I'd find it annoying. I don't like to walk around with my 3DS all the time, it's an expensive bit of kit after all, especially with Nintendo's lack of an account system meaning if the console's lost...

I dislike achievements. The game should be fun to play, the player shouldn't have to be rewarded like a button-pushing monkey.

*Looks up*

WOOT!

Finally. I thought I'd never get Deoxys!

Still don't rate my chances of 5th Gen Dex completion mind, since I went and missed the Celebi event a couple years back.

It could take some tricky/sneaky moves, similar to some the Dark Type enjoys. Fairies are often portrayed as tricksters, prominently so in several Shakespeare comedies for example. Something like...

The metagame will receive a perfectly good "overhaul" as a result of the influx of new Pokemon and moves, and also any changes to existing mechanics.

If there is a new Type, any new Type, I really think it should hit Steel at least neutrally, if not super-effectively. Because if there's one thing an existing Type does not need, it's Steel gaining...

I doubt GF would make just one cover legendary of a new typing. If we do get a newtype, Xerneas and Yveltal would either both have it or neither would have it.

Well there are 153 possible type combinations, of which 108 have appeared. So with 649 Pokemon, any more than 7 of a given combo and you can say it's over-represented.

I believe news releases tend to be mainly based around corocoro. When smash shows up it's usually on the episode before a corocoro release, and not in others.
