So anyone want to discuss the newest anime news?
Things Revealed:
1. New season of the anime will be called "XY & Z".
2. It'll come along with the Act 4 of the Mega Evolution special, possibly connecting both series together. This may also mean Alain will meet Ash & co. (though no signs of Mairin).
3. Plot will involve Zygarde (and its new formes) and Team Flare (including Lysandre, Xerosic, and the female scientists). Bonnie looks to befriend one of the Zygarde Cores.
4. Ash's Frogadier evolves into Greninja. Ash's Greninja is special as it slightly resembles aspects of its trainer and also wields water blades which it stores in a water sheath strapped to its back.
5. Ash's Noibat evolves into Noivern.
6. A Mega Sceptile is seen in the background. Current speculation is that its Ash's (though Ash doesn't look to be wearing a Key Stone on him).
7. In the background Anistar City's Sundial can be seen. With its connection to Mega Evolution it may have an important role in the plot.
Out of all this info the only real opinion I have is on the Mega Sceptile. If it is Ash's I'm kind of disappointed it isn't Mega Charizard Y as I would have liked to see a Mega Charizard battle between Ash and Alain. However I can understand why, Ash already has a Fire/Flying, and if I were to pick a second choice it would be Sceptile (though Ash also has a Glalie and Heracross, not to mention a Gible, Bulbasaur, and currently away Squirtle. Oh, and a Pidgeot he promised to go back for...).
