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?!

I would like to point out that there’s an Eevee on the Golurk statue in the pond. Notice how both Golurk and Palpitoad are part ground-types. Maybe we’ll have a ground-type eeveelution this generation?
Guys, check this out, it’s probably fan artwork but it is GREAT:

If those are not the real final evolutions I am going to be disappointed
Yes, the person who designed them did a great job in such a short time. I mean Fennekin’s evo looks “uh(!)mazing”, so does the Froakie’s. Chespin’s evolution might be better though. I hope the real ones are better.
Oh god, look at Fennekin’s tail and ear-beard! Look at gentleman Froakie!
Names of the Legendaries released: Xerneas and Yveltal
Xerneas and Yveltal are confirmed to be x and y names (by serebii).
NOT according to Serebii, according to pokemon.com !
could froakie’s second attack be acrobatics judging by its overall look it would support a water flying starter
We think it’s a fighting attack :3
Xerneas and Yveltal. I agree with everyone saying that there will be a link to Norse mythology within these games.
Yveltal is probably based on Quetzalcoatl.
I saw the similarity there too, but it doesn’t fit too well with the Norse mythology theme we think is going on though, seeing as Quetzalcoatl is Aztec.
Something could still be in it though!
Maybe there will be differences in the Story depending on the Legendary ? (has Pokemon done that yet)
There could be, guess we will have to wait to find out! It has happened before, but only in very minor ways: time/space in DP, truths/ideals in BW, land/sea in RS. Very minor.
I like the names of the Legendaries, is hoping we see their official artwork soon aswell as other Pokemon 😀
Also is CoroCoro out this month ?
CoroCoro is out this month. We’re not sure how much information it’ll have and whether anything will be new, or just a repeat of what we’ve seen. Be certain we will cover it if anything is contained!
Im going to guess on the 2013 look back at the end of the year, this will story with the HUGE amount of comments, will be highlighted 🙂
That or when the finalalised starter forms / full pokedex are leaked that will create a Massive buzz in the pokejungle community 😀
I can guess Yveltal is a Flying legendary, but Xerneas puzzles me..I’m hoping its a New Type :3
I’m thinking it’ll have water in it. Since the thing it most likely based on drips water from its antlers and creates springs.
I just show my best friend the trailer for X and Y (by the way he is an ex-Pokemon fan and now an Xbox lover). He thinks it looks so good that he is gonna save up for a Nintendo 3DS. True story and it shows the power of Pokemon!!!
I think I saw at least 3 gyms in the video. Swinging trees, grass, web, bug, and reforming house, psychic. 😀 So excited about these games and want MORE information everyday!
I’m in 2 minds about the legendary names. I mean obviously they had to start with X & Y respectively but they sound weird. With Xerneas, I keep thinking of CERN (as in the supercollider) and Xemnas (KH). With Yevltal I keep thinking of Eevee and Elton (don’t ask me why), hopefully they’ll grow on me
since this game is like based on france ( i think) wonder if GF put the famous underground catacombs 😛 (i’d love to explore it ehehe..:)
Mr. Mime will feel at home, as he eats a baguette while sipping on the finest café.
C’est la vie~♥
Love the new names! They’re very interesting! I’m not sure whether I want to wait for more news…or wait until October and be completely surprised! It’s so hard to keep away from this site! Can’t wait to see the new villain team!
love the starters and legends!!
the part of the video in the desert with the massive white tower reminds me of orres realgm tower
Xerneas doesn’t look very much like an X. Maybe it’ll have an alternate form?
If you get a full frontal picture of it with its two forelegs spread apart even angled with its antlers, it makes an X.
In fact, there is a X in Xerneas’s eyes
Am I the only one that thinks that Chespin is flipping adorable? I mean I like Fennekin (which almost everybody does), but Froakie came off as a little weird for a starter to me at first. However, I have definitely grown to it.
I think he’s adorable too x) I dont know why no one likes him as much :/ He’s definetaly my choice
Pokémon X (I LOVE Xerneas, he’s a blue buck, what’s not to like) will definitely be my main game (I always end up getting both) with Fennekin as my X starter, foxes are my fave animal and fire is my fave type so it’s automatically my fave of the three. When I eventually get Pokémon Y I’ll be using Froakie, I’ve really taken a liking to the little frog. Also Chespin has grown on me, he’s pretty adorable. On a side note, can’t wait for CoroCoro in the next few days and Pokémon Smash on Sunday!!! Please give us new info and not just reiterations of what we saw in the trailer.
I personally want to buy both….but will probably get Pokemon X….as for the starters i chose by how they look so i will have to see the remaining evolutions in order to figure out which one i will choose…so far i will either choose Fennekin or Chespin. Froakie doesnt really look that interesting because to me it looked similar to palpitoad and No Offense but i didnt like palpitoad and its evolutions that much… But it all comes down to its evolved forms.
Might as well take a guess at this, so I’m calling it now! The protagonist’s names will be Xavier and Yvette!
Wow. Nice one with the names. I hadn’t even considered the trainer’s names. Excellent work though! lol i’ll be surprised if they don’t use those names. 🙂
I’m going to call it now, the protags’ names will be Xander & Yvonne!!!
Wouldn’t it make more sense to flip the letters, especially if there’s a DNA/chromosome theme going on? i.e. “Xena and Yale” or something.
They are actually Xavier and Yvonne! Nice guess!
Tbh. I didn’t really expect a 6th gen. First off the anime is starting a new season in unova , they hadn’t even released the genesect movie, not to mention most of the 5th gen Pokemon dream world abilities haven’t been released. I’m really curious to see how this all plays out with the game being released in October and usually the anime is released before the games.
froakie is freakie
