Understandably people feel a little bit shortchanged with only 70 new pokes. I mean I do too, but think about this.

A 3DS cartridge can store about 8GB of data. Pokemon X/Y takes up roughly 1.7GB (so ive heard). So the lack of pokemon was probably due to a shortage of time, not space.

But this is a next gen game. Don't you guys think its' pretty possible there'll be future expansions of more pokemon/post-game features, that you can download from the eshop??

Just food for thought
