New Pokémon
Notes: The image above was not made by me. It came from either 4chan’s /vp/ board or Reddit. Props to the creator, it is very well done.
More new Pokémon…?
Currently there are several Mega Stones that have been found, but the Pokémon has not: Druddigon, Heracross, and Galvantula. Profilic Pokémon Black & White leaker “Hiro” also said that Scizor would be getting one too. A legendary trio could also surface in Kalos as well as unseen downloadable Legendaries.
What do you think? Are you OK with the smaller number of “new” Pokémon? Do you like the concept of Mega Evolutions and their role in battles?

I would love to see a mega machamp like this http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/228/4/b/mega_fakemon__megamachamp___buy_now__by_mtc_studios-d6icjbx.png
Yes!
You can’t get more awesome than 6 arms!
mega machamp fighting and bug type. (turns into a spider)
FOUR ARMS!!!! plus two more.
Oh
This insnt from my childhood
Ultimate 4 arms!
GF why you no make Bug/Dragon Pokémon?! And turning an old gen Pokémon into one via Mega Evolution doesn’t count!
maybe megayanmega will be bug/dragon
Or mega Flygon!
Maybe, but I want a new Bug/Dragon Pokémon not a Bug/Dragon Mega.
Too bad, because Yanmega would have been the perfect choice.
The problem with dual-typing bugs is Ground attacks. If you give them Bug/Anything other than Flying, suddenly you have flying insects that are suddenly affected by earth tremors. It wouldn’t make any sense for Yanmega to be affected by Earthquake, and it also doesn’t make sense for Heracross to be affected now, since the anime and multiple other sources have shown Heracross using its wings.
Yes, but at least Bug resists Ground.
Huh, I didn’t know that. So my Earthquake on Scizor all these years was just neutral… great.
You never noticed the neutral sound effect? Also, if it was super effective against Scizor, the game would have said, “______ used Earthquake” “It’s super effective!”.
I rarely battle Scizors in the game and use Earthquake. It’s on generators like Pokemon Online and Showdown where I battle them the most, and I don’t always stare at the text to see what happened. At least it hits neutrally, which is better than some types do with Scizor. Anyway, at least I love carrying Fire moves on Pokemon to hit him with instead.
Well, we learn something new everyday.
and lets not forget how ridiculous it is for dustox and venomoth to be hit with ground type moves…
agree and also a electric/pyshic.
I wanted to use that too.
I don’t see the problem with having only 3 new legendaries. There’s too many already. Do you WANT another pointless trio?
Yes.
Yeah, I like the trios. They seem like a staple and are fun to use without being too overpowered.
I think the same
To be honest no I don’t really care for the trios.
I agree some trios were totally redundant, but a generation just doesn’t feel complete without a non-mascot trio.
And that’s why we’ll have Z, X2/Y2, or XZ/YZ.
I feel like the trios themselves aren’t redundant, but it’s the other legendaries that are.
In Sinnoh I would have been fine with the Lake Trio and the Creation Trio, but then add the Moon Duo, oddly lonely Heatran, Manaphy and it’s useless kin, Shaymin, and Arceus and then it gets ridiculous.
Unova would have been fine with just the Tao Trio and the Musketeer Trio, but the Kami trio just was completely redundant. Add in Genesect, Keldeo, and Meloetta and there’s a Legendary metagame all on its own.
Kalos seems fine with 2 trios- the Yggdrasil Trio and another minor one. The trio Pokemon won’t be Uber leveled strong, but will be about OU strength.
Personally, I’ve never been a fan of Legendaries, so only the mascot trio is enough to satisfy me
I am disappointed though that we didn’t get a Poison Legendary.
Yeah, that would have been cool to see that.
Define pointless. The Musketeers and the Genies were both cool as hell. The regional trio is one of the things I looks forward to the most.
Pointless as in not having an effect on the plot. I have heard that they are good though competitively, and the movies do make me respect them. I was just thinking about the Regi Trio then. My mistake.
The Regis are just odd. The anime depicts them as Legendaries some times, but then will occasionally just throw them in. Brandon has all three, which is just crazy, considering that he’s only one of two trainers in the anime to have any legendaries (Tobias, I’m glaring at you).
Oh man Tobias! What if the rest of his team were legendaries from future regions?!
I can’t decide which battle was more infuriating, his or Brandon’s. If Brandon would have used all 3 Regis against Ash, he would have swept him. Instead, he suddenly uses regular Pokemon for the first time. What? I wanted to see Charizard take out Registeel, Bulbasaur take out Regirock, and Squirtle and Pikachu work on Regice.
