Pokemon!

[Trevor.]

Whoa whoa! What have I missed if I stay off the Internet for a few days?! A sixth generation! How does Pokemon churn them out so quickly? But it's only for 3DS... Sigh...

So off I go to look at the site and watch the trailer, and look at the new starters, legendaries and the like. Whilst the fire starter looks beautiful (way, way better then Tepig) a groggy frog Water type one does not, but that's just my opinion. Unsure about Grass.

Me loves the water type one <3

Ah, I love Pokemon! Hey guys.

fun fact: Not only do x and y have to do with genetics, but they're also the axes on a coordinate plane- the third part of the main three will certainly be called z, because the games are, you know. 3D.

This is pretty much what I assumed the X and Y stood for as opposed to genetics. To add to this fun fact, the 'Cartesian coordinate system' was developed by the French mathematician, René Descartes. Add the fact that this is the first 3D Pokemon generation game (As opposed to a spin off.) and the fact that it is based off France/Europe, and I dunno~ Seems like it isn't that they ran out of colors, I think they are trying to be witty. XD

The legendary names!

[Pure Dragon]

How.... do you even say those names? D: I admit the Yveltal looks cool, but Xerneas looks pretty unoriginal. And the starters... they're really running out of ideas, it looks more like a cartoonized fox/frog/mole (although with a hat) than an actual separate creature.

And why would they base it out of Europe? I'm pretty sure the other gens (except Gen 5, I heard that was based out of New York?) weren't based out of real places and they were really cool. I think they should have at least made some more remakes like HG/SS before they made another gen, does anyone else think it's come way too soon?

(Oh, and to those concerned about their old games - 3DS is backwards compatible to play DS games. Although you may want to hold on to your DSLite/DSi anyways to trade pokemon and stuff.)

The trailer says "coming worldwide October 2013"

People say pokemon is running out of ideas every time they release a new game.

I imagine they are prnounced
"Zer-nee-us"
"ee-vel-tel"

[koolkatkoolkat123]

well they are have you seen some of the pokemon in black and white they've become so desperate they need to make pokemon based off lamp posts

And i must admit the deer legendary looks pretty cool, literally

But to me they are playing the name game, take a letter add another then another and see what you get but remember it has to sound like a name, what i thought when i saw Y's legendary name

I don't know where the the "Yv" combonation comes from, I have seen it before though. I know someone name "Yvonne" that was pronounced "Ee-von"

The Litwick line was one of the coolest gen 5 lines!

Anyone have a account on the online trading card game?

My friend, you are incorrect. Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh are, apearently, all based off regions of Japan.

Official pronunciations from the pokemon facebook

We’ve been getting a lot of questions about the pronunciation of the new Legendary Pokémon names. So here they are, Trainers! The official English phonetic spelling for Xerneas is ZURR-nee-us, and for Yveltal is ee-VELL-tall. How many of you already had it right?
