Usually when they make a new Eeveelution, it comes with two. And one type is usually super effective against the other. (Eg Vaporeon - Flareon, Jolteon - Vaporeon, Umbreon - Espeon, Glaceon - Leafon) So maybe a Bug eevo and a Flying eevo yet to be released.

Yeah if you see the trailer poster there is Sylveon's bow in the middle and 2 stars at the end. Are they pointing to something? :3

 

 

 

Has anyone else seen any more news on new Pokemon? I think that Sylveon is going to be a Bug Type.

Nope :/ I guess Sylveon is the huge wow factor of the month but really? thats not huge.

Sylv- and other words with that prefix usually mean "of the woods" or something related.

It's French and German names (Nymphali and Feelinara) are pointing to Bug.

So it's likely going to be Bug.

Bug? :S

 

It looks nothing like a bug though... But that pink bow does look like butterfly wings... :S

Im definatly going to get X. The Y ledgendary just looks ugly in my opinion. Im also going to get the fire starter. Because I always end up chosing the one that looks the prettiest/cutest.. @_@

Imma choose Fennekin too. Everything else seems meh to me. UNLESS Fennekin turns into another fire fighting:S

Either way, I'm going to add the new Eeveelution into my party one way or another :3

 

Plus I might finally break down and buy a 3DS XL in March when Gates to Infinity comes out!

 

Go for it! Hope you can find a good spot on it for your team.

They wouldn't hype "worldwide" if it wasn't the same day/within two days.

true. But hopefully Corocoro releases more. i need MOAR. MOAR.

Simorelease! Simultaneous release! X and Y will come out worldwide on the same day instead of coming out in Japan and then everyone else waiting 4 months.

We actually dont know about the release date just yet. Yes it will be coming out everywhere in October but what if it comes out in Japan on October 1st and in the Americas the 31st? :3

Never know with CoroCoro, they may have some new treat for us. I think Sylveon will be the big news of the month, though. But we may get lucky and get a typing or hint in the next issue!

 

We may get some news ones released slowly before the big waves of announcements, but you have to admit, Game Freak really knows how to get us worked up. Starters, legends, Eeveeloution! The entire fanbase is in a frenzy of love for them, it's exactly what they want. And have I mentioned that I'm really excited for the simorelease?

that what release?

 

ALSO... The two silhouettes in the episode of Pokemon Smash are not of Sylveon!

I still think it looks flying, but these names seem bug type. The best I can find for "sylv" is "sylvan" which means "one who lives in the woods", and the names Sylvia and Sylvester which are "woods, forest", and "wooded"

 

Maybe the type's secret because they're dual-typing it? Pure Flying has never been a thing, after all.

 

Most Likely. Have you seen the pokemon website? They showed the whole guide of the eeveelution including Sylveon but left Sylveon with a ???

 

 

Hey Anime do you think Corocoro is releasing anything else? or was Sylveon the big wow factor of Gen 6 in feb?

 

We will be recieving a new pokemon alson in Pokemon Smash this weekend since they showed 2 silhouettes none of which looked like Sylveon' silhouettes.

.

English name is Sylveon! I like it, sounds pretty. Going to try and work out what "sylv" references during class.

beat me to the punch! and yeah i think its a flying type due to its four moves shown here:

Or you could go the "other" way around and do a Rock type. Rock seems like a more "masculine" type, and Rock > Flying.

but we till do not know the typing of Ninfia yet so it could be the fighting one already, or it could be the normal type.

 

 

In other news, more Corocoro scans are expected by tomorrow or Thursday! There will be a huge wow factor also included!

There probably will be another Eeveeloution this gen, they seem to like doing them in pairs. I'd place my bets on Fighting, as it'd provide a nice visual contrast to Ninfia (Fighting types are generally more masculine looking) and would also fit with Ninfia being Flying (they seem to like having one be super effective against the other- Dark->Psychic, Ice->Grass, and then Flying->Fighting)

Yeah exactly. But then I get a little confused because when they are Down to dragon and ice has already been used, would the make 2 dragons?

 

@idriya I would totally quote you on that but I'm on the mobile version atm, I think most people enjoyed Kanto since its the original 151 they are in most games ie Gen 1,2,3 AND 4 with Green, Gold, Firered, and HGSS thats where I think most people enjoy it.

