Pokémon is now available Pokémon X and Y.The Pokémon Company International and Nintendo officially blew our minds open today with the announcement of Pokémon X and Y.
The Pokémon games will mark the very first entries in the next generation of
Pokémon (that's Generation VI, for anyone keeping count). They’re also
the very first set of core games to make use of a completely 3D
graphical style, as well as the first made from the ground up for the
Nintendo 3DS. Marking another first for the series - both games will be
launching globally this coming October. This means all Pokémon fans will
be able to start the game at the same time, rather than the rest of the
world watching jealously from a distance as Japan dives in months
ahead.
Outside of a trailer and a handful of screenshots, very little has
been revealed about Pokémon X and Y. But we're not going to let that
stop us, are we? For your hypothesizing pleasure, I've been delving
through all the screenshots and picking through the trailer, and what I
found was rather interesting. Below you'll find a summary of everything
we know about the game so far, based on what's been shown. A lot of this
is still speculative, of course, as we'll likely have to wait a bit
longer for the official details to start rolling out. Until then, take a
look, let me know in the comments if I missed anything, and take a
moment to imagine the possibilities of Pokémon’s first fully 3D outing
.
First, check out our Rewind Theater of the Pokémon X and Y trailer
(below), then scroll on down for an even more in-depth analysis of all
the secrets this trailer and the handful of released screenshots hold.
