This post contains spoilers for Pokémon X & Pokémon Y. The comment section of this post will also contain spoilers for the upcoming games. Do NOT proceed it you wish to avoid details on the game.
We’re now exactly one week away before X & Y release globally next Saturday, and the wait is becoming unbearable. While fans are eagerly awaiting the release date to come about there’s not a huge amount of news for us to cover. However, as most fans are likely aware the final evolutions for the Kalos Starter Pokémon are now known.
While there aren’t a huge amount of details on the Pokémon we received so long awaited information…
Quilladin evolves into the Pokémon Chesnaught. As we speculatively reported back in July the Pokémon resembles a knight in some ways, and features heavy armour all over its body. It is said the armour covering the Pokémon is able to withstand the blast from a bomb. Chesnaught is Grass/Fighting type.
Braixen evolves into Delphox. The Pokémon maintains the almost magical-theme and resembles a witch of sorts. It is Fire/Psychic type and is able to generate temperatures of up to 5,400°F using its psychic powers.
Finally, but by no means least, Frogadier evolves in Greninja. Again, like we posted back in July, Greninja appears to play on a ninja theme, and looks to be an extremely capable Pokémon in battle. Greninja is a Water/Dark type Pokémon.
We’re drawing closer and closer to X & Y and our coverage could start as early as this Thursday. Some of you may noticed but we haven’t followed through with The Journey to X & Y, sadly we won’t be posting any further articles in the series, as big news is likely to hit daily now. Instead we will move articles outside of the #J2XY and continue them after the games have released.

What if.. The other legendaries are DLC? ._.
Is it finally confirmed that this region only has 70 new pokemon? I was considering purchasing this game even with the lower number of pokemon but I just want to know for sure.
Well really close to it.
I think delphox will have a male and female version with the male one looking more well manly
those are fake just so you know they said that (nintendo) and if they were i would stop playing pokemon they look horrible and nothing like the starters
They are very much real as proven by multiple leakers who have posted countless pictures and videos of them ingame.
What do you guys think of this?
Greninja should have been Water/Fighting and Chesnaught should have been Grass/Steel…
I’m new here, can anyone give me a list of all the new pokemon?
FUCK Chesnaught Is Going to Have a shitload of Weaknesses Man I was looking forward to Choose It. But now im going with Froakie Since they are going to give a torchic 😀
Chesnaught: “The armor covering the Pokemon is able to withstand the blast from a bomb.”
