New Worldwide X & Y Information!

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMnwB6neGlY

The International names of Pokémon, moves and Region etc have been added to the update. All the information can be found below!

  • Gogoat’s English name remains as Gogoat. The Pokémon is Grass type and is able to learn Horn Leech, which was we reported on previously.
  • Erikitel, is to be called Helioptile in English. The Electric/Normal typing is a little unusual. It learns Parabolic Charge, which heals the user for half of the damage it deals to its enemies.
  • Yanchamu will be known as Pancham in English and is Fighting type. Pancham learns a new move called Parting Shot, which lowers the target’s Attack and Special Attack, then switches itself out for another Pokémon in the party.
  • Yayakoma will be known as Fletchling in English. It’s Normal/Flying  and learns the Fire type move Flame Charge. Could it be that Fire will be more prominent in it as it evolves…?
  • The new region in X & Y is known as Kalos we correctly romanised the Japanese name as this. As we suspected, it most likely comes from the greek word ‘kalos’, meaning ‘good, beauty’. The region is shaped similar to a star and is based on France, pulling many features and locations from the real-world country.
  • Lumiose City is the central city of the Kalos region, and is based on Paris. It features an Eiffel tower-like structure, little canals and even has 3D models of cars and maps.
  • Customization confirmed. You are able to get new outfits and accessories at certain points in the game. You are able to change your costumes when you ‘go back’, possibly to your home town.
  • Diagonal walking confirmed. No more 4 directional walking.
  • Xerneas is pronounced ZURR-nee-us and Yveltal ee-VELL-tawl

This also means that Pokébeach’s source was right, things should get interesting!

  1. I’ll just leave these pics here for those who haven’t seen ’em yet.
    I wonder what Gogoat’s pre-evo will be named. Gokid?

  2. Does anyone else think that it is strange that the starters have a move of their own type at level 5? Could this mean that we are getting the starters at a lower level because the initial “I just got my first Pokemon so lets fight” battle would be a bit unfair.

    Reply
    • no the starting level is always 5. So what I’m guessing is that the starters will learn more moves along the line.

  3. OMFG guys. There is NO fairy-type. People are so annoying, all I see everywhere is “SO EXCITED FOR THE NEW FAIRY-TYPE HERP DERP”. Nowhere ever did Pokemon say anything about a ‘fairy-type’. Everyone is acting like it’s confirmed, WHEN IT’S 100% THEORY. THE POKEMON COMPANY NEVER SAID THE WORD FAIRY DURING THIS GENERATION. It’s so goddam annoying.

    I’ll be happy when I finally learn to talk polite. ~Dae~

    • Then what is Sylveon if the types that it was strong/weak against any of the established types?

      Also, flamboyant means

      (of a person or their behavior) Tending to attract attention because of their exuberance, confidence, and stylishness.
      (esp. of clothing) Noticeable because brightly colored, highly patterned, or unusual in style.

      not gay, as it sounded like you were trying to say. Way to be homophobic on a website administrated by a gay man, you homophobe.

    • I can only wish you see the EXTREME level of butthurt you will have when it gets confirmed! Oh what a great laugh that would be!

    • And I will be so happy when you are too embarrassed to show your face around here, “HERP DERP I CAN’T SEE OBVIOUS THINGS HERP DERP!”

    • Gravity is still a theory also. Yet I don’t myself floating in the air soon. (or rather, flying apart in tiny, tiny pieces)

  4. I love the new graphics BUT I kinda would like to see some 1080 HD, you know? Like how many handheld generations do we have to go through to see that? Beartic.

  5. What’s with that bracelet both the male character and the female character are wearing? Could it be like the poke gear or c-gear?

  6. You know I was just thinking you remember how in the old games where when you beat the other Pokemon it would just fall thru the floor I wonder if that will stil happen or will it b something like Pokemon stadium where they fall over it would be better that way what do you think
