Otherwise known as PMD: Magnagate and the Infinite Labyrinth. As most of you have likely heard by now, there's a new PMD game on the way! Release dates: Japan - November 23rd 2012 USA - March 24th 2013 EUR - TBC AUS - TBC Details are pretty thin on the ground right now, but so far it's looking pretty grand thanks to: a) apparent use of the Pokédex 3D models and b) well okay, that's all I have right now. But the presentation in general is looking far more polished than previous entries in the series (better map, etc). So uh... Discuss.

They showed a Dunsparce in the trailer, consider it bought (even if I don't have a 3DS) But yeah, I'm really liking the fact that it's in 3D, gives it a much different appearance from the other Mystery Dungeon games. Can't wait to see what else is revealed! Though, I'm assuming that only the pokemon showed in the video can be chosen at the beginning of the game, which kinda disappoints me, I liked having a wide variety to be like in Explorers of Time. But oh well, we'll see how it goes as more's revealed

*Change the setting to a post-apocalyptic world. *Change the towns and villages to hideouts of bands of lawless gangs of pokemon, ruthlessly and hedonistically living from one moment to the next. *Set all legendaries and ubers to DECEASED. *Change the storyline to this: You are a pokemon who has witnessed too much of the barbarism and perversion of this world at too young of an age. Now you must make a choice. Do you fight with honor against the savagery to restore justice and order to the world? Do you let the chaos consume you and use deceit and brute force to claw out your empire under an iron fist? Or do you choose a shade of grey...
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Black and White: Poke-Tabula Rasa.
Now THAT is a PMD game I'd buy.

I was waiting so long for a 5th Gen PMD game, I started to lose hope, but now it's a reality. I'm getting this no matter what.

But oh well, we'll see how it goes as more's revealed It's always Dunsparce with you. I'm fairly certain that they wouldn't ever limit it to just Unova starters + Pikachu + Axew. No doubt they'll have more when the actual game rolls around. *Change the setting to a post-apocalyptic world. *Change the towns and villages to hideouts of bands of lawless gangs of pokemon, ruthlessly and hedonistically living from one moment to the next. *Set all legendaries and ubers to DECEASED. *Change the storyline to this: You are a pokemon who has witnessed too much of the barbarism and perversion of this world at too young of an age.

I don't think that's ever gonna happen Dave. c: But you could try to make it yourself with hacking I guess?

Well, unfortunately this hasn't turned out to be the case, and you are indeed limited to just those five starters. I really don't understand why, since one of the main draws in PMD is the large variety of Pokemon you could end up as and the possible team combinations resulting from that. They've even replaced the personality quiz with just a list to pick from.

I'm sure there were reasons as to why they chose this, but I just hope they change it in the next MD game

I WANT THAT GAME RIGHT NOWWWWWW! I've gotten the last three as soon as they came out... But I'm a little disappointed Charmander isn't an option. Charmander+Squirtle team for all the previous games with me.

Will you evolve when you hit the right level or will it be another "Oh something's wrong with some spirit mumbo-jumbo so no one will be able to evolve until long after you've beaten the main story"? That's what I want to know.
