“Pangoro is the evolved form of Pancham. It’s a cantankerous Pokémon, but it has a strong heart and doesn’t forgive those who pick on the weak.”

Inkay (Revolving Pokémon) evolves into Malamar (Overturning Pokémon).
“Transmitters above Inkay’s eyes have the ability to drain the will to fight from other Pokémon.

Team Flare is the name of the evil organization.
“A strange organization known as Team Flare has begun to make its presence known in the Kalos region. What could they be up to?”

  1. I’m just happy about the online trading, means I can access it anywhere and potentially trade decently early on for the other two starters so they can be on my team!
    I think Malimar, Spritzee and Swirlix will grow on me (but hopefully, Swirlix with evolve into some awesome pokemon)
    Team Flare…hmm hopefully they won’t predominately use Fire types and I hope that their story is intertwined with the Legendaries like N’s was

    Edit: I’m also assuming that since Sycamore is based in Luminose, and that’s where Ash’ll be starting, he’ll be important in the anime

  2. I would love to play the games without knowing the rest of the Pokémon like in Red/Blue so they’ll be more excited, but I can’t resist knowing the Pokémon because I really love the designs.

    • Im actually the total opposite. I originally thought(back when R/B came out and I was 12/13ish) that Pokemon was dumb, and didnt really care for RPGs in general. I had a subscription to Nintendo Power, which at the time was including mini walkthrough pamphlets with each issue. Out of boredom, I read through about 6 of them, looking at all the interesting creatures you could tame, and had an epiphany so to speak. Im 27 and have been an RPG/Pokemon fanatic ever since I got my hands on the first 2 games. I love seeing what the game has in it- Pokemon, things to do, new features etc- so I can IMAGINE what Im going to do when I finally get the games and play’em.

  4. After looking at the Team Flare screenshots, im really hoping for some new fossil Pokemon in this generation, also i really hope we dont have another electric and rock gym leaders, i might be ok with the rock gym farther in game, but I’ve yet to see rock type pokemon, but still not excited about electric gym -_-

  5. I’m so happy about everything released so far, I wish the were released tomorrow so I could start my Kalos adventure.

  6. Team flare looks like Team Magman -.- POKEMON would make best team but the choose team flare -.- and where’s Team water……….They could make some teams like Team X. I dont like that they want money -.- It’s better if they want to kill all the pokemon eliminate Xernea or Yvelta or something like that

    Reply

    • From the screenshot of Team Flare talking about fossils, they want to sell fossils to get money. Yes they want money, but you don’t what else they want to do with that money.

      Reply

          • I vote for a Tyrannosaurus Rex!
            It’s deserving of being a Legendary Fossil Pokémon.
            Rock/Fire-type. Three-stage evolutionary line if the T-Rex is not a Legendary.

            Edit: Fix’d.

          • Meh, then it wouldnt be any different from a normal Pokemon. Legendaries are supposed to be, as its been said about non-evolving species, complete as a Pokemon in the Pokemon world.

          • Which pic? My profile pic?
            I know, right? It’s a pic that suits me very well. I l♥ve Mewtwo!
            Always been my favorite Pokémon and always will be. Fun times using him in Super Smash Bros Melee.
            Hoping for his triumphant return in the next Super Smash Bros!
            Also… I wonder (and slightly fear) what his PokéBeach rumored other form will look like. :/

          • I hope it looks more like Mew more than her/his other form.

            EDIT: I love that last and second to last ones. They are EPIC

          • Rock/Fire? Id like to see a Rock/Dragon 3 stage T-rex line. There needs to be a fossil Dragon type anyways, its supposed to be a mythical (AKA OLD) type/species, and a fossil of one would be fantastic!

          • I would love it if the Z legendary was an DLC event fossil. That would be a twist, and be unexpected by alot of people. It could be downloaded like a normal event(except the data for the mon, sprite etc wouldnt be on the card like a normal event- so people that actually find a way to rip the data wont find it), and you could take it to the Fossil-Revival place and SR for a shiny or decent stats!

  7. I’m so effing excited for this game!!!! Heck I’ve already nicknamed some of my team members lol

    It’s looking to be one of the best Pokemon games ever!!

  9. i didn’t expect to receive this information so soon (i expected it some days later). well, pangoro, inkay and malamar kind of confirm those rumours that appeared time ago in the Pokebeach website (the names, the new evolution method for pangoro…). then, we should expect that Espurr pokemon.

    and the new features are also interesting! they make easier to play with other players, but without making it an MMO (i like to play by myself and then trade and fight with others). best thing: now you can look for pokemon in the GTS that you have not registered in the pokedex! thanks, Game Freak! but that Wonder Trade… it’s a good idea, but who would be willing to give a rare pokemon without knowing what they will receive? you could make it if you have a spare pokemon (we won’t see legendary pokemon in wonder trade, that’s my advice). finally, i would like to know a bit more about XY’s Global Link, but we’ll have to wait a bit more for it.

