I don't mind there being less HMs if that doesn't equal to less interactivity with the overall scenario. Would like for HMs to be easily removable though.

Belch seems like a really powerful Wall breaking move. Can see some strategies rising from it.

Malimar evolution style, if right, is nothing short of awesome XD.

To expand on the HM thing.

Id be happy with just needing Cut, Fly, Surf and Strength.

The buff to Poison types is pretty cool too. Always felt that Poison type Pokemon were "let down" by Game Freak.

Pokemon Smash aired. It was a rehash but they announced that they'll have weekly X and Y news

Bought myself Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity as part of the reward for registering 3 games and get 1 free on club nintendo.

It's much better than previous Mystery Dungeon games and the pokemon models are pretty amazing .

I played the demo and it was all good and the models are indeed amazing. Looking forward to getting it sometime later. Although, I'm sad that the hunger system has been removed, it made the games more challenging.

From what saw of thr story, I can see it being superior to Blue/Red, but inferior to Dark/Time. Dark/Time was just too much awesomeness.

The story so far (up to the point where I activate Companion mode/Victini arrives on Pokemon Paradise) has been good, and there's a lot of variety of things to do so that the days between story points aren't just a monotone drag between requests.

Hunger mode appears again in the post-game, from what i've heard, but it was indeed sad that it was removed for the main game. The game is a bit easier now, with skill levels being introduced as well (My Level 18 Axew with Dual Chop Lvl 2 just cleans house) and team skills being much more prevalent now. It's balanced with how V-Wave can really buff enemies (got an Electric Wave on an mission that made me fight a Jolteon and my team was steamrolled).

Magnagate Petilils are so much bullshit >_>.

With almost 100% accuracy, 5 turns Sleep Powder, it basically means an KO everytime you fight one of those and you're not lucky enough to find a Reviver Seed, Heal Seed or Health Orb inside the magnagate dungeon. They love to spam Sleep Powder -> 2x Growth -> Absorb/Mega Drain till you're dead, and there's nothing you can do about it.

i played about 1000 hours of DPPt, BW/2 was a lot less at about 200 hours (never finished Black 2). XY will probably see 500 hours though as it looks amazing (although that underground in DPPt was time consuming, so XY needs something similar), yeah i play a lot of Pokemon. Hoping to pick up PMD 3D soon aswell =)

Gates to Infinity is amazing, easily my favourite PMD so far. You won't regret it.

Damn, all the feels at the ending of Gates of Infinity. You're not supposed to make me sad that I just saved the world dammit!
