Pokemon X and Y - Gen VI for the 3DS (SPOILER WARNING)

Togepi is Fairy.

Nice. Normal/Fairy or just pure Fairy?

Isn't in any Kalos dex?

Now that's interesting...

Pure Fairy. Togetic and Togekiss are presumably Fairy/Flying.

I was hoping they'd retcon Togepi like that.

It's probably just a mon you can only get in the post-game.

i.e. National Dex.

Which means that most of the older mons can be caught only in the post-game.

Stuff like Mareep, maybe?

EDIT: This is all so hard for me to take. I don't have a 3DS... T_T

There's a whopping 450 Pokemon in the Kalos dexes, so less than half the prexisting Pokemon need to wait for postgame/importing.

Mareep is in the Coastal Dex.

And not most old Pokemon. There's 382 old Pokemon in the Kalos Dex. That's more than half of Gens 1-5 Pokemon.

Okay, WMG time.

There is a Mega!Kyurem which will be what the "original", pre-Reshiram/Zekrom Kyurem was.

Fletchling evolves at Level 18 into Fletchinder.

I'd really love that although I'd be concerned about what its stats are.

I wonder if there'll be Mega Aggron. Aggron's my favourite Rock-type ever sooo...

If I give in and get the game and a 3DS,

• Delphox
• Mega Charizard X
• Mega Gardevoir

Are confirmed for my team.

p.s. If it wasn't already obvious, I pick my team based purely on their design. :x

p.p.s. Come to think of it, if there's Mega Scolipede, it's getting a slot on my team, guaranteed.

I assume Mega!Kyurem would have phenomenal Attack and Sp. Attack stats, since those were the most significant changes between Incomplete!Kyurem and Black/White!Kyurem.

it looks like the request I put in to lock the YMMV page has been ignored. super.

The Togepi line is pure Fairy? That means immunities to Dragon and Ground?

Cue a bird embodiment of happiness laughing as a land shark tries to beat it up to no avail. Outrage? Not happening. Earthquake? No effect. Garchomp is boned.

Also, not complaining about the relative dearth of new Pokémon. That's been the pattern with even generations.

Between Gens I, III, and V they introduced a grand total of TWO Pokémon related to previously introduced lines (Azurill and Wynaut).

Togepi line is Fairy, which means Togetic and Togekiss are Fairy/Flying.

That makes Flying the only type that is paired up with every other type. Water has yet to be paired with Fire.

I think this is new. Misty Terrain description.◊ Protects all non-airborne Pokemon from status effects. It's basically Fairy-type weather.

Decent as an anti-air tactic, too.

So it's basically a full-field safeguard for non-flyers.

So much for weakening Dragon moves.

I highly doubt we'll be seeing any new Rain Dance/Sunny Day-style weather effects.

Looks like this gen is going to be very light on status effects like poison in meta game. Huh.

What do you mean? Like weather with ability and move support that you could build teams around? Because yeah, it's unlikely we'll see teams for the new weather, though it might be possible in another generation or two.

I meant more the whole "strengthens type X, weakens type Y", but yeah.

"Big Size" Gourgeist?◊

I'm more interested in that crazy shit on the bottom screen.