Then, instead of using regular Pokemon that he must have used to catch Darkrai, Tobias sends out a Latios. What? I wanted to see what Tobias had, but that was just awful. In my opinion, it was even worse than Pikachu’s loss to Lucario. At least Lucario put up a good fight and Ash lost fair and square.
I honestly like Tobias, but I don’t like how TV Tokyo created him as a Deus Ex Machina against Ash. You know…Ash has finally defeated his ultimate rival and has achieved far greater than ever before. He even won a few difficult battles with Blaze Infernape (WHICH WASN’T EVEN MEGA!!!!). But Ash must always lose in the final tournament. What do we do?
TOBIAS!!!
Yeah, the Regis were definitely a low point for regional trios, but the birds, the beasts, the lake trio and both of the gen V trios are all varying degrees of great, IMO.
Despite ther being only 69 new Pokemon atm, I don’t mind it one bit. There are a lot of new Pokemon I want on my team, and even the starters are the first time in a long time I want all 3 once more (only had that for gen 1 and 3). Also i go by this, Quality over quantity 😉
I completely agree Sunny1
Added in this gen has made the TOP 5 things I wanted to become a Pokemon too, them being Pancham (panda), Fletchling (red Robin), Tallonflame (I see it as a pseudo Pheonix), Tyrunt’s line (Motherf***** T-Rex :D), and Hawlucha (a stereotypical Luchadore Pokemon :D) lol
wait so is sylveon the only new evolution for an older pokemon?
Yes my main man.
didn’t we hear something about a male combee evo though?
IDK about that, it was mentioned but never confirmed solidly however. Josh the current leaker is looking for this NPC as we speak.
well that’s upsetting. but I guess acceptable considering how we have mega evolutions
A lot is up in the air right now. The people here on pokejungle (whom i all love) are taking almost everything the leakers say as true, but there’s still a lot of room for speculation. Perhaps there are more in the national dex, but apparently that is also full so who knows?
ugh Saturday needs to hurry up and get here
Lies. All lies…
LIAR!!! (insert Harry Potter meme here)
What Harry Potter memes are there?
http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lrl1md6QD31qdlkgg.gif
cool
It seems the Hype Train is slowly reaching its destination
We can board it again in Kalos.
the hype train is getting too crowded. the train is slowing down because the tracks can’t handle the extra weight 😛
I can see the Kalos region we are almost there!:D
Am I the only one who doesn’t have my whole team planned out? I have:
1. Greninja
2. Mawile
3. Chandelure
4. Dragalge
I still want to use a Psychic and a Flyer. Perhaps Sigyilph.
I don’t have my definitive team yet, just don’t know which one to pick, Chespin or Fennekin
No, my team isn’t planned out either. But that’s because I’m planning on kind of capturing my Dark types or things that evolve into Dark types as I go, and I don’t really know where they all will be in terms of location yet.
We still don’t know much about movepools or stats so we can’t really build good teams until we know how to make them balanced.
I suppose. That’s why I find it difficult deciding which Kalosmon to use.
I want klefki to be my main pokemon, but if he has no good attacking moves i will have to change things up. That’s why we shouldn’t be in too much of a rush to make teams
I bet klefki will have a good number of moves to work with considering it doesn’t evolve
with prankster and moves like foul play and crafty shield it seems like more of a support poke, but in-game you can really do anything you want and with enough levels beat everyone
My final team member for my starterless run of X is incomplete:
1. Pikachu
2. Fletchling (flyer/fire)
3. Phantump
4. Binacle
5. Pancham
6. ???
Go with a fairy type
Any recommendations?
I’d say Slurpuff or aromatisse (whichever you prefer) or sylveon!
How about meowstik and hawlucha? Or sigyilph and then an ice or an electric type. Maybe Heliolisk or Aurorus?
All sound good. I might use them,
I’m not deciding on anything but the starter (Fenniken, btw) until I see base stats and movepools
fenniken 4 the win! 😀
HOW YOU ADD
I agree with what seems to be the general sentiment: while there are fewer new Pokemon than in previous generations, I really like their designs and typing, so I’m okay with there being less of them. I kind of think of Gen 6 as a parallel to Gen 2, in that it introduces a smaller number of new Pokemon because it primarily builds upon the generation(s) before it.
every second gen is parallel to each other for the most part, gen 2,4,6 being the gens that usually build upon old pokemon while having a few new concepts themselves, where as every even number gen is usually a pretty stand alone generation of pokemon 1,3,5 all had a large number of pokemon who could function on their own, the only exception was in gen three they had 2 baby pokemon, wynaut and azurill
DO YOU GUYS TRULY BELIVE THAT THERES ONLY 70 NEW POKAMAN?
