I never really got the love for R/S remakes. Much of the reason for the 1st/2nd gen remakes was because you couldn't receive the Pokemon in that region anywhere else. Ruby and Sapphire are also...

We're better off not trying to predict the metagame when we don't know anything about the new mechanics or Pokemon or new moves etc.

Gamefreak can create any Pokemon they want, having a Dark/Psychic/Fighting trio isn't a crazy idea, and you have to take into account that you are looking WAY too deep into patterns that aren't...

With the rumors going around so far (Pokebeach's hasn't been disproved yet and it's getting more evidence too) it looks like that Fairy will be immune to Dragon, which would significantly weaken...

Yeah but none of those are one 3DS console connecting to a DS console, which is what they'd ideally want to do. I suppose it might be possible to have an app on the 3DS where it takes your pokemon...

The thing that worries me is that they don't know yet, I mean the game launches in 4 months already.

It's possible we might have another 200 play (remember Ruby/Sapphire launch?) when this launches.

If there is some sort of backwards compatability I'm sure it'd be through some Dream World-like...

I don't know if this was mentioned already, but GF is concerned with regards on how to transfer Pokemon from previous gens to X and Y, since DS and 3DS cannot connect normally. There's a chance that...

Those don't sound better, just a lot edgier and they make less sense.


Anyway, since we know for a fact that Fairy is good against Dragons hopefully the metagame will be more balanced in regards...

Aye, my bad.

At the moment, I think Palkia would be the best partner for Latios. Together, they can mess up a large portion of the metagame. Genesect is also a solid option; but I feel like...
