  1. “In Pokemon XY Institute, and large the most up-to-date information of “Pokemon X · Y!” ” – Official Site
    I don’t know what they mean by that since the episode for next week is supposed to be dealing with some wow factor (Mega Evos), so unless they’re showing Grant or Clemont I don’t know what else could be shown lol

    • Well, maybe. The one thing is Corocoro is not actually officially even out yet, but The Official Pokemon sites, Japan included, have already updated with the big news. It is possible that Smash might show some Mega related news, but, I do kinda doubt it’ll be truly NEW Mega Evolution news.

  2. If all the starters DO get a mega-evolution then it seems Blaziken might not get the spotlight like most of us think. I mean, okay maybe Fennekin has finally met her match but we don’t know for sure. In my opinion, upstaging the three starters especially Fennekin by allowing a Gen 3 starter to be disrtibuted is risky but since GF has always played it safe, it’s good to see them try something new and just as the NPC in Pokemon said, “I hate it when things change but it get’s boring when things don’t change.”

  3. Well today we do actually have hope for something new. And by new I mean footage. With these new pokemon and things that will likely be revealed on smash from Nintendo/Corocoro will be old, maybe smash will showcase new footage of these developments. Heres to hopin!

  4. “We’re not expecting much this week ”

    :O Are you sure this is true? I thought it was an X Y special this and next week or have people been lying to me again 🙁

    Reply
    • Hmm, yeah. There seem to be some miscommunitication going on. Next week should be an XY special, seeing as that is the one after the official Corocoro release. This one will probably only have some extra five second footage.

  5. Whether they talk about it this week or next, I can’t wait to see the people on Smash react to Mega Evolutions. They lost their minds when Octillery showed up in that x&y demo.

          • Just asking, since Poke’jungle is for all ages to enjoy Pokemon and I know that you have some young viewers so, are you allowed to curse and use foul language. I’m one of those people that tries to at all cost stay away from foul-mouthed people and if I had children I would never allow them to read such things or hear such words. I understand it’s part of life but I just don’t think cursing should be allowed in Poke’jungle so the site would be even cleaner and people of all ages can enjoy reading news, reading comments, posting comments, and above all should enjoy the community. I don’t care if I get over 1000 Down-votes for this but that’s my opinion.

          • It really depends on the message you are conveying. When you’re using foul language to attack someone, it surely is a no-go. However, there is a line of reason for such things. I generally accept it if means you are underlining a statement but only if you still argue rationally and if you are nice to all the others. General rule of thumb is that we are PG 13, seeing as children under that age likely don’t visit the site much and almost certainly don’t read the comments much. (technically, you have to even be age 13 and up to register for a Disqus account)

          • I understand now and it seemed I went a little overboard with my opinion. LOL. But alas, yes it does seem that way, Jordin. Although I don’t see 1st Graders in my school running around like that and saying such words. In my school running is prohibited inside, saying such words would get you expelled and owning a phone in school would get you sent to some Boarding School.

            Edit: Sorry that was meant to both Jordin and Dae. LOL. I always get this wrong and I need to really stop adding LOL to everyone of my posts. LOL 😀 Okay that will be my last LOL Okay I’m done LOL 😀

          • Funny thing is younger kids are already saying bad curse words. In my school I see 1ST GRADERS running around yelling out “Mother******” “Shut the **** up! etc. It is honestly really sad to see kids that young yelling out those words. I see them with phones that cost 500+ without a case. Why would a 1st grader need something that costs so much to break it or something? What I’m saying is that kids these days are pretty spoiled and learn these words from their older brothers/sisters, it’s inevitable, sadly..

  6. Guys! Did you hear? There’s a new type called Fairy type! Omg. What’s next!? Mega Evolutions? Pshh, as if. Can’t wait for the next surprise to come out.

  7. I thought today was the big day but to my surprise it’s next week. Everything in my life is next week. LOL. I’m hoping for some new footage at the least and mind blowing next week.

    • Yes Mega Lapras please OMG if that happens i’ll be so happy
