        • Since it’s mentioned that the war took place in neighboring regions could the story revolve around that and go more in-depth with AZ?

          • I wonder where they are taking it though. I think it’s a Hey You Pikachu remake. Can’t wait to see what it is!! On Monday we will know.

          • My eyes are open as far as they can go and it still doesn’t recognize it! You also have to see the face in the bottom left corner.

          • Please let you and Jordin be right.. I want to mainly journey in Kalos for the main adventure, although the plot would revolve around that region. Maybe that region was destroyed and Kalos is what remains of it?

          • The ruins of AZ’s castle! And you find Floette waiting there, watching over AZ carefully. And when AZ is in that cell, he get out and releases both Xerneas and Yvetal and all hell break loose. Zygarde tries to stop it, but Xerneas AND Yvetal are too much for it. In the end, AZ and Floette nearly sacrifice their lives to save the world, and doing so, they return to early Kalos, to live mortally, once again. :3

          • For your character to experience the war, and see what AZ suffered through. And then you return to modern Kalos, to stop Team Flare once, and for all.

          • What if you try to stop the war like Ash and end turned into stone only for your beloved Pikachu and clone’s tears to bring you back to life. You help save Floette or try to make it stay with AZ. Or maybe help AZ, or maybe you time travel back in time to change the world! So many possibilities!

          • If you bring up the town map, try to hover to the left all the way past the ocean and the map will stop you at the screen border, however when you try the same thing on the right side of the map, it will let the pointer hover past the mountains and slightly off screen. I thought this was interesting but just a lil nugget that could mean nothing

          • There could be a new region in the south of Kalos that could be based off Spain, or something. Whatever it is, it would explain the Strange Souvenir item.

          • Well Kalos did win the war, but the guidebook specifically stated we’d be able to trade berries to X and Y from other regions.

  5. Character Customization is the absolute best! I just walked into the Anistar Boutique and saw a zipper jacket that’s orange and blue. Those are my NY Mets colors, so happy right now ^_^

  6. Anyone be willing to trade a gen VI shiny for level 73-77 Aegislash, Lucario with Lucarionite, Xerneas, Talonflame or Greninja? I also have a Zygarde and a Dedenne, an unused Fennekin and a bit more. 😉

  13. I love it….until you get to the post game stuff, I mean the graphics, plot, soundtrack, that’s all amazing!
    But after you’ve done all the Looker Quests, you’re stuck with catching, breeding and battling
    But there have been some interesting things floating around
    The obvious hints towards a new region (strange souvenir) which will hopeful have new pokemon
    Also, remember those names?
    ‘Dianshii, Borukenion, and Fuupa’
    Well take a look at the pic
    What’s even more interesting, I deposited a ditto for one of the ‘Pokemon’ using the new type in feature and hey presto, it worked

  14. There are some things that could be disappointing, but these games are amazing! It makes me feel all sorts of emotions, which I haven’t fully felt this since D/P, to me.
    The story is so fluid and fills with emotion, much like a PMD story (and I always love those!)
    The soundtrack sounds amazingly beautiful, especially the overworld.
    Sure the lack of Pokemon and after-game is disappointing to hear, those faults don’t change my opinion. I love them.
    Finally had gotten my Fennekin 😀

  17. I’m really enjoying the game I’d say it’s as good as gen 3 and 4 it is visually amazing and the pokemon typing is good as well I’d say the pokemon designs are over all very good but I’m still disappointed there aren’t more new pokemon and there’s a lack of legendaries as well….. I rate it 8/10

  19. So, Serebii caught a Milotic, and found something interesting. Milotic now has the ability Competitive, which raises it special attack when another stat is decreased. And, much to the disappointment of many fans, Milotic is still pure Water. I’m glad though, i think it should’ve stayed Water. I think Whimsicott becoming Grass/Fairy and Lilligant not was what irked me.

  21. Guys would you mind rating my team so far? I need to come up with a good, solid team for a little tourney I’m doing with some friends. The plan after that is to have this as my gen 6 team though, so I want it to be as good as possible.

    So Far I have: Aegislash, Greninja, Mega Gardevoir, Gliscor.

    I was thinking of having Mienshao as my lead, Mienshao is an excellent lead. I don’t have to, though.

    What do I need? I kinda want to be able to balance out my weaknesses here, so that I can take out pretty much anything if not super-effectively then with neutral STABs (the attacker needs to resist the opponent in this situation ideally though). I’d like to use Kalos Pokemon as much as possible. I tend to prefer using sweepers, but I’m perfectly able and happy with a tank/stall Pokemon or even a status inducer, those are always fun.

    • I would have suggested Clawitzer as a sweeper, but you already have Greninja. If you want a good status inducer and tank, I’d suggest a Goodra with the ability Hydration and the moves Rain Dance and Rest. Type wise, I’d suggest Aurorus or Tyrantrum, but I have no idea how well they function in battle. Mienshao would make a great lead, teach it bounce and roll with it.

  25. EVENT LEGENDARIES CONFIRMED.

    People have been wondering about event legendaries for X/Y and there is in fact 3 confirmed. A lot of people have heard the rumors, and serebii has created pages for each of them which can’t yet be clicked.

    -Diancie which is a Rock/Fairy is apparently going to be revealed fall 2014 according to Hiro.
    -Volcanion is Fire/Water
    -Hoopa is Ghost/Psychic

    If you type there names into the GTS, they appear, although nobody has one because well, their event only Pokemon. (Proof Below)
