Breaking news! A new Pokémon XY Nintendo Direct is set to air tomorrow at 4am Pacific / 7am Eastern / 12pm UK time/ 1pm Mainland Europe. An English version has been confirmed for both the UK and the US. Stay tuned for our live coverage tomorrow!
Happy that we will finally get some news? What could it be? It’s still quite a few days before Corocoro hits and maybe they’ll want to prevent early leaks by revealing it all themselves? Here’s me hoping for an official Orot reveal, along with some new Mega Pokémon and maybe a totally new mechanic!
~Daedardus~
I think we will get all those pokes that were predicted alongside dedenee and Horubi 🙂
Yay! Left class sick and that made me diisappointed, but now I’m excited and feeling better!
All aboard the hype train….my body is Reggie!!!
Well im hoping u can import Pokemon anytime during ur journey i hate waiting to import my level 5 mudkip i wanna be able to train my Pokemon together
omg, i want to import my level 5 mudkip (with mud bomb) too, also my level 5 deino (with head smash). I went through a lot to breed for those moves and I want to put them into use.
YES, YES, 100% YES!!!!
I don’t know about you guys, but If its anything like the first nintendo direct back in January that took us completely by surprise, I really hope they completely surprise us and not show us something we expect (like starter evos or more mega evos) because that’s not really a surprise. I’m hoping they reveal a new mechanic that is as game changing as mega evolutions.
I don’t get why everyone thinks the starter evolutions are likely to be revealed Oo I know that many people wish to know them, but it is very unlikely for them to be revealed! So, for me it would be a pleasant surprise if they’d reveal them by tomorrow. Sadly, experience shows that they probably won’t reveal them until next month, if at all.
It’s because in every generation before X and Y, starter evos were released on corocoro the month before the release of the game, that’s why people expect it…history repeats. But I really want a surprise…not evos or mega evos or new pokemon….something different, novel, mind bending, shocking…I may not like it at first, but my heart is ready….bring on the defibrillator
That’s new to me Oo Afaik they only revealed them in fifth gen three days before the actual release. Every other gen, they didn’t show them.
In DPPt they showed the final evos waay before the release of the game. It was on the Japanese website. I was there, I know. I’m not sure if it was a month before but I remember the japanese website having them before the release of the game next to the pixie trios.
I was there too, just got a pretty bad memory. I’ll just look it up, but I’m sure they weren’t shown Oo
They just showed Torterra, Infernape, and Empoleon. They never showcased the 1st evolutions (grotle etc.)
Do you have any links to archived news items revealing them? As far as I can remember, and see from checking Serebii’s archives, the Gen 4 Starter evos weren’t revealed until the game hit the market. Hell, the Starters themselves weren’t revealed til August.
I recall that it wasn’t on corocoro but only on the official japanese pokemon website, but unfortunately you can’t see that anymore…
I searched news archives, but what you say just isn’t true. They only revealed the first evolution of the fifth gen starters. I guess that was only because they were leaked beforehand. But for fourth gen, only the first stages (Piplup and so on) were shown. Sorry, you’re wrong =( And “you can’t see anymore” can’t be true, because the news article on Pokémon fan sites aren’t deleated 😉
Um… he just admitted he was wrong…
Just reveal new Pokemon to us and info about the games, no mega evolutions for me. I want starter evo’s and at least 5+ brand new Pokemon
NOOOOO, 12pm.
School is starting tomorrow and it looks like I’m gonna miss the direct.
Just one more year and I’m out of there.
Maybe I’ll watch it afterwards, but by then my friend will have found out all the new stuff and told me.
Life is cruel.
The second ever ‘Pokémon Direct’ eh? Sounds promising. The first one unleashed the news of 6th gen a year before most predicted it, hopefully this ‘sequel’ will follow suit in awesomeness!
I don’t think Nintendo will spoil anything important on a direct.. so, the Japanese DS bundle?
I’m pretty sure whatever they reveal tomorrow will more or less be in the Corocoro scans and/or Morrimoto presentation on Smash. That being said, I espect to see the revamped Type chart and a 2 to 4 new Pokemon.
what time will direct be in the uk?
12PM BST
My hopes are high for some fairly big news. I have a feeling that we will see X & Y Special Edition XLs announced for territories outside of Japan, which is good news for me!
I could care less about the new XLs. I have one already. Why would I want another one?
Because moving doesn’t have a 3DS yet.
I never said Moving wouldn’t want one. I just said I didn’t. I also said why would I care? Just expressing an opinion.
Just because you don’t need them doesn’t mean they can’t announce them in the Direct 😉
Is this, or is this not, an open forum/comment section where an expression of opinion is not only allowed but encouraged? I didn’t say it wasn’t allowed to be announced, only said that I didn’t care whether it was announced or not.
Yes. A discussion also goes both ways.
Chill out. Daedardus is sassy, get used to it.
Bind him and call the torch wielding mob!! 😛
in the same boat. dont have a 3DS, rather save money on a bundle.
Also, it’s I couldn’t care less. If you could care less that means you could care a lot or almost nothing at all or everything in between. 🙂
Wow. Is this a dictionary reading and grammar class? I didn’t ask to be criticised. If it makes you happy, I couldN’T care less. Someone caught a whiff of the power powder.
Not criticising you. No need to take it personal.
I’m on your side, amber. I view spelling nazis as cyber bullies and I think Daedardus just violated his own guidelines. >.<
This English lesson is off topic and irrelevant to the discussion thus instant ban for you :P. Should have read the community guidelines LOL no need to be so patronizing with your replies people ARE allowed opinions you know 😉
I wasn’t trying to be patronising. However, I still have this video in my mind for like forever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=om7O0MFkmpw
I enjoyed that as an American citizen and enjoy British people patronizing my English and slang.
