Pokemon X and Pokemon Y

It'll probably be a while before I even try to buy either the X or Y version, as I still have some business to tend to at the 5th generation's Pokemon Dream World before the Pokemon Global Link is closed for good there. At least the Torchic event doesn't end until mid-January, so I have plenty of time to get that event-exclusive Blazikenite.

WHY IS THERE NO GODdang 3DS EMULATOR YET.

A 3DS Emulator is one thing, but being able to update PokeGen to support the X and Y versions will probably be very tedious.
 
The Pokemon website has information about the final starter evolutions, as well as some AWESOME new desktop backgrounds.
 
Oh my God, have you guys been playing with Wonder Trade? This is seriously one of the funnest things to do ever omg.
 
Yeah, you send a pokemon out to be traded and get a random one from somebody else in return. It's so entertaining, I'm using it to get rid of all the Pokemon I get searching for ones with good natures.
 
Sounds good. I guess if you're lucky you might get a good Pokemon in return, but I'd assume most people have the same idea as you.
 
Holy crap, they nerfed Surf. And moves like Thunder. They changed all the reliable 95 power moves to 90, and all the 120 power low accuracy moves to 110. Except Focus Blast, for some reason. They also made the Pledge moves 80 power. Which I'm glad, those moves were completely useless.
 
It's a small nerf but it's still stupid
 
First impression: I love Amie, it's real nice to finally interract with my Pokemon in such a direct manner.
Man, is the intro real quick! One hour and you already have the 1st Gym under your belt!
The 2D to 3D transition couldn't have been better, props to Gamefreak.
