New Pokémon X & Y Trailer on Japanese eShop

The above trailer doesn’t have anything super new, but does have some extended shots of Kalos, battles, and trainer customization that are worth taking a look at 🙂 Can’t wait for October 12th! There is one new Fairy-type move revealed called Frolic which Marill uses.

  1. Oorotto…why won’t GF tell us about you? Did you do something wrong? >.<
    But seriously, this makes me not want to wait. I need it NOW!
    We finally saw the player character in other clothes other than default (which still looks awesome, perfected)
    Marill used a new Fairy move, making us remember that it is, indeed, a Fairy now.
    And I think, in the Oorotto horde battle, that Lava Plume (or Eruption….I dunno) is super effective on it. But that could just be me. The sound is sorta similar to the super effective ones with the Fairy and Dragon clips.
    Overall, I want a localized trailer, so I could scream to the world that I need this game now more than ever.

    • If it’s super effective, it being Part Grass, and not part rock at the same time is pretty much confirmed. *thus it being in horde battles with sudowoodo is basically a huge coincidence, or they are paired due to being of similar strength, like Mlitank and Tauros. I read elsewhere that there is a fight with Mega Blaziken and Orotto, and it appeared to do super effective damage. So…

      Grass/Ghost or Grass/Dark? My Money is still on Grass/Ghost.

      • Hmm, I would be fine with either. But I prefer Grass/Ghost. It has the whole rotting/ghosty feel to it. It’s more of a decaying tree. Which is why I don’t agree with it being a Sudowoodo evo. But either way, I wouldn’t be too upset either.

        • Well, it is weak to fire, meaning it isn’t part rock, so I don’t see anyway it is an evolution of Sudowoodo. Besides, I would find it questionable for them to pair them together if Orotto was meant to evolve from Sudowoodo, meaning it would be more powerful. I’m pretty sure Horde battles will probably have Pokemon of similar stats be selected for them… which means that Orotto’s stats will probably be a bit on the low side.

    • I agree. That definitely sounds like super effective sound. And I agree with Sable below too.. Grass/Dark probably?

      Still, I guess the “major attack received sound” takes precedence in horde battle.

  2. Why does the music sound like the gym leader theme that was revealed by Masuda in VGC world championchips??????? O_O

    OH god it IS the gym leader theme!!!!!

  3. Everyone’s hyped for mega evolutions, starter evos, character customization, Team Flare, and I’m just sitting here waiting for Oorotto’s english name

  4. Who was it that asked if we would have to use preset sets of clothes? I think it was a female poster..

    Anyway, it seems we can mix them up a bit at least. That’s great news.

    Reply
    • They seemed to say that on the main site well enough anyways, saying we had presets, but that sounding like something we could use if we wanted. Besides, some of the costumes they were showing off really didn’t look like presets XD The question I would have is if presets can be broken apart, or if they HAVE to be worn in that set up and can’t wear pieces individually.

      Reply
        • Hopefully. I can imagine wanting to take pieces from each. Like for instance, outfits based on past protagonists, being able to mix those. *and I want confirmation we can remove the hat*

          Reply
          • Either way, that’s waaay more customization than I expected. Shoes and socks?! Wow, Game Freak!
            Thanks for not skimping us! Now, about that eye color…

          • No pantsu customization, but I think hair color is changeable.
            When you start your journey, you can choose your skin tone, which comes with a standard hair color: fair skin & blonde, peach skin & brunette, tan skin & brunette. However, in the PSS you clearly see some mix ups like tan skin and blonde.
            I want crazy anime hair color. Gimme purple or green! >:|

        • You know, it reminds me that someone asked the other day if we were going to be able to actually see the outfits on the OW, of it was only for the PSS. I didn’t see anyway they would give us customization and not let us SEE our customization, but at the least, we have 100% confirmation that yes, our updated outfits DO translate to use running around.

