Strangely enough XY already have more Fire Pokemon (non-starter) than Gen 4 (Starter, Magmortar + Heatran).  I'm happy for the fire types.

 

Bug first is very different (We've had 2 and 3), should be slightly more difficult that other gyms since Bugs evolve so low.

Viola's probably not the first Leader. Their exact words were "the first Gym Leader we know of". She could still be the first Gym Leader, but it's equally as unlikely.

Bulbapedia confirms it. Viola is not only the first Gym Leader, but she is also the one who has the giant spider web from the trailers.

Watch as it gets EVEN harder to grind...I still think 3Ds limited batterylife might effect the connectivity.

The horde battles have Pokemon at lower levels than the normal Pokemon on the route to compensate for there being five of them, and you get a multiplier for defeating multiple Pokemon at once. If anything it makes grinding easier (to say nothing of how easy EV training will be).

 

As for the battery life, you can just...not turn the brightness up to 5. The battery lasts pretty damn long when the system isn't at max brightness. Not to mention there's the option to turn wireless off.

I've seen the description elsewhere, and one person said it came from pokemon.com. I myself am too lazy to find out if it's true.

Good thing I was worried over nothing. I thought someone might think I meant I didn't think the Pokemon was real. But again, I was worried over nothing, as you knew I meant the image. (EDIT: of to expand on that, I forgot I said something about someone spreading the word) Pokemon.com, I never thought of that, since I go to serebii and bulbapedia. I guess I'll be less lazy for you and take a look to see whether it's there (probably not).

Also, I'm sad that it doesn't look like you can open the menu on the touch screen, but I'll get over it.

[spoiler=Stuff]
-A racing minigame. You can ride pokemon on land, sea and air.

-Gogoat has two versions, the trailer one is a male. There is an unridable female without horns, apparently visible in the edge of the trailer.

-The final evolutions will look like this: 
Chespin will look like an (American) football player, with helmet and protection. Fennekin will have large ears that look like bat wings/cape. He looks like a flying Zorro. Froakie looks like a ninja from a Japanese painting.

-There are more new pokemon introduced than in Gen IV.

-Sylveon is Eevee's only new evolution.

-Clefairy, Togepi, Jigglypuff, Chansey, Lickitung, Snorlax, Dunsparce, Audino, Snubbull, Skitty and Whismur, and their evolutionary lines are Fairy.

-Mawile, Absol, Misdreavus, Milotic (not Feebas), Chimecho, Uxie, Mesprit y Azelf are half Fairy.

-Mawile has an evolution with 2 mouths instead of one. Apparently it looks like a horse's tail? It might be a reference to Hastune Miku (?). It learns quiver dance, a bug move.

-Eevee, Mawile, Sableye, Dunsparce, Bannette, Tauros, Heracross, Pinsir, Bisharp, Maractus, Cryogonal y Drifloon have new evolutions.

-Lickitung, Throh/Sawk (shared?) and Absol have pre-evolutions.

-Drifloon's new evolution is an alternative to Drifblim and is ghost/fairy.

-There are 2 new teams, Team Acid and Team Base.
Acid has 'punk rock' motorcyclists who want to experiment on pokemon to create the best one. Their leader is a long haired woman. Their important members are 'admins' and they use poison pokemon. 

-Team Base are less evil and more misguided. They wear Tai Chi clothes and want power to protect what is important for them. They steal weak pokemon from trainers to make the pokemon strong. The leader is an old man, (with a muscular white horse?)

-Xerneas and Yveltal represent life and death. Kalos has had numerous wars where Yveltal destroys it only for Xerneas to rebuild it.

-Xerneas represents purity and is Fairy type. Yveltal represents ambition from the sky?. It is dark/flying.

-Two new legendaries. One is dragon/flying and looks like a classic chinese dragon with three forms. The other is fairy /steel and has 3 forms, going from a gold bell with angel wings to a knight angel.

-A new poison/flying legendary based on the 'Zhenniao'. It looks like a green hummingbird. It might be protagonist in the next Pokemon film.

-Xernas and Yveltal will each have a set of three subordinate (might be that they form a trio alongside the subordinate 2) legendaries. Xerneas has to small women-like Fairy/grass pokemon. One is skinny and the other is chunky. They are humanoid and wear a leaf, one is orange and the other green. Yveltal has two dragon/flying pokemon. I think they are pegasi. One has spikes that form a sun on its side.

