This year was certainly a memorable one in the Poké-verse. Almost a full year ago we were treated to a Pokémon direct that revealed Generation VI of the main series. Many had wondered what other colors or gems there were left to use for their names, but The Pokémon Company surprised us all by announcing Pokémon X & Pokémon Y. These two new games boasted features fans had only dreamed of, including 3D graphics, trainer customization, and a global release. Then came the 9 months of waiting for them to come out. We all persevered however and everyone was kept up to date on all the minute revalations right here at PJN 😉
Along with Generation VI, 2013 also saw a new Pokémon movie, Genesect and the Legend Awakened, as well as a new anime season featuring the cast of Pokémon X & Y. New TCG sets based on the game also debuted.

Staff: Favorite Moments of 2013
PJ: My favorite Pokémon memory of 2013 was probably getting to go to the Pokémon Game Show. It was a first for the series and the event was super fun. I also got a chance to play Pokémon X & Y early which was a blast (but made me even more impatient)! Obviously another great moment was the release of X & Y. They’re great games and being able to start my own adventure was something I had waited to do since they were announced. Lastly, I’d just like to say that 2013 was a year of exciting growth for this site and it really has been a privilege to deliver news to all of you and read your comments on all our posts. I’ve also really enjoyed working alongside all of the staff here. Here’s to a great 2014!
moving: 2013 has been a pretty big year for me. My activity and work on the site increased hugely and it now feels like I’ve become a proper part of the site (hopefully the other staff and visitors agree!), and I’m proud to say I’ve been a part of PokéJungle.nets biggest and busiest year yet. It’s difficult to fit all of my highlights of the year into a couple of sentences, so I won’t even try… However one of my favourite moments was in the week before X & Y released, the staff were all up in arms about who would be doing what and who would get their copy of the game first. Then, two days early I received my game shortly after Sammydodger and properly kicked off our in-depth coverage. There’s absolutely loads I could pick, but that will do for now, perhaps more in the comments… 2014? Bring it on!
Visitors: Favorite Moments of 2013
Your turn! We here at PJN would like to hear about your favorite things from this past year. We’ve also prepared a small list of questions to inspire you 😉
- What piece of news made you most excited for Pokémon X & Y?
- What was your favorite Pokémon that was introduced this year?
- Any non-Pokémon things that were memorable for you in 2013?
Looking Forward to 2014
A new year means new possibilities. We already know of one release we’ll get: Pokémon Bank. After it’s rocky launch and subsequent removal in Japan, only time will tell when it will be released worldwide. Hopefully soon though! The next year could also bring new surprises for fans. Spin-offs? Remakes? Who knows what will be announced. One thing’s for sure though… we’ll do our best here at PJN to report it first! So we hope you’ll stick with us and come along for the ride 😀
Want a New Year’s Resolution?
I’m going to shamelessly suggest that you make it your resolution to join our GREAT forum and post regularly 😀 It’s rather quiet right now, but we’ve got some great members and the commenters here would feel at home there. Hope to see you at Mt. Moon Community in 2014!

Coaltle- Fire Type- The Hot-headed pokemon
Pokemon-725
A pokemon A short Temper . WHen Angry it little fur scarf ingites into flames and it speed Increases dramatically.
Evoles into Oxflare Lvl 16- Fire/Dark- FlameOck- Fire/Dark
I like Coaltle and Oxflare…Flameock sounds a bit weird, but i can’t think of anything better
me either its hard ox dont have alot of names
What does the water starter look like in the fan game??
My favorite part of 2013 was when I hatched a shiny Chimchar.
Somebody make it happen.
Magic
I want my January Nintendo Direct, NOW!!!! I’m not excited about anything….
What coalbra could look like 🙂
u took that right off my post didnt u 😀
the idea of coalbra and the dex i came up with .THe pic you posted looks like what i thought of 😀
Epic editing skills
right off the cropping
I was thinking a little quadruped salamander with a glowing coal necklace and glowing coals going down his back. :3333333
that could work i only thought of the name and dex entry drawing anybody can make 😀
It’s missing a hood
@slipperysceptile:disqus IF coalbra becomes the fire starter, i’ll name mine Pushup xD
i posted a pic below:D

