I'm not sure what to think.

I'm gonna need to see the fully evolved starters.

Anyone called the Hawaii region?

Kinda assumed it was Hawaii from the concept art they showed off. That wasn't the general assumption? Haven't been following speculation much.

 

[Menitta]

Can't wait for the rush of memes

 

[Diprosalic]

shame is that we got an Owl, a Cat and a Seal all of which we already had before.

Meowth in a regional dex!?

Megaton

 

[MicH]

FUCK EVERYTHING

Europe gets the games later AGAIN. November 23

 

[SliceSabre]

I'll give Popplio a chance, he's looks like the starter everyone will bully.

 

[TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared]

Hope thats a world wide release date.

 

[Ushojax]

The region looks really small, unless there are multiple islands.

 

[kraspkibble]

think i'll pass on this. doesn't look all that great. yet more terrible pokemon designs.

 

[Chase17]

Human proportions.

Humans everywhere.

I will not stand for all of this Popplio slander. It's amazing. Heck all three starters are amazing, hopefully their final evos aren't crap like gen 6.

I guess we can play as ghosts (the first option) if we want. Cool.

 

[ArchedThunder]

I was wrong and we got a lot of things and I apologize for being a dick and saying we wouldn't see all the things we saw.

It is a fitting punishment that we didn't see the female trainer, the only thing I wanted to see.

Justice is cruel.

Did you even watch the trailer?

 

[Macka]

Can't say I'm loving any of the starters tbh, but those legendaries look great.

 

[maxcriden]

Yup, it's Hawaii

Only the owl doesn't look ugly

Not sure what to think of the legendaries

Gen 6.5

Isn't it confirmed to be gen 7?

 

[jj984jj]

That cat looks like an ugly Houndour. The owl is the best looking one.

Yo, was that fucking Tanner from that Nintendo E3 ad from last year at 0:25?

EDIT: Eh, maybe not.

 

[WPS]

The new pokémon designs haven't grabbed me yet BUT YES THAT OVERWORLD DESIGN

Begone, foul grid! No one loved you.

The music was a little strange. The pokémon theme consists of a few set bits and then each version fills in the rest how they want, but this one was definitely taking parts from an older one (I think RSE?).

I hope we see some of the older mons soon. The battle art style looks similar but I can't tell if they've abandoned the washed out sugimori colours or not.

 

[RagnarokX]

Man, Oshawott has be dethroned as ugliest water starter.

 

[Toadthemushroom]

The overworld visuals are a huge step up - now rendered in the same detail level only previously preserved for battles and cutscenes (like when you first meet your friend in OR/AS).

It's nice seeing the "detailed" character models and environments almost everywhere now.

 

[Menitta]

I also don't like the male protagonist design at all. Striped shirt? What the hell?

 

[Clov]

Litten looks so cute! Going with that starter for sure.

 

[Azuran]

wait

why are people shitting on Litten

holy fuck I don't like cats but I feel defending Litten

Grass and water fans are already salty they're on the wrong side of history this time.

 

[Regiruler]

I saw a fuckload of pop in.

Why can't they just perfect what they already have ffs.

 

[Valahart]

Alright, I'm impressed. Disn't like the water starter but the other are cool. The fire one in particular is such a fresh design for pokemon. I wouldn't expect that collor pattern.

 

[Berordn]

Still no overworld 3D so I wouldn't call it competent.

Baby steps. We've got non-grid 3D overworld and 3D trainer models showing up in battle alongside the Pokemon.

Stereoscopic 3D is going to have to wait, we don't want to overwhelm poor gamefreak when they're finally just catching up.

 

[Wensih]

The added races to pick from at the start finally!

 

[Delio]

wait

why are people shitting on Litten

holy fuck I don't like cats but I feel defending Litten

Yeah same. It's cute and already has a devious look to it.

 

[Boney]

Fem trainer once again is the better design.

 

[Javier]

Rowlet is cute.

Litten is cool.

Popplio is meh.

 

[Drop]

Not really feeling any of them, I guess the owl is kinda cute.

Also if I hadn't seen those guys on the boxes I'd be calling for mega Pyroar and mega Noivern.

CUSTOMIZATION IS BACK!

 

[yanipheonu]

The female doofy little hat is adorable.

 

[OmegaSmash]

Non chibi overworld :wow:

 

[Bremsstrahlung]

Aww yeah, grass/flying.

Character customization is back? Sweet!

 

[chaobreaker]

Yooo I don't remember XY giving us that darker skin. Fucking sick.

I also don't like the male protagonist design at all. Striped shirt? What the hell?

This has customization so you can always swap it out.

 

[The Boat]

Shit, that looks amazing!

 

[Dark Cloud]

This is the greatest looking region ever! Hawaii!

 

[Blue Ninja]

Litten's final form is gonna be Fire/Dark, calling it now.

Kinda assumed it was Hawaii from the concept art they showed off. That wasn't the general assumption? Haven't been following speculation much.

I hadn't really been following, which is why I asked. I was still thinking we'd get southern Kalos. :lol

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Rowlet and Sun version for me.

 

[ffdgh]

JP Trailers confirms you at least can pick your skin tone

YES! Now give me outfits again and i'm set.

 

[Regiruler]

Baby steps. We've got non-grid 3D overworld and 3D trainer models showing up in battle alongside the Pokemon.

Stereoscopic 3D is going to have to wait, we don't want to overwhelm poor gamefreak when they're finally just catching up.

I like the grid world, and the 3D complements it very well. It's like a diorama.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

November 18 boissssssssss

 

[Emperor Hol Horse]

I like the Pokemon designs. Definitely better than Gen 5.

 

[papertoonz]

Bulbasaur is poison. Cause gen 1

yeah i know but after bulbasaur they never did it again, but hey

Another video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2r0_F-_ClcQ

hey customization now people will stop bitching about being gone cause it wasn't in a remake of gen 3

 

[BahamutPT]

Okay, this is too cute

 

[Nanashrew]

Still runs at 15fps on battles

Realistic proportions on people looks bizarre I no like

Region seems nice though

There's no way they'll be able to fix that until there's new hardware. The Pokemon models have a very high polycount. There's actually some emulation happening getting X&Y to play at a higher definition and every Pokemon is as round as can be.

 

[GhostTrick]

Still no overworld 3D so I wouldn't call it competent.

I thought it was thought from what we seen. Full scale at least.
