The day it was released I got the game. Though I did get the wrong one I don't even care; Pokemon X and Y is amazing. I love the Mega Evolutions and that when you progress through the game you get every starter from each region. Instead of the classic Running Shoes you now have Roller Blades. Plus it's cool how you come from a different region where your mom is a well renown Rhyperior Racer.

if you haven't seen the official Pokemon list then here ya go:

Mega Evolutions: In case anyone is wondering there are certain stones(or can be considered as orbs) that cause the evolution for certain Pokemon. Certain stones(or orbs) for certain Pokemon. For example: there's the Blasoinite Stone for; you guessed it Blastoide. And the Torchic you get as a DLC when you purchase selected copies has a Mega Evolution stone and an ability that it wouldn't normally have.

I'm probably gonna get that game once I get a 2DS. It looks awesome.

it is awesome :D
the thing that bothers me is that only Pikachu does it's normal thing. what i mean is that Pikachu is the only Pokemon that makes its noise or something like in the show. other Pokemon do their cries known through the series but Pikachu just goes "Pika-pik."

lol there's even a Pikachu spoof

Froakie, I never really used him as a main part of my team though. I usually stick with my kangaskhan or my tyrantrum

i need to get kangaskhan and tyrantrum. i chose Chespin without knowing what the final evolution looks like.... a tank
i have a friend whose little brother got a female Fenniken when he first started

I'll play that game. I'm so excited to see my childhood send to a new level..

:D
i grew up playing Pokemon and it's getting bigger and bigger through my continuing childhood
i give it a 10/10

This will make my childhood better,though i doesn't got the game but i'll just spend some time by watching on it.
Also the thing makes this cool is the 3Dness,This seems the tradition Pokemon game which has 3d stuffs(Except the building and suchs in the older version).If I have money :C

I was going to buy this but the whole Mega Evolutions kind of made me look the other way, it's just a little overkill if you asked me. Did anyone else kind of notice that idea was kind of taken from Digimon?

Oh well, maybe I'll eventually get it or something. Other than that the game looks pretty cool.

Screw it. Digimon is still the best.

This is a Pokemon X Y discussion, make your own fucking digimon topic if you really think digimon is better.

This generation has successfully rekindled my interest in pokemon, because it feels like they really sat down and worked out how they could make the series feel new and refreshed without decimating what makes Pokemon fun in the first place. I hated Gen V, started Black and played for 5 hours before putting it down and never touching it again. To me it was just more of the same shit they've been doing and it stops being fun when you're basically playing the exact same game for years.

Pokemon X & Y have genuinely useful improvements to the UI, it's a lot faster to get around menus than it was in previous games - something I've bitched about for years as it was just plain bad UX the way they had it before. Also, you can now assign more than one key item to X, which again is something I've been fucking wanting for years. When you press X with multiple items assigned to it, it opens like a sub menu where you press a direction on the D-Pad to access the item you want. I makes having a bike and a map easier.

I've said this elsewhere but I still think the movement controls are lacking. They've sort of improved with the analogue movement on rollerskates and the bike, but the skates are velocity based movement making it insanely difficult to be precise, forcing me to use the D-Pad for movement if I want to do anything accurately. I hate that tile-based movement, as it sort of shows that even though the game has 3D models now, it's still using the same engine it's had for a long time. If they had just stuck with a more controllable analogue movement, that wouldn't be a problem to me, but the standard tile-based movement gets annoying fast when they're constantly changing the camera angle on you, especially because they have it so that up means forward one tile no matter what the angle of the camera is, so if it should be Right = Forward I get really confused.

So far the story has been so-so. I haven't had as much time to play it as I'd like because I'm sharing my 3DS with my girlfriend who has X (I have Y), and I've been playing a lot of GTA V while she plays X, but I'm really waiting for the story to pick up and introduce some sort of reason for me to keep progressing other than fighting gym leaders. Some kind of conflict I need to overcome and figure out. As of yet I'm not really feeling any sort of urgency to progress so I just grind a lot.
