Alright let’s start today with the news people are probably more interested in and talk about the latest Pokemon game which has been named X and Y. The new trailer shows off this generations three starter Pokemon. The three are called Chespin, who is the grass starter who also looks like a rejected member of Alvin and the Chipmunks; Fennekin, which is a fire fox just like Vulpix in generation 1 and finally; Froakie the frog Pokemon and wait wasn’t there a frog Pokémon in the last gen as well so there not the most creative starters this time round.
Now while Pokémon Black and White had a city modelled after New York the trailer shows a city that appears to be modelled after Paris. Hell it even has what looks like the Eiffel tower in the background. Speaking of the areas Pokemon X and Y will have a completely different graphical style when compared to the previous games. Everything is now in full 3D so the games graphics now remind me of the Dragon Quest Monster Joker and I really like the new style so far. Here’s the trailer so you can make your own mind up. Pokémon X and Y will be released worldwide in October 2013.
Finally, in none Pokemon related news two more characters have been leaked for the upcoming Injustice: Gods Among Us. Recently a magazine screenshot revealed that Bane and Lex Luther, who appears to be designed after Bruce Willis are also going to be in Injustice: Gods Among us and they were later confirmed by Ed Boon on Twitter who added “Uh oh… looks like the cats out of the bag”. Lex Luther will be a gadget character and will apparently be able to use a shield and Bane will be the power character and can use venom to power up his moves. With Injustice: Gods Among Us being released on April 2013 I can’t help but wonder, who else will be leaked/confirmed for the game, but I personally would really like to see Scarecrow as a playable character.
