"Rub Your Snorlax in Pokemon X/Y" is probably my favorite E3 trailer title so far.

Glad I could be of service. Personally, I think my best work is Splinter Cell.

NO ONE TOLD ME THERE WOULD BE A NEW TYPE introduced specifically so that Dragon types would have a counter in competitive play other than different Dragon types.

Pokemon X/Y? Sounds like some weird gender confusion thing going on. Do pokemons even have sex?

'bout time someone put them drag'ns in their place. Having a specific type for all of those pink, bouncy and/or fluffy pokemon that's been around through the years make a lot of sense, at least that's where I see them going with this.

I did not enjoy rubbing my dream eaters in Dream Drop Distance and I'm not sold on doing it here, the more optional this is the better.

The trash bag pokémon isn't even new. I mean... uh...

I like the looks of this, but I wonder how they'll daisy chain this to the previous games to make sure you can't catch 'em all without owning six other carts.

I'm so ready to rub my Snorlax. I hope there's a strong online community so that I can rub my Snorlax while other people do the same (or watch if it uses Kinect)

I played pokemon up to Black, never straying from the main games. Then I played the 3DS Mystery Dungeon and I think it pretty much instantly cured any remaining 'need' I had for more mainline pokemon.

If Pokemon Conquest hadn't had that wierd Japanese history thing, I think it looked like it might have been the game I actually want, which is basically pokemon Tactics.

The only reason I'd come back to X/Y at this point is if they turn out to have some actually significant new mechanics. A new type and face rubbing technology is not gonna be enough.

Well...that sure looks like a Pokemon game done in the style of Dragon Quest IX.

In other news, I'm still not interested in a new Pokemon game. It just hasn't had the magic of the Game Boy games since Silver/Gold.

Also...Fairy type? That's the most retarded thing I've heard. And the Pokemon voices for the pet thing sound like Babysitting Mama.

The new Pokemon seem way less interesting than the original 150 Pokemon.

Why would they make the starter water-type look like shit? Everyone knows water is the best one to pick, because then you can teach it Ice Beam and fuck Gary up!

@dark_lord_spam: I quite like the water starter. That said, all three of the starters look kinda odd to me. I think the Diamond/Pearl starters were my favourite designs. Or perhaps Gold/Silver.

You'd think if Jigglypuff has been a Fairy type all along Professor Tree might have identified it a lot sooner.

I was thinking it was more like x,y,z, the coordinates in a 3d space. But there's no Z so idk, thats my guess though.

You know that's exactly what they're going to name the next one they release which is a combination of X and Y, Pokemon Emerald style.
