Starters always use moves they get way later in early footage. Fire types are always using Flamethrower, Water types use Hydro Pump, grass uses Solar Beam (or something leafy).

The attacks do look more vicious now in 3D.

From all of the negative discussion of Froakie's design at the beginning of this thread, I'm surprised to see Froakie taking the lead as GAF's favourite starter. I'm completely in favour of Team Froakie though! Froakie is just awesome. I have to give thanks to Gamefreak for maintaining killer design choices when it comes to the Water starters.

Huh. I only just realised this was called Pokémon X and Y and not Pokémon X Version and Y Version. Right?

Yeah, it's a first.

Will probably save money on boxart printing for every country that's not Japan or Korea, lol

Colors. What do they mean.

JokerOfSpades · (01-09-2013, 05:33 AM)

...Considering that all three starters use their main moves on a Pokemon that's weak to them, perhaps we can figure out what type their second attacks are by looking at who they're attacking (and if they have second types)?

For example, the people who said Froakie was using Close Combat are probably right - it would be super-effective on a Patrat, a normal type.

Ehh, Fenneken used it's second attack against a Kirlia, and that move was most definitely not a dark attack.

I tried designing my own Fennekin evo. Kinda turned out looking like a generic Flareon/Nintetales fusion, but oh well. :3

Well, not really - Fennekin using (fire attack) on Munchlax and (psychic attack) on Kirlia for example.

I don't think it's Close Combat though - looking at the other attacks in the trailer, they seem to take cues from their old animations - Aura Sphere, Wish, Aerial Ace, Solar Beam, etc. I think that CC would involve those kick/punch icons in its animation.

It looks more like Thief to me. If not Thief, maybe Quick Attack, but I'm leaning more towards the latter.

Dammit, I was trying to watch the trailer before I made the post... I thought Fennekin used Flamethrower on something else.

Yo, that swag spin he hit before his crackhead style beat down rush was baller.

Forceatowulf · (01-09-2013, 06:02 AM)

Really liked what I saw. Yeah, the over world graphics are kinda rough, but the battles looked extremely well done, so I'm good. New starters are nice. (save for the Oshawatt wannabe in green. Lame.)

All I need now is customization to be announced and I'll probably for the first time ever purchase both version simultaneously. at launch

Fennekin is definitely my starter. PokeFrance gon' get this work.

AniHawk · (01-09-2013, 06:04 AM)

hey i can have an entire team of fire starters. nothing can go wrong there.

RDR was 10 pounds of shit in a 5 pound bag, and people gobbled it up and asked for seconds.

Mass Effect 3 will have superior gunplay, and people will whinge and moan to the ends of the earth.

I'm not sure how, but my guesses are all good so far...

Maybe I've grown accustomed to Nintendo now.