Flying Eevee. I highly DEMAND it more than any other Eeveelution x'D

 

A part of me wants to think of it as a cute fighting type for some reason....either way this Ninfia might be in my future party x3

I TOLD YOU! remember i said new eeveelutions XP yay! Most likely flying or fighting yes.

 

 

Don't get me wrong, I like all the gens. Picking which one I don't like is like picking what kind of ice cream I like the least.

I just don't think the 3rd gen. is as amazing as people make it out to be. In order, I'd say the gens go like this for me:

2 > 5 > 4 > 3 > 1

My Generations go.,,

2>3>1>5>4

I found 4 being very lack luster. i didnt enjoy it.

 

....I'm not sure you read anything but my caps.

 

I was agreeing with you.

 

They're only alike in that they're based on similar animals.

 

The caps were the "general take" a lot of people have, and I find it to be rather stupid to think they're the same because they have a similar base animal.

Hey Anime do you think there will be another eeveelution? I think this because in Gen 2 there were 2. In Gen 4 there were 2. In Gen 6 would there only be 1? And remember that trailer poster? remember how they were forrdhadowing Ninfia with that bow? What if they are also foreshadowing another eeveelution with those 3 stars at the end? :3

I'm hoping for Ninfia to be a flying type. 'Nin' in Ninfia could be referring to nine, seeing as it's the 9th evo. Also, I know a certain someone who would love a Flying type eeveelution.

Ninfia was confirmed to be the Japanese name, by the way.

If it's flying, it could be Wingeon or Featheon (feather). Or they could come up with something more creative, but come on. Leafeon is the most basic name for a grass type eeveelution.

 

Also come on there's not gonna be a light type. Or a sound type, for that matter. There'd only be like maybe 10 - 15 moves that could be classified as Light or Sound. Of course, they could at new moves, like they did for steel and dark. But those moved were added way over time, and i doubt there's gonna be another 3 gens to add moves to it. Sticking to my theory of Pokemon ending in Gen 7.

 

BUT WHAT IF NINFIA IS A DRAGON TYPE

yeah the light type was pushing it but sound? thats just so stupid and uneeded. For Ninfeia most people say Flying or Normal due to the face that it is pink with huge blue eyes with a huge comparison to JigglyPuff and Clefairy.

 

 

 

 

*shrug* I don't know. I liked a lot of the changes. I know a lot of people complain about how Unova is "too linear," and I agree that it's linear, but I think the visuals more than make up for the linearity. And I don't think the Pokemon were more or less poorly designed than the other regions. I've seen the "Trubbish and Vanillite" argument repeated ad infinitum, but they're really no worse than Grimer/Muk, Voltorb/Electrode, Magnemite/Magenton, etc. If Trubbish and Vanillite came out in the 1st gen., nobody would be complaining about them today.

 

I've also seen the whole "all the Pokemon are just Gen. 1 replacements" argument, but I don't buy that. At all. And the ones that are "replacements" do something different. For example, both Tauros and Bouffalant are based on bulls/bison, but Tauros focuses more on speed, while Bouffalant is more defensive.

And there are plenty of Pokemon that are well-designed. Braviary, Hydreigon, Volcarona, Haxorus, Tirtouga, Zoroark, Excadrill, the Sandile family, th Litwick family, and Galvantula are several that come to mind.

 

I didn't mind the experience thing personally, since I usually grind in the wild anyway.

 

It'll get Vindicated by History eventually, though. If the 3rd Gen (aka "The Dark Ages of Pokemon" and a generation I find extremely overrated, though not terrible) can get Vindicated by History, which it pretty much already has, then the 5th Gen definitely will later on down the road.

I liked the third gen, the fifth gen had awesome pokemon concepts! I loved them!

They wouldn't be introducing a new type. The only one they added after 1st gen was Steel in 2nd and that was less of a "LET'S MAKE A NEW TYPE" and more of a "....why didn't we do this in the first place?"

 

It does look kind of normal, but I'm not sure- one of the things about Eevee is that it's a normal little fox thing that changes into an elemental. However neat a normal evo would be, I can't really see there being one. Along with what I just said, there's the fact that a normal-type evolution would be it's primary one, and thus most likely done by leveling. You know, it levels towards maturity naturally but it can be interrupted and take another path based on the environment. Thing is, that would require it to have been available from the start- and Game Freak is VERY careful about always making it a totally new, couldn't-have-happened-in-past-gens thing when they make a new evolution for an old Pokemon, so I kind of doubt it.

