4 Ways Pokemon X and Y are Different From the Rest of the Series

If you haven’t heard by now a new Pokemon game is going to be released this October. The new game will feature an entirely different region to explore with new Pokemon. Although those aren't the only things different this time around. Some of the traditional attributes of Pokemon games are going to be left behind. Here are 4 Ways Pokemon X and Y are Different From the Rest of the Series.

A little obvious maybe? But kind of a neat list. I like the new direction, and I hope we'll get plenty of first generation Pokémon!

TruthbeTold4111d ago

I'm so excited for this game, and the promise that it holds, I can't read enough articles about it at the moment.

ShinMaster4111d ago

the article didn't point out anything different between this game and the others aside from the fact that's it's in 3D now...

No new info here if any of you are looking for that.

gunnerforlife4111d ago

is that it? sorry i expected more.
i want them to go back to Kanto and Johto new story and everything (sorry i want ASH to go back to kanto and johto) and actually win a f*ck*ng tornument.

Norrison4111d ago

Pokemon games never had anything to do with ash. You don't know what you're talking about

vork774111d ago

1 its the first full 3D hand held pokemon game to be made?

kesvalk4111d ago

he forgot that the trailer showed a glimpse of co-op.

i think co-op is way more important than the game being in 3d.

Steadyhndz4111d ago

First 2 points are completely the same exact thing, it's 3D...we know this...everyone does...literally.

Setting based in Europe? No, just because a building similar to the Eiffel Tower is in the background does not mean it'll be set in Europe in any way.

Worldwide Release does not mean a whole lot to anyone other than Nintendo. For Pokemon fans that are excited about this...all I have to say is you would feel the same way even if you had to wait for the game. If you really cared that some Japanese people got the play the game before you did then you have too much time on your hands.

TruthbeTold4111d ago

What are you talking about? One of the biggest frustrations to Pokemon gamers who don't live in Japan has been the extra wait for games while Japan has already had them for months. It may not bother you for some reason, but it IS a big deal.

That being said, the rest of your post... Why are you being so petty?

Steadyhndz4111d ago

For one...it is not a big deal. If you're really that upset because some people thousands of miles away who you don't care about are able to play a game before, you really need to set your priorities...Anticipating to play a game...that's fine in my book but being upset that the is out in one place but not in another, then you're a bit messed up in the head. You're contributing to the average American really.

I'm not being petty, I'm simply stating the truth.

TruthbeTold4111d ago (Edited 4111d ago )

Your grasping at imagined extremes and absolute judgments is pathetic. You have no idea what someone's priorities in life are based simply on the fact that they'd rather have a game sooner rather than later. You're just bitching, and trying to do it from up on some high horse. Get over yourself.

You're talking messed up in the head, and American stereotypes, while arrogantly trashing a simple but acceptable article, being a downer for no reason that makes any sense, then telling other people that they are upset. Seriously...

Pokemon Doesn't Need to Sue Palworld, It Needs to Get With the Times

The Nerd Stash: "There's been a lot of talk about Pokemon and Palworld recently, but if anything, Pokemon's new competition should be a sign to change."

Fortunately for Nintendo, the legal team is separate from Game Freak’s development team.

NotoriousWhiz78d ago

Unfortunately for us, as their legal team seems to be more competent than Game Freak's development team.

gold_drake78d ago (Edited 78d ago )

they do tho .. IF there is something to sue for. IP infringement is such a delicate thing.

but absolutely agree on the change

GoodGuy0978d ago

That, have longer dev time, and absolutely get rid of Nintendo as the exclusive platform. Imagine a AAA pkmn game on current consoles or next generation.

But money, they'll make billions with little effort.

badz14978d ago

you know that's never gonna happen

FinalFantasyFanatic78d ago

Gamer Freak, Creatures and Nintendo all have a stake in the Pokemon franchise, Nintendo especially will never let them go, I don't know how Creatures or Game Freak feels about it. Plus, the other two don't have a financial incentive to ditch Nintendo, they make mega bucks regardless. Although I think Nintendo should help Game Freak out more since they're clearly struggling, other they'll all just have to accept longer dev times and bigger gaps between games, or maybe just make some cheaper low-tier games in-between.

shinoff218378d ago

Idk yall. I'd take a Pokémon jrpg over a Pokémon with guns, online play etc. Plus wasn't Pokémon mobile pretty fking big like 4 years ago then covid hit.

--Onilink--78d ago (Edited 78d ago )

Even Scarlet/Violet had sold 24million as of early November (and undoubtedly sold even more during the Holidays), its not like they are currently suffering.

Yes, there are plenty of things I would like Gamefreak to do better, and yes I happened to like Palworld, but not because its a Pokemon clone, because its not, but because its a good survival game, something that I have zero interest for the mainline Pokemon games to become.

Most publications keep bringing up these topic ls just for clicks, because clearly the game is your typical survival game (most who do well on PC) with some Pokemon sprinkled in and not a Pokemon competitor, the core gameplay loop is clearly just Ark with dinosaurs swapped for Pokemon like creatures

And again, while I’m enjoying the game itself, I hope it doesnt set a new precedent for what we expect from game devs these days because, based on their other games, this developer really seems to basically just try to go as close as possible to ripping off other games without getting into trouble and then not really following up on those projects as promised (Craftopia players seem particularly angry).

I doubt they ever expected the discourse around this game to reach this level of popularity to push those insane sales numbers, and they actually take the opportunity to increase the quality of their work

FinalFantasyFanatic78d ago (Edited 78d ago )

I'm going to say something somewhat controversial, the last set of Pokemon games weren't that bad, it wasn't a great game, but a good game if we ignore the performance issues (and I personally didn't have many bugs).

They just need more interesting towns and NPCs (give them interesting dialogue, there's literally no reasons to talk to NPCs), interesting areas/locations (like the sunken ship and Bellsprout Tower), and some decent side quest, there isn't really any interesting side quests in those games, and fix the barely there lore for the game (Idk even know what was going on with those 4 "legendary Pokemon"). And maybe add less new Pokemon into the next game so they can transition more of the older Pokemon into 3D.

I think Scarlet/Violet had the potential to go from a good game to a great game if they implemented most of those ideas, but they also needed more development time to optimise the game as well.

Profchaos77d ago

Yeah agree id take a remake of red in the style of the links awakening remake any day of the week

Profchaos78d ago

No they don't I don't want any of the gameplay anywhere near Pokemon the only link between them is the idea of Pokemon except there's guns you enslave humans and Pokemon and there's a survival aspect.

Pokemon is fairly family friendly can't see Nintendo going ok let's give them m16s and slaughter each other
