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.

What’s up with the avatar problem?
#AvatarsGoneMissing
Does anyone have any disappointments about X and Y?
Other than not fully in 3D, nope. Too hyped to be let down by anything, even if some of the game remains 2D.
Isn’t that just for the demos?
No, the overworld map is not 3D.
When was that revealed?
#SoBehind
In the commercial it states that the game is 2D with some 3D.
Aww, you’ve gotta be kidding me! GF spends SO much time preparing a WORLDWIDE release on the highly anticipated 3DS but they’re so lazy they can’t interpret the game in all 3D? What lazy asses!
Those lazy bastards should have just made the rest of the world wait a year or so to get the international release, right?
Yeah! Then Japanese leakers would troll the games 4 us XD
In all seriousness, this is a letdown. X/Y: 9/10
You were serious? Wow, I thought you were joking?
Are you seriously being serious (wait wut)
What you just said, is the one thing that keeps whispering at the back of my mind and keeps on bringing me down everytime I try to get excited about X and Y.
Well, I’m just giving my point, like it or not. :
It really isn’t a problem. A large majority of the game is still in 3D, such as cut scenes, battles, and special occasions. The only thing not is the overworld. I’m curious to see how they do it. Demo players say that the 3D is very well done. It is possible the problem is with the frame-rate, as the 3D already drops the quality of attacks with a lot going on.
I know, and I always keep telling myself that. But I have a lots of other 3DS games, which I love to use the 3D effect all the time. It feels really weird playing those games without 3D. I’m just really disappointed that I won’t be able to immerse myself like I did those games. I’m easily betting 99% of the pokemon community doesn’t give 2 cents about the 3D effect, but I really love the effect…..
Ah see I never use the 3D. It gives me headaches and drains the battery so I never saw a use for it. Not to mention, I can’t see the game as well when it is in 3D…
I think you’ll still find yourself immersed.
I have played 3DS games from 7 AM to 12 AM non-stop with the charger attached, max 3D. I never get any headaches. I don’t know why so many people do. Do you move the 3DS around?
It hurts my eyes after a while.
Me too that’s the only thing that happens to me.
(replied)
Some kids are not very calm so I can imagine the 3D effect would hurt.
Ahhh….I see!!!! So they figet with the 3DS a lot and never hold it perfectly still at the sweet spot. That makes sense.
No. Some people’s eyes are just not adjusted to handle such sensitivity, which proceeds to give them headaches. I get it less often than, say, watching a 3D movie. But my vision gets blurry, and I keep straining to see clearer, which makes my head hurt.
Also it was confirmed a long time ago by the Japan Official Website. Only battles, cut scenes, and special occasions are in 3D.
Looking on the positive side the graphics looks much better because 3D causes frame rate drops!
Oh. Wow. X/Y will be a large letdown as far as 3D, but I never use it anyways, but for the people who do, that is BS.
That’s why they made the 2DS and it is released on the same day.
Lots of people get headaches, nausea, etc. using 3D that has never happened to me though so I can’t tell you what it feels like first hand.
I’m okay with battles since they look so awesome!! 😀 The fact that Game Freak has made this amazing game with brand new things no 3D over world is just a tiny little thing in my opinion.
Eh people can get over it.
Keep in mind that international releases are REALLY HARD.
You might think the feature of selecting multiple languages is pretty simple right?
This is actually a HUGE amount of pain in the ass coding, where options would have to literally replace all the text in the entire game. And that’s just one feature.
Compared to everything else in the game, no 3D overworlds doesn’t really take away much.
I’m saying for people who are super hyped about the WHOLE games being in 3D, it’s a letdown. Some may be thinking if they didn’t make the whole game in 3D, why didn’t they just make it for DS? I don’t know, and my opinions are at crossroads now.
There is more to the 3DS than the 3D. People don’t seem to realize how good the 3DS really is. It’s no Vita, but it is capable of quite a lot.
For one, the WiFi is considerably stronger and better. GF wanted a more connected Pokemon game and the 3DS could handle it.
For two, the DS is not as powerful as the 3DS. To give a perspective, the DS had the power of a PS1…barely. The 3DS…has the power of a PS2. Huge difference there. For as much as GF wanted to do with this game, the 3DS was the obvious choice.
For three, the 3DS is a highly marketed product. It is the top selling game unit on the market right now. Why put a highly anticipated and desired game on a dying system?
For four, the 3D is still there. It’s only the map that lacks it most likely due to frame-rate reasons. Complaining about the WHOLE game not being in 3D is grasping for straws.