  5. Rock Smash boulders return! When you’re about to face off against the Team Flare Grunt, I can see a rock with cracks on it! 😀

  6. Once again…could we be seeing an Oorotto reveal soon? I mean, it’s so hidden that I keep forgetting about it when thinking about Kalos Pokemon. That, and Mega Kangaskhan.

    Reply
    • Well, someone pointed it out, but there is a boulder with cracks right next to the Team Flare Grunt (2:57). So maybe those are the Strength boulders? So maybe Strength will no longer be a HM, since Rhyhorn will get rid of bigger boulders. I say this because in 5th gen, the Strength boulders were so much bigger than the Rock Smash boulders.

    • Yeah, ghost doesn’t resist Fairy, so they have a weakness now. It will prevent any and all Wonder Guard hacking now, nothing can have it and be immune to direct damage.

      Reply
        • Yeah, just wait and see.
          I predict that we will soon have our own personal Pokemon Bank Servers/Apps.. and “we” will simply upload there, and take out in the game.

          Reply
          • Who knows. Hacked Pokemon may be unable to work in online play at all, depending on how they have it set up. We honestly need to see if ‘legit’ hacked Pokemon can get through or not, or if they will be caught and sent back. If they are caught, I think that’ll be great news personally. Because to stop the perfect 31 IVs that were gotten outside of breeding for them. Which, I’ve been trying for that, but I haven’t gotten it yet. I’ve gotten close though, I have a female shinx with max IVs in everything but Defense and Special Defense.

          • ** I would love for the 31 IV system to go away.. EVs is more than enough (along with sets and natures). I mean, it adds nothing, except for disadvantage.

          • YES, I would be delighted for IVs to go away, so I don’t have to SR, breed, or RNG for good IVs. If pokemon need unique personalities, just give each of them a unique description that doesn’t affect stats

          • Exactly!! Something different, for collecting purposes! I mean, we have enough with Shiny-breeding xD No need to make us spend our lives on hidden numbers. Quite sure no one really likes them.

            AH! But Hidden Power is affected by it, ne? Crap..

          • Sable, why are you so quick to think of all unthinkable stuff? xD But yeah!! It would make sense for them to do a new way to get it. Or they will simply lessen the range and include Fairy (instead of 30-70, they might change it to 50-70)

          • Honestly, I wouldn’t mind this too much… Mostly because I bred a Shiny Charizard, but he got what he got stat wise, and it’s not that high.

          • Yeah I have a whole box of shiny RNGed pokemon also. But I really feel that IVs are just unnessesary if there are EVs. Hidden Power could just be customizable via an NPC (*dreams).

          • Create 2 pokebank accounts (while they are free). Start a new file (or even buy 2 cartridges) and give it a try.. I definitely see people doing it. But as soon as one does it, we will all probably hear about it!

            I don’t want to lose my lone-RNGd Durant 🙁

          • I was wondering if I’d be able to transfer my RNG’d mons! I believe it will be likely, as they don’t have impossible stats and abilities like hacked pokemon.

        • Yeah, but give it Wonder Guard, and it would still be weak to Ground. It has to have an ability to have immunity. Spiritomb and Sableye didn’t.

  7. The best part of that trailer was Marill ripping into Haxorus. That must have done about 55% of Haxorus’ HP, which means that when Azumarill gets it, it should OHKO it (I’m not doing calculations, it’s just a guess). And it’ll do even more if he didn’t have Huge Power (I’m sure he did though)! It’ll be great seeing my lovable Aqua-Rabbit wreck some of the opponent’s Pokémon!

  8. I loved Yveltal at the beginning! I think it is going to be my new favorite legendary Pokémon. I wonder how exp. points from horde battles will be counted. If it is counted as five Pokémon battles that would be great! It would make leveling up Pokémon far easier, but I guess that’d depend on how often horde battles can be encountered. I also love Garchomp’s mega evolution, its jaws make it look really evil and at the same time kind of serious.
