they thought enough to create the title "Pokemon Direct", so my guess is that there will be more of those down the road. the entire non-trailer segment of the pokemon direct seemed like they were getting at something else. i'm sure there's a lot left unmentioned still.

I think at the end of he direct Iwata meant they'll release some old Pokémon games for 3DS VC. (and can trade with X/Y, MEGATONS)

I don't care about battling. I did try to understand the systems and, while they are easy to understand after some time, it's so much hassle to get the perfect pokemon that I simply don't want to waste my time.

So I focus on the singleplayer. Loved Gold/Silver/Crystal, with multiples caves with secret shit.

It's pretty easy if you know how to make them legal. Don't even have to use an Action Replay :)

I don't really play competitively, but if the CPU is going to use teams of perfect Pokemon in Battle Subway and PWT, so am I.

long overdue. I'll definitely be there day 1. But oh man, those graphics are horrible. It's obvious this game like Pikmin, started on older Hardware. At least they have 8 months to tighten things up.
 
On my White, I've got about 630 of the Pokemon. Mainly ones carried over since the start of Gen 3, including a few from Colosseum and XD :)

Some of my Pokemon have been with me for well over ten years. Mind blown.

It's happening.

Can't have this being lost on the last page.
 
Can't wait for Pokemon XXX.

If the games get sequels called XX and XY (the Japanese logos for X and Y feature DNA Helix's, so they're double referencing both co-ordinates and chromosomes), then we will be abbreviating it as XXXY, so you may just get your wish there, kinda.
 
No glasses:


This is at 6:21 in the Japanese video. Character customisation confirmed?

Actually, unless I'm crazy and am seeing things, it looks like the glasses are still there, they were just too scared to jump over to the other side.

Look carefully at Dennis's gif and you'll see what seems to be the glasses glitching out and remain where they were before the protagonist swings over.
Of course, the interesting thing about that is that it begs the question as to why the glasses are a separate model?
 
Are you going to be fighting five million geodudes while exploring dungeons in this one again?

No, just the new cave Pokemon that will become equally annoying to you by mid-game, if not the moment you see them due to their similarities to other cave Pokemon.

Noob question: can you use all your pokemons in each posterior game?

Like, I can transfer all my pkmns from 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th gen to Black/White?

i wouldn't be surprised if every single Pokemon game is created directly off of it's predecessor. it's probably much easier that way, with how complicated the games have gotten.

When I was a kid, I never dreamed of completing the Pokedex, and now Im two Pokemons away in completing it. Fucking event legendaries screwing people living outside NA. I still dont have Meloetta and Keldeo :(

Also Scrafty your OP sucks, no screencaps, no link to the trailer.

So when can we expect a media blowout or more Pokemon?

Yeah, lucky I found the starters' images from the second or third page of the thread. Important material should always be gathered to the OP, these threads go forward too fast if one is just looking for the basic info.
 
Did they mention how many Pokemon are added and if its like Black/White where they were all new and nothing that adds on from prior gens?

In the UK they still force you to go to GAME for some even though 90% of them were closed.

It also involves going to GAME.

Just use the Internet for all of them Nintendo.
 
Looks a little rough round the edges but I'm so glad they've finally made a 3D mainline game.

Looking back to Red/Blue and Gold/Silver there will likely be a similar leap in visuals for the second set of 3D games.

X and Y will print money for Nintendo, no question about it.

No, it's really not. I don't have time to waste 20+ hours just to create one. Not talking about exploiting the RNG too.

Oh wow, you're right. Guess there's still some work to do on these games.

Depends.

If by first-gen, you mean that you have FireRed/LeafGreen, then yes, yes you can. In order from oldest to newest games:

You can send Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald/FireRed/LeafGreen to Diamond/Pearl/PlatinumHeartGold/SoulSilver, which you can send to Black/White(2), which you can sent to X and Y.
 
Potentially over 700 unique models with animations plus the various locations, trainers, event scenes, music, and such.

You do know that this is 3ds not a ps3 guys.

It looks fine where it needs to... The battles.

It looks janky in places and the franrates is pretty bad but The worst looking 3ds game tho? Come on

I think they always have two teams working on two different games, they wouldnt be alble crank up a pokemon game every year otherwise.

I wonder if this will change this generation. There's no reason anymore to have a local event now that the 3DS is a true online system and the worldwide release and whatnot.

They fixed this in Black/White.

Besides it's all about Repels. You really don't need to train with wild Pokemon with all the trainers in the games.
