Nope.

Keep that shit a surprise. Mostly to troll the Fennekin fans, of course

fuck you i have to know

What if I pick a shit one and my rival turns up with a fucking stunningly amazing final evo and I fucking DIE

 

[Keyouta]

So each game has 7 language options? Cool!

 

[ElementalMage]

You can choose between seven languages when you play Pokemon X/Y. Every version has every language. Also there's a Korean release.

In the trailer posted earlier you could see a Rhyhorn hanging out in a pool or something.

PSS is on lower screen of 3DS, tracks Friends, Acquaintances, and Passersby.

Tracks two ways - local wireless and the Internet.

Passersby - PSS recognizes other players playing XY. If you interact with one of anyone on that list, they become an Acquaintance.

https://twitter.com/RichIGN/status/344628712618225665
Acquaintances can then become Friends. And you can log and access up to 100 Favorites of any of those three categories of interactions.

Ridehorn.

I'm alternating between this and the NBA finals, I might be the only human being doing this...

That's like when I play certain cds in my dreamcast, I wonder if I'm the only person in history to have done it

PSS (Player Search System) seems like a cool way to consolidate online stuff.

Pokemon's getting random matchmaking

If you can teach spearow fly, you better be able to fucking ride rattata.

I hope the PSS is user-friendly. The player matching thingy in B2/W2 really sucked balls

I thought you were cool Hot Coldman.

this matchmaking type stuff sounds cool

Holy shit, this game will be a great boon for my JP studies!

bro he's hot and cold, how can he be cool

 

[vall03]

woah! 800k JPN characters?!

 

[javac]

Great stuff. Can't wait! October is going to be a killer month.

 

[Busaiku]

Hopefully they answer the important questions.
Such as "is Whimsicott a Fairy type" and "does Whimsicott get Parting Shot" as well as "how buffed was Flareon".

 

[Boss Doggie]

FUCK YEAH RYHORN

 

[upandaway]

I just wanna play randoms with auto-lvl100 and full team (6 Pokemon). If they finally do it I will die.

Various options for battles. There is a default set, but you can change things re: special Pokemon and other rules.

You don't buff Flareon, you simply IGNORE HIM

You haven't played a pokemon game in a while, have you?

it was a bad joke i apologize it was irresponsible of me.

NEW POKEMON? OMG PICSSS

fuck you i have to know

What if I pick a shit one and my rival turns up with a fucking stunningly amazing final evo and I fucking DIE

if recent games are anything to go by, you drop the starter by Gym 6

 

[Acid08]

This sounds pretty ambitious. Any idea how long it has been in development?

 

[Monado Blade]

Looks like X/Y is going to be permanently in my 3DS so I can be that random asshole trainer who asks everybody who passes by for a battle

My rattata is in the top percentile!

 

[Badosh]

Inject those new pokemon in my veins!

 

[javac]

I will sit and stare at this thread for an hour and a half. If this doesn't deliver, my night will be ruined. D:

The background of the Nintendo direct wasn't black and Iwata didn't even wear a silver sequined suit. Life ruined.

 

[JackHerer]

"how buffed was Flareon".

Just give Flareon 1 strong physical fire move and I'll be happy.

Oh, that sounds really interesting. I was hoping they'd make good use of 3DS features; the DS Wi-Fi connectivity was nice, but rather barebones.

Dragon/Flying thing is great tho

If you interact more than once, the game will ask if you want an Acquaintance to become a Friend. Pretty easy system.

Rich Rich &#8207;@RichIGN 1m
Trade screen looks way better. Same idea seeing them pass each other but the visuals are just so much better.

Rich Rich &#8207;@RichIGN 1m
Just saw Save Screen showing a Pokedex count of 113 Pokemon and 8 Badges.

Rich &#8207;@RichIGN 8s
About to see Trading interactions.

Rich Rich &#8207;@RichIGN 23s
Because a Passerby was battled, that Passer has now become an Acquaintance.

Rich Rich &#8207;@RichIGN 43s
Now we're seeing what you see when you're back on the PSS (lower) screen.

Rich Rich &#8207;@RichIGN 58s
Creatures still stay on their sides of the arena, but attack visuals are sleeker, as you might expect.

He doesn't learn Flare Blitz?

Faster trading animation?
Yes please.

 

[Monado Blade]

Having set battle options will be great for EV training or breeding or whatever

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

It's the seahorse and pistol shrimp on the last page.

Skrelp and Clauncher.

Yeah, all new ones debuted today have been great looking. Clean forms, nice palettes. The bat looks like Bat from DDS, so I instinctually hate him at first sight before stopping myself.

 

[Isaccard]

I'm alternating between this and the NBA finals, I might be the only human being doing this...

What's the score?

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

113 New Pokemon apparently and Gym Badges shown.

That's a few more than DP introduced.

EDIT: Nevermind, seems it might just be how many were caught as it's the Save Screen.
