It's no surprise that with every step forward, gameFreak takes two or three steps back when it comes to features. That said, what are some of the features you think will be removed from XY?

I'm betting on:
No more seasons
No more night/ day cycles
No more gym leader rematches
No more challenge mode

Ignoring the fact that we've seen screens of a night sky, even thinking this is completely asinine.

These two would be entirely retarded, the only reason they left day/night out of the GBA games was due to the internal battery/memory systems being tied to the time system. The DS games all base the time and date feature off the DS's clock. Date is there too, so removing that would just be stupid. Why would you even bother removing the system that's built into the handheld? Maybe you could argue seasons/time of day AFFECTING things, but it's unlikely they'd just remove them when it's probably one of the easiest ways of making the game look better.
>No more gym leader rematches

These on the other hand, I can see.

Triple/Roatation battles.

Seasons was kind of a dud. It's an interesting concept, but they didn't do too much with it. If they're not going to improve it, I wouldn't mind seeing it go.

Those are confirmed to return, at least in wi-fi battles. And if they're in as a wi-fi option, I don't see why they'd remove them from the game.

It's not like double battles in Gen 3 had a focus either.

There were like 5 in the entirety of R/S and like three in FR/LG. Gen 4 was the one that really pushed it with the stat trainers forcing them and then people like barry teaming up with you against galactic.

I could see seasons returning for the sake of changing textures and stuff. Making grass from green to white for snow or orange for autumn, stuff like that.
That seems way too easily done for Gamefreak to just take it away if they already have day/night shaders in place.

Besides, Deerling and Sawsbuck are entirely based on season. They wouldn't just lose their gimmick if it actually makes somewhat of a difference, compared to the changed evolution method and method of obtaining Feebas/Milotic.

If they want to get rid of seasons, they're not going to keep them around because of that one Pokemon, particularly when there's an easy alternative like location.

Maybe they just won't be catchable in Kalos. Happy?

Include, not be native to the region. You can transfer it in. Speaking of which...

>>14032093
So it's stuck in the form you transfer it in.

Look, I'm not saying this will happen. I'm just saying that "Deerling is the seasons Pokemon, therefore there will be seasons" is at least 250% retarded. If they want to get rid of seasons (and maybe they do, maybe they don't), that won't stop them.

That's even more retarded, because then that would mean you would have to have 4 different Deerling in the game, readily modeled, and everything, but no way for them to ever switch, despite having a day and night system and the same Date functions you can access in fucking Javascript hosted externally from the 3DS itself

You're suggesting they hard code in keeping them as their previous forms over almost literally maybe 5 lines of code.

Considering every single Pokemon except starters, legendaries, and the two D/P exclusives were in Platinum, that's not too unlikely.

I'm pretty sure it was the same case with BW/BW2 too.

Yeah, "include" as in the data is there. You may still have to transfer it in. I doubt I'll convince you of this, but I'd just advise you to prepare for disappointment in a couple of weeks when you can't get all six sets of starters in-game.

Technically it does offer more pokemon than previous since only XY have the newest ones.

But I also think they've put them all in as catchable. Maybe not all of them running around at the same time, but through outbreaks and such having them show up.

It means to me that it will offer the largest selection of Pokemon in ANY of the series. And that all ??? Pokemon ever created will be usable in game, though you may have to transfer them in by trading or other means. Exactly as it's always been.

But if you think that you'll be able to get EVERY starter and EVERY legendary in-game, despite the fact that that's never how it's been done before, just because of a somewhat vague translated statement that can also be read in a much more logical way, fine. I hope you're right. That'd be awesome. Just... I think that's incorrect. But I genuinely look forward to being proven wrong.

>being this naive and lacking any ability to analyze what something means

What in the world.....SELECTION and LARGEST are key words, but nowhere does it say "obtain", it says include. As in include the coding for them. As in, you can use 700+ Pokemon or however many will be in a National Dex at this point. But they are not all OBTAINABLE within the region of the game. It will automatically be the LARGEST SELECTION because this is Gen 6 and it more Pokemon now exist for you to get in a variety of ways solely because MORE EXIST IN GENERAL.

I hope I capitalized and explained this thoroughly enough from different angles for you to comprehend. Though it's probably like the other guy said and you'll go into X/Y still thinking this and be disappointed. Either way, everyone else who understands what this actually means laughs.
