My point is proven. Dragonite is one of the only Gen I designs I feel this way about.
It is a Lupunny painted red.

I'd honestly go for the XL for the bigger screen. I always feel the regular 3DS' screen is too small with 3D on. But 70$ isnt bad for the original. Depends if you wanna save money or not I guess.

Probably not. They'll still make screeches, bleeps and bloops. They finally went 3D and you expect them to make them talk too?

best part about new pokemon is the time between the announcement and the release. waiting for all the new pokemon to pop up with tons of fake insiders we all believe in. never gets old man.
During the holidays there were plenty of XL bundles (with Mario Kart 7, or 3D Land, or NSMB2) for $149.99 in Canada. I'm sure you can find one on sale again at some point.
And yes, I think the XL is worth it if you can afford it. It's much more comfortable to hold than the OG model. It doesn't cut into my hands, the SELECT / HOME / START buttons don't feel like garbage and the build quality is better overall (less reports of scratching on the top screen from the lip of the bottom one, although still a problem with both our XL units). That's not even mentioning the gigantic screen, if that's a reason it appeals to you.
I definitely want to save money. But the huge screen is extremely tempting hnnggg.

No no no, I wast just curious. Believe me, 3D is a big enough step for me. I was just wondering if they had gone the extra mile.

Honestly, how hard would it be to grab a few sound bytes from voice actors? They already started using actual voices in some of the background music in the last generation.
What else would you call this?

Err what? They look like Pokemon.
The fire starter looks like vulpix. The water starter is a frog. The grass starter is the only questionable one.
Gen 1 had: Sludge, magnets, animals, some fire duck thingy, whatever the fuck abra/kadabra/alakazam is supposed to be, and whatever the fuck Poyrgon is supposed to be.

I dunno, I remember Blaziken and Infernape being plenty strong and while I'm not high on their final evolutions, the other ones are pretty cool looking, especially Monferno and Combusken. And of course a lot of people love Charizard so you tell me?
Yeah, fennecs are too awesome.

Textured and shaded 3D models with a solid black outline around them?

I love this comic, but Dragonite is kidding himself if he doesn't think ice wouldn't have a similar effect.
Steadily after the first generation, pokemon have become more and more similar to normal real world animals.
I just woke up. It's... It's... Beautiful... -wipes away tear-. Reading the live/commentary on GAF ( aka the last 3 pages of the last thread) was glorious.
Now I'll read all the 27 pages of this thread. Every.single.one.
Thank you GAF, for riding this hypetrain with me.
HYPETRAIN DELIVEEEEEERS.
I'm getting so much more than I expected. I wanted Gen 6 and SOME 3D, I'm getting Gen 6 in FULL 3d, AND a worldwide release :') Is it october yet?

Yes, it'll be like B/W.
Multiscale (and Roost) made Dragonite a god. Come at me, Ice Beam.

I'm excited for a new Pokemon game in 3D, but why do the graphics still have to be N64 quality? I was expecting models looking as good as in Pokedex 3D.

They are probably still a work in progress and may improve before launch, but what do people expect from relatively large full 3D environments on the 3DS? The hardware isn't particularly powerful.
Regardless of the environments, I think the battle graphics look great. They really nailed the transition from 2D sprites to 3D in my opinion.

Reposting some of the gifs I made.
Awesome stuff. Will be using them on people who make opinions that I disagree with.

Really excited for this even though I haven't played a Pokemon game since gold. Every game, I think about getting into it but I never really liked the character designs of everything outside of Gen 1 (except Munchlax, that dude is dope) and it the gameplay/aesthetics never really evolved. This looks like the jump forward I've been waiting on. Can't wait.

all of these 3 starters would fit in Red/Blue easily.

Worldwide release means Serebii won't be able to warn us about the "no XP tutorial section" anymore.
