Exciting New Pokemon X and Y Info Leaks

Here is a better revealing one.

Are those numbers confirmed? If so, the rumor of about only 70 new poke are true, but it's closer to 100 with the mega evolutions. Honestly, I'd praise the, on that. Quality over quantity for one, and for 2, there's reportedly a big emphasis on the older pokemon, so that also makes sense.

Lastly, with so few new poke, it should make it easy to feature them ALL in the first few XY TCG sets.
 
Personally, I think its a bunch of crap that they cant make at least 100 quality Pokemon. I hate that the diversity of new Pokemon is so low. 1 Bug line is a disgrace.
 
I kinda wanted to see more new type combos, too. Like Poison/Dragon or Ghost/Fairy or Electric/Fire. IDK some other new cool combos to switch things up.
 
Wow, surprisingly enough, there are no Ground pokemon in this generation except for the legendary pokemon that starts with Z, and the mega evolution of Garchomp! Believe me, that'll be the first thing I'll correct when I can migrate some of my pokemon from earlier games. edit: Mind you, there are only 3 electric pokemon (so they may not come in as handy as I first thought), but they can be useful for poison (which again, there aren't many - 2 in total), fire, rock and steel.

Well, you'll have to wait till December 27 to do so... I just want to pet my Pidgeot I've been raising since 4th gen. Sucks we have to wait so long to transfer.

Really? That long? Wow, that sucks. I'll have finished with the game long before then. I may not even be interested in playing it anymore by then.

I have no idea why we have to wait till the end of the year. I'm not liking any of the decisions TPC are making lately.
 
In others sites show all new pokemons. Are 69 pokemons, a small generation of new pokemons (cuz mega pokemons).
I likeee a new dragon/poison, dragalge, this is a new combination of types. And Trevenant, a new ghost/grass pokemon.
 
Is there going to be a thread for X&Y post release discussion?
Anyhow had a look at all the new pokemon and I must say there's not as many as there has been. While I would have liked for there to be evolutions of previously released pokemon, it's kinda been done with the Mega-Evolution mechanic. I'm surprised at the limited number of new Legendaries. At least we have more chances to get the older legendaries. Though it seems they've moved away from getting mystery gift items for them, which I didn't really mind. Since the third new legendary begins with a Z, it seems likely we will have one third game with that Pokemon as the star ala Crystal/Emerald/Platinum. I hated that they did 2 expansion games for the Black and White series. It also seems they are moving away from adding tons of new pokemon as a whole, which IMO is a good thing. I'd prefer that they stop adding a million new pokemon every generation. I wouldn't mind new regions with the same old pokemon. I dream of the day that all 700 or so pokemon are obtainable in games of one generation. Would be awesome if there was a game with all of the current main regions to do this.
