Yadda, yadda, yadda. XBOX1. Blah, blah, blah. PS4.
As interesting as watching paint dry.
Pokemon X & Y is the real shit. Poke. Fucking. Mon.
So seriously though… Pokemon is introducing Fairy Type into the next game. It’s strong against Dragon types. Some old 'mons, like Gardevoir (Psychic/Fairy) and Jigglypuff (Normal/Fairy) are getting retconned with this adjustment.
It will be interesting to see what else will get permanently changed, for the New Pokemon World Order. :lol:
According to leaked rumors: It is weak to Poison and Steel. [u][color=red]Immune[/u][/color] to Dragon. Super effective against Dragon, Dark, and Fighting. Fire and Psychic-type Pokemon take half damage from it. Strategy shakeup indeed. 8)
Well that didn’t take too long (2 weeks), but someone with the online handle of Smealum has successfully hacked the X/Y game and released pics of the remaining hidden new Pokemon that are currently uncatchable. He’s also released info on the remaining Mega Evolutions… or at least those that have stones he can find hidden in the code.
On a total unrelated note: I’ve restarted my game to double up my rare and one-of-a-kind items.
EDIT
Hmm… rather neat reading how the 3DS was broken into. Seems the encryption hasn’t been defeated, but rather, an exploit from the 4.5 version firmware. Nintendo wasn’t quite as airtight proof as they hoped. They tried fixing it (current firmware is 6.5), but it seems shoehorning the old 4.5 still works. They can’t kill old firmware access entirely… or something of that nature…
In any case, looks like hacked pokemon are going to be inbound.
#1: There are too many moves, items, abilities, and Pokemon in the series. He’s looking into consolidating and/or removing things to simplify power creep. He does admit however, that removing Pokemon would cause a fan backlash, so it would probably just focus on removal of moves, items, and abilities. It’s true… a lot of things do the exact same thing, just look different or have slightly altered effects.
#2: He admits they’re running or already ran out of ideas for original Pokemon… that’s why they’ve expanded the list of what can be Pokemon (i.e. ice cream, a set of keys, washing machines, etc). So when critics claim X/Y seems like they’re scrapping of the bottom of the barrel, they might be on to something… There’s officially 718 of them today. Hard to believe it started with just 151.
#3: Generation 7 will be more like Generation 1 (Red/Green), instead of Generation 6 (X/Y).
#4: His favorite Pokemon of all time is Gengar. That explains why he got a Mega Evolution.
