Feel free to post them, but I'm not going to be able to add them to the OP because I need to go to work in about fifteen minutes.
Thanks a lot, though!

This brings to mind news I'd heard of near 1,500 competitors caught out by Nintendo using hacked Pokemon.
This is possibly the best news I've heard so far. Eliminating hacked Pokemon whilst still maintaining a means of transferring Pokemon from older games.

My hunt for shiny charmander shall begin when XY come out. Black mega charizard should be a sight to behold!

Well, it probably is tied to whatever account you've been using for the online service. Note that they said it will be able to be used for "future titles"...
With all the Pokemon data stored on their servers like that, this is probably going to be the way to transfer Pokemon from gen to gen going forward from here on out.

Wouldn't have to worry about hacks so much if they removed the IV system...
Maybe.
I don't really care if they want to use hacked or legit Pokemon to be honest.

So that's why M.Charizard and M.Venusaur got good abilities and M.Blastoise got a cruddy one?
I can't get over the wrist cannons. They're the most amazingly stupid thing I've ever seen, but that's the charm.
PLUS HE HAS A FUCKING GOATEE.
Oh yeah, your Global Link account. Makes sense.
They probably wouldn't be dumb enough to screw this up, but I'm slightly concerned about what will happen to your stored Pokémon when you stop paying the fee.

Nothing interesting in this Bomb, wanted to see more new pokemon, don't care much about cloud or mega pokemon.

Megarizard is OK, Megasaur is well, basically the same, but Megastoise fucking sucks. It looks like a fanmade evolution, it's terrible.
If it's using the same Stadium/PBR/Black/White WiFi checking stuff, then it will not stop people who meet all the requirements of a legit Pokemon: such as needing a Trainer ID, Location of where it was caught, EVs that do not exceed 510, as long as it doesn't have max IVs in every stat, and moves that the Pokemon naturally learns and/or gets via breeding.
The only way they could actually *stop* it is if the Pokemon actually had any sort of red flag on them caused by the software. But they don't, because the software used to make them... doesn't alter the Pokemon in that way. It's just another step up from a Gameshark/Action Replay, like where you put in a code to make a certain Poke always appear in the wild. That Poke you see in the wild is from the game, you're just cheating to catch it in the wild but it doesn't change how "legit" it is at all.
It's not so much figuring out a work around as it is just knowing what GameFreak's requirements are for a Pokemon to be considered legitimate and not hacked.

You guys should check the menu sprites
So good
Except the problem with MC and MV is that their non-mega abilities are much better. Their mega abilities are crap.
At least MB's Mega Launcher complements its set. Venusaur wrecks shit because of Chlorophyll. And Charizard manages to try because of Solar Power.

Pretty much. I guess they could figure out legitimate movesets for Gen V to include event only moves too if they really want to.
Nah, it's good for it.

Ahah! I knew it!
You mean the best.
Why so? You start the fight as Charizard, but because Zard is slow its enemies can kill it instantly.
It's not the best thing to buff it, but it gives it some really nice use for sure.
Kinda crummy they just don't let u store to the 3ds SD card in X/Y to get past the ingame limit ( which u will surely hit if u import old gen Pokemon via bank trial), and basically force u to use an app behind a paywall.
I was expecting a thread title like :
Pokemon X/Y : Using the power of the cloud !
when I first saw this
GAF did not deliver
Pretty uneventful Direct, and annual subscription for the bank is stupid, but it's always nice seeing japanese devs like Masuda speaking about their games with such humble passion, it's a refreshing contrast with western devs.
Now every Pokemon in it's final form has a Mega form or what ?

I really hope the introduction of mega-evolutions doesn't mean there will be less totally new Pokemon.
Simpy, you change. It's also a Mega with huge I guess Sp. Atk. I don't see that it's a bad choice, even though Dragon with Levitate would be better.
Surprised it's so cheap!
huh, it starts from December 25th??
So 5 bucks a year? Yeah I could easily live with that.
What's that in British pounds?
That would mean about 5 per year?
Cheap enough
Until NoE ups it to 10, yeah.

We still don't know if changing takes high priority or occurs during your turn though. Either way, because Zard's typing isn't changed, he still gets screwed with rock slide or stone edge.
This is why Ninetales, even a shitty Pokemon, is considered the best Sun lead. Doesn't die quickly to stones.
Zard however works with Solar Power, by boosting its SAtk.
We don't know if it's priority based or Pokemon-based. I imagine Mega Mawile will be screwed like that if that's the case still.

Anybody notice that Charmander's cry sounded completely different in that video?
Eh? Two months after the release? That's bad...

Wish Blastoise got adaptability or something
Wish it got No Guard or Motor Drive.
Mmmm Motor Drive Blastoise

Yeah, they're fixing the Gen 1/2 cries since half of them were direct copies of each other.
