[[WMG: The Legendaries are the Poke-Gods of Love]]
All major legendaries since Ruby and Saphire have been major deities of some sort (land, sea, and air; time, space, and dimension; yin, yang, wuji). The setting appears to be the famously romantic France, and the name has X and Y chromosomes in it. What better divine portfolio for the cover legendaries than the male and female gods of love?

This is admittedly a stretch, but the small balls on its nose resembles a pair of glasses. And it seems like it will take place in an european country...

[[WMG:The Doubles/Triples Move combo system of X&Y will be far more expanded compared to gen 5.]]

self-explanatory since the fact that only 3 moves limited to starters [[AndZoidberg and Smeargle]] that only had 3 different combos made the gen 5 combo system feel like a prototype.

** It seems to use a stylized dark attack (much like Night Slash works in current games), so presumably it will become Grass/Dark. This works together with Fennekin's more evident Psychic secondary type, and Froakie's plausible Fighting secondary subtype, making the triangle work in both directions, something fans have been wanting for years.




to:

** It seems to use a physical barrage of attacks against a Patrat in the trailer, suggesting it's probably a Water/Fighting type.

[[WMG: N will appear]]
Since he was so popular last gen, he could be the Cynthia of Gen VI.

[[WMG: The BigBad will be based on [[Literature/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame Judge]] [[Disney/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame Claude Frollo]]]].
Since the setting is based on France, we could have a Frollo-like BigBad with genocidal plans of some kind (and possibly a tragic love-based backstory that's LighterAndSofter than Frollo's). The villainous team could be based on religious ministers.

Given the France-based setting, this is pretty likely.

[[WMG: The legendary mascots will have genders.]]
Considering that the versions might be named after the chromosomes X and Y, I think it's possible. Perhaps, the mascot for the Y version could be male and the mascot for the X version female.

[[WMG: Pokemon X and Y will give you the ability to customize your trainer's appearance, (or at least their clothes.)]]
The outfits for the male and female trainers this generation are a bit more plain then usual, almost resembling the outfit of a deliveryman or something similar. This could perhaps be a hint at the ability to swap outfits.

One is a bird, one is a deer-like animal. In Norse mythology, there are animals that live inside the world tree Yggdrasil, namely [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ve%C3%B0rf%C3%B6lnir_and_eagle two birds]], [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%C3%A1inn,_Dvalinn,_Duneyrr_and_Dura%C3%BEr%C3%B3r four stags]] and [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N%C3%AD%C3%B0h%C3%B6ggr a dragon]]. Of course, this could merely serve as a conceptual basis, like yin & yang theme did for the trio of dragons in Gen V.

[[WMG: The plot will involve combining human genetic material with that of a Pokémon]]
Possibly creepy and full of UnfortunateImplications, but considering that the Japanese game logos feature DNA double helix and names of the games are possibly derived from human sex chromosomes, why not?

[[WNG: The Starters will evolve to look like similar creatures]]
* Chespin- What looks similar to a chipmunk but can pass as ab evolution to one?
* Fennekin- A wolf, which is similar to dogs because then we have a 6th zodiac fire type.
* Froakie- A toad, but not any old told, a badass half Psychic Sage Toad.

[[WMG: The main feature of the legendary mascots will involve something that encourages trading.]]
This is based on Satoru Iwata's recent video emphasizing on trading and connectivity. The mascot will at least have something that people wants, it not themselves as powerful Pokemon.

[[WMG: The names of the legendary mascots will begin with the letters X and Y, respectively!]]
This applies to all languages. Maybe except Japanese, depending on the romanji of the name.

[[WMG: The legendary will have mystic powers that oppose each other.]]
But that power is not explainable, nor can it even be described, so they are labelled as X and Y, respectively.

* Add in the fact that at beginning of the trailer, Pikachu was standing atop the actual Eiffel Tower while releasing electricity all over the world. We're probably going to get a region based on France, possibly (Western) Europe in general in the same fashion Unova was loosely based on NYC.

[[WMG: The new region will be the Pokémon World's counterpart of Europe.]]
You can see something that looks like the Eiffel Tower in the trailer, and the surrounding buildings have an European feel. Europe still needs to have a Pokémon counterpart, so X and Y might take place there.
