I also had another dream but I don't think it's as related, or appropriate to talk about

I voted that I don't really care. It wouldn't really impact the experience of the game for me at all, not that I wish for him to go. It's just not precious to me.

Fun question time: if Sakurai only shows off a couple more newcomers (think next E3) and drips all of the veterans by the time the game is released, saving most of the newcomers for when the game is released, would you be upset? Personally? I wouldn't be. As long as Nintendo takes a page from Pokémon X/Y and does a worldwide release for the game, cutting down on the amount of time other people have to leak everything, I can salvage some of the surprise. I don't have the fortitude to stay away from gaming sites for a 3-4 month period.

Same here pretty much. Not even counting 100% on there being a Pokemon veteran or something revealed just prior to X and Y's release, much as it would make sense.

As long as I get to see at least one of the characters I really want at that point, as well as a reveal for Mewtwo sometime earlier, I'll be fine.

I wouldn't be upset either, Unlocking newcomers would be sweet. just as long as I don't unlock some awakening character.

So this will be a game that will change Pikachu. Many think that it will be the reveal of Mega Pikachu.

The following info comes from a feature focusing on Tsunekazu Ishihara, the president of the Pokemon Company.
- he will appear on Japanese TV on October 28th
- mentions an unprecedented game whose development started this Summer
- the game is said to change Pikachu
- Ishihara is worried about how the change will affect Pikachu's popularity

They want a console seller. Trust me... this WILL be a world-wide release (especially because they will need to support their BS story that cut-scene leaking was a detriment to the enjoyably of Brawl). I am so confident, that if it isn't, I will never like a post again. NEVER.

Well, seeing as how popular Pikachu currently is, I wouldn't be surprised if it got a Mega form, though I'm not certain how it's popularity would be affected. Thing is, Mega forms have so far only applied to a Pokemon's final evolution, or Pokemon that don't evolve at all. But Pikahcu MAY be an exception given it's popularity and being the Pokemon mascot and such, though it would seem redundant with Pikachu being able to evolve into Raichu, and whether Raichu would get a Mega form or not should Pikachu get a Mega form, it doesn't make much sense to me either way.

Why are we discussing Pikachu getting a mega form if the game in question isn't X or Y? Seems like they're talking about a new game entirely, which it would be weird if Pikachu only mega evolved in that one specific game.

Thing is its going to be a new game, announced 4 weeks after x and y are released.

It could be an event mega and isn't released until AFTER that game is released

How do you evolve a Jigglypuff? The same way you evolve a Pikachu. With the use of a stone, so perhaps, the mega evolution applies to the final evolution of a Pokemon that isn't evolved by a stone. This might entail that Eevee would get a Mega Evolution if you don't evolve it (that way they don't need to make one for each Eeveelution or they don't have to give just Sylveon a Mega Evolution). I know it is a stretch. It is just a theory I have.

People keep saying this. I don't think what the community interpreted is what Sakurai meant when he was talking about those cutscenes. I understand where he's coming from.

Please elaborate on your interpretation of the quote. I am not really sure what you are implying. Just give me your perspective on the situation.

I am honestly looking forward to the change. Pikachu is a really bland and uninteresting Pokemon. I was so excited when he could learn Surf... just because it is something different.

Why don't they just make all Pikachu be able to surf?

So, how long until the site itself updates? Since we're so close to the end of the week, I'm a bit paranoid if the banner was to go down all of a sudden.:laugh:
