Pokemon X and Y announced for 3ds

[Rydian]

you're not looking hard enough. the squirrel has at least 4 pictures. and that's without checking pixiv.

Pixiv never keeps me logged in so I'm always too lazy to check it, just going off of what I saw on r34, e6, and a quick browse of FA.

I don't get the whole squirrel hate btw.

It's ugly and looks like a stalker pedo in a costume.

Mononoke Hime referenses, that was what I thought when i saw the deer.
They should let us ride big pokemon already, like an Arcanine or a taurus.

 

[Chary]

This looks promising. Very promising. (But I kinda miss the traditional sprites and everything.)

 

[pasc]

GOD ABOUT TIME !

Looking good

Hard to choose between the versions thought... X or Y ?? hmmm...

 

[solarsaturn9]

I like the half cel-shaded look. But I wonder: will they update the Pokedex Pro Application to include more realistically rendered versions of the new pokemon? I just bought Pokedex Pro and soon it will be outdated

 

[Valwin]

Why do people give Garbador such shit? "OH MAN A GARBAGE POKEMON HURR HURR". Because I'm sure they're 5 generic bird Pokemon, 5 generic rodent Pokemon, and so on were just so original.

At least they chose something different instead of taking the same animal and making it look slightly different.

THIS

also grimer is just mud yet none says shit about them

THIS

Because Grimer is NOSTALGIC and MY CHILDHOOD.

Also no one scoffed at Castform, the Testicle Pokemon.

In the words of Barry Zuckerkorn, "Those are balls."

Where are you guys getting 8 / 360 movement from? I'm telling you, this is 4 directional guaranteed.

Also, is it just me or does the actual game (overworld, not battles) look HORRIBLE? I mean, check out 0:23. Nintendo need to learn some anti-aliasing and mipmap levels because this kind of 3D really puts me off.

If you're going to do a 3D game, do it right. Otherwise keep the pixels to two dimensions tyvm.

 

[emigre]

Let us just agree Pokemon designs have always looked fucking stupid.

 

[Chary]

For all we know, this is an early, EARLY beta. There is plenty of time to fix things.

 

[ookamiyoh]

Lugia +Groudon= Y? Or it's just me who sees Y as a bad ass Lugia?

 

[Xanxusz]

they said we're gonna get 20 new pokemons in there? well for the 3 starters add their evolutions that's 9 plus 2 legendary pokes that's 11 and the new pokemone along with evee's dragon evolution that'll be 13, all in all... then there'll only be 7? well that's lame lol... unless they produce a new dragon pokemon that'll be more coller than dragonite!!!

If you have a 3DS you should check out the screenshots of whatever game you have and compare them to what you actually see.
It looks much better on the 3DS (Even with 3D off) than the screenshots.

Plus this is the first video, it's not the final product things can and likely will change

Those were rummours before the presentation, i belive there will be at least 100 new pokemon, no eevee dragon evolution and that the evolution of at least one of the three starters will be something/ fighter

 

[The Catboy]

Looks like the game everyone wanted, the first 6th gen game and it's in 3D.

It looks interesting to me. Now I actually want to see R/S remade with that engine!

 

[Xanxusz]

well they've done that something fighter evolution with the fire starter 2 times, but I guess it'll be either the water or the grass starter would evolve into that fighter type because those two stands in 2 feet I guess, it'd be weird for the fire starter to evolve into something fighter type lol.. since it looks like an vulpix/eevee type of pokemon

 

[Ethevion]

Lugia +Groudon= Y? Or it's just me who sees Y as a bad ass Lugia?

I see it now that you mention it. Looks so bad ass.

 

[Jamstruth]

For all we know, this is an early, EARLY beta. There is plenty of time to fix things.

They have 9 months left until launch. I'd say take at least a couple of months off that for final QA (where only bugs are being fixed) and final game production and shipping.
This game probably isn't "early beta" perhaps mid-beta. Still time to change things but not a huge amount. E.g. it does seem to be grid restricted (judging by the maps shown etc being very squared off) so they can't do 360 movement, maybe 8 direction movement if they haven't added that already.

Oh and some of my friends have nicknamed the Y legendary "Uh-Oh" cause it looks like n evil Hooh

he is talking about the style of 3d which is more like 3rd person mode rather than birds eye. That kind of thing is very annoying, i remember playing one of the dragon quest games with it. The character models are way too big on a handheld and you can't see the surrounding environments. I would have preferred the gamecube style Colosseum games where character models are 3d and look very cool but the environments can be clearly seen as well, no need to move the camera around. I really hope the gameplay footage made it seem larger than it actually is.

 

[gamefan5]

Well, shit. That looks alright, actually... Nintendo stepping it up... the end is nigh.

Also, I'd like to remind everybody about a conversation we had last month:

"RARARA SPRITES ARE AN ARTISTIC CHOICE RARARA NO TO 3D IN POKEMON. NEVER GONNA HAPPEN!" <--- Remember that?

I recall soulx saying something like that. but not other members. XD