    • CoroCoro came out today in Japan (time difference) earlier than usual because of a holiday. Thanks to the simultaneous release, we receive the news at the same time. The source did confirm that some of the information the source leaked was fake so Nintendo wouldn’t get so mad or so the source wouldn’t get into more trouble. It’s a possibility that was one of the real leaks.

      I can imagine Wonder Trade having some problems. For example, someone who is new to the series putting up a legendary Pokemon or shiny or something rare and then getting a Lv. 1 Rattata in return. 😐 I would use it, but I wouldn’t use strong Pokemon. Maybe one that I bred, exclusive Pokemon, etc. The generation 5 Dream World will be missed by some people. I just hate that I can’t change my C-Gear. D:

      Reply

      • thanks for the info! i knew that corocoro was going to be released sooner this time, but i forgot that when i saw all the info, so i expected the official website to be updated in 15th as in the previous months, xD!
        and about Wonder Trade, you are right. i think the good idea is to give a pokemon enough rare to make someone happy, but not so much rare so you think you have made a bad deal, like breeding pokemon from previous generations or exclusives or things like that.

        Reply

      • Out of curiosity, when did MageLeeaf confirm some of his info was fake? I remember Tai La Ree claiming some of the info was fake, but WPM said Tai wasn’t related to the leaks and all he did was an attempt to draw attention away from the source when Nintendo started investigating the leaks.

  10. When you turn Inkay upside down, he looks like a fat baby with a haircut that only DreamWorks would invent for a character. When you turn Malamar upside down, he looks like a squid that’s stopped fighting the funk and is waving his hands in the air

  11. If we have to flip the 3ds around to evolve some new pokemon could they change voltobs evolution method. It kind of makes sense if they did. But I really don’t want pokemon to evolve like this if its true

    Reply

  13. I would prefer seeing all my Pokes by my side like in HG SS, except this time in 3D especially sense none can follow behind us…..buuuut were not getting any of that =/

    Reply

  14. I think Grant will be a Ground-type Gym leader, not a Rock-type. If u think about it, we’ve never had a Ground type gym and his name is more similar to “ground” than to “rock” but we’ll have to wait and see 🙂

    Edit: this is a big fail. I forgot about Giovanni and Clay ._.

    Reply

  16. This is my expectations and wanted desire for Team Flare.

    1. I want them and their whole organization plus their leader to be fashion freaks.
    2. I want them to do whatever they must to gain money so it would worthwhile to battle them and it feels like you’re actually saving lives and doing something realistic.
    3. I want their leader to be female and use Malamar.
    4. I want their organization to only have the money based goal because it seems trying to use legendaries and controlling the world is an idea that has been used too much already. Their goal can have a deeper meaning just not trying to control the world using Xerneas and Yveltal.

    • Dark type!!! Fairy-types are supposedly getting a gym on the gen it was introduced so it would be a shame if Dark-types dont considering they have been waiting since Gen 2 to get one!

      Reply

    • Well, we’ve already got a Bug-type Gym confirmed and it’ll be the first. It seems like we’ve got Rock-type and Electric-type Gyms with Grant and Clemont. PokéBeach rumors stated they’ll be a Fairy-type Gym and that it’ll be the second Gym we encounter and, if I recall correctly, the PokéBeach rumors also stated we’ll be getting a Fighting-type Gym as the fourth Gym we encounter.
      So, these five Gym types might be our official types, so far.

      I’m really hoping to finally have a Dark-type Gym available. I’d love to have a Psychic-type Gym, too.
      I think a Ghost-type Gym would be welcomed and maybe even a Steel-type Gym.

      Reply

    • We already have Bug confirmed. I’m thinking we’re getting Electric and either Dark or Rock with the new leaders.

      What I want to see most is Fairy, Dark, Psychic, and a late-game Grass gym.

      Reply

    • So I guess everyone wants a dark gym, me included so please Game Freak give us one! I also would like to see a mixed gym, like when you battle Blue back in the days of Gold&Sliver.

