Ever since Twitch watches pokemon I have had urges to watch more pokemon

What if it's small like an inactive Pokeball, but when you press the button on it, it grows to the size of a beach ball, and instead of summoning the contained Pokemon with the usual red beam of energy, Magearna pops out from the top and the bottom opens up to reveal their legs?

yeah, I know that it's magerna's "defensive form", but I'm saying that by the way Golurk typed their sentence and showed the pokeballs, I assumed he was implying it's a new type of pokeball, I even called magerna a bakugan last page, lol

I didn't watch the Twitch stream, but I have been watching a lot of Pokemon: XY recently.

It's pretty good, although the change in design and the inclusion of fancy tech (mostly Team Rocket) is a bit new, when the last pokemon series I was watching was Pokemon: Battle Dimension, about a year or so ago.

I never caught the last two Diamond & Pearl series, nor any of the Black & White series.
I also haven't seen any movies since, I think, Zoroark: Master of Illusions.

Leaks of this month's CoroCoro are making rounds, unfortunately all it has for us is an announcement that Japan is getting a Volcanion as a bonus for pre-booking tickets for the new movie.

Beware of fake leaks of alleged starters for Sun & Moon! One rather well-made one was going around earlier today and managed to fool some popular blogs and news sites.

This is why I don't trust pokemon news until I see it in the title of this topic.

An additional page of CoroCoro states that the next issue will be the beginning of Sun & Moon coverage, due April 15th (with almost guaranteed leaks around the 10th)

announcements for announcements

do we know if sun/moon will be new 3ds exclusive?

[Regulith]

it is not

which I'm actually somewhat disappointed about, I really want them to be able to use the N3DS' extra power

though I guess with how much nintendo has been marketing the whole "3DS family" they probably don't want to restrict one of their most popular series to one system

[Reficul]

wait does the new 3ds actually have a different cartridge than the regular 3ds/2ds
why

also it would be really stupid of them to make it only available on the new 3ds imo

also i may have bought a 3dsxl y edition when y came out and its the only 3ds game i have for it
but im not doing that again

No, but there are some games that can only be played on the N3DS because it's more powerful than the standard model, like Xenoblade Chronicles

[Flush535]

ah. if it was n3ds exclusive i would have used it as an excuse to pick up a N3DS. I went to go play my 3DS after not using for a while only to find out it's having problems reading sd cards :/

[Yosher]

they would never limit one of their most popular franchises to the new 3DS

[sir dooble]

I was hoping I'd have a game that will finally use those new buttons on the New 3DS.
