New Leaked Images for 'Pokemon X and Y' Show Off a Legendary

8CN: More leaked images are popping up for X and Y, but the most recent one may be the most exciting. Or most dissapointing, depending on your preference. Legendary Pokemon Zygarde was posted today, filling out the trifecta we've been accustomed to in recent generations.

So I guess it's back to the classic formula of releasing two game then a third.

IMO, the Z pokemon looks pretty ugh. I'll stick with Y since I think Yveltal looks the best.

[-Foxtrot]

It's pretty clever it being like that because I can defiantly see that being the Pokemon Z Mascot by the shape of it.

Well I think I'll hang on and get that instead next year

[TekoIie]

Kind of crappy design tbh :/

I'll probably warm up to it like most of the others.

[abc1233]

Badass looking charizard outweighs the meh legendary, X for me

[thehobbyist]

Yveltal is just a Rathalos ripoff. Moving on.

[DestinyHeroDoomlord]

Nailed it haha

[CaptainPunch]

Don't like the design as well

[RobbyGrob]

An anorexic deer with a body-mass index of 10 and a crown that would break its neck if it relaxed for two seconds along an intensely embrace-prone vulture with a hand sticking out of its crotch.

What's not to like? Japan in its prime.

This is old news. And yes the design is horrible. Didn't Will Smith kill something like that in men in black?lol

[OhMyGandhi]

you talking about edgar?

[DestinyHeroDoomlord]

What his career? Just kidding

[Kalebninja]

i like the design but im still mad that this gen has less than half the amount of new pokemon then the 5th gen they better give us more when they release z

[trenso1]

for a legendary the design is kinda piss poor, and an ice type is going to completely wreck it.

[TripC50]

Honestly, I like this kind of legendary instead of a tiny mew type legendary.

[trenso1]

they always have have a third legendary and the the tiny "fairy" legendary i.e Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, manphy etc.. I hope we get a tiny legendary again. But I am like gen VI a lot more than V so far, it is only this and the sword pokemon that im not too fond of.

Pokemon Z confirmed.

It looks like a serpent, which lines up with the ZW-chromosome (found in reptiles), the Z axis, denoting 3-dimensional space, and also corresponds to Nidhoggr, the snake that dwells in the roots of the Yggdrasil in norse mythology and chews on them ("deep in the cave where it lives"). I figured it'd be called Zidhoggr or something but I guess they went for Zygarde instead- don't get it. Anyhow it matches up nicely. Yveltal occupies the vertical Y-axis (it's a bird in the air) and is just like the eagle Velfodnir that flies around the Yggdrasil, Xerneas then occupies the horizontal X-axis and is confined to the earth's surface, and it's name is kind of a rough portmanteau of the 4 polychromatic stags that frolic around Yggdrasil, with an added obligatory "X" in there to correspond to the whole X / Y thing.

[OhMyGandhi]

well said.

[kirbyu]

It's probably gonna have an X form and a Y form and we'll get Pokémon X2 and Pokémon Y2.

[pinzir]

I for one like it. It does not look like a typical dragon. And its just something nice for a change. Maybe im over thinking it but ehh

[DestinyHeroDoomlord]

I also like the way it looks

[jakmckratos]

70 pokemon is a weak number..it just is. Especially given that they've done so many of the ideas before like a fire fox, water based crustacean and a sea horse...

how about an electric cheetah, water/psychic dolphin, fire/dark tiger, ice/ground wolf, rock/ghost gargoyle, a ground armadillo, an electric/bug firefly, a poison/ground gila monster, a flying/fairy griffin, steel/electric android.

They could also do characters that are homages to other Nindendo characters...make a Bowserlike pokemon that is fire dragon with a pre-ev that looks like Bowser Jr, Luigi could be fighting/ghost, mario could be fighting fire, peach could be fairy, toad could be poison/grass...then do kirby as an evolution of Ditto, yoshi as a dragon, link as grass/steel...

Okay i know those are redonkulous but maybe a couple could end up looking cool..all I'm saying is they need to think of things people actually would like

[OhMyGandhi]

the water/psychic dolphin idea may just give me nightmares.

[game-boy9101]

there already is a ground armadillo sandshrew and sandslah but i love the idea of an ice ground wolf fire dark tiger and all your ideas except for the whole make luigi a nintendo character etc

[papajag]

I knew something was missing from Pokemon. Japanese games are never complete without any tentacle monsters.

[DestinyHeroDoomlord]

Gotta play as the girl now

[BlueEye]

Let's hope it gets the Giratina treatment. As in a alternative forme that becomes the mascot of the third version.
