s names have been confirmed as Xerneas and Yveltal according to the official Pokémon site . Any ideas about the name origin guys? The whole Yggdrasil theory is looking more and more likely by the moment.
These games will be launched simultaneously worldwide in October 2013! Here’s the information we have so far: [list style=”orb” color=”green”]
- Overworld and battles are now full 3D
- Grass starter is Chespin (Japanese name, Harimaron, based on ‘chesnut’ and ‘[pine] needle’)
- Fire starter is Fennekin (Japanese name, Fokko, based on ‘fox’ and ‘child’)
- Water starter is Froakie (Japanese name, Keromatsu, based on sound a frog makes and ‘bubbles/foam’)
[/list] WOW! Generation VI is a huge step forward. What do you think?!

ps- sorry for site errors! So many people!

Looks a bit like a DS game -_- also Fennekin seems to be my hands down choice. Always liked choosing the fire starter anyway. Hope it doesn’t end up fighting type.
The other legendary looks like Dialga
I wonder if there is going to be pokemon events for this game like there were for black and white
lol already anticipatin Pokemon Z. I wonder if this means all main series games will start coming out worldwide as opposed to delayed. and I’m also wondering what’s going to happen with the anime. also airing simultaneously? I doubt it. but nonetheless this is absolutely shocking and exciting.
but what about eevee 🙁
Eevee will have about 5 or more forms some of which are duel types (dark and electric).
I love how itll be coming out worldwide. Really shows how far weve come over the years. Im pretty excited to see how this will work!
Fennekin is just ah I love it ; v;
Ah also now that I keep watching the trailer and picking up on things…the way the boy trainer is standing infront of the mirror gets me thinking we may be able to do a little customization at the beginning. Might not be a lot to chose from but maye just to start you off.
And im also thinking maybe Fennekin could be fire/ground if they stick with the typing with the whole fennec foxes living in the desert and what not.
The double helix (DNA) is just there because X and Y stand for X and Y chromosomes. These games must have something to do with genetics
Or… X and Y refer to the 3D planes of X, Y, and Z. I base this theory off of the fact this is the first full 3D pokémon. Genetics? X and Y are male and female chromosomes. That… is lame.
I think sybolizes the evolution of the pokemon. If you look at some of the x and y pokemon they resemble pokemon from previous generations.
Regarding the deer at the end.. The japanese logo for x and y has what looks like a double helix above it.. Suggesting it may indeed by a fusion of the legendary deer from black and white..
Froakie….Froakie…Frog with glasses
Cannot contain excitement
I was hoping for sprites since they tend to look better with the 3D effect on the 3DS. I feel like the 3D worlds are lacking something, they look empty :/
Also, it’s so weird not having Pokemon Smash or Corocoro leaks.
I like the starters of this generation more than gen 5 already. But I do feel like I’m choosing between Vulpix Nuzleaf and Palpitoad a bit lol. Maybe we’ll get more pokemon revealed by the anime?
I am so happy! I have to say the Legendaries look amazing, and the starters look great. I have to say my favorite is Chespin, he looks cute and awesome at the same time. I know I will be choosing him the first time. The fire fox is cool, and it could be a psychic type too when it evolves. Froakie the frog is unique, I always loved the water starters and this one just leaves me asking questions. I wonder what their evolutions will look like.
Rollerskating main character? look at o.27 seconds on the video.No more running shoes, hello roller skates xD!!!!
IDK what video you been watching but they look 10x better then Gen 5 copy past of passed starters pokemon im extremely excited about Chespin and Froakin I’m not a big fan of the fox but as long as it wont be a fire/fighting type its cool with me though still need to see the evolutions
The grass and water starters are probably the most terrible we’ve had. I like the graphical style, but you can tell there’s still a lot of pixelation and the same battle screen is there, albeit with actual Pokemon movement there. I saw at least 3 different trainers, so I’m guessing those are customizable, finally. Bet we’ll see a Pokemon edition 3DS XL in America around October too, so I’ll wait to get one then. Overall, I’m pretty excited. I feel like an idiot for not guessing X and Y as names though.