Five, they are apparently updating friend codes to instead be account based and can most likely cross with the Wii U. Not only can you cross buy but most likely games will be connected in the future between the 3DS and Wii U.
Six, apps and stuff, like Pokemon Bank as an example.
See? Lots of reasons to why the 3DS is a logical choice, besides just the 3D.
None so far.
Wait, actually, yeah. I don’t like the Fairy type chart.
What don’t you like about it?
Fire resists it and Grass doesn’t lol.
^This too.
Yeah, I thought at first also, but now that grass types are immune to spore, sleep powder, poison power and stun spore, I have no complaints
Meh, that’s not enough.
We’ll have to make do with what we have.
True, I wanted flying to no longer resist grass
Grass has too many weaknesses as a stand alone type (5 total) I’m not sure if it ties with another pure type with most weaknesses. Just because it’s Grass-type doesn’t mean a third of the types have to walk on it.
^This coming from a Water-type, weak to Grass.
It’s complete BS. I love the Grass type.
*Cough* Swapnote *cough*
Replied 🙂
Replied back 😀
Same!
Replied ^.^
I know, I have many Grass-types that I love, like Roserade, Tropius, Whimsicott, and Meganium, among many others.
Rock types are kind of abused too.
They should just give every grass type pokemon Earth Power like they did Ice Beam to water types and Solarbeam to fire types
I wish Sceptile had Earth Power…with its Special Attack and all =/
Or Rock-type moves, that covers everything except Poison-types.
Now that you mentioned it, Ice could of had the potential to resist Fairy, I mean, Ice only resists itself.
I was really hoping they’d make some types more balanced that don’t get enough, like grass, bug and ice. Well they did make poison and steel better.
If you asked me when Megas or Fairies were released, I;d say yep. But now, I have no disappointments. I might have some, but right now, a few small disappointments is nothing compared to what I like about this game.
Dedenne.
8D Wait for it…
I’ll defend you!
Go, Steelix! Use Iron Tail on the rabid thing!
• • •
All clear! No need to thank me, good citizen.
Just doin’ my job. *whistles*
I’m disappointed they haven’t hinted at a second Eeveelution. At all!
C’mon, Game Freak! Please keep the tradition of adding in two Eeveelutions at a time. Dragon-type-eon needs to officially be shown to the world!
If not… disappoint. :[
Yup dragon is the last “special” type eevee left, I agree
“Draconeon” will be as great as the taste of Like-A-Boss Chips dipped in Awesome Sauce.
Drakeon. GameFreak, please let this be real!
Xerneas being mono-typed. If it was Fairy/Grass, It would have fair type advantages against Yveltal (One type is super effective against the opponent and the other is not very effective).
Also, Poison still isn’t super effective against Water and Grass should have been resistant to Fairy.
Is anyone else seeing the Pokemon X & Y commercial EVERYWHERE now? It’s on Comedy Central, [Adult Swim] and other channels. It seems like every commercial break I see it.
They have the money to advertise on every channel (something GTA doesn’t. I have never seen a commercial in my life for it) I’m glad they have realized who their real audience is XD
Wow, thanks for breaking the silence in PJ! And yeah, it’s a bit wierd. However…
#GTAVFTW!!!
MARKETING
IT DOES AMAZING THINGS
GTA5 still sold ridiculously.
X & Y will sell even better though 😉
Wait X and Y commercials on ADULT SWIM????? WAT???
Why do people assume 9 year olds do not watch Adult Swim.
The same reason why people assume only 9 year olds play pokemon, I guess.
Wide spread advertising.
Yup I have seen it like 5 times in a span of 3 days.
24 DAYS TILL X/Y!!!
Announcer: And now back to Dicie doing some F—ing HOMEWORK.
Dicie: FML.
Announcer: Tune in next time after DICIE FINISHES HIS GODDAMN HOMEWORK.
#America’s Got Talent Finale 2nite?
Announcer: KID GET BACK TO UR DAMN HW OR I’M TELLIN MAMA MEGAXATU
Dicie: Okay, okay, sheesh.
MEGAXATU: IS THERE A PROBLEM IN HERE????
Dicie: No, ma, I’m fine. Just doing Homework… (heh, heh.)
MEGAXATU: U BETTER BE.
I wanna try predicting the future correctly! The winner is…the one in the middle. There are three finalists right? I don’t watch this show.
Ugh. Just check Wikipedia, they’re a good source (not).
Hush little Dicie,
Go hit the hay,
Dream of many battles
And catching Dedenne.
