*Strictly speaking, Zinnia tells us that in the other timeline, the war in Kalos just never happened, period, and the weapon was never built. Kalos (or the area that would become it) must have been in a very different state at the time for the war to not break out, and it's implied by Lysandre's notes that the war started when other countries became envious of Kalos's wealth and prosperity (which was ushered in by AZ, using "technology unlike any seen in that era" to unite Kalos for the first time). Maybe AZ wasn't even around in the non-Mega timeline?

* There will be a shitton of new Mega Evolutions. Zygarde is a given, and Hydreigon is pretty likely too [[TookALevelInBadass so it can laugh in the faces of fairies]]. Speaking of fairies, they could make a few strong and/or cool-looking Fairy-type Mega Evolutions such as Mega Arcanine and Mega Dragonite, since the Fairy-types are pretty controversial right now for their lack of {{Badass}} and/or masculine species.

If you're going by what [[ImageBoards /vp/]] say lately. Fairy will be the equivalent of Generation 1 Bug (due to their lowish stats), Dragon and Steel will be more dominant than ever (with Ghost being a strong new contender), and the only Mega-Evolutions will be those of already powerful Pokemon which will atomise the metagame. To be fair, that board is in full HypeBacklash mode at the moment.

To commemorate the transition into 3D graphics, Porygon might receive a new evolution to match. Porygon-Z was more of a corruption and glitched out version of Porygon2, so it's not really a 'true' final evo if you think about it. So perhaps trading Porygon 2 with a new upgrade disk item will turn it into Porygon 3D or such.

[[EMG: Eevee is native to the Kalos region.]]
Kalos was the first region we could find Eevee in the wild. It's also not a Hidden Pokemon. It's just like any other Pokemon. In every other region, you could only get one Eevee per game, through someone else. Not so in Kalos. It stands to reason Eevee are native to Kalos.

[[WMG: Pokemon X and Y are [[Main/ContinuityReboot Continuity Reboots.]]]]
With the release of ORAS, it has been confirmed that there are alternate universes in the pokemon world. It is said that the war in Kalos never happened in the RSE universe, explaining the lack of Mega Evolution in the first five generations. But that would mean that since X and Y have Mega Evolutions, they take place in the ORAS universe. As such, Pokemon Sun And Moon will follow this continuity and continue it's story.

** Tentative joss based on the logic. Generation VII has been announced, but they're not on new systems at all, and no follow-up to X and Y has been announced.




to:

** Confirmed?...The logic is correct, that a light-elemental type would be a conceptual mismatch with the Dark type (set up with Fighting in Japan), but we did get the Fairy type which encompasses the lighter side of magic and some light-based attacks.

Third game editions for past gen had been improvements from their otherwise-dual counterpart such as graphic-wise, so how could Z one-up X and Y when they are highly acclaimed? By being on the next console that has the capacity to upgrade the game even further!

to:

** Jossed for all three. Hoopa is a ghostly djinn (although it could be argued that it's the cute legendary), Diancie is a more humanoid mutation of Carbink, and Volcanion is more connected to Magearna.




to:

* In-universe, jossed. Espurr are actually having a constant freak-out due to an intense strain to [[PowerIncontinence contain their powers]]. That's partially why ''all'' Espurr are like this, even the ones hatched after the war.




to:

* Slightly confirmed. Zygarde isn't really a trio master as much as a check to the other two's powers.




to:

* Jossed. A high level of friendship/affection [[GameplayAndStorySegregation isn't required at all]], and the process only changes the Pokemon, with the trainer staying the same and in control.



And by flying Pokemon, I mean Pokemon that can flying. They do not have to be Flying-types, have Levitate ability or even be immune to Ground moves! Magnemite is one example where it can enter Sky Battle.

*** Of course. I'm not as tech savvy as you, but my guess was a comparison based on the graphical engine; specifically, the overworld graphics for X and Y aren't as "good" as the ones used in, say, the ''[[VideoGame/PokemonColosseum Pokémon Orre Games]]''. And with this example, what I mean is that the 3DS actually ''can'' pull off the Colosseum graphics (see Mario Kart 7, as its graphics are as good - if not better! - as the ones seen in Mario Kart Double Dash). Now compare the 3D graphics of Bubsy 3D with those of Super Mario Sunshine: of course a single level in the latter game should take as much space as the entirety of the former. Which is why I supposed that Gen IV/Gen V level graphics can allow all previous regions to be crammed into X and Y. And even if, eventually, Game Freak ''doesn't'' pull this off (which is likely, considering the short, NewSuperMarioBros2-esque announcement-to-release timespan), generations IV and V actually seem to show Game Freak's desire to unite the entirety of what we've seen of the Pokémon world so far, the most obvious instance of this being the Pokémon World Tournament in [=B2W2=].
