I really think the new system will work, and it will be fun, 2 things i am really looking forward from this set is the Basic Metal/Dark energies, and the Lv X system that sounds like so much fun ^^; The new Pokes look great and powerful, EX quality w/o the EX penalties.Think of the posibilities when you could still "Evolve" a 2 stage, or should i say lvl up. The new weakness and resistance is great, makes it more true to the gameboy game making pokies that are 4x weak like gyarados more powerful, but with a draw back, horrible weakness to lightning. Well we wont know until it comes out anyway.
You may all stand now... ^^
