PMJ said:For every one guy who would have an issue with a patch there's five million who won't. There is no reason not to allow XY players access to the ORAS Mega Stones. If they do, then I'll probably skip these games and just stick to simulators.

You must mean BW2 because those are the only games in which there was a new Pokemon that was not present in the previous game.

I can't imagine the patch would be easy, but I can't imagine not patching and still having connectivity is easy either. Then you have to have filters, you have to change sprites. They can't see May or Brendan so what do they sub instead? What happens if I have mega slowbro? Does it just nor allow me to mega evolve it, or does it just not allow me to connect with X/Y users period as log as its in my party? Can you stop new mega evolutions from happening in X/Y without stopping them from happening in ORAS?
I'm not too bothered by it, but it does raise questions. I think everything will be compatible if they do a X/Y sequel and I know I'll buy it.
