Pokemon X and Y


I coulda sworn it was gonna be Pokemon Volcano Ruby an' Pokemon Ocean Sapphire! They even had items that ain't got no use in-game! But nope! It was all a joke!

Instead, we got somethin' better: Pokemon X an' Pokemon Y.


I ain't got a 3DS, but this is gonna make me get one. Hey, I got practically a year before I need it! I can geddit before October!

The best thing to do is analyze what we know so far. So I'm gonna start with the names. The freakin' names.

"X" an' "Y" don't make no good names for Pokemon games. The color scheme worked, an' I get why they'd drop it finally, but X an' Y are too generic to actually find with ease! Like "N".


Plus, it don't make much sense. Is it a math Pokemon game this time? I can say that Pokemon Black an' White ain't black an' white. See? 'Cause the game talks about conflictin' ideas. So why X an' Y?

LEGENDARIES, THAT'S WHY.


They ain't gave us no names yet, but don't they both look like Y? I gotta say, I'm glad to get rid of the Dragon legendaries. They was too much.

They also ain't the only Pokemon revealed. We also get the starters! AWESOME! So let's look at 'em!


Already failed! It's just Oshawott repackaged! I gotta say though, it's nice that the Grass starter ain't a frickin' reptile like every generation ever.


This got promise! It don't look like no Fighting type, nor a Journey to the West guy! I like him!


This I'm gonna get. I always got a soft spot for frogs, like the Poliwags an' Seismitoad. Plus, he's cute an' got ruffles! That's alright by me!

Then there's the graphics. Some don't like it. I do. I like it a lot. It's got promise for a new generation with possibilities.

Which is my problem with Pokemon X an' Y. Black an' White never stood a chance. We never got games that makes us care enough outside of the main line. Magnagate? Not even all of the Pokemon from Gen 5. Pokepark? Not interested.

It's also real soon. Not even five years go by an' this comes out? What a world!

But I'm excited for the games. Hopefully there's actually new mechanics or I'll just be the Peeved Professor. Next time I'll talk about what I wanna. You don't gotta tune in, but you miss out that way.
