This looks to be one of the best entries. I'm just waiting for a map of the routes and to see if there are branching points. That's the only thing I'm still worried about. Cannot wait to get a Froakie although all the starters have great secondary forms.

At first I thought Chespin's evolution looked stupid but there's something endearing about it. I'm still going with the froakie master race though

Can't wait to start my new adventure with Chespin!

P.S. I still can't believe how impressive this game looks visually... How did Gamefreak pull this off. It's a technical marvel

Master race Froakie!!!! 

Tyrunt will be mine as well. I'm loving the designs this gen and Pokémon Y is my most anticipated game. Buying GTAV just to hold me off till Pokémon comes. :P

The only physical issue I see is the framerate drops. Luckily I don't mind it too much, but it's noticeable.

I pretty much like every Pokemon design in this game. I guess that would be marking myself as artistically challenged for some people but I honestly always see something I like in every monster shown so far. :P

As do most starter second forms imo.

Don't worry you will get some bad ass knight form in the end. :P

I'm only worried about the animation in battles.. seems like it would add in an extra 5 hours or so just beause it will slow down battles because of the 3D animations...

Once you get tired of them they have an option to go back to static animations.

It sucks that they put work into these things only to make me turn them off a third of the way through the game... :(

Im really starting to get annoyed with pokemon posts ( actually completely skipped looking at OP lol ) and websites that post pictures of the pokemon evolutions, not everyone want to see what the next evolutions look like but keep it as a surprise when the game comes out.. stupid siliconera.com spoiled the water type evolution for me by having its picture on the newsfeed -_-

Wait, what?... The thread title is pretty much self explanatory, you viewed at your own risk buddy. Though luck.

I wasnt talking about this thread as i have completely skipped TC's post but i was talking about gaming websites in general where they post the pictures of the evolutions on the newsfeed so as soon as you look its spoiled, in terms of this thread i quickly clicked on Make Post and skipped the entire first post to avoid spoilers lol

I find him the best looking of the three to be honest. It's that fenniken evolution that looks ridiculous.

I really hope Froakie isn't a fighting type :( Please. I want to play with him and I don't want to play as the fighting starter anymore. Too many fighting starters. Way too many.

It might be different, since they've switched up the type matchup chart.

It might be different, since they've switched up the type matchup chart.

The new type chart makes me think the starters will be Fire/Fairy, Water/Fighting, and Grass/Steel since Steel, Fairy, and Fighting is a new type triangle.

Fairy beats Fighting, Fighting beats Steel, and Steel beats Fairy.

Yes you can get a Squirtle or Bulbasaur from the Professor sometime between the first gym and the third gym.

People are really not considering all the extra time the 3D animations are going to take and make battles longer... thus the main complain about pokemon game is going to be excessively apparent to non-fans... this game can pretty much kill any non pokemon fan appeal they had in the game.

the battles go by as fast as they did in gen 5. Plus you can turn animations off so there's really no need to complain

A comparison shows that it's actually the 2nd fastest pokemon game in terms of how long the animations take.

I am not 100% sure I am going to buy this and if I do, I am not 100% sure I will love it, BUT I will say I am very impressed and think this is honestly looking to be the most well done upcoming game by Nintendo.

Bugger it... I haven't played a Pokemon game for over a decade, but I'm buying a 3DSXL to get this.
