    Hmm...I guess this news gives me the opportunity to raise two different charizards, within one being physical and the other special.

    I think I am now going to have to reset my game 3 times to get all 6 starters, and convince a friend to give me a Charizard mega stone from their game.

    Oh shit that's another plus for buying both versions. I can get all the starters!

    Are we sure that the megastones are only 1 per game?

    I thought that
    It was revealed through a leak that they've discovered in a minigame similar to Sinnoh underground. And thus you can just keep finding them?

    oh man my first complaint about the 3d models:
    MegaX Charizard's mouth fire doesn't look very good, it is waving like a tail not billowing like fire

    I heard that for the Gen 1 starters and Blaziken the only way to get their stones is when you get them, or something.

    Either way I am assuming that the X/Y Mega Charizard stones are exclusive to each version.

    I actually am curious if Trapinch (also Misdreavous and Sawk) is version specific

    But I don't think it matters this time since I have internet for my 3ds

    Charizard stuff
    While I am down with Fire/Dragon Charizard, he looks so dumb

    Like Mega Charizard Y looks like the next logical step in the evolutionary chain

    X looks like a 12 year old was asked what could make Charizard cooler and HE IS BLACK NOW AND HIS FIRE IS BLUE

    Isn't half the point of pokemon xy (and mega evolutions in particular) to appeal to your inner 12 year old though?

    Yeah but only partially

    Most of the ones so far manage to juggle that nostalgia with legit cool designs

    This one is full on 12 year old

    I'll admit that his blue flame mustache looks kinda weird in game compared to the art/anime. it's too stiff.

    the engine/artstyle just isn't quite up to the task

    the complaint is that animation on the mouth flames is bad

    which it is, you wouldn't think it was fire the way it moves

    the color is whatever

    I'm not talking about the color, just the....I don't even know what to call it, the flames billowing out of his mouth?

    compare this

    (bigass gif from the anime)

    http://i.imgur.com/fMs7MGY.gif

    to this

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EQcE0e4Mdk

    and tell me it doesn't look weird animated within the actual game

    While raving about the new Mega evo on FB one of my friends is all "oh hey you'll be glad to know he's Fire/Dragon now too"

    I flipped out thinking he meant baseline
