So is that Greninja real for the Froakie line? If so, laaaaawl. Terrible.
Chespin's is pretty cool, although it kind of looks like a transformer.
I like Fennekin's. Will still be using.
Since you like the girly Pokemon, will you be using the vagina bird? :p

Apart from it's vagina, it looks pretty cool. I thought that one was confirmed to be fake though, when it was leaked a few days ago?
It's a pretty cool concept, a wrestler bird. Greninja was also confirmed to be fake when it first got leaked so I imagine Nintendo are just claiming everything is fake.

Question for ya'll. I am getting Y, I want the ******* sweet ass X Mega Charizard, if I purchase X also, and trade my X Charizard to Y, will I have the awesome X Charizard or will it turn into Y's inferior version? Same goes for mewtwo, seems Y is getting the shit looking megas.

http://gematsu.com/2013/10/pokemon-x-and-y-charizard-x-unveiled

When Charizard holds a Charizardite X, it can Mega Evolve into Mega Charizard X! This item can be obtained only in Pokemon X.
Mega Charizard Y is the result when Charizard Mega Evolves using Charizardite Y, which can be obtained in Pokemon Y.
Assume it is the same for Mewtwo.

Charizardite haha they are scraping the barrel

Should have made them less individual and made them more type based like a fore mega stone would mega evolve Blaziken and Charizard then they could give it a proper name.

Guy who posted leaks doing a little q and a on instagram

Said Pokemon employees went to the gamestop he bought the game from and he handed his game back to try and save the job of his mate who works there

Although more importantly you can catch a LvL 15 Snorlax!! I love that cheeky mofo

It's probably going to be a hold item that is required from X, rather than trading it into another game.

New rumours:

  • Trusk is a Grass/Rock boar Pokemon with long green tusks coming out of its mouth. He is gruff, has grey skin, and features green leaf-like ears. It has an "adorable" pre-evolution with tiny tusks and a leaf at the end of its tail.
  • A Normal/Poison porcupine Pokemon named Quillom can be found quite early in the game in the forest. It has white skin with light purple quills. He has a Poison-type quill attack which damages and has a high chance of poison.
  • A Ghost-type spider Pokemon is found in caves. It is dark gray with blue spots and multiple light grey eyes. It has a feint light blue mist around its abdomen. The source doesn't remember the spelling of its name, but says it was something like "Apparachnid." He thinks it may have an evolution.
  • There is a Ground-type badger Pokemon that is dark brown with black stripes going up its face. It knows Slash and a new biting move.
  • Reconfirmation that Froakie's final evolution is Water/Fighting. It looks similar to a poison dart frog. The dark blue now takes over its body almost entirely. There are a few even darker (almost black) spots on his sides and face and it gains more of the bubble foam around its neck and down the back. It's also a bit bulkier. It uses its hind legs a lot and has kicking attacks.
  • Bunnelby evolves into a Ground/Dark type rabbit that is larger and much rounder. Its color scheme is reversed, with the dark brown now being the prominent color. It can be found in caves. It is useful because you can get it early in the game and use it to evolve Pancham into Pangoro.
  • Helioptile has an evolution. It is bipedal with a second yellow triangle on its face. Its ears become more jagged and it looks meaner. On its back are what look like spikes with jagged parts at the very top. It can learn a new attack called Thunder Roll, where it rolls up like a wheel and strikes the opponent.
  • Reconfirmation that Meowstic has a pre-evolution named Espurr. There is no gender differentiation until it evolves. It is mostly white, similar to the female version, with cuter eyes and a single puffy tail. It has a little patch of fur under its head (similar to its evolutions). The fur is dark blueish with little tufts of white in it.
  • Other Pokemon that are now Fairy-type: the Chansey evolution line, Dunsparce, the Clefairy line, and Togepi's line.
  • Fairy Dust is a new move that will randomly cause either Paralysis, Poison, Sleep, or Burn.
  • Like Magneton, Wailmer is part of one of the Super Training Facility games.
  • Team Flare makes an appearance right at the beginning of the game. On the TV in your house, one of its members talks about fashion and how your Pokemon should match your style. Team Flare's signature music has an eerie accordion sound to it in the opening sequence.
  • The outfit your character wears at the start is colored to match what you've set as your favorite color in your 3DS settings. It can be changed easily though.
  • The opening cinematic is in 3D. (Have to mention this since most of the game isn't in stereoscopic 3D. :p) It starts off with Yveltal's cry, which wakes you up. You sit up in your bed. It then pans and there is a shot of your city. Yveltal's shadow goes over it. After that there is some other shots of your town. You seem amazed that you saw Yveltal. It then shows generic in-game shots like you entering a forest with your friends, selecting your starter, running through a cave, etc. After that it shows Sycamore welcoming you. You are standing outside of his lab at the time, then he takes you inside. It then shows him showing you three Poke Balls which leads into a transformation video where it shows all three Kanto starters evolving to their final forms, and then the three of them Mega Evolving. It's a really cool cinematic. The video ends with Yveltal flying with the sun behind him, leading in to the title screen. Team Flare is also shown at some point in the sequence.
  • On the title screen you can use the analog joystick on your 3DS to change the angle at which you see Xerneas/Yveltal.
Some of these are true so far.

Final typings look like

Water/Fighting
Fire/Psychic
Grass/Steel

Which basically means the Grass one will have its ass kicked by both starters, especially the fire one with 4x weakness to fire

Really? I think it's by far the best of the three. Delphox is awful and Greninja could've been much better.

Yeah I think it looks horrible. I think the Delphox is just average, could've gone a completely different way. I was pleasantly surprised with Greninja, almost enough to start with it and take Charmander instead (was originally going Fennekin + Squirtle).

Early talk was grass/ground, but screenshots show it learning dark-type moves. Haven't heard the steel typing rumour. Surely they wouldn't be that dumb?

I just thought it looked like it had a lot of steel on it.

Grass/Dark makes a lot more sense balancing wise. Give each of the starters a weakness and a strength vs each other.

Two new megas (not definitely real though; not from a picture of the actual game):

Heracross and Gengar.

Better picture of one of the earlier Pokemon:

That Heracross one has been in circulation for a while now. Think it was labelled fake but just like the Greninja one it could have been incorrectly pronounced...