-There is no third legendary to Xerneas and Yveltal, though there is a water/rock leendary that looks like a giant squid with a head covered by rocks that looks like an ancient city. It also has two subordinate water types which have tentacles and mouths with teeth.

-More legendaries will be distributed by DLCs. It has not been specified whether you have to pay for them. (My guess is they will be like Darkrai and similar pokemon, where you unlock the mission by going online?)

There are different clothes, including an outfit similar to Team Rocket's. Other outfits might be released as DLC. 

-There is only 1 fossil, a rock/dragon that looks like a T-rex. You get it similar to Spiritomb, by having a number of players. I think there is a minigame where you play with others and find him in parts (head,arms, tail and legs). 

-You can pass over pokemon from 5th gen through a program downloaded from E-shop. You can transfer 25 (in one go, doesn't mention repeatability) and they appear in your pc. You have to buy the pokemon using ingame money/tokens though. This is to stop you transfering high level pokemon when you are a very low level. You can rename the pokemon you transfer.

-The strongest new pokemon are poison pokemon.

-GYM SPOILERS

-bug, fairy, normal, fighting, ghost, ice, fire and psychic. They have a different order depending on the game version. Bug, fairy and normal are in central Kalos, afterwards the order depends on the game version.
-Progression may not be as linear as in previous games.

The Elite 4 is based on stats HP, attack, defense, speed, rather than type.

-STORY SPOILERS-
 
Your rival becomes the champion. (Another Gary? Oh yeah!) You have 4 rivals, a childhood friend looking for some bullies, a fat millionaire, a traveller looking for the perfect site. The main rival a hunter that begins as your mentor. His favourite pokemon is tauros, afterwhich he uses its evolution. At the game's beginning a girl follows you aroudn the beginning forest and teaches you the game's basics. She is the Professor's daughter. (Maybe the girl in the trailer screenshots that looks like the female PC?)

DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THIS LEAK? I REMEMBER EMPOLEMEW SAYING WE WERE DUMB FOR LISTENING TO IT AT ALL.

WELL BUG GYM IS CONFIRMED, THE FOUR RIVALS BIT WAS CONFIRMED, MAYBE WE SHOULD PAY A LITTLE MORE ATTENTION TO IT AGAIN.

the only thing on that leak I hope is false really is the way to obtain the fossil pokemon, as that could be a  complete pain in the arse to get >.> and its not even a legendary[as far as that leak says]

Does anybody know if EV's get multipliers the same way EXP is supposed to? because if so, the muscle band just became my new best friend.

You know, except for the part where the person who posted this "leak" came out and said he made it all up. Something in one person's speculation or fake leak eventually coming true doesn't mean they suddenly have credibility. Anyone could've predicted a Bug type gym; there was an area with a spider web in the very first trailer we had for the game.

 

Not only that, some of the information in it is completely contradictory to what we heard at the developer's conference. The "leak" mentioned DLC numerous times, which the developers said is something they've considered, but are not 100% about. Masuda himself has gone on record saying he's against the idea of DLC prior to this. The leak also says with certainty that you can transfer Pokemon from Gen 5 through an eshop app. While such a thing is certainly a possibility, the developers said that they are having difficulty working out communication between the DS and 3DS, and that there's a chance that transferring Pokemon may not happen at all.

 

And the "four rivals" thing is not confirmed, the idea is speculation. None of the three characters, nor the opposite gendered character, are said to be rivals, they are simply said to be other trainers in the town starting out at the same time as you. The phrasing on their answer to the question, in addition to the reveal of the PSS suggests they want to move away from the typical rival dynamic to put emphasis on battling other live players instead.

 

There's a lot more I could go into but it's 5:30 in the morning.

I understand that Roxas and I've adjusted its settings (I was testing it since my parents were worried it needed checking before Oct (when I'm supposed to get it)), I'll adjust the other 3Ds when I remember.

 

I suppose about the EXP I'm just sceptical now (and unable to spell...).

Shishiko is cute, hope it's evolution looks more ferocious and I might use it. (If it has one). We already have Electric Lion (Luxray) why not a Fire one.
