The new May/Brendan designs are interesting. You can actually see Brendan's hair now and can tell that he's wearing a hat. Finding out that was a hat originally was such a mind-blow'er.

It was a hat?

I actually wish it wasn't a hat. It would have been cool for him to have anime white hair. So far Kris is the only. :(

omg steven <333
they haven't butchered him yesss

I'm not fond of how they made May and Brandan look cuter, but I still like them. I'm going with May and Torchic. C:
And even I miss May's bandana already, her bow is actually something I would wear so I'm cool with it.
and wtf happened to maxie

Now that I think of it, they do look kinda dumb.

Mega Sceptile and Swampert look pretty boss though. ...But come on, Lightning Rod as Mega Sceptile's ability?

I'm loving Mega Sceptile (but I also think it's just the pose making it look epic), and still love mega Blaziken. Not sure about Swampert though.

I like the new looks of Team Aqua and Team Magma. It's more suiting to their themes actually. Like Aqua's design, they're pirates. While Magma are like devil-ish and seismic scientists.

Aww I love how they did the text boxes. ;w;

Mega Swampert looks freakin' boss. He definitely goes to the same gym as Ike and Knuckles.

There is a method to the madness my friend. Sceptile has a base speed of 120 making him super fast. He is also grass type. Grass plus Lighting Rod help to prevent any loss of speed. Cause guess what? Sceptile cant be paralyzed via Thunder Wave due to Lightning Rod and he cant be Stun Spored due to his grass typing Plus he already has a great special attack stat at 105. You can bait somebody into using an electric attack via switch in (given that its in mega form already)

Also note that all we know about these mega forms are what they look like and what their abilities will be. We dont know what stat buffs they will get yet and i'd b willing to bet Sceptile gets a speed buff

Poor Archie... what have they done to you...

Um... I gonna go with some variation of this conversation:

"So how can we recreate Team Aqua's character designs so the XY engine can better showcase them now that they won't be sprites?"

"Uh, take every pirate stereotype imaginable and apply it?"

"BRILLIANT! This man needs a raise."

I hope Nintendo and/or Game Freak would consider some sort of Team Aqua viral marketing for International Talk Like a Pirate Day. <.<;

Glare greets mega sceptile with open arms

I am loving the new mega evolutions. Diancie looks too much like a Japanese anime character mutation thing for my likings. Swampert has been at the gym for 11 years and look where it's gotten him! Sceptile is looking more and more like a badass Christmas tree tailed gecko, lightning rod suits him (trees attract lightning if you didn't know).


(Also yay for my return after like a year)

Welcome back and true. Glare would work on it....but so gew pokemon can learn it o.O and if it becomes Grass/Dragonthen the only effective pokemon that can come in to use it would b Arbok and Seviper. Literally no pokemon with Glare outspeeds a Sceptile, they pretty much have to predict a set up/recovery move or take a hit to use it

I will b running with Omega Ruby as my "main" game. With that i will be selecting Treeko since i am assuming the mega stone u get is based on ur starter. Seeing as i already have Blaziken's mega stone i might as well pick the other two starters for the remakes

If dunsparce were to get a mega evolution he would probably be neck to neck with mega sceptile (dunsparce is the most frightening, fear-inducing pokemon of all, he could learn). I'm going to be selecting mudkip even though sceptile is my favourite, mainly because mega swamperts design looks way to good for me not to use it. I'm likely to be going with omega ruby, I mean groudon is basically a Godzilla pokemon, Godzilla is crazy awesome

You guys can laugh in my face now.

Anyways

Swampert looks stupid. I never liked him anyway. SCEPTILE LOOKS LIKE A ****ING BOSS. May looks kind of....different... But I like how they designed Brendan

Wait isn't Sceptile the first grass/dragon? Whoaaaaa

*Slow clap* touche' but Delcatty would HAVE to have a mega with buffed deffense for that to work lol base 70 speed isnt gonna cut it and base 55 special defense means it aint gonna take any hit well

can't wait to have my old team again (delcatty, blaziken, altaria, gardevoir<3)

i will deffinetly change sharpedo and golem though

Geico gets even awesomer!

