I think Sylveon's gonna be only old pokemon new evolution this time around. If I was head in the pokemon department honestly I would say "no mega evolutions they're not what people would want. People want old pokemon evolving keep megaabsol and megamawile and megalucario and megakanghaskan and megamewtwo but keep them as normal evolutions, prevolution for kanghaskan and for mewtwo just an alternate form o.k" But now here's a little somein' somein' if the rumour is true which let's face it is, Mewtwo can megaevolve twice, once for the the mewtwo that's been around for months and the mew looking form. Oh and btw Morphtorok no not every final stage will have one but don't be surprised if a lot more starters, gen 6 pokemon and Zoroark have megaevolutions

Ya know, I feel as if they're especially putting their design skills to the max on this one.

I agree! As long as the worst designs this gen aren't equal to or less than vanillice, this looks like a very creative group!

I still don't know why people are so in denial of the possibility that Oorotto is a sudowoodo evolution. It's hard to say either way, but it could be it.

well oorotto isn't the evolution of sudowoodo for one reason if sudowoodo had an evolution it would be a mega evolution. Absol, Mawile, Lucario and Kanghaskan all get their evolutions and prevolution as a mega so yeah that's why

Looking at what's been announced my team so far is looking like.

Froakie
Skiddo
Fletchling
Scatterbug
Inkay

It is literally impossible for Orotto to be a Sudowoodo evolution. It shares zero similarities with it other than being a tree.

It looks like tree posessed by a Dusknoir to me. I hope we get some more info on it sometime soon.

sarcasm But Noivern must be an evolution of Swoobat because they are both bats! I could not believe people thought that and I cannot believe people think Orotto is an evolution of Sudowoodo.

Finally footage for the other mega forms.

But you have to keep in mind that much stranger things have happened. The only thing leading me to think otherwise is the absence of yellow dots on it. And when you think about it: Bonsly=Sapling, Sudowoodo= Fully Grown Tree, and Orotto appears to be an old, dead/dying tree. And the placement of greenery is too similar to sudowoodo. It just makes too much sense to me. 0_o

I suppose so but then again, look at Alomomala. :/

I wonder how Cthul-Malamar's stats will play out. I can't wait to have fun with Topsy Turvy. Seriously, I was expecting something Eldritch from a Dark Psychic...

Google search "Mind Flayer" and you'll see how they came up with that pokemon.

So apparently Mega Absol's wings are made of fur standing on end, he can't fly with them.

Well, just because your hair looks like a bird it doesn't mean you can fly!

Heck, they could actually be wings and he still wouldn't have the ability to fly, since it's an evolution only available during battle.

That's an even better basis! Can Gamefreak make me like this thing anymore?!?

All of the 3DS X and Y bundles are sold out in Japan.

...the retailer had an allowance of about 100,000 units (it’s not specified if the number refers only to the bundles or to the whole stock). The embargo on preorders was lifted at 10 in the morning. One hour later (11 AM), the Pokemon Center (PokeSen) bundle with a limited edition golden 3DS was sold out. At 19:00 (7 PM) the standard 3DS bundle was sold out as well. At the moment they only have the game by itself in stock.

@Sony_70 Wow... but they were only pre-orders, right?