What Coaltle could look like(none with my fur scaft thing)
WHAT UP EVERYBODY, EARTHENWARRIOR IN DA HOOOOOUSE!!!!
YYEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHHH WAARRRIOR!
Party’s over, everyone go home.
got the mountain dew
Shyeah I do!
*Uses Scald*
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEA!
My new region starter ideas:
A water mermaid Pokemon, Mermaid Pokemon (Water/Fairy)
Torrent/Siren Song (Traps Poison, Steel, and Fire type Pokemon in battle)
A phoenix Pokemon, Resurrection Pokemon (Fire/Flying)
Blaze/Resurrection (Resurrects upon it’s first faint)
A Beast Pokemon, Beast Pokemon (Grass/Fighting)
Overgrow/Overtake (Upon using Overtake #1, this Pokemon can copy the stats of a fallen comrade)
As you can see, these Pokemon are all involved in war in some way.
resurrection is too op
chesnaught copy…
Actually, Overtake copy. If you watch Fairy Tail then you know what Beast Overtake. But yes. If Fire has broken the Fighting chain, then let it fly towards the grass starters… XD
wurmple lv 1 on team dies Zavok has only 6 attack
? I… don’t… get it…
zavok is a fake name for the grass pokemon. and with overtake if a wurmple on zavok’s team dies it gets the stats of a lv 1 wurmple so overtake can be pretty bad at times
zavok could be the name
Oh! I get! No, you have a choice if you want to “Overtake” the stats of a Pokemon.
Zavok VS Arceus
actually this match coaltle
I don’t know about you, but I really liked bergmite.
I had a shiny Bergmite!
bergmite is badass
Ash is bound to catch one
ASH BETTER CATCH A SKIDDO SO IT CAN BACK KICK HIM
anybody got a deino
just breed a Zwei
dont have a zweilious. IM looking in victory road right now but its very raRE
I see like 5 a day
Now this is the story all about how my life got flip-turned upside down, it’ll only take a minute so just sit right there, about how I became the prince of Bel-Air.
Now this is the story about how life got flip-turned upside down. il only take mintue so just sit right and how i became the mayor of Skiddo ranch
In west Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground where I spent most of my days
Chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool
And all shooting some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys, they were up to no good
Started making trouble in my neighbourhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
And said “You’re moving with your auntie and uncle in Bel-air”
Okay there was alot of posts xD
Who said what about the fire starter ideas for the Zahrre region?
I said coalbra 😀
I got that one down :3
the pic is below as well is case needed
http://a.disquscdn.com/uploads/mediaembed/images/768/4566/original.jpg?w=600&h
put coaltle
Got it
YAY
Weird I had a similar Idea for a enemy for my game in the 6th grade
I said Coaltle
Coaltle is a fire ox….
I went on the GTS looking for a cyndaquil. This one guy advertised his having 5 ivs. I gave him a xerneas. Guess what? He lied.
WOW.
why would u give a xerneas anyway….
i think he mean tlooking for one with 5iv
Zavok, the Great Beast of Eastern Zhire (What ever the new Region’s name is)
Zavok (Beast Stater) VS Greninja
Seyrainia (Mermaid Starter) VS Chesnaught
Zephyr (Phoenix Starter) VS Delphox
But the pheonix would be flying fire and it would die to stealth rock, why not make it fire fairy as it is a pheonix and it could learn flying moves
I’m so tempted to grab my 3Ds and hatch the last few eggs to see if I have a shiny… I would get in so much trouble with my dad for playing on the job though…
@MayorSkiddo:disqus @slipperysceptile:disqus We can’t use THOSE designs cause we don’t have permission to use them ._. lol But we can design pokemon similar to them.
Plagiarism!!!
im just waiting fir zillia
Exactly,xD But theres nothing wrong with using them as an influence
sure i was going to ask zillia to draw on but she isnt around now
I’m an Artist too you know
As am i
can you draw a black snake with flames on or around its neck.with a tail in the shape of a flame?
I done that a gazillion times
I was thinking of a Pitch Black glossy scaled cobra with a flame running down it’s back, with a flame like fin at the tip of its tail
also a red charm on its face
also the inner hood has glowing flame decals
COOL 😀
I’m “The guy” to go to for awesome well thought Pokemon Ideas!
thanks and I can make pokedex entries and names for any type of pokemon
I’m insanely good with dex entries and names but i’m always up for suggestions
I called my starter Coalbra the Ignition Snake Pokemon
When starled by surrounding predators, Coalbra ignites the flames on its neck to exhaust a frill. Each flame is as powerful as 1,000 manmade fires
it has to have a fluffy fur scarft around its neck because that where fire comes from when it gets angry
Starters for a made a
a Fire type chupacabra pokemon
a grass type bigfoot pokemon
a water type nessie pokemon)
WHY NO UNICORN
we are doing myths and legends
pegasus
uhh Rapidadash is a unicorn
Fire type hare
Water type dolphin
Grass type jaguar
if it was a seal it could be called Subzeal
We have a sea otter already :/
I like the sound of Junguar
I was literally thinking of that same name.
I like the Jaguar and fits nicely to the theme I made up.
You know what? I actually want my starter ideas to be the Trio of the new region. The Mastermind Trio or something way cooler.
Legend has it, on the day of the Pheonix’s awakening, it’s comrades will awake with it. The Beast Master Zavok and the elusive Seyrainia will come… To those who seek truth they shall burn them… To those that seek ideal they shall greet them. The ever growing battle between truth and ideal, yin and yang, life and death will start anew. Time will surrender it’s powers! Space will render it so! Beasts versus Beast, Birds VS Bird, Golems VS Mermaid… A new age will come from the aftermath of this battle… A new age and the waiting of it’s destruction.
And the legendary is oprah winfrey
All this talk of fakemon xD
the legendarys of the next region should be based of cryptids
Yetice
Coldossus
And be a Poison type.
Is it same to assume that we’ll have a new announcement for the next games in the second week of January? Or is it too soon?
announcement of poke bank
its coming “valve style’
It’s likely
I hope not! It’s like getting a new album and having it top the charts. Think of it like this; Pokemon has 6 #1 albums and over 20+ #1 singles.
Has everyone seen my titanic spoof with Gourgeist and Slaking?
Yep
I haven’t I was out
(Refresh)
Nyce
Do you ship them? Cause the SS Anne crashed q,q
I am fighting the urge to make that joke
