Cool points:
Will have all the pokemon from the previous games available. I'm still gonna import the shit out of my games to it. So yeah, we might not get as many new pokemon as I was expecting/hoping for, but that's cuz we get to catch 'em all. For reals this time. Sux for those of you with hacked pokemon, cuz the import program is gonna prevent those from crossing over. Fairer metagame, wot.
Pokemon are given real voice instead of the purely synthetic sounds from before. So I guess they spent some time getting audio already used in the cartoon series and recording more for those not covered in the show yet.
kinda like how the player search system will be in the bottom screen so you can trade or battle with friends if you happen to be online at the same time, instead of always having to arrange it before-hand.
Pokemon not likely to move onto wii u. Said it's because the handheld is mobile so you can go out and meet people. I say it's cuz wii u sales suck so far because system and library are really terrible right now.
Hint that they might work on a new, updated snap in the future. They should exploit the shit out of the hand held screen as the controller for the camera.
I guess they have been listening to fans lately. all pokemon from all regions, character customization, improved wifi visibility, more friends/rivals, easier to level up pokemon, easier to EV train and actually see the boost. Is this the pokemon game to end all pokemon games?