Idk mudkip was pretty bad. The equivalent of Chespin in terms of quality. Froakie doesn’t look bad for a mon but not starter material.
Eeee! I am really excited for this. I was hoping for Gen 3 remakes, and thought a Gen 6 would be unlikely because of being early, but I love to see what kind of Pokemon come out
My favorite starter is Fennekin <3 It is really adorable. Plus, I love fire types.
I’m hoping this ties unova and the other 4 regions together! it looks like there’s Pokemon from all 5 regions so I hope that’s the case c:
You know I watched it and japanese and at first thought it was actually pokèmon rainbow lmao… Then I was like -_- then I kept watching then I was like O.O
Few things no one here has said yet:
*Bug Gym from what it looks like. The character falls down onto a net with dewdrops. Spinarak should be here, then… Or perhaps a new spider?
*Fire E4? Walking into a room and big pillars of fire.
*What’s going on in that desert? Kinda looks spacey…
*Those sprites look customizable to me. The female look quite ranger-y, and seemingly more decorated than the male… Who has glasses on his head, which doesn’t seem like something that would be a stable design, to me.
*I have no idea about the grass or fire, but the water type kinda looks water / flying to me with all that white fluff. Will certainly be interesting to see what they turn into!
*Is the fire starter using… a psychic attack? Or is that confuse ray? What’s going on there?
*The pitfall… More interaction with the environment by the character? Maybe an end to HMs~
Since the region looks like it is based on France, the male protagonist looks Frenchy with glasses on the top of his hat and with styled straight fön hair. I don’t like him though.
If it’s based in France, that gives me even more reason to hope we get character customization. After all, France is known for art and fashion.
If you look closely, the glasses are gone when he’s vine swinging, so yeah some little customizations will be possible 😉
Wow! You really caught that! Lol
Hopefully, you’re right and hopefully, it’s not a glitch.
I’m hopeful, though.
=]
It’s not that he took his shades off but rather that indeed it glitched and they were not rendered seamlessly. What this means is that at least this piece of clothing is a separate model, which means that customization is quite likely since all items of clothing would have to be distinctive pieces.
The glasses get left at the beginning of the jump, lol. I’m guessing that the fact that they aren’t the same model as the trainer, that they’re removable. That leads me to believe that you’ll have at please some degree of customization. ^-^
Honestly though, considering how the trailer starts in front of a mirror I think that’s where you finish up once you design your character. Possibly.
The screen says, Not to be taken as Gameplay footage.
None of what we were shown is actual game footage. Just stuff Gamefreak whipped up for the presentation.
To be fair, all trailers since 4th gen have had that disclaimer. And they all ended up exactly the same.
It is real footage except for the start with pikachu and the footage of the new legendary. Other than that it was real.
No offense but this is amazing. I actually like the Fire Starter. This is a hard trio to choose from.
Who would be offended by that? o.o?
It really is an amazing trio to choose from.
Grass = Cute
Fire = Beautiful & Elegant
Water = Cool
\(☼o☼)/
Happy grass Oshawott, a Fennec Fox, and a frog with tiny glasses? Sign me up!
I cannot wait for the leaks to start coming out. And the rumors! I want to see more so badly…
Idk what to say tbh. I like the starters, but it will take me a while to adjust to the new art style of the game. It is just too early for me to draw a conclusion right now. That one legendary looks like dialga and stantler had a child……
OMG so excited !! the only thing im narked about is its on 3DS looks like ive gotta save up !!
I love the look of the legendaries. They’re pretty badass, i wonder what they represent ?
And a little surprised there is no Lizard/Reptile Starter :O And Fennekin and Forakie are so cute !
One of them we’ve figured out. The other we’re still working on its origin. Keep checking back 🙂
Hmm.. dont get me wrong i’m excited for this ..however I feel its all sort of been thrust upon us too quickly.. I like the anticipation and corocoro leaks etc..
But anyway Fennekin was by far the best starter so i’m ready for this 😉
Well crap, now I need to buy a 3DS.
I think that I am the only person to speculate that Chespin could possibly be ground type? and that Froakie could be Flying or Psychic and Fenniken could be Dark type?
The legendaries look to be dark (pokemon y) and psychic (pokemon x)
