Fairy types only in the one competition? Well guess I should finish my mawile so I can just spam iron head... and make a HP poison gardevoir if that's the case.
I really think that's a bad idea.. there is only a couple viable fairy types and not that many options to choose from.. everything will more than likely be special walls as the only physical threat is mawile which we all know will be on 99.9% of all teams for steel type.
Azumaril, gardevoir, mawile, sylveon, grumbull, jigglypuff, wigglytuff, togekiss, slurpuff, aromotiss (spelling?), florge's line, that pichu ripoff.. and tbh honest that's all I can think of as far as all the fairy types in the game.. I can't even think of more than three different strategies.. either mawile sweep with wish/heal bell support with sylveon and the two fairies that need traded.. or gardevoir sweep... or just annoy the entire world with possibily the cheapest method of winning in the form of paraflinching everything with togekiss..
For the ghost type one.. atleast you have plenty of ghost types and many ways to attack each other.. fairies, nothing fairy can stop gardevoir.. or paraflinch togekiss for that matter. Hidden power fire gardevoir murders mawile.
maybe having the pokemon following you like in HG and SS would be a nice touch as well. I always loved having arceus following me and nobody seemed to notice or care.
Whenever we have 1000+ pokemon.. no matter how long the fanchise goes thing is every new addition affects the metagame or increases strategies.. etc etc..
In gen 1-4 things were pretty steady and new moves were added which changed battling. Then black and white added major changes with hidden abilities, moves, and extremely interesting and usefull pokemon we overlook. Gen 6 didn't have much to offer with their 69 new pokemon.. but they introduced alot of new game mechanics and alot of other threats dominating and changing the meta game like gale wings and aegislash as well as mega evolving at any time. A remake of these games would only enhance even MORE changes with move tutors (if there are any) and more mega evolutions(again if there are any..) and who knows what else gameplay wise will be changed.
Pokemon isn't a story line changing game each time.. each and everything little change completely impact the strategy.. picture it as chess! if chess had 6 generations.. I'm pretty sure it's be extremely different than gen 1 with every new piece and strategy made despite the similar gameplay.
A cod game simply make one gun which is as usefull as all the others.. not perticularly nessecary nor most likely wanted.. and they just remake the campaign.. pokemon likes to try something new whether it's a small mechanic or change of scenery.
Blood, gore, and graphics isn't an on going successful franchise.. good innovation is.
The way I see it, they may not be transferable.. but they may be tradable like every other item (which I still don't understand why..)
However, who knows.. anything any of us say will be nothing but speculations whether they're true or false. So let's just see what they announce prior to release.
One japanese poster I saw in a video which idk if it was legit showed a silhouette of what almost looked like a rayquaza/groudon hybrid. Of course I can't speak their language so tanslation is beyond me.
Maybe, but for some reason I'm not really feeling it for them to get mega evolutions. They are already too powerful.
But... maybe it's the version exclusive hoenn eons who we HAVE confirmed to get their megas. Besides if groudon and kyrogre got megas they would have to be transferable to x/y.. not to mention that x/y has been hacked weeks after release and pretty much we found only 2 new megas and 3 events as well as potentially scrapped or hidden vivillons.
These may be what they're refering to by "never before seen".. or it would be like that if hackers didn't jump to work.
They also wanted these hidden more than anything.. notice how nintendo let action replays and cheating device get arceus and all those pokemon? but only now when there is very little special they actually threaten the company of powersaves (datel) with a lawsuite to stop releasing the unreleased content.. they weren't only spoiling events.. they were spoiling future plans and games gamefreak had all along!
But who knows.. time will tell. We'll know what's up in 7 months.
So those making speculations of a new game coming out that was never hinted or announced were right...
Guess this means..
I hope they are released for these new games! (despite the fact I already have em..)
Nonetheless.. I hope more effort is put into this than x/y. I felt X/Y focused TOO much on graphics rather than the design/movepools of the pokemon.. it seemed more like they were just testing the 3ds hardware on a pokemon game and rushed the entire development saying "meh we'll make this game bad so the next one is awesome!" not to mention only made like 69 pokemon.. since this is a hoenn remake it shouldn't have to worry about that lackluster ammount new gen pokemon.. they already have most of their animations and designs made.. so I hope they focus more on utilities and enviroment than just making everything 3d and calling it a game.. which btw x/y has very little use of the 3d feature but no body cares to get a seizure anyway.
