Pokémon X/Y Discussion & News

im my opinion the prof looks like girlish and the team flare(with everything orange including their hair ) look ridiculous .

Pokemon X&Y have to be downloadedIt has been announced that the games Pokémon X & Y will both be distributed via a special download card in various retail stores across Japan in addition to the standard release as both cartridges and directly on the eShop.
This follows on from various previous games on the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. However, these download cards have confirmed how much space is required on the SD card in order to play it.
You need to have at least 1.7GB, approximately 14,000 blocks, of space on your SD card to download the game.
It's also confirmed that you'll be unable to have two games communicate on the same system should both be downloaded.Pokemon X&Y boxLL :

Even if Nintendo puts a ton of anti-piracy measures on this "special card", sooner or later it will be cracked :)

New ghostly tree Pokemon revealed!A new Pokemon (which had been rumoured for a little while now) has been revealed in a new Japanese trailer video. It is known as Oorotto in Japan. It resembles a haunted tree and is rumoured to be Grass/Ghost type. The video shows a horde of them appearing in battle:The trailer, which can be seen below, also shows Fennekin using a new move, translated as Glow Punch. It looks very similar to the other elemental punches like Fire Punch, but is likely to be a new type.Also shown is an underwater battle, suggesting that Dive might make a return in a similar style to Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald.

Orotto

Details:
This Pokémon was revealed in a trailer for Pokémon X & Y which was included at the start of the movie Extremespeed Genesect: Mewtwo Awakens. It was shown in a Horde Battle

anyway the Pokemon looks good . and the light and sound concept sounds good :)

Oorotto, nice tree pokemon! Look likes Digimon for me! ;D

And here's info for the upcoming Pokémon Global Link for this generation 6 game;Source : Official Website

As been mentioned that there will be 2 method of sales for these games;
1. Via rom download, using special download card and an SD Micro, where as been mentioned having both games in 1 SD Card won't make it
communicate with each other on same console (as always must use 2 consoles to make the 2 games able to communicate with each other)
2. As retail cartridges; this is the traditional method as been done for yearsHowever the point of interest would be the download card paired with SD Micro, sounds like "de ja vu" don't you think? Blank flash cartridges + SD Micro, rings the bell? Surely it would be interesting for flash carts makers to dissect, wouldn't it? Maybe they could find a break through from it; compared to the already doom before released gateway cart.

has any other game been given out like this before ?

Download card paired with micro SD? lol Nice idea ;DI thought you simply get a code that you have to enter somewere on the internet or in your 3DS to download the game, put it onto your SD card and put the card into the SD card slot in your 3DS?

Yes only in Japan back in the SNES days:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_Power_%28cartridge%29And we all know what this distribution system lead to right? The birth of console cartridge piracy....Ah Nintendo, you never learn :POr have you?First thing's first Pirates... decode that cartridge DRM mechanism of the 3DS :)

Mega Evolution! Wow! Similar to Digimon version! Nice job Pokemon team! :p

But why give Newer Evolutions to pokemon like Ampharos and Mawile? ???
Now Ampharos a is Dragon type too!
I think Absol looks weird, Blaziken looks awesome! :DWhat have they done to my all time favorite Lucario?!
Well atleast it has a new ability, Adaptability, so STAB on Aura Sphere, Bullet Punch, Close Combat!
Adaptability increases STAB from 1.5× to 2× :D Yaa! Huge power boost for Lucario!
I hope they give him a Signature Technique and a Better atk 'n spd stats!edit: Lucario doesnt look like an Aura Guardian anymore, he looks creepy and Evil!
Those Tentacle/ Ghostly wings with Red spikes on Lucarios back remind me of another very-creepy, kinda-evil pokemon:

Here is an awesome Lucario fan art, from the link No. 0556 Lucy posted![left][/left]

IMHO, BEST Pokemon ever~! &

wow Mawile new evolution look great. (not to mention a great ability to boot) cant wait to see what Gardevoir's mega evolution would look like... it seems like mega evolution arent part of the basic evolution line (baby, basic, stage 1 and stage 2) but rather a powered up form....
