No hate please. I know I'm being kind of whiny but at least we're starting to dwindle away from Sylveon....right?

Anyways I think Xerneas's design is stupid. Why? Cause nothing in his/her design says "Hey I'm the X Pokemon!". Before you say "Have you even seen his eyes?", yes I have seen his eyes and it's an X. But still! Add something to his design that would make him say "I'm X!" and not some confused Pokemon that will say "Am I a mascot of X or Y?". (cause of his Y-shaped antlers)

At least we can clearly see that Yveltal is the Y Pokemon.

I was thinking maybe he can make an X shape with his front legs and the horns o.e maybe I dunno xD

All jokes aside, I believe the X-shaped pupils (or what have you) ARE how Xerneas is X's mascot (and only that), but that's for the legendary's topic, right?

I wonder if there are going to be a lot more "man-made" Pokemon this generation because of this genetics theme. Pokemon gene splicing could prove interesting.

Unless he's gonna walk with his legs crossed, he's still not radiating an aura that screams "Hey I'm the X-Pokemon."

I just remembered Deoxys is the DNA Pokemon. What if he's actually important this time around?

I dunno if this is double posting or not I'm new but anyways you do have a good point. I just think the "X-Eyes" aren't as significant as how Yveltal's design just says "Hey I'm the Y-Pokemon.".

I'm gonna stop with the sarcastic "Hey I'm the blah blah blah" comments. lol

If this gen is about genetics and man made stuff what if porygon gets another evo. That would be totally cool.

I think it would be cool if that happened, but I don't know if they will want to focus on old pokemon (he will probably have an end of game event type thing though), unless they make the game cross-region similar to gen 2.

That would be cool. Porygon already has 2 evolutions, but Porygon-Z is made from pretty much corrupting Porygon 2 with the Dubious Disk, so I can see another evolution in the form of a non-corrupted upgrade. In other words, Porygon 2 could have a branched evolution.

But I doubt they'll think about Porygon too much.

Since all of Porygon's current evos are kind of futuristic, I was thinking of an Ancient-based Porygon...but that might be stupid since Porygon is futuristic, after all.

i actually like the idea of a genetics theme to Gen VI. maybe Xerneas is a female (X chromosome) and Yveltal is a male (Y chromosome)

Can't wait to see the Generation VI bugs. I hope they are somewhat strong like Unova bugs.
I know right!? I loved Scolipede last gen, and I actually found myself using it for a very long time before I replaced it out of my party. I would love another tough bug pair in gen 6.

So, if the theme is genetics...will Mareep get an evil clone pokemon named Dolly? I kid, I kid.

Actually, a gryphon that was fire/flying or some such thing would be kind of cool.

That could be a possibility. Xerneas could also represent genetic purity (no imperfections), and Yveltal could represent genetic disorder and corruption.

...Probably not.

But I will be kind of disappointed of gene splicing isn't mentioned in the game or used to make any new Pokemon..

Yeah which is why i'm posting less I'm tired of it ._. they need to think of more pokemon that can show up or evos or old Pokemon


I said earlier that I would like to see a pinsir evo. That pokemon hasn't been touched. He needs love *huggles my Pinsir *

I'm in the same boat. Yesterday was the first day where I just did not want to go on these forums, people are too sensitive, wether your Pro new type, or pro-flying pro-bug, etc. Etc.
Its annoying, so I'm just gonna wait.... that way when they do announce its type, I can slap a bunch of idiots up!

Well, no one knows what it is for sure. Aerial Ace is my guess (playing cards, Aces, blah). That Dugtrio information was interesting, though.
It's not Aerial Ace.

Chespin's move was quite obviously Aerial Ace, which means what Sylveon used wasn't. And anyway, even if it was, that wouldn't make it a Flying-type, plenty of non-Flying quadrupeds can learn it (including another Eeveelution, Leafeon).

Honestly I'm leaning towards Normal. The whole link to ~~togetherness~~ and fairies and what not makes it seem more likely than Flying imo.

Sames. I hope we get some good Poison-types too.

His horns criss-cross like Xs, and the spikes on his shoulders can form an X shape with his legs if he stands with them apart.
