[QUOTE="charizard1605"][QUOTE="cain006"]No I just bought a regular blue one off ebay. I don't like the way the special edition ones look honestly.

I'm no expert on this kind of stuff, but I feel like this game is going to take up a monstrous amount of cartridge space and that a save file recording the stats (including he personalization that comes with EVs) for hundreds of Pokemon might also take up a good chunk. Perhaps more than one such save file is too much? I don't know...

I just preordered from Gamestop and I got the double-sided poster; I preordered X by the way since it is the equivalent to Red in the 6th Generation since it was mentioned first.

I had Red, Gold, Heartgold, and Black.

I also had Yellow, Crystal, Platinum, and White.

I would of had Ruby, Firered, and Diamond if I didn't quit and then get back into Pokémon with Platinum.

Have the version differences been revealed yet? I don't want to make a decision untill I know this... Black and White actually had different post game content between the two that was pretty big.

Hey, its got an 8.0, Like the last of Us and Card Hunter a web based browser card rpg game

Does that mean a free card online game is on equal grounds with Pokemon X and Y?

The title is pretty pathetic. (Pokemon=The last of Us=Card Hunter=Race the Sun etc etc.)
No reason why The Last of Us should be in title other done acknowleding its a great game and craving attention.

Does that mean a Vita game called Spelunky score of 9.0 is better than Pokemon X and Y??

Not at all, that's a very, VERY poor excuse. Not only is all Pokemon save data cumulatively 512KB-1MB at most, other games which have as much going on on the DS/3DS have allowed multiple saves (such as Dragon Quest and Shin Megami Tensei), and most importantly, Pokemon DOES have multiple save slots, but Game Freak chooses to use them as backup save slots in case the data on your main file gets corrupted.

I don't know, I have a love/hate relationship with the one save file per game idea. On one hand it sucks because if I want to start over gotta say bye bye to my accomplishments, on the other hand it makes me weigh my options and appreciate the previous run more. Also, unless you're sharing the game, sorry freedom, the bank takes all of the sting away (as well as 5 bucks).

Pokemon is my go-to game when I just want to play something and don't quite know what, so I start over a lot, because of the variety you can make it interesting every time. So, at this point, I just keep a log of my Pokemon and position in the games in a folder I have of information of games, along with my hand-drawn map of Gibdo Well. For example:

Soul Silver

Player: TilxWLOC-----------------------------------------Pokemon-----

Time: 21:13--------------------------------|Nickname_________ |Lv.__ |Pokemon___________|

Badges: 7 / Location: Dragon's Den

Pokedex: 16

__________________-------------___________

Perhaps I'm just too sentimental though.

Now if you catch them all... I don't know what you'd do until the bank came around. I guess it all depends on why you play Pokemon.

Any word on how the competitive scene is with this game? I've heard they've replaced EV/IV training with a bunch of mini-games. I've wanted to get into competitive Pokemon in the past but I felt it was time consuming and tedious to get started.

Which makes a lot of sense to me.

You are a trainer, there should be more ways to train pokemon than just having them beat up everyone else. And this is a good way to do this.

EVs and IVs are still there, but they're transparent, and yes, you can EV train your Pokemon by playing a bunch of minigames instead of EV grinding proper.charizard1605

Have IV's changed at all? Have they changed Hidden Power calculation to account for Fairy type? I'm trying too avoid the main leaks so I haven't looked it up.

charizard1605

there's apparently someone on **** saying that any Pokemon that has IVs lower than 31 in a specific stat can compensate that by getting extra EVs

Everyday I count down the days in my head until next Sunday.  Cannot wait, I haven't been this excited for a game since Dark Souls.

^I was adding to what you said, sorry :P Shouldn't post while playing ACcharizard1605

When a Nintendo exclusive title receives over 6.5, there's a 10+ pages threads about it. When there's a 9/10 on any other systems, not many cares and its time to move on because high quality titles are so often released on these that its not worth buying a cake and celebrate. silversix_

Just paraphrasing what I heard. Exact quote of the rumor
