[quote name='Wattcobra' timestamp='1357743018' post='6116162'] I wonder what new change gen 6 will bring... Gen II brought us the special stat split split. Gen III brought us abilities Gen IV brought us the phsyical/special split. Gen V brought us dream world abilities. What will gen 6 bring? [/quote]Don't forget double battles and triple battles. I hope they stop adding more battles, it's getting ridiculous. But yeah, I wonder what new element they are going to put in besides it being 3D. I mean Diamond also had those underground duel screen minigames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Berserker- Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Yeah, I expected the legendaries to have names starting with X and Y. Now when the full list of the generation is revealed, we'll see if there's a legendary starting with Z. If there is, then we can expect the next game to be called Pokemon Z and it will be the mascot.

[/quote] *clap clap* We figured that out ages ago, meaning yesterday, but still it's probably not that since the Japanese logo has DNA strings in it. Though I still love how the first thing I thought when I saw the name was chromosomes, even though I had never seen the Japanese logo, I'm surprised that I was somewhat right.

King of Games Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 If the region is based on France, i'd like to see some locations with beaches(for the French Riviera) or vineyards. Also a Wine bottle pokemon b/c stereotypes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 [quote name='Zaziuma' timestamp='1357742651' post='6116155'] I can't really find any reason behind those names, unless it's some biology crap. [/quote] [quote name='~British Soul~' timestamp='1357743340' post='6116168'] I can't find a reason either. [/quote]In all likelihood, they mean something more in Japanese, like how shiro in Reshiram's name meant white and kuro in Zekrom's name ment black. Along with that, the previously stated wyvern may be right and there's an animal called Xerxes Blue, which is a butterfly (okay, not as helpful).

Toffee. Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Wait, I thought of something just now~ Since games X and Y are "early" Gen 6... What if the games [i]only[/i] give you the 3 starters + the 2 Legendaries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cin Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Just as long as the game doesn't contain most of the series' legendaries like BW2. That just got really silly especially when BW2/BW haven't even gotten all the legendaries from events yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sure it was the one with Ice, though that might have been 4. But I can explain that too. As I remember it Hoenn was suppose to be a "far out land". So was Gen 5 wasn't it? Maybe that's their reason for it. I dunno. and I'm not saying that you said it, I was just, how do you say, talking out loud that it's probably not Game Freaks idea. Though who knows at this point.

.Rai Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 So I was the correct one. I checked back at my previous suggestion and it fit pretty closely. The etymology of Xerneas comes from X and Cernunnos, a Celtic deer god. OHOHOHOH...probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesirson Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Xerneas is such a majestic name. I don't know why, but I'm a sucker for names that end in -eas or -ias. I love how there's so many people who keep telling others that the X and Y are for the chromosomes as if it was fact while there have been no official statement. Or has there?
