– I’m looking forward to Pokemon X and Y. Does anyone know if i can download it directly to my 3DS, or do I need a physical copy? If I can download it, how soon will it be available? I thought about ordering it from Amazon, but the earliest the’ll deliver it is on the 16th. The local Camestop has a history of taking pre-orders and then not having enough copies for everyone. I don’t want to wait!
I’m pretty sure you can just download it, at any rate, that’s what I plan to do!
Nobody expects the Surprise Elephant.
Is that anything like the elephant in the room?
Hannibal did quite well using the Elephant of Surprise. 🙂
Nice.
Unfortunately the Mountain Paths of Narrowness and the General of Impossibly Long Delays defeated said elephant.
Midnight Eastern time on the day of release, assuming it will be available digitally.
My Gamestop had a habit of selling my copy off before I could get in. Since I worked the same hours that Gamestop was open, I’d have to wait until I had a day off. Their excuse was “Well, you didn’t pick it up the day it came in!”
My response was always “I paid the whole thing off well in advance. How is it a reservation if it’s sold when I can pick it up?”
Right?
Worldwide release is October 12, I don’t know about trying to download only but I very highly doubt you’ll see anything before that date.
I was hoping it might be available for download early, with a time lock for play. of course, that only matters if it takes awhile to download. If it only takes a half hour or so, that’s fine.
It will be available to download, as far as I’ve heard. Supposed to take up 1.7GB (13700 blocks). My source is Serebii.net, good place to go for info on the Pokemans.
People are always ignoring the elephant in the room, so it took on the secret identity of The Elephant of Surprise. It now fights crime on the streets of Metroburgville City.
Ha.
There is no plan, is there, Marah.
Google searches reveal there should information about it in the eShop and it should require approx 1.7 GB of storage space. I’ve never used the eShop, but there may be a release date listed there if it is like other online stores.
X/Y is coming out Oct. 12. I usually get my copy(s) from Gamestop. You can download it to your 3DS at midnight on the 12th. But then you can’t trade it in when you’re done.
To find what is new and awesome in X/Y, go to:

Like an elephant in a streetcar, right? I totally get you, Modest!
I’m not finding anything that specifically says whether or not Pokemon X/Y will be available on eShop on the 12th. I’ll probably have to look at the actual eShop on my 3DS to find out. In that vein… Yep. 3DS says things like “Nintendo 3DS Retail/Download” as well as “Coming to Nintendo eShop.” I wouldn’t expect Nintendo to do pre-downloads. I’d just keep eye on what time, and what time-zone it’s going to release you can catch your Pokey Mans as soon as humanly possible.
Also, Pokémon-Amie. Hehehe. I was the one who mentioned Pokemon XY/XX, Feel the Magic. It looks like I wasn’t the only one who had that idea! It’s just a more kid-friendly version, I’m sure.
Still, I’m feeling smug and proper right now. If I were wearing suspenders, I’d snap them SOOOO HARD!
While I’m thinking about it;
How do you kill a blue elephant?
The same way you kill a normal one>
You take a blue elephant gun and shoot him.
How do you kill a pink elephant?
The same way you kill a blue elephant?
Maybe AA?
You grab the pink elephant by the trunk and hold it until it turns blue. Then, you shoot him with the blue elephant gun.
It will 100% be available for download on the day of release. Nintendo advertises such on the Club Nintendo page. I would ASSUME it’s available right at midnight.
Maybe she’s thinking of the ‘Elephant in the Room’?
I’ve always had a love-hate relationship with pokemon. I loved Gen 1 and Gen 2, but I HATED Gen 3. I rather enjoyed Gen 4, but outright refused to get Gen 5. I assume I’ll probably like Gen 6, since I’ve had a theme of enjoying the Evens and hating the Odds.
But all that is kinda moot, since I know me, and I know I don’t have the money to get the game til Gen 7 is on the way!
Probably going for the Fire starter, like I always end up doing. Brother always takes the Grass, sister always takes the water… leaving me to fill the void. Not so bad considering I LOVE fire magic and anything related to fire (I think I might be a pyro). But I swear to the gods above and below… if this is another Fire/Fighting starter, I will rip my flesh off and send it to Game Freak! (Tho according to the released move-pool it has, most suspect it may be a Fire/Psychic type, which could be new and interesting!)
I’m not sure of the exact time the games will be available for download, but they are already listed in the eShop, so you could place them on your eShop wishlist and you’ll receive a notice if they’re available for download when you open the eShop.
HA! Surprise Elephant. I like it! 🙂
The worse thing about the Surprise White Elephant is how it maxs out all of your credit cards.
I’m trying to decide if those bumps on their foreheads are just their brow ridges or not. I’ mean, everyone’s always *occasionally* been drawn with bumps in the middles of their foreheads, way before they even got sucked into Yeld in the first place. But suddenly the bumps look like part of a transformation… I’m expecting horns or gems or chainsaws to suddenly bust out from their foreheads soon.
They’re supposed to represent how the skin between your eyebrows folds and crimps when you move your eyebrows.
Is it just me or does Jake look really fatherly in the last two panels?
Hmm…what could the plan be? I’m guessing it either involves Jake dancing the marengo in a purple tutu on the castle battlements to distract the guards or Mahra playing bridge with Momdusa, the Prince, and a very surprised elephant while the others escape. Gotta be something like that.
Pokemon Platinum was great, and I actually got and played Gold and Silver, but Pokemon White was AWFUL! The pokemon were really stupid, or else they were regular animals with bland names – like an obvious pig thing cleverly called Tepig. So I didn’t go near Black & White 2.
Well, I’ll probably buy X or Y anyhow. Actually, I am sure I will!
