i never completed the pokedex so that would be why transferring didnt do it all for me PP -quietly goes to pokegen the rest-

 

[Kildor]

Sure, but even the games that did have version differences for the overworld had very minor differences. It was basically just a graphics change and nothing more. They'd have to code two separate overworlds if they were to make one version with more land and the other with more water, and I'm not sure if they're really willing to do that.


Remember when people were excited for the Xbox One?

Neither do I.

I didn't even know people were hyped about the XBone.

I completed everything (except pokebank only pokemon) before bank came out on X/Y! It's just more rewarding c:

I remember when I completed my Gen 2 Pokedex (minus Celebi). Those were the good days.

I've had my Pokedex complete since Platinum and just kept transferring, it's kinda sad.

The funny thing is that the hidden text shows up in the quote.

I did too, I remember it being not that terrible. The worst Pokedex to complete was Gen 5, because suddenly all the Pokemon had their evolutions at like level 60. WHY

I hated that so much. Like i was 2 off finishing and their evo levels were 55 and 60 and it was like are you kidding me

Since this is a Hoenn based game, does that mean we won't see any fairy types/Kalos Pok?s? And will me start having to ask if their Hoenn Bred, if so I'll stop Masudering for Kalos bred then.

 

[Murray]

cant wait for this - probs wont be one where i get hundreds of hours out of it, but it should still get its moneys worth. I kinda hope they throw in some unique gimmicks like for eg walking with your pokemon in hg/ss just to make it more interesting.

i have played the heck out of sapphire on an emulator so i hope i dont get bored!

i doubt it. even tho it's a remake of Gen 3 its still classed as a Gen 6 game. also iirc FR/LG and HG/SS were based off their first two regions, and in FR/LG you could still gen hoenn pokemon, and HG/SS you could get hoenn and sinnoh (and you could even get some sinnoh pokemon before the E4, assuming they evolved from kanto/johto pokemon - ambipom, yanmega, mamoswine).
so nope, i really really really doubt they'd boycott Gen 6

yea i kinda agree with this. I really don't have any memories from RSE, but I had a lot from GSC, and that was why I was hesitant about the Gen2 remakes first, because I loved the originals, and I wanted there to be something in the remakes to make it more interesting so it wasn't disappointing, and it wasnt.
But I dont feel much for RSe and yeah, my biggest fear is that ill find it boring lol

I know that in FR/LG it was impossible to get anything beyond Gen 1 Pokemon before you beat the Champion. After that you could start exploring and catch Pokemon from other regions, but before that the game would start evolving into a Gen 2/3 Pokemon and just be like "lol whoops what was that all about".

I don't think the same lock was in place in HG/SS, though I may be wrong.

But if they were to remove a typing they'd have to remove it completely. They didn't do that for FR/LG, seeing as Dark and Steel were in the game in full, and Pokemon like Magnemite had their Gen 2 typing on them. So at least in that aspect I can't see them changing the game.

ya the lock wasn't in HG/SS

I remember when I restarted my HG version and I traded in a gible before I beat the E4.

PRAISE DA LOOOOORD

yesyesyesyes

i am getting so bored of x and y, hopefully i wont get bored of OR and AS within 2 weeks of buying it.

 

[RhinoK]

I'm excited for Sunday. I'm curious whether or not we'd be able to change outfits (alternating between R/S/E outfits would be a novelty heh) if contests will return, if we'll keep the Brendan/May protagonists, what (let's be honest it's practically confirmed) Sceptile's or Swampert's mega forms will look like, if one of them (Blaziken's popularity and the fact he/she/it already has one) get's an another mega evolution, if the graphics are in a similar style to X/Y, etc.
Well, excited is an understatement but even so

They won't reveal all of that right away. I think if we're gonna see Megas of Sceptile and Swampert it'll be much closer to the release date.

I think they'll just show some gameplay, maybe something from the opening or a cutscene, and that's it.

 

[Twilight Sparkle]

Really excited for this game, I got really bored of X/Y quickly after doing pretty much everything, so very excited to get this when it releases. Being able to walk with your pokemon again would be fantastic as well.

I should have paragraphed

I went off topic
I wouldn't expect it'd be too long now
everything always gets leaked anyway woops

 

[Louis]

Could someone elaborate how the game will be? The announcement says it will be 2D with 3D effects. Do they mean 2D sprites/3D battles or 3D gameplay/cinema 3D?
