Pokemon Z

Woo another game for me to run through!

Really hope they implement a 'hard' difficulty like B&W2. What else do you want to see in this new game?

Looking for better Multi Battle Setup Feature than the current one we have in Gen 6 Pokemon games (X/Y and ORAS). But I don't expect it to be in there, sadly.

I agree with that, since I suspect the Eternal Floette's importance will be somehow tied to the fate of Zygarde in Z.
I'm once again, though, more curious about what's to come in Gen 7. How I wish they'd start dropping hints about that rather than Z.

[quote=baroo]While "X/Y 2.0" will likely be great and all--I'm all for Zygarde finally getting some attention--I'm more interested in what's to come in Gen 7.
Still curious as to what importance "flowers" will have in Pokemon's future.[/quote]

i mean it [i]literally[/i] is named and based off of Kanto and Metro Japan. it's not as overt as Kalos, but then again, most Western players can pick up on references to France rather than Japan.

lmao^
pokemon is an extremely large franchise
why tf would they not be trying anymore
you say it like its a hobby they pursue and are just giving up on it/getting lazy about it

i thought x and y were no different than any other pokemon games, except with some of the things mentioned before such as the lack of new pokemon, bad post-story, etc
it wasn't horrible, i actually enjoyed it aside from those two things but i think they wanted to try and approach pokemon differently since its the first on the 3ds
im for sure for sure sure the next games(s) will be better, although it was a remake ORAS was pretty good imo and i think it shows that the franchise is still trying

my point is pokemon is still pokemon

My point is that Pokemon X, Pokemon Y is only one step higher more creative than Pokemon 1 pokemon 2....at least colors are somewhat descriptive while x and y makes it seems like they are just named in order they come off the factory line. Like they're not even trying anymore.

[quote=ecarina]Gen 1 was primary colors
Gen 2 was precious materials
Gen 3 was gemstones
Gen 4 was more precious materials
Gen 5 was "colors" (depending on whether you consider black and white to be colors)
Gen 6 was axes (since it's a 3D game, so there's the X axis, the Y axis, and the Z axis). Alternatively, X and Y could refer to chromosomes, due to the symbol used for Mega Evolution, though Z doesn't fit in this category either.

Also:
Gen 1 was based on the Kanto region of Japan and was literally called Kanto. They didn't even come up with a different name for the region but [i]now[/i] the creativity river is drying up? Hell Gen 1 had Grimer/Muk, Voltorb/Electrode, and Seel. If anything I'd say Pokemon is getting more creative.

I hope this doesn't come across as too aggressive, it's the internet so it's easy to misinterpret things.[/quote]

What you interpret x and y to mean doesn't change the fact that its the same as Pokemon A pokemon B etc.

Enough Pokemon to make Kalos actually feel fleshed out. Megas are nice and all but 68 Pokemon is pretty pitiful, especially when compared to all the stuff Gen 5 introduced.
