UPDATE: Royal Mail managers "cannot rule out" joining coordinated strike against £3bn privatisation.
More than 120,000 Royal Mail staff are due to be balloted over the privatisation plan in the coming weeks, with any strike action likely to follow in mid-October.


So glad I cancelled my order xD

yeah they get balloted on the 23rd and then they revealed the results October 3rd and then they have to give 7 days notice before they strike

Spiffy ~ ^^"
Usually we have leaks from Japan when a games is released and we can play the games in Japanese.

This worldwide release will definately be something different and i guess it has its advantages and disadvantages.

29 days! (I don't count it as 30 days, as I'll probably wake up and get it straight away on the 12th, and I don't count that as a day :p)

What exactly are the disadvantages?

What exactly are the disadvantages?

not enough information available from the start for English speaking countries (which is also a plus as we get to play it blind like japan does)

also any bugs that would normally be fixed by the time they made it over here wont be as this time everybody will be playing at the same time

Playing blind as far as I'm concerned is nothing but positive. The games aren't exactly hard and if you talk to everyone then you get everything :)

Bugs...meh, odds are they will triple check everything anyway, the only bugs I can really think of are the Sinnoh E4 in DP or tweaking.

Lack of info is the biggest disadvantage I think, we won't know which starter to pick because we won't know the third evolution. I doubt they will release that before release.

Yeah, but you get info by playing the games.

That's not really a problem. Somebody will probably get the game a few days before you so everything will be spoiled when you get the game. In a "worst" case scenario the first leaks will begin the same day as you get your game, but then you only need to keep your hands off the game for a mere day to plan everything out.

Just contacted my local game who said they were doing the Pokeball bonus which makes me happy so I will pre order with them

BUT....

While trying to find the number I called the 0871 number assuming it was customer services (its wasn't its just an automated line) which said that Game were releasing Pokémon Y (and X I would assume) on Friday the 11th October


Has anybody else noticed this?

This is actually the biggest advantage after years, giving us a chance to play without the game spoiled and start our adventure at the same time worldwide, having an access to 7 languages.

They'll give us more info before release. Probably a Pokemon Direct revealing the starters/# of Pokemon. It'll be a bad marketing idea not to. But there's nothing bad about no info, as you'll be encouraged to explore everything. If you already knew where items/pokemon were it'd be less fun.

There aren't any disadvantages.

As many have said already, playing blindly will be awesome and more importantly, we will get more fun playing it. :D
And besides if someone wants some help, he could always buy the guide.

I hope not. I want to know the names of the Pokemon reveled. Its too hard to say the Japanese names for me. and there is never too much in my opinion.