Here's your 5 bonus points.

But only a couple people will understand the true reference.

uh Brendan looks hot
I wanna play as him *^*

*fangirling*

Okay yeah I change my mind I'm not playing as May

The Frame Rate looks much more better then X and Y making the game play look fast but the battle scenes are the same.

November 21st Release Date!

Preeetty

I wonder what the creepy black area of doom at the top is?

And based on an image of a town, it seems the center and stores are separated again. Still not many answered questions about secret bases, contests, Pokemon-Amie, or trainer customization though. Oh well.

Nice eye!

Europe has to wait an extra week ;~;

serebii says that Primal Groudon is apparently Ground/Fire

If you look here you can see Archie And Maxie have mega stones. So does this mean mega sharpedo and mega campurut? or any new megas that are water or fire types?

Mega Wailord maybe? lol This is interesting, but at the same time those could just b for them to turn Groudon and Kyogre into their primal forms

MEGA SABLEYE HYPE!!!!

Ruby Exclusive right? Anyways, I hope they make his attack lower and defense higher.

Are they gonna do the same as they did Mega Mawile? :0

mega wailord that would HUGE

oh god mega wailord

i want it to happen

i feel like sabeleye is like: hey guys look at this pretty stone i found!

if it happens then we need a mega skitty to go with it

I'll just leave this here... Not really anything new, other than a confirmation for the release of Diancie in X and Y but they dont say when.....

New evolution scene.

I hope those are remade move animations. They look amazing!

On the note of Mega Sceptile -

Lightningrod as an ability is much more versatile than just as a way to keep back paralysis. While that is an added bonus, Mega Sceptile can do soooo much more with it. Especially in a Doubles format like VGC or Smogon Doubles. I personally don't play Smogon, but I do play VGC, and Mega Sceptile's resistance to grass and Lightningrod ability pretty much eliminates one of the biggest threats in VGC - Rotom Wash. Also, since the format is Doubles, M-Sceptile works well on a Discharge team. It would be gimmick-y, but M-Sceptile with Lightningrod is extremely versatile, and its seeming like his speed and special attack will only go up, so he will be a monster when he is available for use.

Mega Swampert use is obvious. The website also said that they're going to up his attack, so he'll be Swift-Swimming EQ's everywhere.

We got a "Want the mythical pokemon, Diancie? Find out how to get her soon!"

Long, long ago, there appeared in Hoenn two Pokémon of fearsome power. These two became known, in later times, as Groudon and Kyogre. When Groudon howled, the earth swelled and the land grew wide. The sun blazed overhead, and all the world around the creature was enveloped in incandescent heat. When Kyogre roared, water poured forth and the seas spread outward. Dark clouds enshrouded the world, and the deluge fell upon all.

It was a primal age, early in the world’s history. The natural world was overflowing with energy. That energy granted Groudon and Kyogre an overwhelming power. Seeking ever more of that energy for themselves, the two clashed again and again, and their battles cast the people and Pokémon of Hoenn into great danger. Brimming with the overwhelming power granted to them by nature’s energy, their transformation was named "Primal Reversion" by later people. And the people called their tormentors Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre.


-then they took a Rayquaza to the knee*ninja star'd*


That legend is awesome I always thought that it was just there normal forms that clashed in the legend, but they werent.

Also more about the new Primal forms

Groudon becomes part fire type along with his great attack stat becoming stronger and his weight crushes his original score of heaviest pokemon around.
Also his ability will be gaining some kind of "boost" in the form of a hidden ability. Also he has a move that has "Spears of rock wrapped in magma stab out at the target"

Next we have Kyogre's primal boosts
His special attack gets a boost (Like how Primal Groudon does for physical attack) and he has a hidden ability (like groudon).
Also Kyogre's body becomes more then twice it's length upon Primal Reversion and he gains a move that "pillars of water assault the target"
