I thought I will post this here even though many might already know it from other sites but Nintendo just announced Pokémon X and Y for the 3DS though before I write a very long text I just will post the Nintendo Direct and leave it to Iwata^^
The key-points are:
-It's in somewhat cel-shaded 3D and to me the graphics look glorious even though it's still a bit rough and empty at times they still have enough time to fix it
- Simultaneous worldwide release in October 2013! :D Yeah that's right no more waiting!
- Some parts of the game-system seem to be overhauled and I guess wee will get more details about this later^^
Aaaand here are the new starters too
And heck, I'm 23 now but after seeing this announcement I still feel like 7 in 1997 again when I waited impatiently for the release of Red and Blue, oh god I can't wait! Fennekin will be my starter! :D
A new Pokemon game for a new (actually around two years old now) Nintendo portable. Wee all saw it coming.
Still X and Y was the best they could come up with?

Somewhat reminds me of the newer Dragon Quest games (8 to 10)

The starters look as retarded as ever. Still think the starters haven't been good since the ruby/sapphire /emerald days. Will be interesting to see what "overhauling" they have done, can only do so much with pokemon.

Also, that game looks amazing. I can't wait!
Same here, I've always gone with fire except right now in Black in which I went with the grass starter cause he looks cooler.
Yeah, Tepig isn't really all that great. Once I got Reshiram, I stopped using Emboar altogether. If I get White 2, I'm definitely choosing a different starter. I'm not starting new game on Black, because I've already transferred all my Pokemon over to that version, so I'd lose a lot of data.

From colours to precious minerals (which are still somewhat used as colours), back to colours and now to chromosomes.
I say it's quite imaginative and a step in a different direction.