BUT IT BETTER HAVE MOVE TUTORS!!!.. and no gym/elite four shedinja users ;-;
Over here we have a mall with TWO gamestops in it.. one on the bottom floor.. and one on the second floor... and then .25 miles away from the mall is another gamestop in a plaza..
Century III mall if anybody is familiar with that..
@WillhamBoyGeniu In random play where rankings are recorded what's the big deal anyway.. self destructing to make up for your friend's points doesn't benefit anything because you simply screw up your K/D ratio... so you're not really helping yourself..
Even in gamemodes without ranking or if somebody does decide to do what you said.. you can't control it.. you're going to have trolls here and there and there is no way any filter is going to prevent it.. Where video games go wrong is they try TOO hard to made their titles "bullet proof" and often just ruin the experience for players with strict rules and engines that often screw them for accidental mistakes.. examples being microsoft games where if you teamkill in some of them by accidental blowing them up when they jump in the way or you accidental run them over you get kicked and banned for something out of your control.. I'd hate to see nintendo get too serious with this and follow their mistakes out of competition..
Like several above mentioned.. I wouldn't want to run for a bomb and it explodes before I grab it.. or even get knocked back and my own sticky bomb kills me and I get banned for it. It's engines like these that can go horribly wrong and ruin the game rather than help it..
I just hope the ban feature against continuious self destructs is well programmed.. I don't want to be banned or booted if I accidentally get 3 self destructs in a match.. I can see a major problem here..
I think that was pointless as it affects your ranking overall anyway so who really want to self destruct constantly, nor complain if somebody else is since it's only booting their ranks.
If players left a match 3-5 times early in a row and got banned I'm extremely happy (in case of connection problems give us mercy)
Getting kicked out of the game for being idle for so long, and then getting banned after 2-3 matches would seem extremely awesome.
How did they get a zoomed out view of the prism tower? Is this the new entry/stage introduction.. or is it just a moving platform around the city hidden from camera like delfino island from SSBB..
Maybe when the match ends something in the stage happens (Hence the light turning on)
You can do it for just $20.. gamestop and walmart even sell a little device called the "Powersav" It's an action replay just released for the nintendo 3ds which hacks pokemon x/y and any other 3ds game. Basicly you enter codes into the device (kinda like scripting a computer) and it just automaticly does whatever you want.. it just simply goes in the back of your 3ds like a normal game cartirage.. want a mega latios? There you go.. pokemon has been exploited and now the game is ruined... for online play atleast. I'm guilty of using these devices in gen 4-5 but gen 6 just flat out doesn't deserve this terrible crime.. it's illegal to tamper with someone else's games while this company just lets players get away with it..
Sad to say most of us will never see it in-game in person.. Like one of the first post said.. this will be released and distributed in well developed countries and cities were we will litteraly have to cross the world to recieve.. and then there most likely will be no english releases and they'll all be foreign.. in this case only cloners will keep this pokemon alive.. and thats sad to say.. arceus was the same way but there were many options of obtaining it, legit or not, we were still able to keep the name alive and satisfy everyone. Dancie will be a huge diamond that we'll have to search for, for quite awhile.. I hope gamefreak acknowledges this and makes an exception releasing the premier as well as event at one given time world wide like the release of x/y.. and no "traffic" server crashes either like a certain software we waited forever for..
And this goes for the other two pokemon.. dancie along with several other new legendaries and a pair of mega evolutions as well as a few more bonuses were found by a hacker at the same time as dancie so without a doubt I declare them comfirmed!

On a more serious note yes it was entertaining despite how off topic the whole program was torwards what we were looking for..
But aside from that.. from a more serious perspective the whole hype of it was disappointing when the results came.. majorly disappointing..

Re: First Footage of Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire To Air In Japan This Weekend
Ok, alright alright.. so I'm excited to see what type of phootage they have to offer.. but one thing...
Does anybody speak japanese so they can translate on here?
I'm more excited to hear about things added that x/y lacked (move tutors mainly..)
And then to offically reveal the eons as well (Megias/megios)
