I'm slightly annoyed with myself now, I told my Aunt I'd go with her to London on X&Y's release date... I'm not going to cancel though since it's all organised now and I'd be leaving early in the morning (No business men at the weekends!) and getting back pretty late, hopefully either GAME or Amazon will send their copy early... (I pre-ordered Y from GAME and X from Amazon)
Though I could benefit from starting a bit later, though that would mean I wouldn't be going in blind...
In terms of my starter, I really can't choose! Since Pokemon Bank doesn't come out until December, I might use Y to try out two of the starters and then trade one to X once I've 'finished' the game and then PokeBank the other. Y's going to be my mess around and challenges copy- Also to get one extra event Pokemon that I can giveaway.
I hope these games have a good, entertaining post-game, BW2 had a good post-game but I did get bored of it quickly.
