New Pokemon X & Y

[Ursaring]

Hmm the more I think about it the less I mind it. I hope togekiss is flying/fairy. 


I would definetly pick up a fairy/dragon type, idk I just think it would look awesom.

Also hoping for a octopus ,and maybe a FAT frog. Actully I am hoping for alot of things.

I don't like the sound of fairy I prefer light. And I doubt there be a fairy/dragon type since if the vid holds any truth then it be immune to dragon one of dragon major weaknesses and it would gain the dragons buff to handle those other weaknesses for the fairy.

i don't see any point in having a fairy type unless theres gonna be atleast 3 of them

[Ursaring]

@Vulpix mawhile,clefary,togepi,jigglypuff,  and sylveon would all porbly be fairy type along with some others. Not to mention I am sure slyveon would not be the only new fairy.

@Humen We have pokemon with 0 weaknesses ,so that argument hardly holds water.A dragon/fairy would have 3 weaknesses. I was refering to the way it would look though. A dragon with butterflyish wings has always seemed charming to me.

All I see is flygon when I think of a dragon/fairy and what pokemon doesn't have a weakness

I hink I actually stated a while back a bunch of the logical rreasons why a new type is unlikely, although I don't think it specifically dealt with fairy. Not getting into that again, but I stilll say no, there  will not be a new type.

Actually, let me link y'all to a theory, it has to do with the official pokemon TV show in japan, pokemon smash.

Okay, I couldn't find it, but I can quote one that has the same outcome.

Pokémon Smash

A little while back, Pokémon Smash had promised that they would give some sort of news about Sylveon, and they did not disappoint me.
After their normal anime re-run, they moved on to a segment on Sylveon where they were "testing which types Sylveon fits". Their findings were:

quote Pokéjungle
The hosts tested to see if Sylveon was Fighting – she failed.
Next they tested to see if she was strong against ice – she was!
She was strong against Ice, so they tested if she was Steel by using poison type on her – She wasn’t resistant
Now answer this: Do any of the characteristics fit any existing type?
The only four types that are super effective against the Ice-type are Fire, Fighting, Steel, and Rock. Flareon has the "honor" of being the Fire-type Eeveelution, and it has already been said that Sylveon is not a Fighting-type, leaving Rock-type and Steel-type. However, Steel was also ruled out, leaving Rock-type.

But is Sylveon a Rock-type? Highly doubtful. Is Sylveon a new type? Most likely.

So, fairy type could still be a thing. Not keeping my hopes up though.

As expected, it has been officially announced that X & Y will be shown at E3 (Nintendo is holding a conference there, just has a booth).

From Serebii:

As has been announced within their E3 schedule, Nintendo is due to have a special Pokémon X & Y Presentation/Q&A at one of the roundtables following their Nintendo Direct presentation. This Q&A is to run on June 11th at 6pm Pacific time within the E3 halls and will last 90 minutes. It is run by Junichi Masuda and Tsunekazu Ishihara, the president of The Pokémon Company. It is unknown if the content for this Q&A will be broadcast on the internet, but we'll provide details as it comes

Then our beliefs will be put to rest a little after that.

All I see is flygon when I think of a dragon/fairy and what pokemon doesn't have a weakness

eelectros(with a ability), sableye, and spirtomb all have 0. Besides it would still be weak to fairy,ice,poison ,and steel. There are TONS  of pokemon with only 1 or 2 weaknes , so I doubte 4 weaknesses will make a op type combo.

[GrizzlyEatsKids]

Adding a new type would mess with the strategies of competitive battlers too much, in my opinion. I still say no.

[shadowbt]

I agree, but unfortunately we don't have a say in this.

[GrizzlyEatsKids]

Unfortunately not, or not directly, I guess. I believe that Nintendo watches out for, and likely not here, but overall, their fans' opinions. Anyway, time will tell. Regardless, I'm still pre-ordering Y.

[BlazingNinetails]

well thank you fenror if we do have fairy types for my brain to hurt more when thinking even alot more to do with pokemon

[Desbear]
