I like the fact that it is focusing a young Motoko. Her background has always been a mystery and it would be nice to shed some light on it. It also explains why she looks so different beyond just a change in style, since she does swap bodies.

It has Skyla's color scheme so I can see the Flying inspiration, but I also think it could be the normal evolution of Eevee. It has the classic Normal color scheme, save for the blue. And since Eevee introductions after Gen I tend to come in pairs I'm guessing there is a Fighting type that we will see.

If you are suggesting a new type you also need to provide the new chart that shows how it will balance out with other types. When Dark and Steel were introduced they changed a lot of the battle by weakening Psychic and Ghost, powering up Bug and Fighting, or the same for Ice, Rock, and Fire and Ground respectively. So…

The games and what we know of canon makes it pretty clear that this isn't a form of slavery. For starters the Pokemon are way more powerful than people, and several dex entries point out how Pokemon terrorize people all the time; and unless the trainer has proven themselves to their Pokemon, they will not obey what…

I'm sure Square will try to put a stop to this, but for Christ's sake I just want to play this game. If I knew Japanese I would gladly just import the damn thing, but I took French in High School and College, and I don't have the time. From what I've read Square already started working on the English version, and if…

Just for clarification, they held the same contest in America for the most popular Pokemon and gave away an Arceus here too.

GameFreak should find out whoever did this and hire them, because the designs are pretty nice. I'd reckon a guess and say that the bird is either Dark/Flying (though we have enough of that already) or maybe even Dark/Fire, with a levitate-like ability. It could just be Fire/Flying.

Yamato 2199 would make a great game in the same spirit of Skies of Arcadia. You can essentially mush Arcadia and Xenogeers together and you are off to a pretty good start.

Ah, I must have forgotten that. I guess that makes the case that there was a shortage that led up to the war.

Why do you think it was the last robe that they were fighting over? I can't remember anything else from the scene or stage that suggested they were at low on the resource. I saw it as two tribes, who use to work cooperatively, at war with each other, eventually splitting the robe and going their separate ways to…

I interpreted the story differently. The robes weren't discovered, but rather developed with the ancient magical energy of the people of that world. Their society flourished, but eventually ideological disputes within the society divided them, and they went to war with each other, eventually killing off everyone but a…

Johto/Kanto Map for the win?

I don't know what Square is thinking, but I don't think the situation is as dire as you make it out to be. While a lot of fans hated XIII, for its stark deviation from the traditional mold, on its own merits it wasn't a bad game.

I had the exact opposite reaction to XIII-2. I felt the story was small and disjointed, and the game environment was tiny by comparison. All of the worlds of XIII-2 could have fit into Grand Pulse from XIII. The changes in battle where nice, but the monster collecting was either and you weren't really forced to…

The .hack series is a bad example, because it wants to put you in the perspective of playing an MMORPG, but it has a horrible user interface. Had .hack or .hack/GU had FFXII interface it would have been great. But a big part of the story was that you were not just a character in the world, but rather you were a…

Here's what I don't get, the argument is that by losing Ash keeps fans interested, but when I look at comparable shows and the games themselves that isn't the M.O. Take One Piece for example, Luffy and his gang continue to face tougher and tougher challengers and they overcome them. They go out and train, you have…

I would not be hyped, because the metagame would change a lot to adjust for the new types, potentially changing whole teams. Even worse if old single typed Pokemon get the additional new typing. Steel and Dark were fine at the time, because at the time they didn't change things too much. Magnemite was already week to…

Do we have any idea or clue as to their typing? I'm assuming Yveltal is Dark/Flying, but Xerneas isn't as clear cut. It looks like it could be Psychic/Grass, Dark/Grass, Psychic/Steel.

I feel as if you are saying two different things here. On your first point, while I am sure they could, ever since G/S, and increasingly since, the legendary serves as inspiration of the game and plays an important role in the game story. So it's hard to separate them from the story and thus game itself, which makes…