The system is a bundle! It for people don’t own a system and want X & Y to get it all together! 🙂
Because not everyone has an XL, meaning people other than you will buy it. Nintendo’s marketing decisions do not revolve around you.
This is about what he wants, why are you centering the issue around yourself?
I didn’t even think of that, I’m still really hoping to see that gold 3DS XL bundle stateside.
When I read your post, I thought it said “FAIRY big news”. XD And I was hoping for them to reveal the fairy type chart.
You never know! 😉
Yay. So excited :3
So it’s 1pm in England ? Woop!
Last time I checked England was part of the UK and not Mainland Europe.
12:00 😛
I fail at time-zones an whatnot haha
Maybe we will get to see the trainer customization in action along with some more new stuff.
Yes! I would love to see how it works! I’m thinking it would be similar to Dragon Quest customization but more involved!
Wow another Pokemon Direct! I’m not sure what they might say about X and Y but I’m almost positive they’ll talk about that Pokemon Wii U game.
it’s mainly focused on x and y
It could be a final core game mechanic that is exclusive to Pokémon X & Y, there is one final tab on the official website that is currently still labelled “???”
That was said a few hours ago. We know since months that this will be “Strategy”. Sorry!
Has there been an official reveal of Mega Kangaskhan I mean outside tournament?
Afaik not.
is it possible they just officially reveal it tomorrow
Everything is possible 🙂 I guess it’s quite probably, but you never know ^^
I’m hoping for something new, it just seems like something they could use to pull a fast one on us, either that or officially reveal Orotto
No. It has not been shown passed that point!
I mean as much as I hope it’s not, we could just get a official reveal for it
Maybe in this X & Y Direct! 😀
It had better be something rather large and not just an Orotto reveal… because, the IPC would go raging poop! I’d love to see some evolutions and maybe some new basics. Really excited for this! 17 hrs to go!
This is a stupid question, but I’m curious; To Whom are you referring to as IPC?
A quick guess: Internet Pokémon Community.
Thank you, I’m such a dodo bird or Doduo.
Hehe yeah. IWC = Internet Wrestling Community, IPC = Internet Pokemon Community 😀
I hope stupid 4 year olds like Afuck wont comment on this artic-L.
I don’t know if it’d warrant a Pokémon Direct, but I’d love for Nintendo to announce either some Pokémon-themed 2DS systems, or 2DS+XY bundles. Red and blue may make sense as “base” colors, but they’re pretty boring…
i rather a 3ds bundle as i don’t have one yet but want one lol
The 2DS was revealed without a nintendo direct, so I highly doubt they would reveal promotional systems. I think it will be very game centric.
Character customization. It’s such an overlooked feature since the reveal of mega-evolutions.
We present you: Mega Customization!
That would certainly be unexpected, which seems to be the theme this generation… I like it!
LOL!!!
Wow 4am Pacific I’ll try to either stay up late or wake up early.
Go to bed early. Set alarm at 3.30 am. Go back to sleep at 5 am 🙂
Yea I’ll wake up early since I have an appointment at 2:00 pm
I hope they’ll reveal the so expected Pokémon WiiU game!
But it’s a Pokemon X and Y specific Nintendo Direct.
Oh yeah, you’re right! I hadn’t realized that! 😛
I still would like know more about the Wii U game.
I hope to see Pokemon X and Y take advantage of street pass and bring back secret bases. I also would like to see an optional league champion challenger mode via street pass/ spot pass.
It’s a X & Y Direct.
on’t know the exact specifics, but from what I’ve heard from a source, this Direct will be divided into segments much like the Wonderful 101 Direct was…
* Segment on the Kalos Region, including new Methods of Travel and Fairy Type.
* Segment on Mega Evolutions and Super Training.
* Segment on Pokemon-Amie and something called “Poke-On-Stage”
* Segment on PSS and Wi-Fi Features.
* New Trailer
Finally, they’re going to show a new CG trailer for an untitled Wii-U game, presumably the one seen at the Pokemon Game Show.
My source adds that Mega Kangaskhan will be officially shown (as in getting Sugimori Art), as will Mega Scizor, Mega Raichu, and Mega Sableye. They are also revealing “Orotto” finally, a new monkey-like Pokemon, and Swirlix and Spritzee’s evolutions, but there will be a few New Pokemon which will quickly appear in the trailer as well but won’t be focused on beyond simply appearing in game-play.
Wow Thanks.
I hope this is true because it’s nice, but doesn’t spoil much.
That is pretty specific…
I do think it will be like the Wonderful 101 Direct.
Mega Scizor scares me……
Ooh! Thanks! ;D / Quite Specific!
More monkeys? Really?
I hope it’s “monkey-like” and not “monkey”
Lol. Either way. We have three elemental monkeys and their evolutions and the Aipom and Ambipom. That’s eight monkeys. How about a mix between a monkey and and something else? It’d still be mokey-like, but not completely.
Don’t forget Monkey….err I mean MAnkey.
Should I also add Primape? Lol.
I was thinking something like a lemur.
Great minds think alike!
You forget Chimchar and his evolution line.
We have plenty of monkeys. I don’t really want another monkey, but I guess if they can make it look interesting then I’m all for it.
I would like a Gorilla.
Gah! Too many I can’t count! Isn’t Slaking a gorilla? I was to put that in my comment but I wasn’t sure if was or not.
I thought that it was a sloth? At least Slakoth is.
A sloth+gorilla=slothorilla?
Slakoth(Sloth) + maybe the King in Kingkong. Makes it Slaking I guess. 🙂
I’m pretty excited and hopeful. I’m grateful with any new news. Of course I’m hoping for the starter evolutions, because then I can finally decide what starter I will choose.
I expect at least 5 pokemon to be revealed. Maybe some other legendary’s?
