Pokémon Y

Pokemon X&Y is most definitely the best Pokemon game released to date. The amount of improvement: regarding graphics, content, IV training/breeding, and models & animations is incredible; especially after playing the Pokemon series since Generation I. New features, such as the revamped Exp. Share and the introduction of Mega-evolution (something Id thought would be very stupid and gimmicky, but actually turned out to be a lot of fun) just make the game a great play-through. A big flaw that kept me from giving a 5-star rating is the games terrible framerate issues. Even without 3D on, the animations in battle suffer from very choppy movement. Actually turning 3D on renders an almost unplayable framerate. Another minor (but very annoying) gripe I had is that the new mode for fast traveling--rollerskates--cannot be turned off and are automatically used whenever you use the circle pad to move.

This game is awesome. I havent played a pokemon game since silver pokemon games have essentially been the same since then but this one just changes all that. Pokemon battles are alot nicer now the graphics finally graduated to 3d models instead of 2d pictures making noises. Im glad I bought this along with my new 3DS XL (zelda edition). The core game is still there but finally got the much needed visual polish if youre an old fan of the series you may want to come back as the old starter pokemon are in this and have a new mega evolution which is really awesome breathes new life into old classics.

Coming from someone who hated Black and White... I love this game. 3D is used sparingly but its wonderful when it does come in. Its not as easy as other newer Pokemon games. The availability of Pokemon with hidden natures is nice (unlike Black and White) but... I do take issue with having to go online (Reddit, anyone?) and add a ton of strangers to my DS friends list in order to get said hidden natures and friend safaris... it was not a fun process. I do respect that the Elite four was actually kind of difficult, unlike some other games in the series. Breeding was drastically improved. The Battle Maison is pretty great. The EXP share, also, was dramatically improved. I find its almost too easy to get levels, sometimes... but I cant really complain when leveling isnt everything and grinding gets kind of boring. I appreciate that it makes your stats and your move choices more important because everyone has insanely high-level parties. I wish it didnt totally blow Sun and Moon away. Its a much better game and so its hard for me to move forward in the series.

Since I have never played this game or any other Pokemon video game. This review is based on what my 12 yr. old son has to say about it so far. Hes only played this video game for 3 days. What you read below..... I have NO IDEA what my son is talking about. Hopefully, you do. Pros: -Pokemon Trainer feature allows you to update the base status of a Pokemon without actually leveling it up first. -The Mega Evolution allows a fully evolved pokemon to evolve one more time making it stronger only while it is battling. -It used to be where you can equip an item onto just one Pokemon. Now certain Pokemon Items can be used on all the Pokemon in your party. -The Pokemon characters and the constant motion during the battle rounds has greatly improved while playing in 3D mode. My son normally doesnt care playing while in 3D mode, but for this game he has used 3D mode more than he ever has before. Cons: They brought back Pokemons from old Pokemon games (or Pokemon regions). While my son doesnt mind the old Pokemon characters, he considers this a con because he was to be introduced to new Pokemon characters. Thats all he has to say for now. I will update as soon as he has more to say about it. Hope this review helps a bit.

I bought this game, and a Nintendo 3DS XL at the same time. I am a male between 18-24, and I used to play Pokemon when I was younger. I actually remember playing the Red and Blue versions on a regular GameBoy! Pokemon has definitely evolved since then. What I found nice is that they actually included the original Pokemon as well, bringing back memories from when I was younger. The game still has the same concept, pick your Pokemon, train them, and beat the eight (8) gym leaders. It has a large amount of new features that come with it compared to what I remember playing, but it adds to the fun and adventure of the game. I would definitely recommend this game.

I love Pokemon Y. When it first came out and in the following months, I maxed out the timer on the hours played. This is a fantastic game and I was super excited to play through it again. The sellers customer service is also excellent! I had some questions about my order and the answered back within 10 minutes

El producto llegó en excelentes condiciones, sellado y funcionando perfectamente. No es la versión regular, es una de Arabia/Singapur. Así que la publicación está errada ya que no especifica en ningún lugar lo de la versión.

For the most part, its the quality Ive come to expect from a Pokemon game, but it still has a few glaring flaws. -First and foremost, they force you to pay a monthly fee to be able to transfer your Pokemon from the 5th gen games. Yes, I know the first month is free, giving you ample time to transfer everything that you cant catch in X or Y.. But its the principle of the thing: there is no reason that we shouldnt have been able to do with this new game what you could with the 5th gen games. What I mean to say, is that here isnt even a technical limitation: 3DS to DS communication IS possible, despite whatever the idiots defending this obvious cash-grab may tell you. Dont beleive me? The most recent Dragon Quest Monsters title, a Japan-only 3DS release, allowed you transfer monsters from previous titles for the DS, This isnt a case of using a 3DS in DS mode, like you might have done with your 5th gen games to transfer Pokemon over from 4th gen games... its true, undisputed, 3DS to DS communication. Nintendo could have done the same thing with X and Y, but chose not to. I could understand setting up this online transfer thing as an option for people who dont still own a DS, but the rest of us got fleeced. Hopefully, enough people will catch wind of this fact, and Nintendo will fix the problem for Pokemon Z or whatever they call the inevitable third version. -After you defeat the Elite 4, theres very little left to do other than to complete the Pokedex. The post-game hasnt been this pathetic since Red, Blue, and Yellow. For a game that I dropped $40 on, I should be getting a lot more. -Only one new evolved form of an old Pokemon (Sylveon)? Really? You can slap however many extra spikes on Charizard that you want, it doesnt change the fact that we still dont have evolved or pre-evolved forms that weve been requesting for a long time. Its not like you couldnt have made room for them. Did we really need an all-new family of moths/butterflies? Werent the FOUR we already had (Butterfree, Beautifly/Dustox, Mothim, Volcarona) enough? -While you have to give Game Freak credit for trying something different with Team Flare, I still feel that their story was really rather rushed. And what happened to AZ after your battle with him? Both issues could have been fixed with a better post game. In summation... the game lives up to a lot of the things Nintendo promised us (the visuals, trainer customization, Mega Evolution, etc), but it also suffers in a lot of other areas. Long time fans like myself will enjoy it (theres even a lot of little references to older games in it), but if you can only buy one Pokemon game this generation, I think Id recommend waiting for Z or whatever they call the third version. I have a feeling that it will expand on the story a bit, give us more of a post game (as usual), and maybe even give us a free transfer option. This is assuming, of course, that its more of a traditional third version and not a straight up sequel like Black 2 and White 2, but either way, you might want to wait.

lots of new Pokemon, and lots of new fun, 2 main issues. 1. 3D is near unusable. there is no 3D outside of battles, and in battles, there is a significant loss of frame rate. Very disappointing. 2. In the attack selection menu, there is no way to rearrange moves in battle. This is stupid. it used to be done via pressing select. but rather than having select do that, select does nothing?!?! whats the point ?

This is the game I have been waiting for as a fan of pokemon since 1999. This is the 3d, all encompassing version of pokemon we had been waiting so long for and the game delivers. Some pokemon designs leave a bit to be desired and there was not a TON of new pokemon, but I feel the changes overall make this game an awesome one. The new pokemon are amazingly designed, the new type, fairy gave us new life to older monsters and the mega evolutions changed the metagame that was quite stale in generation 5.
