yes it does, so? we had pokemon that looked like couple of stones in a line (Onix) so this one might be weird, but whatever xd

You've got a point there, I guess since I grew up with them that was completely normal. Thanks for showing me the Pokemon Light:D

Well they had to run out of ideas eventually.
I think the fire starter pokemon looks cute though :/

I've been a Pokemon fan all my life and I love the new games and new generation. My problem is that most of the people above just go by looks and end it there. Have you ever played Black or white. The story is amazing and well are some what geared to the older audience if you can read between the lines. I thought I was done with pokemon at Shinnoh but I tried it out and had fun with it. So I ask have any of you tried the new games? Or are you just judging a book by its cover.
Pokemon Colosseum had a better story than black and white even Red and Blue had a more darker story than the rest.

In offering my own opinion, I carry no affinity nor attraction towards Pokemon X and Y, if any nostalgia of pokemon at all for that matter. The series for me has been going nowhere for many years, and survives on the simple concept of preying upon youthful emotional value and fantasy, nothing more. The Anime series in my opinion is absolutely flawless in how distasteful and terrible it is, though I shall not label it as an abomination as others do. The games had originally been quite riveting and fun despite the ultimate failure in contextual and relevant logic(more of them due to limited programming and mechanics errors than anything) up until the third generation(my favorite out of all) with the Hoenn region. Afterwards, there had been nothing occurring but a downward spiral into oblivion(which is likely where one of the next illogical legendaries shall come from as The King of Hell), I could not believe and stand the poor ideology created in order to justify the tempering of physics, these pertaining to Palkia, Dialga, Darkrai, Giratina, and who else but all mighty failure Arceus. Palkia supposedly being meant to represent space, Dialga as Time(what happened to the illogical ability of Celebi's time travel? I understand anime and these cartoons care little for rationality, but there is a line to be drawn.), Darkrai to represent dark matter(a controversial idea in which we do not yet fully understand, and yet they pounced it.), Giratina to respresent Anti matter(BS, he would have LITERALLY WIPED OUT most, if not all, of the earth as soon as he came into existence due to the symmetrical reaction between matter and antimatter. I call absolute BS). And Arceus, if I truly require an explanation as to why it is the biggest ideological I have seen Gamefreak create then that is sad as he is supposedly designed to represent "God", not hierarchical, ancestral being or predecessor to all pokemon, he is supposed to be "God".

Aside from the ranting, I apologize, I still enjoy pokemon for some of the fan based ideas[emphasis on "some"] and perhaps sheerly for its artwork if nothing more.

That part confuses me...are you against them having a god? What's the problem with that?

I think it's called the Nintendo "I'm going to f*** up your eyes forever DS"

hhahahahaha lolz. Fair enough ;p

for the first time since Treecko i might go for Grass starter, because that water one is pure awfulness xd and that Fire one, i don't know, i don't know, depends if the final one will be pure Fire or smthing else xd

but to be honest, i just love Xerneas because he is pure awesomness, i don't know what people have against these guys, the water starter is awful i agree, but the other ones are fine, but GOD that Xerneas is PURE BADASNESS, seriously, can't believe you got something against him xd
Yeah I agree Xernas looks legit but I bet the rest of the PKMN look like Klinklank lol

;p can't disagree with you there, but they are still sh*t lol. I guess it's because we have grown and Pokemon has stayed the same...which to us looks like they are regressing, when in fact they just cater to the same demography as they always have.

well i still enjoy them regardless of what they look like and the best thing about pokemon staying the same is that you know what your getting into and you know what to expect its just a great rpg and to much change could destroy the series any ways

I am against most of what they have done, and I revised some of the paragraph ranting I posted due to words having been left out. I don't actually care much about them having a god, as many series take such measures. I am more over dissatisfied and discontent with the amount of effort put into it and all of the presented ideology, it is simply preposterous and disappointing. Though I know this is merely my opinion.

People moan about these top game franchises as well:

Call of Duty
Halo
Final Fantasy
Mario
Need For Speed
Grand Theft Auto
Gran Turismo
Tom Clancy Games
ETC

Sales and franchising do not actually define the quality of game, which in itself is subject to personal and common opinion. There are many ways to continue franchises such as pokemon without actually producing appeal, I admire the evolution though I disagree with it. One can simply meet acceptable means so that the community still purchases the product, however it does not have to meet any specifications or desires by the community, simply be enough to keep demand steady.

I thought the version names sounded stupid at first, but then I saw the legendaries and I think they look pretty awesome :p
The fennec fox is adorable too. Looks like I need to upgrade from my DSi xD

There should be a forum for us to speak our minds? Seems plausible.
