    I got my copy of y this morning, The graphics are just awesome! I picked froakie as my starter and bulbasaur. And since there is the torchic event I also got him, so one of each type.

    The deep depths of my mind
    Man, I'm surprised I picked Froakie...originally it was gonna be Fenny, and then I settled on Chespin for about a month before release...then literally at the last second I chose Froakie :/ He's awesome though! Got all 8 badges and about to head to the league.

    BTW, quick question; does tipping actually do anything in game? I saw someone write somewhere (not here) that it increase the odds of finding a shiny...if that's true they can have all my flipping money :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I'm really looking forward to playing Pokemon X/Y. Now that they've released the Nintendo 2DS I can play Pokemon. My bad vision makes it pretty much impossible to play a 3DS without getting a headache.

    Surprisingly, 3D only turns on when you're in a battle, or during a special cut scene. Majority of the game is spent in 2D, which I found pretty cool. I get headaches from the 3D too, but the game is still very good without it.

    Even if the 3d were limited to just that, it would still be too much for me. After all, battles are the key of the game and some battles can be really long. Say if I'm battling the elite four in 3D...not only would I get a hate it but I'd have a hard time seeing the screen and not know what's going on.

    I heard that Y and Z had a major glitch. Makes me glad I waited, because they'll surely repair it by the time I purchase the game.

    It's rather simple: If you save outdoors in Lumiose City, it can cause your save file to be corrupted. People have figured out ways to fix it, but Nintendo suggests never saving outside in Lumiose, only in buildings, or out of the town.

    They're working on a fix.

    Correct me if I'm wrong ,can't you turn the 3D off?

    The 2DS is just a 3DS without the 3D slider.

    Yes. You can play any game completely in 2D on any of the 3DS family of systems.

    The 3D in Pokemon XY is really boring and only in a few areas so I've had it off for 95% of the game anyway.

    Really enjoying Y. The virtual training and pokemon-amie (sp?) is pretty cool, but the benefits you get from it feel a bit like cheating; I only picked up charmander an hour ago, but both he and my froakie have already evolved! Does anyone else feel like this game is much easier than past versions?

    Yeah, I powered through the entire storyline just casually playing it for three days last week, and have been playing it on and off this weekend. My Blaziken has already reached lv 99 with little to no effort and the rest of my team is mid to late 80's

    I find the game to be pretty easy as well - I got through every single gym in one try and even the pokemon league - I really blew each of them away, even the champion. And I hadn't even done any extra training and I wasn't using any overpowered pokemon or mega evolutions. I really like the game but I'd have preferred if it was more of a challenge. Previous games were a lot harder to beat.

    Maybe a load more pokemon will become available with the release of 'Z'?

    This would probably mean that we couldn't interact between X/Y and Z? Seeing as these possible new Pokemon wouldn't exist in X/Y.

    I don't have a DS so I don't know how it all works with the internet and events. Could it be some kind if down load for x/y?

    The 3DS isn't the DS. They could release a free required DLC for X/Y that adds the new pokemon to them.

    (As in, the next time you access the internet on the game, it would force the download to continue)
