Region Map:

Pokemon X and Pokemon Y legendary and starters:

Other new Pokemon:

Fairy Type:

How Fairy-type Pokémon and moves will fit into the battle landscape has yet to be fully revealed. But it is known that Fairy-type moves are super effective against Dragon-type Pokémon! Until Pokémon X and Pokémon Y, Dragon-type Pokémon had only two weaknesses: Ice-type moves and Dragon-type moves. The new Fairy type changes the balance in a big way!

PSS:

Connect and play with other Trainers at any time with the new Player Search System (PSS), which allows you to find other people playing Pokémon X and Pokémon Y! You'll connect to other players nearby or around the world through the Internet. You can even communicate with players you've never had any contact with before.

All you need to do to communicate with other players on the PSS is to tap their icons. Then you can easily choose to trade or battle with them. That's not all the PSS can do, so look forward to more info on this exciting feature in the future!

New Ways to Battle:

Horde Encounters

Sky battles

Pokémon-Amie!

Spoiler

Show your Pokémon some love with the new Pokémon-Amie feature! Play with your Pokémon, give them treats, and even scratch and pet them using the Nintendo 3DS or Nintendo 3DS XL system's Touch Screen.

You can use Pokémon-Amie at any time to play with the Pokémon that are in your team. You'll need to play with them over and over to learn their preferred way of being cared for. Treat them well to make them feel loved. Treat them badly, and they may show their displeasure!

The more you play with your Pokémon, the friendlier they will become. As your Pokémon becomes more friendly, it may perform better in battle—by avoiding opponents’ attacks, landing critical hits, and more!

 

[Dead End]

From Tsunekazu Ishihara's in a note
I'm interested in the anime, I kinda wish they would let Ash beat the PWC and then move on to a new saga with a new main character.
Also "Utilizaing the 3DS to it's maximum abilities" sounds interesting, the 3DS has so many new features; Streetpass,Spotpass,Gyroscope,Motion Sensor, IR, Pedometer, ect. So many ideas come to mind!

ash sucks ass he was suppose to end in 1999 yet they change their mind :/

i wish they would have stick with the original end to the series

 

[Rizsparky]

He's such an iconic character though, when the main guy from Digimon was replaced it sucked!

 

[Dead End]

Even if they don't replace Ash, they should either have the movies based on the games and leave Ash out; BW2's anime trailer was epic, I wish they did more like that.
Or make a separate anime based on the games for the more grown up audience.

'The game uses an innovative communication system that makes it feel as if you are playing with other players around the world'

I wonder what that means. Perhaps online voicechat with your Pokemon friends as you adventure through your own game. =P

 

[Guild McCommunist]

Ash is a generic male protagonist that you could replace with, god forbid, someone interesting and no one would care except for nostalgia fetishists who would go "YOU ARE KILLING MY CHILDHOOD" because they tried to make the series not so terrible and on the low, pandering end of children's cartoons and products.

 

[sliver123]

will the old team rocket come into the new games ? and double region into game with more gym badges like they did with pokemon gold,silver,crystal ?

Pokespe seems a better choice nowadays, since the series is so well know over the world, but the cartoon did what it was meant to do: Make children (us at the time) to play/know/want/ pokemon.

i bet that if pokemons existed since decades/ages ago, you would go like ash to win a championship.

Hopefully some kind of multiplayer kinda like they almost did with B/W, where you can go explore someone else's world. I want the secret bases from gen 3 to show in this as well

 

[Black-Ice]

I knew the pokemon anime was fucking up when they decided to warp time and make ash still 10, despite many scenes where they have commented about years passing, forever destined to make the same mistakes and crash out the pokemon leagues to a random guy in the quarters every time.


On a more relevant note, I want to see what the starters evolutions are like, then I can make a valid decision on which i'll pick.

I'm secretly biased to water types. Because they can use ice moves :3

 

[Deleted_171835]

I'm super-hyped for X/Y. I still miss sprites but the cell-shaded style actually doesn't look too bad.

That's just cold, dude.

Personally I'm going to pick the fire type, simply because the others look stupid. #lookdiscrimination
