Nintendo's first official broadcast of the year has revealed some exciting news! Two new Pokemon games are going to be released for the Nintendo 3DS. Pokemon fans, we have generation six: Pokemon X and Pokemon Y!
For the first time in Pokemon history, the game will be released across all regions simultaneously in October 2013. Gameplay footage looks impressive, with lush environments in full 3D.
The battle scenes follow suit, demonstrating a dynamic and fluid camera that is more akin to Colosseum/XD-style battle.
Furthermore, the three starters have been announced: Chespin the grass starter, Fennekin the fire starter, and Froakie the water starter.
We've also had a look at the new legendaries too, though their names have not been announced!
The full video is available for viewing at the Nintendo Direct Archive. Exciting times ahead! What features are you wanting in these new games? Will you be getting them when they come out?
The grass starter could be a wee bit cuter, but it looks good in all honestly, can't wait to see what they do with it! The battle animations look like dragon ball z budakai
Not certain if I like the starters (though Suprisingly this is the first time since gen 1 that I may go for the grass starter first time through) would love to see the full evolutions I have to say though I was extremely excited when they showed the Legendaries definatley a step up from Incarnate Form trio (also not sure on the others but I assume Fennekin is roughly based off the Fennec Fox of the Sahara)
It looks great, mainly the pokemon battles. I really liked the starters (and i hope the other forms too) but the legendaries don´t seem to give the authority a legend really should. I´ll probably buy it anyway, but i hope it gets always better
Finally releasing it worldwide, but that just makes it seem like it's less time since the previous game, which in America will be about 2 1/2 years after B/W came out.
Also, I remember lots of people expecting a Gen III remake before the next generation. It'd be cool if you could make your 3DS Mii into your trainer, with trainer clothing, or a customizable trainer.
I feel like the legendaries and 2/3 beginners are recycled from previous generations. Arceus/Sawsbuck and flying Groudon? Croagunk/Seismitoad, eevee/skyforme shaymin? Losing originality, though Fennekin and Chespin are cute.
I am so excited!!! :D I am definitely getting both games and Fennikin looks simply awesome! I like both of the legendaries (first time this has ever happened)!
People are saying this region will be worse than unova, but I think it is too early to say that. Pluse, Unova was the worst region, but it wasn't terrible.
Well Xerneas and Yveltal look cool.... and I think Sylveon may be a grass,normal or fighting type. I'm very excited about X and Y versions. The 3D graphics look awesome.
Kind of I hope there is a 3DS rom for this game.... my parents allow me to play only on emulators. My current games: 1.Pokemon White(NDS) 2.Pokemon SoulSilver(NDS) 3.Pokemon White 2(NDS) 4.Pokemon Sapphire(Gameboy) 5.Pokemon FireRed(Gameboy)
It looks good, but it also looks like it's gonna be one of those long-wait-time games. With all the extra camera pans and animations; unwanted wild Pokemon encounters will take significantly longer than we're used to. But I will definitely be getting probably the Y version and starting with Froakie.
