Old Pokemon General(RIP)

[Prof Gallows]

Team Rocket exploited pokemon to steal money. Teams Aqua and Magma were trying to harness the power of Kyogre/Groudon to raise the sea/earth. Team Galactic was trying to create an alternate universe. Team Plasma was under the impression they were saving pokemon, but they were really just trying to separate humans from pokemon so their leader could be the only person in the world who could control them.

So it leaves a lot of options for new teams, just no idea what.

I vote these ones want to give all of the Eevelutions hugs.

Maybe they'd want to run genetic experiments on the pokemon? Could fit into the whole theory of X/Y standing for chromosomes.

Though the whole 'creating the world's strongest pokemon' thing has already been done. Though if it referenced Mewtwo I'd be all over that. I friggin love Mewtwo.

It's been done outside of the games. I would absolutely LOVE it if we could have the whole genetic experiment happen in game.

 

[Prof Gallows]

I was under the impression that X and Y were referencing the fact that the game is completely 3D rendered.

Genetic experiments go past Mewtwo as well. Genesect being the newest example.

Has it been confirmed that X and Y are specifically for the 3D?

Granted, the version legendary mascots don't represent the whole genetic experiment thing, so that theory doesn't exactly apply...

 

[Prof Gallows]

It hasn't been confirmed, but it seems the most likely case.

Speculation is fun though. The ideas people have been coming up with are really interesting. Maybe there will be a Team 4D where they stare at the screen and talk to you.

Team 4D? Why not just make a first person Pokemon game all in all? It'll hide the stalking trainers more. And it will only be on the
3DS. If it was on the DS they would mention WAAAY sooner, back when the trailer was out.

The fact it's called X and Y is most likely due to it being on the 3DS and being able make the game in 3D.

I wouldn't like a first person game, though. That would bother me, because there wouldn't be any advantage to having the game in first person other than limiting your view, which isn't really an advantage..
I like the way it is. Having the top down view lets you see the whole area.

I guess you're right. It's been in all games, why change now? But in X and Y... sometimes its not top-down now. It's more closer to the bottom. Well, that's sometimes anyway.

Creative camera angles to add depth mostly.
At this point though, I'm way more interested in the battle scenes. The overworld looks nice, it really does. But I'd love to see a full battle and the menus.

I wonder what the little side thing will be. I hope they just bring back the original contests from Ruby and Sapphire. I liked those.

Will it be Dream World compatible?

I'm pretty sure they will. They just updated it for 2-3 days for BlackWhite 2. And I'm guessing there are only a few handfuls of new Pokemon added to the International Pokedex.

 

[Prof Gallows]

I was hoping they'd do something new in regard to dream world. It's fun, but I'd like to do something IN GAME.
Maybe bring back secret bases and add on to it even further. Hollow wishing though, I doubt that'd ever happen.

Secret Bases? You just brought my heart to nostalgia

It was really fun. Maybe they will connect it to Dream World so it will have more online connectivity.

Am I the first person who thinks the new eeveelution looks like a butterfly?

 

[Prof Gallows]

Like I'd mentioned before, I really want some more serious/tough/scary pokemon.
The cute stuff is getting difficult and I think is really unneeded.

Take Parasect and Paras for example.
The mushroom on it's back takes control over the pokemon, essentially leaving it's body a lifeless hust for the mushroom to control. That's flipping awesome.
Shedinja's body doesn't move. At all. It's body isn't even a body, it's hollow. Looking into the hole in it's back steals your soul.
Chandelure burns people's souls for fuel, forcing their soul to disappear and rejecting them an afterlife.
Xatu is silent and unmoving because it is so completely shocked by the terrible things it sees in the future. And in some pokedex entries it says it stares at the sun all day.

We need more stuff like that.

edit: AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON HYPNO.
This pokemon steals children so it can eat their dreams.

Shedinja is terrifying because if you've ever used it in battle, you've technically had your soul stolen.

I did love the contests from ruby/sapphire but I actually liked Diamond/Pearl's better. Maybe I'm the only one who thinks that. I wish they would make the more like the show's contests. Those were always so neat.

Drifloon tries to steal children away and bring them into the underworld.... but it always fails because of how light it is. Also, it's apparently made up of the spirits of people.
It's both adorable and scary ._______.

And I agree that there should be more scary/serious pokemon. They make the series more interesting :3