Yes. There are 69 or 70 confirmed new Pokemon, and apart from some kind of DLC to be released later, that’s all there will be.
well at this point we can find out for ourselves
I GUESS YOUR RIGHT MY MAN , LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE TO WAIT TILL FRIDAY NIGHT
lol is your caps key broken?
No … These leakers have been very nice but sometimes I question their competence in giving us reliable info.
WELL DONT QUESTION ANYMORE THE GAME IS COMING AROUND THE CORNER
same here . i belevie that there is more pokemon
that moment when you realize you have too many pokemon to make a team from 0.o
I’m having a hard time making a team as well!
and with these incredible graphics, I now want pokemon that have never looked appealing to me before
#sorrynotsorry
#firstworldproblems
That is why back in Black and White I decided not to have a single team of six Pokémon but train and use lots of Pokémon.
that’s smart but that method never worked for me.
#thestruggle
What starter are you choosing?
And this my team if it’ll help…
Greninja
Venusaur
Chandelure
Hawlucha
Tyrantrum
Heliolisk
so far, I want fennekin, squirtle, flabebe, and vivillion. but this could change at any moment. I really like your team by the way 🙂
Thank you! Your team is full of potential!
thanks. we should totally have a battle… that is when the games finally come out and I get my 3ds
I LOVE HOW NINTENDO IS IN THE DARK ON ALL OF THIS, THEY HAVENT SHOWN NOTHING NEW AND IT MAKES IT MORE WORSE , THERE TACTIC ON THE ELEMENT OF SURPRISE IS CRAZY
Mind hitting ‘caps lock’ key once more?
MY MIND CANT HIT THE CAP KEYS LOL
lol I can’t help screaming your posts in my mind XD
HAHHAAHHAAHAA AM NOT SCREAMING XD
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f69qM229y4U
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f69qM229y4U
THE Z LEGENDARY LOOKS EWWWW
Ì THINK IT LOOKS GOOD
EWWW !!!!! SERIOUSLY? IT LOOK IT CAME FROM GOD OF WAR
Seriously take the stupid caps lock off. And if you don’t like it don’t use it. No need to be immature about it
I like it, Just not it’s typing too much. And it’s tail is too flat and kinda looks like a fruit by the foot. The coloring is really cool though
OOOH HECK YEA GREEN AND BLACK IS NICE , BUT NOT THE DESIGN
Turn off the Caps Lock please.
You mad bro?
My current mindset for a team:
.Greninja
.Charizard (X)
.Heliolisk
.Klefki (or spritzee if I can get one :P)
.Goodra
.Trevenant
😛 it’s hard for me to not want to go with all fairy types, I love all of them
Does anyone else love the fairies as much as I do? 😛
I love fairies as well, but there isn’t enough new dual typed Fairy types for me to us. 🙁
but there is for a full on 6 team of fairies
Yeah, but I like variety with types…
yeah, there are older ones though, maybe some of them will get mega’s I’m really hoping for a mega clefable for some reason 😛
i’n facing a major problem
How will I do a Ground Monotype journey with only a Diggersby?
I can’t use Zygarde since it’s a Legendary and only 1 ground type that can mega evolve so far
and what about the alleged Ground/fairy type… does it exist? I NEED ANSWERS
And there isn’t enough of the other types I specialize with I.E Fighting and Rock
the only type that can be all kalos would be full on Fairy
My goal is to become the Greatest Ground type Master!
Who said you aren’t the Greatest Ground type master?
if i haven’t mastered Diggersby or any other from the region i can’t be
Because I’ve caught and trained with every AND I MEAN EVERY Ground type so far
Diggersby looks too much like a Fighting/Ground IMO. I can’t take it! XD
THAT IS THE ONLY COMBO I NEED!
I’m a fighter and a lover of Elemental Earth!
Diggersby is another example of missed potential 🙁
Well you haven’t trained a Mega Garchomp yet … just hope more ground types get mega evos.
Does this mean you also have to master Zygarde?
yesado yesado…
Use old Pokemon such as Golem, Mamoswine, and Krokorok… unfortunately that seems to be the only option.
I’ve had my Golem since Firered
my Mamoswine is from a little swinub from SS
and my Krokorok evolved ages ago and is competitive able!
Just a question, but what is your favorite Ground type? Mines Krookodile XD
Mine is Rhyperior!
