Also, I think MegaAbsol looks like an alicorn. Absol confirmed for Luna. Also, I saw something about MegaKhangaskhan (or however the heck it's spelled) that involved the baby one actually doing something. An attack called "Parental Bond" or something along those lines. Not entirely sure if it's legit, but would certainly be cool.

Yeah, Mega Kangaskhan has been confirmed. About time that baby got a role in the game.

I didn't even notice that the gym leaders had come out... I am extremely okay with one being named Grant. I feel like that's just a really cool name ya know? I'm betting on rock, because he has that carabiner on his neck and looks like he's climbing.
I never knew Grant had any relation to fruit though? Is this something new? The Grant fruit?
Anyway, since apparently you have to download a pokemon from wifi to get the megastone, looks like none of this affects me. Cus my wifi sucks.

It's supposed to be a reference to pome granate. Normally I would call that a bit of a stretch, but his Japanese name is ザクロ, which literally means pomegranate. Of course, if he is a Rock-type Leader, then you can relate it to Granite too. Clever, no? On a side note, the female gym leaders haven't shown a theme so far.

Oh yeah, the Gym Leaders. We know Viola trains Bugs, but Clemont, Grant and Korrina's Gym types are unknown at the moment. I bet Clemont trains either Steel- or Electric-types, but Korrina looks like she could be an Electric-type Gym Leader too. I'm pretty sure that there will be a Fairy-type Gym, because it's the new type and all. Then again, the Dark-type was introduced in Gen II, and we haven't had a single Dark-type Gym so far.

Fairy will probably get a spot in the E4.

All right there's a Pokémon Direct that just happened. It's pretty exciting~ To sum up: -You get a Kanto starter from the Professor after you get a Kalos one from a friend. -Mega Evolutions for the Kanto starters have been revealed. -A storage/transfer cloud system called Pokémon Bank has been announced. An annual fee is required, but it will be compatible with future games. EDIT: Video of MegaEvolutions Those of you with sharp ears may notice that they changed Charmander's cry.

Yay, more starters get Mega Evolutions! Perhaps every single starter will get one in the games, including Swampert. Also, apparently Mega Venusaur's ability is Thick Fat, Mega Charizard's ability is Drought and Mega Blastoise's ability is Mega Launcher which boosts its moves. Now the obvious question is: Do they look cool enough? I think so, but I'm sure that plenty of people wanted a more badass-looking Mega Charizard.

Mega charizard's appearance is fine. I just don't like his typing and ability. Was hoping for Fire/Dragon with levitate

I'm very happy right now. I managed to find a used Nintendo 3DS from a local GameStop yesterday and today I bought it at the price of 129.90€. It's in pretty good condition and works just fine, so now I'll be able to buy Pokémon Y next month without having to wait at all. Also, I was able to get two shiny event Dialgas for my Black and White 2 from the very same GameStop. I love living in Helsinki.

Has any one heard about the Pokemon X/Y 3DS Xl Editions? They're a bit much at $200 a peace and don't come with the games installed like the Japanese versions did but still I like them. I pre-ordered the red one along with Y today.

My opinions: - Witch-fox ftw! I am definitely starting with Fennekin. Froakie's evo looks also great. Chespin's evo... Not so much. - Mega Garchomp?! Oh good God, what were they thinking? It's also ugly as hell. - Mega Mewtwo X and Mega Mewtwo Y? Wut. Oh well, I'm glad I'm buying Y because I've gotten used to the elegant and feminine MM2Y. MM2X looks awful. - New Pokémon, sweet. Personally I think we've had more than enough cats, but who knows, maybe these new ones will actually be useful in battle. The poodle looks hilarious in a good way and the fossils are awesome and I love their typings. - Everything we knew about the Fairy-type has been confirmed. About time. - Steel is no longer resistant to Dark and Ghost? Well, I suppose that when you gain a new strength, you have to lose a couple of old ones. - Dual-type moves?! Oh please no. That'd make everything way too complicated (not that it isn't already). - Team Flare wants to make money and create a beautiful new world, and most of their high-ranking members are women? Could it be that we'll finally get an evil team with a female boss? It's certainly starting to look that way.

I'm liking Froakie's evolution along with the new ACTUAL DINOSAUR POKEMON finally~! The new Mewtwo forms: eh, I've never used Mewtwo before even though he'd have made Yellow Version a lot easier so I'm not about to start now. :T As for everything else that's been revealed: Cool!
