Tons of endgame content will make this game a must buy!!!

Otherwise I was thinking of skipping it.
I usually don't mind no endgame, because i usually shiny hunt or train but i do like have stuff to do besides that post game. I hope it comes true. Plus the demo is coming to america now, so there is another point but that is a bit easier to guess.

Welp the Pokemon site crashed already, that was fast. XD

After the hype dies down a bit, make sure you are opted in by Oct 20 to receive emails through the last checkbox in the options here: https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-trainer-club/edit-profile/

Add pokemon@email.pokemon.com to your address book to make sure it won't go into spam.

Can't wait for the English demo~! Sadly we do get it after everyone else. :/ Since the newsletter probably won't go out until Oct 20 then everyone else will get it before then. We do get the full game early though, and the biggest thing is we don't have to scramble around like chickens to try to get a demo code like Smash had us do, so that's the best thing of all imo.

I remember a joke pic about Glalie being a Titan in the Anime Attack on Titans.
Than this Mega appears. I am scared.

Oh and Megasteelix is weird. I am hype, nearly hype enough for Skarmory Mega Hype Dance, but he does look weird.

I'm not sure what to think of Mega Rayquaza. I do like the seemingly Asian influences it has on its design but overall, I think I prefer the regular Rayquaza design. Not a big fan of the more rounded head and recessed snout. I do love primal Kyogre though. Primal Groudon is rather ehh.

Rumor has it that there will not be any way to update XY to be compatible with ORAS features. The versions are being completely phased out for ORAS and will basically be completely invalid in a month.

In other words, it's basically like how the Black and White versions were phased out for Black 2 and White 2.

I do hope people petition them to allow the connection between the two games, otherwise it's really redundant to have them to begin with.

Basically, if the X and Y versions want to interact with Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the latter two versions can't have any contents that the X and Y versions do not have.

Cool Game Freak . Your able to do in the same generation a cross incompatibilities ... Oh and no character customisation .

Looks like a loooong step backward , and do a lot of complication for tournament organization .

Game Freak , you did your job wrong . A game who just have 1 years became unable do to anything ... God , just a freaking Uptade is so complicated ? The Mega-Lati@s are in X/Y ...

You can't legally have a Mega Latias or Mega Latios in the X and Y versions though. At least Mega Blaziken won't be an event-exclusive anymore, now that Mega Sceptile and Mega Swampert are around.

Maybe steal the opponent item and send it into the big hole he has in his chest to another dimension?
Or maybe M-Hoopa isn't a Mega, the leakers are calling it an Alternate Form.

Correct, its stat boosts are only 80 BST, unlike the 100 for every other Mega Evolution (except Alakazam, but that's an oversight anyway).

Alakazam got a natural stat boost regardless of Mega, so yeah.

It could be something more along the lines of Primal form, or just a random increase like Rotom/Kyurem/whatever explained by in-game logic.

Leaks currently saying theres a usable Key Item that changes Hoopa's forme. It's basically like Shaymin's forme change, except a stat boost is included.

Is it related to the Strange Souvenir? I was wondering where that was heading.
Possibly but right now that's a normal item.of course it could become a key one though. I think it will be used in a new region though.

It's not unheard of. The RageCandyBar started off as a regular item, became a Key Item for the remakes, then went back to being a regular item the following gen.

It took some insane luck/skill, but I actually managed to lose the battle against the Aqua/Magma Admins my first run.

Megagross used Giga Impact on Camerupt, faints obv

Sharpedo used Scary Face on Megagross

Mega Swampert used Mud Bomb on Megagross

Sharpedo used Crunch on Megagross while it recharges

Mega Swampert KO's Megagross

Sharpedo used Crunch. Mega Swampert's defense fell

Mega Swampert uses Hydro Cannon, just barely misses OHKO

Sharpedo uses Crunch, brings Mega Swampert down to 50% while it recharges

Sharpedo uses Crunch, Mega Swampert survives with 15 HP

Mega Swampert uses Waterfall, double knockout due to Rough Skin

You have no more Pokemon that can battle


The demo actually resets as Steven heals your Pokemon. As in my Swampert (same nature/characteristic) reverted back to being Marshstomp. Had to beat all the grunts all over again.