Rhydon was my all-star in the original Red
but through my childhood most of my favorites consisted of Sandshrew, Diglett, Cubone, onix, Geodude and Nidoking
Back to Rhyperior
Rhyperior is a over-sized powerhouse that can literally shake the foundation of every opponent and crumble their chances of victory, my Rhyperior took several Earthquakes and barely flinched
So do you only use ground types? Doesn’t that make taking down water or grass types difficult?
all the time, but I never give up, nobody said I didn’t lose a couple of matches due to type disadvantages
But I won’t ever give up my dedication!
although I did managed to defeat Misty in the PWT on a full 6-on-6
Wouldn’t using Gastrodon for that make it so much easier?
True my Gastrodon did win me the championship in Diamond
What 6 Ground Pokemon would you say make your strongest team?
Not my question, but I think Swampert, Rhyperior, Krookodile, Gliscor, Mamoswine, and Hippowdon would make a great Ground type team.
I’d put in Gastrodon over Swampert for that Storm Drain neutering Water-types, but that does look good.
I’d say Garchomp, Gliscor, Mamoswine, Gastrodon, Torterra, Excadrill. 3 of those are x4 to ice though..
What’s your favourite ground type Pokemon?
Rhyperior…
and one that has won me countless upon countless battles is my faithful Excadrill!
I totally think that ground is the best type. 😉
And Excadrill is my favorite Pokemon! <3
You have Diggersby, Dugtrio, Flygon, Garchomp, Golem, Quagsire, Krookodile, Hippowdon, Rhyperior, Steelix, Marowak, Stunfisk, Whiscash, Golurk, Nidoqueen, Nidoking, Mamoswine and Gliscor.
I’d say use Diggersby and Garchomp for sure (because Garchomp has a Mega, which is new), and then take a pick out of what you haven’t used before? Idk man.
ok so i have a problem, my (sisters) 3ds will not turn on with the battery it came with or a charge base. however i did get it to turn on about 3 times with a replacement battery i ordered but the 3rd time on i got it to power off if i move it it shuts off. does anybody know what i should do this is my only way to play x an y,
this is quite the crisis situation. the same thing happened to my very first ds 0.o I wish I knew how to help but my advice would be to get a new 3ds (or a 2ds is you’re short on money)
ughh guess ill be watching lets plays for a couple of months
well in the mean time you can keep trying to get that 3ds to work. my little brother had a ds with the same problem and he left it alone for a day or two and it worked like new….
..not sure how though….0.o
Whack it several times on a hard surface and it’ll work for you 🙂 (jokes dont do that :P)
actually thats how it turned on i hit it
Wow were genius!
Trying calling the nintendo company or something like that. Maybe they could replace it for you or something. Or maybe even call the place you got it at
the problem is it was given to my sister from extended family
Hm then I would try and contact nintendo about it
i did they just said buy a official 3ds charger
Well that’s not helpful. Is buying a new 2ds or 3ds out of the question?
as a broke college student yes lol
Try googling it and seeing if anyone has had the same problem and maybe you could find out how to fix it
nope nothin
Does best buy or game stop offer a repair service on stuff? Maybe you could bring it in to them and they can see what they can do. Or (I wouldn’t necessarily advise it) you could unscrew the back of the 3ds and see if anything is damaged in there
when i go pick up my x reserve ill ask and thank you
There could be a loose ribbin in your 3ds?
would you know where i could get it fixed
Unfortunately no. But you can try type your 3ds symptoms on the web and Youtube you might find a solution :). Do you have console repair shops in your local area?
JUST SAW MY FIRST 2DS/POKEMON X AND Y ADVERT ON SKY 1 IN UK!
better ? XD , i just had my snicker lol
It didn’t last long, I presume?
IMAGINE MEGA MACHAMP!!!
EIGHT PAIRS OF ARMS BULGING WITH MUSCLES

Mega Machamp = ALEX LOUIS ARMSTRONG
** Guy in Serebii did this image 🙂
Wow Reuniclus looks amazing in 3D!

i bet 5,000 pokedollars her main is a Malamar
I bet 1,000 Poke Dollars that her main is a Pokemon.
It’s Meowstic
Yay, I win!
Now where’s my 5,000 pokedollars? haha
I uh uhhhh
*pulls out a Pokeball and throws it*
Excadrill use dig and fast!
*Hops down the hole as it closes*
anyone thinking about using a Binacle?
call me weird but I think I’m developing some sort of “feelingz” for the little parasite?
and besides Barbaracle looks like a mean fighter!
I want to see how its stats compare to omanyte, omastar, kabuto, kabutops, corsola, relicanth, tirtouga, and carracosta first. That’s my dig at the typing.
Heck na. The typing would be helpful to me but I just can’t get over it’s appearance so I would end up boxing it. Plus barbaracle doesn’t redeem it enough to warrent using it. At least for me
