Based on chromosomes obviously.

I almost cried with joy and I ain't ashamed to admit it.

The first time since HG/SS (and before that, FR/LG) I was legitimately excited about a new Pokemon release. I was wondering what the hell they were going to do about names, because I think they may have exhausted their original supply. Any ideas on what they'll call the inevitable third game in this generation (lol)?

I'm really looking forward to this, but really, fucking remake Yellow. Seriously. Why have they not done this? Gah.

Also we need more Snap. And Pinball. Gosh, Nintendo. Get it together.

This is a giant goddamned leap in the right direction though. Plus they still haven't mentioned the usual home console spinoff series.

Can't wait.

I haven't beaten a Pokemon since emerald/ruby/sapphire. I owned a DS for a while, before the top screen broke... but it looks like I may be buying a 3DS for this.

I actually screamed like a child watching this live.

This pleases the Grace.

Pokemon has been doing such a great job since Pokemon Black and White was released, really happy to see this. At the same time I think I'd be a lot more excited about a console Pokemon game... a proper one; my favourite Pokemon games were Colosseum and XD & I'd love to see that make a comeback (Pokemon Revolution was far too lacking in any form of freedom besides battling).

[bluntsword]

Want.




Bad.

[IAMFORTE]

Sqeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Must have!

[Gracie]

I might have to ban myself from some parts of the internet to avoid spoiling it.

The wait to october is going to kill me.

[tSwitch]

I think it's safe to say that I am excite.

Based on chromosomes obviously.

That was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the X & Y announcement.

[tSwitch]

I thought X and Y on a grid, Mathematics.

[LoganF]

X and Y being based on chromosomes sounds reasonable, though. Sounds to me a bit like male and female versions.

Either that, or they are getting really stuck for names.

Pokemon: The Second Brotherhood

Original text:

"the second pokemon game"

...8 translations later, Bing gives us:

"The second brotherhood é Monday play"

E Monday play?

[TDS]

Either that, or they are getting really stuck for names.

Or they're trying to setup "Pokemon Z" with Dragon Ball cameos.

Any way you'd make me a Froakie avatar?

thank you very much

It's on the 3DS and there's the X, Y, and Z axis in a 3D plane. Makes sense to me.

So Z will be the special edition one released later?

[chewey]

New starters are nice but the legendaries are shit as always. And I wonder why they're not adding free movement with the introduction of full 3D. Looks a bit hokey how the dude can still only walk in straight lines and turn in right angles.

Kinda burnt out on the series after BW2 so I'm not all that pumped for these games. The new, cool stuff they did with B/W already felt pretty tired in the sequels so I dunno. I don't know what they could do to freshen up the series again.

Yes. If it is a gender reference, then the special edition could be XY or XX, or however genes work.

Gotta love how the ugliest part of the trailer is the video thumbnail.
