I find it hilarious how they changed literally every single pre-existing dark-type move to physical in Gen IV.

Pretty much, because Gengar was the only relevant ghost type for a long time and shadow ball used to be physical.
In Gen 1 Ghost-type Syndrome was referred to as "WE HAVE FUCKING NOTHING"
"here's one special dark move... just take it and go"
That was also dragon.
WAIT. In the beginning, they came from nothing. Ghost and Dragon. Hence Giratina
Seismic Toss hit Ghosts then.
Just read up on that. That's something I can't remember.
Wow, they're nerfing everything. Bad news for special attackers. I'm really glad at least that permanent weather is no longer, though.
Don't know if this has been posted before, but some leakers are testing Stealth Rock and took screenshots. This looks to be the same as before...?
Also, Mega-Gengar is bloody insane. I cannot foresee the Gengarite at the least lasting in OU for long.
I was just wondering if anyone noticed the number of blocks under the names where the exp bar went are different between the two...
It is something we all are missing, no.
Yes. It's the exact same as his counterpart Yveltal.
In that case, what is Yveltal's spread?
So yea, I'm really hyped about the multi battling being added to X and Y.
I've been waiting for this feature since generation 4!

Unless IVs are what determines the hidden power type still. all 31 ivs will probably still be HP Dark. Although they no longer determine its base power you may still need a spread of something along the lines of 31 30 31 30 30 31 to get hidden power fire. obviously you could have base stats that are worse and still get it without affecting the base power but obviously you will want the highest possible stat total.
Have there been reports of any major plot differences between the two versions? I keep searching but I'm coming up empty.
Ah. I was assuming that there was an NPC that can allow you to change the type of your hidden power and that it's not based on IVs. In that way it could work.
apparently they have plot differences, y version having more of a "brutal" twist..
