dude... that looks freaking epic...

and the fennec! OH GAWD!!! THAT FENNEC!!! ADORABLE!!! XD

my exact thoughts xD

finaly a REAL 3D pokemon game ;3

My initial thoughts from seeing the vid were the following:

1. Whoa...a pokemon game for the 3DS...and the graphics/animations/3D world of the latest region and whatnot being explored, HOT DAMN. A must-reserve-ASAP game for 2013, methinks?

2. Another new pokemon game already in development? And it'll be out around the 3rd/4th quarter (October, from what I've found so far) of 2013? Didn't Black/White 2 come out just a few months ago in October 2012? ;^^

3. Of the three new starters, the fire-type one actually looks pretty cool...and more than likely, the starter that will have more Rule34 fanart the MOST. XD

For instance - http://www.furaffinity.net/view/9643308/ . Once again, HOT DAMN.

4. I actually started getting back into pokemon games after I had pretty much quit them about 3 years ago (the 'main' games, not the "Mystery Dungeon", "Ranger", "Conquest" series, what have you), starting with HeartGold that I picked up last week. I don't know if I'm going to have enough time to get that game completed in time for X/Y Versions, let alone Black/White and then its sequel...oy. ;^^

5. Huh, so apparently there are letters being used instead of colors/precious metals/gems now, eh? Also, X and Y........who wants to bet there will be a "Z" version sometime after X/Y along the line? (Consdering that Red/Blue versions got Yellow Version, Ruby/Sapphire got Emerald, Pearl/Diamond got Platnium, etc.). Makes me wonder if I should wait for a while after X/Y come out to see if a Z version will be in the works or not. Save some money that way, and all that with buying one game instead of two.

Other than that...kind of curious as to what was the idea/significance/concept behind naming the 6th gen. pokemon games "X" and "Y". :/ Can't help but think it's a 'gender-related' thing, but that's just me. ;^^


Guess I'd better start saving up for it...though money in my budget for games is rather tight right now. ;^^

we had a lot of similar thoughts...

as for the X, Y, Z, somebody theorized it is to represent the transition to the 3rd dimension, you know... X axis, Y axis... then Z for the 3rd dimension.

As for the games coming out this fast? I'm pretty sure it's related to fan complaints... a lot of fans wanted a pokemon for 3DS, not a "new one" as black and white 2 for DSi. B&W2 were good tough, and remain good, I'm still playing it and trying to "finish" it, gotta capture my kyurem and get my legendary with the DNA splicers :D... back to topic, Nintendo was on the works for 3DS already so I take it they rushed the development. Is coming out 3rd quarter of 2013 anyways so, announcement is there but game is not finished and ready... who knows how much more stuff they will add....

that's a long wait, enough to get ready, finish any other games and get ready for the madness
