XY Separated Pokédex?

The Coastal Dex is blue
Central Dex is white
Mountain part is red.

Colours from left to right: Blue White Red
The pokedex is reffering to the french flag.

That's right !
& makes sense too.. on some screenshots/scans you could also see the Eiffeltower, right ??

Yep.
It's been widely agreed (when I say that I mean like the whole internet) that Kalos takes inspiration from France. (The Eiffel tower-like structure was the main clue, but that and the French flag/Dex coloration is too much to be a coincidence)
 
The coastal dex gives me hope that we'll be getting a decent number of water-types this gen. More than we got in gen V please!

The number of Water types was only really a problem in BW1 when you only had 5th gen Pokemon in the Unova Dex. XY isn't doing that, so I wouldn't expect the same problem anyway.
 
Xerneas will probably appear in Coastal Kalos because the area is blue like Xerneas
Yveltel will appear in Mountain Kalos because its red like Yveltel
And the Z legendary will probably be White and appear in central Kalos
 
It might have something to do with a reward system; after filling a specific Pokédex, a fitting reward could be given that it linked to the place where the Pokémon are found. I also read news about there being more than one professor; could this be linked to there being more than one Pokédex?

I'd actually like this, if you get some sort of reward for filling out each of the subdexes in the Kalos Dex. Hopefully it's something good, like a Master Ball or something.
 
Just a question: is anyone here wondering if the Regional Dex may end up with more than half of all existing Pokémon?

I mean, it did happen before. (RSE, looking at you.)

It's usually about half, I can't see them doing more than about 400 this game.
 
This Pokedex will be a very interesting thing to complete.
I'm thinking that there will be 100 Pokemon in each region.
100 for Coastal, 100 for Central, and 100 for Mountain.

At least, 450. No more, no less. That's what I think.

I suppose it would make sense for them to include 450, since there is going to eb close to 800 Pokemon after this generation's reveal is all said and done with.
It still seems a little high tho.

You are one of those ''I wantz all regions in 1 gAme!!!'' people, right?

450 Pokémon isn't fun anymore. B2W2 had already too much, a lot were just route specific, it felt like a huge mess, there wasn't a consistency. ''How much Pokémon can we fit in one game?'', not even mentioning the spread, which was even worse. 300 is a maximum, although I rather see a number between 200 and 250, but I have to admit that I don't see that happening any time soon.

I agree with you that between 200 and 250 is a good number, with 300 being the max.
Let's face it, we're only going to be seeing about 130 new Pokemon (if that) this generation (unless GF pulls a fast one on us and gives us more than the last gen/not likely). So that means that if every new Pokemon is in the Pokedex, then there is gonna be a vast majority of older Pokemon in the dexes. Which is good.
Because. Like. I hated Unova.

However, Unova always felt small, at least to me. Kalos, on the other hand, seems quite large. I personally don't think it would ruin the fun of the game if the included 450 Pokemon. Heck, I don't think it would ruin the game if they were all in it! But, that's just me. I think with the large size of Kalos, it's safe to say there will be over 200 Pokemon in it.

As far as the separated Pokedex goes, I think it is a very interesting concept. I don't think each section will have equal amounts of Pokemon, though. They'll be close, but I don't think equal.

That's what I was thinking too. And because the region appears to be so large (I too thought Unova was small), we certainly have a possibility of seeing the most amount of Pokemon ever introduced in a new Generation. They did say that the number would reach well over 700, so I don't think we'll see an even 800 Pokemon after it's all said and done with, but there are certainly possibilities. It really wouldn't be that much of a stretch, just 151 new Pokemon.

While I do entertain the idea of games with all Pokemon on 1 region, it's still a mere thought.

I only think the Kalos Dex will have about 450 because of the threesections. In my opinion, it allows for more Pokemon to be present within the games, while still keeping it all organized.

Even tho Kalos is large, there had better be a ton of areas in the region for it to be able to incorporate 450 Pokemon in total. Honestly, I don't know if any region, no matter how big, is large enough to have the capacity to hold that many Pokemon.
But I guess we shall know soon.

Well, Unova was a rushed region after all, made quickly to release on the DS as well.

GameFreak might also pull a DP on us again, giving us only the first half of Pokémon, and saving the latter half for a sequel. Although, with a big region like this I think it will be unlikely. As long as the spread of Pokémon makes sense this time around; (Riolu on the second route!?).

I prefer a smaller amount, it ''forces'' the players to use not just a team full of ubers, younger players will learn to appreciate the ''weaker'' Pokémon as well, which I think, would result in a much more interesting online experience, it is just pseudo legendaries all over the place there.

I also like the consistency of the pre B2W2 games; Pokémon spread over numerous routes, creating a realistic environment. B2W2, in my opinion, well I won't even call it a surprise for every route, because it all looked more like a randomizer.

On the Pokédex, I hope you are right, it would give them an excuse to not include over 100 Pokémon in each Pokédex. We'll see..

I agree, it was definitely rushed, which seems strange, because they had several years to work on it between the release of the 4th generation and the 5th generation. However, they did also release Platinum, and HGSS. So I can see how the region seems rushed.
