Pokémon X & Y Developer Roundtable Summary Thread

I doubt there will be transferring from app -> G4/5, only G4/5 -> app.

Probably the app will be able to poke at the game data directly, just like Dream Radar was able to insert Pokémon into your B2W2 games. I think that should be a significantly different process, technically, from connecting a DS game to a 3DS game wirelessly.

There's no reason that they can't make a pokemon box type app that dumps your pokemon data from a DS cart into the app which can then be transfered to X/Y.
 
Have previous Pokemon games included furigana? That language option might make it useful for people learning Japanese. Might want to try a Japanese playthrough myself the second (or third) time round.

Before Gen V, there is no kanji support for almost all of the game

Starting from Gen V, it's selectable

9:50: Stronger bonds allow for more critical hits or evasion in battle. A new type of wild encounters called "Horde Encounters" (as many as 4 wild Pokémon appearing at once) detailed. Designed to make wild encounters more challenging and thrilling.

I like this idea. Was always on my mind when I thought to myself "How do you make Pokemon a better single player game?" That and "boss modes" for legendaries.

Clauncher's cute! I hope it doesn't end up sucking like its fellow crustacean brethren (sob)

All hyped now for the new games! Can't wait to pet a big fat Crobat. Aw yiss.

I'm dizzy right now. Beyond all hopes I actually managed to see this thing live.

One bit that I don't think anyone mentioned here yet was that during the battle between the seahorse and the lobster, someone's health dropped into the red-zone. It didn't have the BW-type of music change, and the regular beeping alarm started sounding instead. I could hear a few murmurs here and there about the annoyig alarm returning as it happened, but then after about a second the beeping stopped.

So... I think it only sounds for a money when you ente the red zone and doesn't bother you or the music again.

Can anyone confirm if there are still Ribbons? While they couldn't be earned in BW/BW2 they still showed up on an extra stat page for earlier generation Pokemon.

I like everything they released, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed. I was expecting a little more information from such a long event. I was really hoping they'd show the starter evolutions so I could pick one already.
