Many people are looking at these new titles and thinking "Wow, letters! They've never done that before!" This is not entirely true.

Now, first I'm going to ignore the tenth anniversary CD with the same name, the webcomic with a similar name, and the fact that Lugia was referred to as "Pokémon X".

What I'm going to focus on is the old Pokémon game called "Pokémon X". I can't really find any good sources on it (and now Google is filled with X and Y news making finding anything on it virtually impossible), but there was a game called Pokémon X that was going to be released for Game Boy Advance. It was eventually cancelled and became Pokémon Crystal. What the differences were, we may never know, but it may have meant we wouldn't have the Gen II/III barrier we do now.
