pokémon announcement!

[cobalion]

for those of you who missed the live stream - nintendo had an important pokémon-related announcement today. here's what it was for!

i didn't want to spoil it for anyone, so i've simply posted a link! o////o

opinions, thoughts? i might have to buy a 3ds now (eyeing the pikachu one right now actually!)

edited to add fun speculation to encourage discussion!

- rumours on starters typing: water/dark, fire/psychic, grass/fighting due to moves used in teaser.
- rosa or a rosa-lookalike can be spotted in the video.
- rollerblades to replace running boots?!
- old pokémon seen in video: mienfoo, pikachu, magikarp, kirlia, golurk, pansear, patrat, litwick, psyduck, sneasel (or weavile, i couldn't tell), audino, dratini. rumours that all or most will be available in the game.
- talk of character customisation.
- new region expected to be inspired by france

it's so cool they're releasing it at the same time everywhere. no scramble to try to emulate and translate the japanese version!

i hope it being all 3d models means you can customise your trainer a bit... even if only skin/hair colour