 

Hence why I bypassed Normal for Flying as the type. Flying is a widely requested Eevee type, the colors and base design fit, and to be perfectly honest I can't see it as any of the other missing types.

Yeah its most likely flying. butt... if you look at it in battle. its using a fire type move.. questionable much? ;3 But we already have Flareon.. :S

 

 

 

Can people just give up on the idea of a Light type? It'll never happen, and the only reason Dark and Steel were introduced in the first place was because the Psychic type was so overpowered in the 1st gen.

 

Yeah, I'm not too ecstatic about this Eeveelution. I mean, it's not bad, it's just... kind of boring. Just a generic cute mammal.

 

By the way, out of curiosity, am I the only one that doesn't think the 5th gen. was a total disappointment? :/ I think it was the second best generation of Pokemon ever behind 2nd gen.

Yeah i just said light type because of everyone think there is going to be one :S Generation 5 wasnt that bad actually! I loved alor of the pokemon in the game and the amazing Team Plasma calls for an amazing game!

YUP! Here is a scan of Ninfia! We still do not know the type OR the way to evolve it, or even the english name... BUT.. here it is!

 

for me i was thinking that Ninfia was a Psychic type but we already have Espeon.. Maybe the Light type? :D Or maybe just Normal? :D

AWWWWW YESSSSSSSS. I CAN'T WAIT! Pokemon X and Y is my motivator to catch all the Pokemon before they come out. So psyched for the news coming!

Corocoro should be leaking by the 13th the latest. We might be receiving something tonight or tomorrow! :D

Great news! Corocoro (the gaming magazine in Japan) will be leaking pokemon news very soon! Later tonight or tomorrow! Corocoro officially releases on the 15th but we will get it leaked by the 11th!

 

GET READY EVERYONE! NEW POKEMON ARE COMING VERY SOON!

My first game system was just like yours! I got a Gameboy Advanced when i was 6. My first game i received was Pokemon Emerald!

Then i used an emulator to play Red/Blue/Yellow. After that, I got a DS and a 3DS just recently.

No new pokemon have been released since the week before,

 

but lets wrap up what we did learn this week!

 

THERE IS A NEW GENERATION.

 

THE STARTERS ARE:

CHESPIN

FENNEKIN

FROAKIE

 

THE STARTERS ARE PURE TYPES FIRE, WATER, AND GRASS.

 

THE LEGENDARIES REPRESENTING THE 2 GAMES ARE: YVELTAL, XERNEAS

The moment I saw Xerneas, I instantly thought about the Great Forest Spirit from Princess Mononoke....don't know if I'm the only one xD

 

GREAT NEWS! Eevee is returning in Gen 6!

If you look closely in the trailer, when they are showing the castle seen, you see a statue with a Knight, Golurk and Palpitoad. On Golurk's arm there is an eevee! ARE THEY IMPLY NEW EEVEELUTIONS? :D

 

 

I'm really looking forward to these games! I'll probably go with the fire starter, though I pray it won't be a fire/fighting combo again. Looks like it'll be fire/psychic from the trailer, though.

 

Love the new look of the games! The male player character was looking in the mirror next to a dresser... does this mean we finally get character customization?

 

Probably not :/ if you watch the trailer, the sunglasses are on ALL the time, even in the grass gym but there was a glitch and the sunglasses were behind where the trained jumped from the vines.

 

 

My brother and I thought the exact same thing!

 

Whut? o_O

I really like the starters this time around. ;; Having a hard time choosing, but ultimately it depends on what their evolved forms look like. Itching to see the version exclusives, too!

 

Agreed! I cant wait to see the derp pokemon of the region! [The first normal type you find in the game I.E.: Ratatta, Sentret, Zigzagoon, Bidoof, Patrat)

 

 

 

In other news i got my 3DS today! Time to wait till october now!

Well...I think I'm just going to start out with Pokemon X because that legendary is way too cool. I really like Kroakie, but Fennekin is adorable.

 

Froakie** and I agree! Fennekin is amazing! I really like it!
