Pokémon X and Y - General Discussion

[Dio Brando 5,810]

I don't think giving a fighting chicken Crunch would make any sense. I think it'll rely on punching/kicking moves rather than its fangs. Its what Blaziken does. 

You still can give it U-Turn which can be as effective especially if you set up Sword Dance and give Blaziken the Focus Sash in case a Powerful psychic type move is coming

I'm not going to do that. I'm going to try to get both. Wynaut get both? Is there a problem with getting both of them? I think NOT...

I'll try to get both,but I initially wanted to get either Froakie or Chespin since I unfortunately got Emboar in my BlackWhite 2 which became useless after a while but I might get Fenniken since I already have a Blaziken

Blazekien is ubers already, I cannot imagine what MegaUltraChickenBlazekien will be. I already have a set in mind. All I need to know is new moves it will get, but it's move pool should suffice.

It would change competitive battling but it won't "ruin it" 

 

Lucario can still be countered with Fire,Fighting,Ground type Pokemon as he was

 

Blaziken is still weak against Water,Flying and Psychic 

 

So it all really boils down to how you build your strategy...those Mega Evolutions are not instant win tools

 

The only time that competitive battling could be broken is when they allow Mewtwo,Arceus,Dialga,Palkia,Darkrai, and other powerful legendaries to be used in Tournaments

In what could be described as an Evolution beyond all Evolutions, Mega Evolution is a new, awe-inspiring transformation certain Pokémon can undergo during battle in the highly anticipatedPokémon X and Pokémon Y video games. Pokémon that Mega Evolve will tap into hidden reserves of strength and power that have never been realized in their regular Evolutions, giving players battling with a Mega-Evolved Pokémon a dominant advantage. Mega Evolutions will revolutionize Pokémon battles and usher in a new Pokémon transformation never before seen in the Pokémon world.

 

Pokémon like Mega Mewtwo and Mega Lucario will harness the power of Mega Evolution in battle and will see their looks change and stats increase, giving Trainers a great advantage against their opponents. Some Pokémon that Mega Evolve may even change their Ability or type while in battle. Only certain Pokémon, under certain conditions, can Mega Evolve, and unlike regular Evolution, Mega Evolution only occurs during battle—once the battle ends, the Mega-Evolved Pokémon will return to its usual state. One crucial element to undergoing Mega Evolution is a particular kind of item called a Mega Stone. Mega Stones are special stones that exist for all Pokémon that can Mega Evolve, each named after the Pokémon to which it grants power. For instance, the Lucarionite Mega Stone will help Lucario Mega Evolve. Mega Stones are hidden throughout the Kalos region, and players must find them to unlock the incredible power of Mega Evolution.

 

One Mega Stone, Blazikenite, will not be found during normal gameplay in Pokémon X or Pokémon Y. Players of the new titles will need to participate in a special limited-time Wi-Fi distribution event via Nintendo Network to get a Torchic holding a Blazikenite Mega Stone. This is how players can receive the Blazikenite Mega Stone when the new titles launch. The character distribution begins October 12th, the same day Pokémon X and Pokémon Y launches worldwide for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems, and this distribution event will only last for a short period of time. Players will need to evolve the Torchic they receive via the distribution into Combusken and finally into Blaziken in order to harness the power of this Mega Stone and Mega Evolve Blaziken into Mega Blaziken.

The Torchic received in this distribution also has the Hidden Ability Speed Boost, a very powerful Ability that increases a Pokémon’s Speed at the end of every turn. This limited-time character distribution event allows players to get a Torchic with Speed Boost, which becomes incredibly effective once they Mega Evolve Blaziken into Mega Blaziken.

 

Brand-New Method of Pokémon Training: Super Training! 

Super Training or S.T. is being introduced in Pokémon X and Pokémon Y, allowing players to help their Pokémon grow stronger when they’re not in battle. On the Touch Screen of the Nintendo 3DS system, players can have their Pokémon participate in Super Training, activities that will increase a Pokémon’s base stats, the underlying values that define its HP, Attack, Defense, Sp. Atk, Sp. Def, and Speed stats.

One Super Training activity involves having Pokémon train by facing huge Pokémon-shaped Balloon Bots in a virtual space, with both sides trying to shoot balls into the opponent’s goal. Using the Circle Pad and Touch Screen to avoid shots from the Balloon Bots while landing their own in the goal, players will enjoy this action-packed feature while increasing their Pokémon’s base stats to help them become stronger for battle.

For a more casual way to help Pokémon strengthen their base stats, Core Training lets players set up training bags, earned by completing Super-Training Regimens, for Pokémon in their party to use. Pokémon will work on Core Training by themselves, raising their stats on their own. By tapping on the Touch Screen during a Core Training session, players can help their Pokémon increase their base stats, too. Players will be able to see how their Pokémon are doing at their Core Training at any time from the main Super Training screen.