You made my day. I <3 you for that. 😀
Thank you! MegaXatu should sing it every night until October 12.
Ha, yeah!
This post=tears of laughter.
Not sure if just me, can anybody else see other avatars? I can’t.
I totally thought it was my computer. Glad I’m not the only one.
Glad it’s not my computer either. I was running scans just to see if there were any problems, but nada lol.
Yes I can.
That’s what I was saying, it’s wierd.
I can, but you’re not the only one who can’t see them, something weird is going on.
I’m Missingno. avatars, until I click “Newest”. -_-
Same exact way for me. I refresh and it’s on “Best” rating. I then click “Newest” and every avatar is blank or says “Avatar”
At first, then I just refreshed the page and everything was fine
I’m taking a screenshot now, and I replied 🙂
Got it 😀
Now I can XD
Kenichi Ebina won America’s Got Talent… Anyone care…? No…
SEGA bought Atlas.
Considerably bigger and more depressing news.
You’re kidding! D:
(confused)
NOPE.
And Sega admitted they are having Atlus ONLY MAKE IOS GAMES.
*sadface*
So no more SMT: DS?
Whatever they do I don’t imagine it’ll be international. D=
what about SMT X Fire Emblem on Wii U, I’m excited about that?
Do you just wish Atlus was bought by Nintendo or something?
Not really I want them to do their own thing
Too bad Sega owns them now.
I personally think Sega is WAAAY worse than Nintendo
No doubt about that.
Wii Sports on Wii U with ONLINE MULTIPLAYER
Uh.
Persona in the next All Stars Racing!
For IOS!
What???? how odd
Uhh..
They make the Persona series, among other great niche titles.
They were just bought out by the one company that refuses to localize games from Japan.
Make the connection?
Is it that Kenichi Ebina is Japanese? XD
Yeah I was pretty depressed about that also.
(Refresh if you don’t see picture)
OMG!!! I SEE IT!!!
I don’t see the picture I posted…
I refreshed, can’t see any picture.
Me too I should link it.
Here’s the link for the picture~
http://imgur.com/lJuCYuh
I see it.
>_> I’m not having any problems. Maybe it’s the browser? I use Chrome.
I use Chrome too. I also tried Internet Explorer. Same thing, no avatars, no picture.
I think it may have to do with Disqus and I replied~
I’m Disqusted.
Lets Disquss this dilemma!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8X_Ot0k4XJc
Oh, thank God. I thought it was just me.
Was gettin’ kinda frustrating. Kept refreshing in hope of avatars.
I use Chrome too. Maybe it’s Disqus itself?
But I’m having no issue.
Opera for me
Guess what day it is!? Guess what day it is!
Camerupt Day!
WoOt WoOt!
You mean HoOt HoOt!
Oh god I love you! hahahaha I also love that commrcial
It seems as though there is an “XY1012” leaker out there…
I may be wrong, but something like that was mentioned somewhere. Gotta research.
#TrollBusters
Bring me Peter Pan…..I mean the leaker
I dunno the facts yet, but he is somewhere. (searches 4chan forums)
It’s fake. We’ve already seen us skating early in the game. Plus Korrina’s gym puzzle involves the roller skates.
Oh, really? Well that proves that wrong.
“Hi everyone, I am a play tester for Pokemon XY” = LIAR. The Pokebeach Leaker didn’t even introduce himself to the world, yet practically all of his information has been confirmed to be true.
I remember when IAMTHELEAKER said that Mawile and Sableye received location evolutions. Ahh ha ha…………..*shakes head* nooooooooo
So.
MH sold 2 million in FOUR DAYS.
The 3DS is at almost at 300k for the week.
…think Pokemon can top that?
(2 million in four days is RE-GODDAMN-DICULOUS)
I can. It is totally possible for the Pokemon Series. I’m going to be a day one buyer for X & Y 😀
I’m going to be a first in line buyer xD
Hell yeah gonna camp outside.
I’m actually going to wake up like an hour before it opens and I’m going to be the first one there! 😀 It’s also the first time I camp-out for something.
I’m gonna be a first minute the store opens buyer 😀
While everyone is hyped about GTA5, I’m really hoping that X and Y sell dramatically better, proving that Pokemon is the best game of all time.
Considering it is a world wide release, most likely. GTA5 sold ridiculously but it’s no Pokemon.
Picture of the Day:

WHO HATES DEDENNE?? MOFOS, THAT’S WHO.
MEEEEE.
<3
Some marked Spritzee, Fennekin and its evo, and Amaura as Xs
………
They will pay.
