They look retarded. We seem to be fighting what are essentially Pokemon Templars.

Edit: Holy shit! A legitimate black person in the Pokemon world!

a rumor has surfaced that nintendo intends to cull all but 12 pokemon from previous generations

this is just a RUMOR

They did with Ruby/Sapphire, didn't they?
I mean, it's sad to see all the old Pokemon go, but Ruby and Sapphire didn't turn out to be TOO bad. They had some good ones in there.

I think that's why I loved the reach Beta so much its a lot closer to CE.

While they haven't been cut from the game, game director Junichi Masuda has recently confirmed that until acquiring the National Pokedex, only Gen. V Pokemon will be available to the player.

Full Story

This means they'd better have a lot of new Pokemon released with this generation. Which hopefully means they'll have a handful of good ones.

In other news, Yahoo has inadvertently released new images and information on their servers.

First is information on Victini, which is now known to be a Psychic/Fire type.

The rest is official artwork of three of the new Pokemon, including one never-before-seen bug-type, which is very reminiscent of Weedle/Wurmple.