  19. My theory on Team Flare is this:

    The pokemon creators stated that the overarching theme for Pokemon XY is beauty. Also, I think that Team Flare really cares about looks and beauty based on how they are dressed. Therefore, I think their goal (aside from getting money) is to get rid of all of the “ugly” pokemon or change them to make them more beautiful. Also, in this game we seem to have the parallels of Fairy and Dark. Fairy could represent beauty (which could be why they might want Xerneas in Pokemon X to give life to beautiful pokemon) and Dark could represent the ugly (which could be why they might want Yveltal in Y to destroy the ugly pokemon). Then again, one grunt is shown to use a Houndour which is dark-type and yveltal itself is dark-type so capturing to destroy it would not make sense. T.T I’m thinking too much…
    Or Gamefreak could completely throw something so random and still make it work lol They always do 🙂

  20. Im buying a 3DS because if this.. my lite broke anyways so I need one… Im not getting the XL though.. I just watched the trailer above on a super small screen and it looked HD just because of that… I’ll let my hands cramp up if that’s a problem

    Reply

    • I would get XL. So much more comfortable and the larger screen actually makes the games look better IMO..even if the cells are supposedly stretched (You really can’t tell).

      Reply

      • A lot of people tell me they can tell, and they say XL feels cheaper. The XL was just a bad excuse to get more money by making people think they fixed flaws but just created new ones… I want the XL 2 to come out with TRUE corections but the original is the best for me right now

        Reply

        • There are only 2 real flaws with the original that I can see- and thats the heaviness of the unit (think DS Phat) and the terrible battery life. I havent personally held an XL yet (planning on getting one soon though), but I know that they improved the battery life in the unit. Plus, from what I have read, the screen size is a huge improvement, and coming from someone that would like to one day play 3DS games on my 40 inch, the bigger the screen the better. If you were to get the possible XY edition, youre not only getting the game installed on it, but a larger screen, better battery life, and a limited edition console. Also, just an FYI, I had to buy a 3rd party battery for my OG 3DS, which was 25 bucks IIRC, because the default battery only lasts 3 hours max without 3D on.

          Reply

          • Yeah but I wont be carrying it around outside… so battery irrelevant, Heaviness really should not bother anyone unless they have muscle issues, just sit I a position better for lifting it if a person is weak. The screen only gets bigger and that’s the only improvement next to anti glare… but they didn’t even bother to make the games properly fit the screen so it just makes the games look of lower quality. I play games for graphics as much as just playing it for fun because graphics are a HUGE part of a gaming now so it doesn’t make sense to stand up for paying more for a downgrade.. some may not find it a big downgrade but it is in fact a downgrade…. I can easily move out of light in my home for glare and 3D should look best on the original because I will be sitting still with it and see all the surroundings at once, the bigger one just gives a better illusion of there being more room in the game but im sure it will be all the same when sitting still. I have no problem buying the game separate.. and I will keep my 3DS plugged in if I have to or buy that different battery. What they need to do is Release a TRUE upgrade instead of looking for more and more money… with all that money they should be at least on playstation vitas level of graphics, the cut scenes in this game are comparable to a super old Yugioh PSP game I played.. Im a fan of Nintendo and Pokémon especially but they really need to up their stuff next system and soon! 0_0

  21. Guys, it seems we might get an early look at the first parts of the games. This is from Serebii, “It has been announced that the Pokémon Smash episode, due to air on July 21st 2013 is to feature some gameplay of Pokémon X & Y. While much of this is likely to be mirroring the information of CoroCoro, the episode has the host Akiyama playing a copy of the game borrowed from game director Junichi Masuda so has the potential to show some further footage.”

    Reply

    • Thank you for the heads up!
      EDIT: I checked the smash website and I can confirm this. It says Akiyama will capture a “new” pokemon, so it might actually be an episode worth watching.

      Reply

      • Finally, we only have about 92 days to go until the release. counting tomorrow. I hope it beats Diamond and Pearl’s world record for the most copies sold in a week. I pray that these games will break that record. We have a big day ahead of us.

        • Keep in mind the DS had a install base of 50 million, while the 3DS ‘only’ has an install base slightly above 31 million.

          Reply

  22. OK my question is “Can we customize our characters just like the ones in PSS screen, or those avatar things are just for PSS screen?”

    Reply

  23. I like the Photo Spots, might pick the female protagonist just for that feature.
    And I’m hoping GTS Negotiations are still around.
    I like all the new Pokemon, but I actually don’t like Team Flare.

    Anyway, now that Shushupu’s English name is revealed, I’m absolutely certain it has nothing to do with scrunchies, yes?

    Reply

  24. I’m just saying, there better be more Fairy types like Xerneas and less fairies like Spritzee and Swirlix.
