It has been stated previously that Pokémon friendship would have a bigger role in X&Y - game director Junichi Masuda listed this as one of the features of X&Y:Ī new battle mechanism that allows your Pokémon to become even more powerful when the bonds you share grow stronger. On the Super Training screen your Pokémon's real base stats and EVs they have earned are shown as a spider chart, in green and yellow colors respectively.Ī feature called Pokémon-Amie lets you bond with your Pokémon by petting and feeding them. Confusingly, these are referred to in-game as base stats. Super TrainingĪ new set of mini-games known as Super Training allows you to more easily train your Pokémon's Effort Values (EVs). The game uses an innovative communication system that makes it feel as if you are playing with other players around the world. People around the world will be able to simultaneously experience Real Play. The Pokémon Company president Tsunekazu Ishihara said: Also integrates with the 3DS' friends system. The tower has a gym logo outside, implying it is Lumiose City's gym.Ī new communication method called Player Search System (PSS) allows you to find other players locally or globally to battle and trade. It includes a large tower not unlike the famous Eiffel Tower. The large city is Lumiose City and is based on Paris (in fact, it matches up exactly to Paris' location in France!). It is based on the northern half of France. Pokémon X & Pokémon Y are set in a new region called Kalos (see map to the left).

Furthermore, some Pokémon from previous generations will be reclassified as Fairy: currently only Jigglypuff, Gardevoir and Marill have been confirmed. There will be several new Fairy type Pokémon and moves, with new Eeveelution Sylveon (see below) being a notable example.

The intention is to try and balance out the types a little more and as such, Fairy is super-effective against (and immune to) the notably powerful Dragon type. However, Rollerskates - which allow much faster movement around the towns and routes - have sweeping/arcing animations that give the impression of going off the grid.ġ4 years after the types Dark and Steel were introduced comes a new type - Fairy! It was revealed at E3 in June 2013.
