Okay so for those who don't know, the past few days Pokémon and Nintendo have been telling us that they were going to reveal some big news. And they just did. Coming to the 3DS in October 2013 are Pokémon X and Pokémon Y Versions! You can watch the video reveal here. Or if you just want to see the new trailer, click here instead.The new Pok?mon: Chespin Fennekin Froakie Deer thing Y bird What the hell is up with these Pokémon. I don't even care, I love them. Watch the video! There's lots of good gameplay footage. Thoughts?

I don't like the Pok?mon, they look cheap and rushed to me, like most of fourth and fifth gen. And I don't like the trainer characters, but the gameplay looks like a nice change from the typical format.
I'm still waiting for a more traditional Pokémon RPG that's better than Colosseum or XD, but I'm thinking, at this point, I'll never get my wish...

I liked most of the fifth generation so I'm excited to see more of what these new games have in store for us. I'm sad to see sprites go, but the 3D is going to be awesome. Anyways, Pok?mon's official Twitter page updated earlier today to tell us the names of the new legendary Pokémon. Good luck pronouncing them 'cause I can't. EDIT:

I think zeer-nee-arse is the only one I really like. A deer legendary is cool. I actually don't REALLY mind Yveltal either, but I HATE HATE HATE the starters. Future trailers and info are gonna have to be REALLY spectacular to make me want to drop the money for a 3DS, though.

I meant to post this yesterday but I forgot. The official Ken Sugimori art for Yveltal and Xerneas.

Junichi Masuda has just made a post on his blog about the new games. Probably the most noteworthy part of it is this: "A new battle mechanism that allows your Pokémon to become even more powerful when the bonds you share grow stronger." Sounds pretty cool! A lot of Pok?mon I really like aren't very strong, so maybe now if I just use them enough they will start to love me and win battles? This also stuck out to me: "An innovate communication system that will make you feel connected with players from around the world as you play the game." Could just be a new GTS or something but who knows.

Maybe my Cubone will finally be able to keep up.

A scan of February's CoroCoro has just leaked and it features a silhouette of a new Pokémon. Looks like another Eeveelution. Hopefully clearer images will surface soon! EDIT: It's been confirmed that it's definitely a new Eeveelution since its translated name is "Ninfia" and the 'ia' is just the Japanese 'eon' ending they give to them all.

Good, I'm glad it's an Eeveelution. It looked like a Minicinno or an Archen/Archeops to me haha.

Oh goddddddd this is what it looks like. I think Eevee has been getting a little too friendly with Audino in the daycare. No idea what type this could be. Ribbons? I feel like maybe it's not an evolution, but a new Eevee forme or something like that.

It's a ribbony cat thing. Someone uploaded the full page finally. You can see some battle screenshots from X and Y. Ninfia is going to be featured in the next Pok?mon movie, or at least the short that goes along with it. So that should be fun.

Pok?mon's Youtube channel has uploaded this short video demonstrating the new Eeveelution's battling skills as well as giving us its English name, Sylveon. As far as its type goes, "You'll have to wait and find out!" A lot of people are speculating that it will be a new type, Light being the most talked about. I doubt it, but we'll see.

I think this game is looking better for me every time I see it. I really hated Gen V, but this looks like a marked improvement. I can't say I like 'Sylveon' all that much, or the starters for that matter, but I'm liking the look of the gameplay a lot.

Yeah the gameplay so far looks awesome. I can't wait to see more battle screenshots and videos, I'm curious to see how it will look when you battle while Surfing.
The trailer for the upcoming Pokémon movie was released today and we get a brief look at Sylveon near the end when they talk about the Eevee short.
Not that this has anything to do with Gen VI, but I'm so happy that Mewtwo is going to be in this movie. I'm also really glad that Ash seems to remember him since that's not always a guarantee when it comes to Pokémon he's met before.