 

By emitting radio waves from its antenna-shaped whiskers, new Electric- and Fairy-type Pokémon Dedenne can communicate with far-off allies. It can also plug its tail into outlets to drain electricity from them. Its Ability,Cheek Pouch, is new to Pokémon X and Pokémon Y. If a Pokémon with this Ability eats a Berry during battle, it will not only reap the benefit from the Berry, but the Pokémon will also be able to regain HP. Dedenne can learn the new Electric-type move Nuzzle, which looks cute as the user nuzzles up to a target with its cheeks fully charged, but it’s quite dangerous! Nuzzle will do damage while paralyzing the opponent.

Bunnelby is a new Normal-type Pokémon that creates its den by digging in the ground with its large, shovel-shaped ears. These powerful ears are strong enough to chop right through thick tree roots, making them a force to be reckoned with in battle. Bunnelby can learn the Ground-type move Dig. On the first turn, the user burrows underground, and on the second turn, it attacks! In Double

 

Battles, a Pokémon can use Dig to avoid its ally’s attack and then dish out damage on the next turn.

It is now known that Skiddo evolves into the already announced Gogoat. A Grass-type Pokémon, Skiddo has a gentle nature and is said to be the first Pokémon to live alongside humans. Because of this relationship, Skiddo doesn’t mind carrying people or supplies on its back, and it has become able to read the feelings of its riders through their grip on its horns. Skiddo can learn the Grass-type move Leaf Blade, where the user wields a sharp leaf to slice like a sword.

 

Introducing Gym Leader Korrina

Korrina is the Gym Leader in Shalour City, a seaside town known for its amazing views. It’s also home to the Tower of Mastery, which seems to have a connection to Mega Evolution. Gym Leader Korrina seeks to draw out her Pokémon’s strength to reach still greater heights, and it’s said that she may hold the key to Mega Evolution! In addition to being a Gym Leader, Korrina is a fantastic roller skater.

Super training kind of reminded me of KH3D. Also, MegaLucario is a Jamaican mon.

[Dio Brando 5,810]

Is Super training a part of the new Pokemon Amie feature ????

[OmegaForte 1,674]

Yo my friend thought the same thing. lol

 

Also there has been 1-2 online tournaments host by TPCi that allowed all. The most recent one is an example. Yet it didn't ruin it.

Actually,both Pokemon Amie and Super Training reminds me of KH3D.

 

But again the Dream Eater petting also reminds me of Nintendogs

FOUND ON TUMBLR:

The Worlds 2013 opening ceremony has revealed Mega Kangaskhan. In its mega form, Kangaskhan has a new ability called Parental Bond that allows both it and its child to attack. This allows Kangaskhan to use the same attack twice in one turn.

That ability is sweet.

 

 

New Model for Kanghaskan. Cool!

 

 

Are those Megas going to be exclusive to a game? If so, I may need to get both. Wait! They couldn't, because...Y should be to get the Torchic, too, right? So then...

 

 

 

 

Awesome.Oh god. I need to re-write my list for like the fourth time!

Mmmmm,as far as I'm aware Xerneas and Yveltal won't be a version exclusives.

 

Other Legendaries didn't do it so it won't make sense to do it now.

 

Anyway. I REALLY WANT TO CATCH A KANGASKHAN RIGHT NOW ^_^

 

SOME ONE GIVE ME FIRE RED SO I CAN GO TO THE SAFARI ZONE

[Shana09 5,769]

What do you mean Xerneas and Yveltal aren't version exclusives?

[Dio Brando 5,810]

What do you mean Xerneas and Yveltal aren't version exclusives?

I mean that you can catch both in the same version,example:If you got Pokemon Y,you still can catch both Yveltal and Xerneas.

 

Reshiram and Zekrom were not version Exclusives for Black and White

 

Ho-oh,Lugia and Suicune were not version exclusives.

 

Dialga and Palkia were not version exclusives,heck even Giratina

 

It won't make sense to make sense for them to make those two out of all mascot legendaries to be version exclusive

They were version exclusives.

Reshiram for White, Zekrom for Black.

Dialga in Diamond, Palkia in Pearl.

Groudon in Ruby, Kyogre in Sapphire. 

 

Kyurem, Rayquaza and Giratina appeared in all versions in their respective generation because they are the third Legendary of the trio, but didn't have the role until the 3rd version or sequel to the games. 

 

It's already confirmed Xerneas is exclusive to X and Yveltal is exclusive Y.

 

I honestly don't realize where you got this idea from.

 

Only Gold and Silver had its mascots obtainable in all 3 games in the 2nd generation (and 4th generation remakes).

Oops,my fault,I mixed up the informations in my head when I got my Zekrom through trade

 

I'm so so so so sorry,I messed up.

 

I mixed up everything since I played Gen 2 so much that I used to get all legendaries

 

Anyway,that means I'll get the Y version for me,and the X version for my brother

Kangaskhan can now be broken if utilized correctly.

 

Just the fact that you can use Earthquake twice after an attack stat boost is awesome
