Thread: Pokémon X and Y Pokédex

So do you guys figure the pokédex will be similar to the one in the eshop? Cause that would suck for people like me who speant nearly $20 on that thing.

Back on topic, what do you predict the pokédex will be like? More advanced? Simple? More organized? More anime-ish?

Hopefully they'll just have like a 5 dollar or free update for the pokedex pro thing, and as far as the dex in the game goes as long as it makes sense i am fine with it.

Also: keep my feature to make it into a "Shine dex"!

I want to be able to use the pokedex mid battle to 'scan' opponent pokemon and find out more about them without having to use a wiki.

O_o Ofcourse! The pokedex! That I didn't think of this before...


3D probably, with them moving maybe.

I say it'll have the 3D model for each Pokemon and any info/Pokedex entry and location on where it can be caught. Id like it if the shiny Pokedex entry feature was kept, a neat touch, its nice to see how many shiny Pokedex entries you can get.

I personally hope the X/Y regional and national Pokedex is like Pokedex 3D, just with Gen 6 Pokemon and you don't have to spend $20 on it.

Whatever the XY regional Pokedex does i hope it features starter pokemon from other regions.

I'm wondering what the Pokédex will look like. Here's what's happened so far.
Kanto (1): Not based off anything sicne the series was just starting out.
Johto (1): Game Boy Color
Hoenn: Game Boy Advance
Kanto (2): Game Boy Advance SP
Sinnoh: Nintendo DS Lite
Johto (2): Nintendo DSi
Unova: iPod

If I were to guess, I would say it'll be based off the 3DS.

I like this idea. Makes it easy to learn the new pokemon without having to google it.

Yup, would be quite awesome.

3 things I hope the new Pokédex has:

The ability to see all the forms (shiny, alternate, whatever) like BW/B2W2 had or better.
A Dex feature that lets you see what Pokémon are in what area like in B2W2.
A 3D model viewer, with a rotating view controlled by the touch screen so you can see the Pokémon from different angles (front, back, side).

I'd also like to see a return of height and weight being compared to the trainer. It made things so much easier to visualize in my head.

Keep the metrics for the PAL region.
Or at least give us the ability to switch back and forth between the systems. Why they haven't done this earlier I have no idea, but something needs to happen.

Aside from that, I like the sound of a 3D viewer where you can freely rotate a Pokemon around.

A 3D viewer with a 3D model of the trainer beside the pokemon for comparison all around would be excellent. Possibly a camera feature to take pictures (2D or 3D) of the pokemon you've caught via AR? It'd be cool to have a picture of yourself chilling in your living room with your team of awesome bad-assness.

I'd be happy with something a lot like the Gen 5 dex, but with 3D models.
