^ I thought the names were placeholders too.
But I think they have a nice ring to them.

they really screwed over mod creators with the naming X and Y? what could you do with that.... Pokemon eXtreme?
Since when do rom "hackers" have to choose a name related to the original game's name?

I think Fennekin is cute, I'm planing on buying both when they are out. I'm so excited to see a new generation and having it on the 3ds.

- Didn't watch vids in the OP
- Thought "X" and "Y" were just placeholders.



Man, they've seriously ran out of names? What's next? Pokemon A and B?
Actually if you look at the Japanese icons, they have some sort of color ball which resembles DNA.

I see a lot of hate for the titles of X and Y.

I like those names a lot. And frankly I find them to be the best names I could think of to succeed Black and White. I mean the color names had been done to death, and the jewel names didn't really work for me. I don't know what else you could go with at this point (assuming it would be a one word title, while the remakes are always two words), I mean you could go with season, Pokemon Winter, Pokemon Summer, etc. but those sound worse to me. I dunno, X and Y sounds just fine to me, and I was quite pleased when I first saw those were the new titles.

Anyway, the games look great. Seems to be based on a France location this time around. I guess, from here on out all Pokemon games are going to be based on different countries of the world, of course gen 5 was based on the US, gens 1-4 Japan, and now it seems Gen 6 is based on France.

Love the graphics, I'm curious as to what other treats these games hold, past regions? Or at least 2 regions like gold and silver, I would love that. How much of an online element will it have? Will there be a tie in Wii U game (much like Colosseum for gen 4, and the pokemon stadium games for gen 1 and 2). So much to look forward to. One thing is for sure, come October, the Pokemon franchise has my money again, after not having received it since Platinum, and before that Silver.

I'm wondering if this gen is actually going to entail a lot of Pokemon? I noticed a lot of old Pokes in this game, so I'm wondering if they're showing them to keep the other 6th gen Poke's under wraps, or if there really aren't alot to add to begin with. Which in all honesty, I wouldn't mind at all.

As pointed out by someone on youtube, the fact that in the start of the video you look at a a mirror suggests their will be character customization to some level. Idk if this has been mentioned yet.

Lugia have a brother/sister?



That aside, interesting name, some many ways to look at it but foreshadows genetic a bit, which pokemon is all about.