They will not live.
They will have no mercy.
Oh, that pic is gone. It’s racist to the community of Dedenne lovers. (and others)
It’s just wrong.
And also marks them for my death list.
XDD
Just saw the X & Y commercial on [Adult Swim] again!

LOLXD
Me too!!
it would be interesting if we could get the clothes team flare wears in the game
I would like to wear clothes from past protagonists like Red. There was a girl dressed like Lyra in the trailer 😀
or we could get some the outfits the past antagonists had
Maybe we could dress up like one of the Team Flare grunts to find out what they are doing as part of the story? Like in HG/SS!
Bye everyone! Goodnight!
23 days, 1 hour, 33 minutes, 10 seconds until X & Y!!!
Goodnight!
Goodnight and I replied 🙂
Night! 😀
I’M CALLING IT: DIANTHA FOR LEADER OF TEAM FLARE
BONNIE: CHAMPION
Shes like 5
Not true.
The lil girl
i know, it wasnt confirmed (BOOM)
actually there is a guy as the leader of team flare
That big guy?
We don’t really know if Xerosic is the leader though.
in that one trailer about the starter evos. it looked like u were fighting him as the final is boss in his hide out
Hi everybody! I’m Archeops127 (obviously) I’m somewhat new to the community and I’ve finally worked up the courage to join the site. I have joined Mt. Moon, though, so you might recognize me from there 🙂 I hope to have a fun time here for a very long time. P.S. The community here is the BEST
Hiya! Welcome.
I’m totally not weird in any way
Ha ha. Ha. Ha.
Anyways
P.S. I agree! 😀
Hi there!
Welcome to the community Archeops! May your time here be a millennium of fun.
Hi there 😉
Thanks guys! 😀
Hi I’m also new but I just more sneaked my way in with no one noticing :3 anyway enjoy the site!
Well, here’s a warm welcome for you 😀
A warm welcome? Does it come with darumaka droppings?
….Dangit, you discovered my secret. >.<
Now that’s some hot s***.
Welcome too!
Welcome!
Yes, you friended me on there! Welcome! 😀
This might be a little off topic, but is anyone else having a tough time deciding a good and balanced team for Pokemon X?
I’ve found my choices to be quite balanced, but it depends on your preferences.
I think it’s because my favorite pokemon all have MegaEvo’s 🙁
Well kinda I mean you have to choose between your favorites and balance I’m going with chespin torchic and squrtile for an okay balance.
no
Well I’ve gotta go to bed now, so bye for now
Archeops127 used Goodbye!
It was Super Emotional!
M. Night Shamalyn plot twist: The team Flare leader is BONNIE. The champion is your MOM. The whole time, you were actually IN A COMA. Team Flare ISN’T EVIL, the JUST LIKE STYLE.
hi
ignore this
No thanks
I’m playing some Explorers of Sky right now. I just haven’t found time to play Pokemon recently with high school.
Good choice of game!
Just defeated Grovyle for the first time! 😀
I’m so bad at the game I haven’t been able to get past the sand dungeon. 😛
I was struggling with the sand cave forever and I just came back to it today and did it first try. I guess time does heal!
I’m just not good at PMD games. I beat PMD Gates to Infinity. Maybe that’s because I felt very encouraged to beat the game and its plot felt very close to home… The credit scene made me cry non-manly tears of sadness ;_;
Never played Gates to Infinity, but I may pick it up sometime in the future.
It’s a little bit easier than the others,but it’s a masterpiece for the truly heartbreaking plot and well-devoloped characters.Its a buy for sure!
I was like that too, except at random places. But then, the more I played it and gained experience, the easier it became beating it over and over (I played that game so many times)
The Monster Houses are absolutely terrible.
Sad part is you can tell when one is around by the amount of items in a room but you end up forgeting and make a mad dash for the items >. <
It’s like, ‘FREE ITEMS’
*It’s a monster house*
….FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Story of my life. ..
does anyone want to trade friend codes on 3ds
nobody?
Closer to the time, there’ll be a post about FCs so it doesn’t spam topics…
*sigh* unfortunately, there’s always spam even though everyone’s been warned
I just realized, I need to find time to go to Gamestop and get my Shiny Palkias before it’s too late!
I like how it was plural.
Well I have BW and B2W2, so it would be 4 Palkias 😀
Well, I’m gonna go sleep and dream of having Kalos Pokemon and X and Y before I awake to the harsh reality of it not being in the my hands yet.
(By the way, 23 days! :D)
