I know but I still can't say it for some reason. But whatever.

It's just a number..? I don't see the problem. Besides, Japan isn't the US, they don't care about it, luckily. If you don't make a fuss about it, nobody will.
Those examples are a joke, they weren't controversies, nobody had a problem with them. People were actively looking for trouble.

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
What if with all of these genetics theories, these legends become the first gender-based legend. Xerneas can be female yveltal can be male or vice versa.This might make them weaker to level the playing field, as breeding give you bonuses, but still it would totally be worth it. It can also shed some light on why legendaries are genderless (story wise).

They wouldn't be the first legendaries with a gender. That award went to Latios and Latias.

I would presume Xerneas would be female being X and Yveltal male because of Y. I really can't wait to see more of these games. The legends, the starters, and the graphics all look amazing.

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
I like the pokemon and the names =) I want X version!!! I really love the elk legendary, its nice to see something different as a legendary instead of a dragon :/ I needed a break from legendary dragons lol I think the elk is perfect to me!!! =D Almost reminds me of that creature from princess mononoke lol (havnt seen that movie since I was little but I remember a god-like deer/elk creature)

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
I think Xerneas, based on the visual clues we have, is the "Life Pokémon"; whereas Yveltal is the "Death Pokémon". I think the games might be about Life/Death or Creation/Destruction. I don't think they'll have genders at all, like all the other mascot legendary Pokémon.
I have a strong feeling that breeding will change or be enhanced somehow in these games. There has to be some new mechanic at least.
Xerneas is nothing like I've ever seen in other mythologies, which most Pokémon are inspired from. However, it sounds similar to Cernunnos. Speculative interpretations identify him as a god of nature or fertility; so that could also be supporting evidence.
Yveltal just looks like the polar opposite of Xerneas; so it must be the opposite.

Ju-vell-tal

That's how I would say the names. xP
Anyway. If Xerneas indeed has a blue left eye and red right eye, then it must be male (although it looks feminine...) and that would represent XY (male). Yveltal has two blue eyes, XX (female) (although it looks masculine). Why else would one have two different eyes and the other not?
Also note how we saw Xernias's BLUE eye have X (and the other one has two BLUE eyes, two XX, female). The red eye may very well hide a Y!
Also, until now the first version has usually had the more masculine Pokémon (Groudon, Dialga [they even switched the blue and red [pink] versions to keep the pattern!]) and while Zekrom is in White it is still black and it would be odd to make the masculin Pokémon black and the feminine Pokémon white just because of this "pattern", so it is forgiven. (I know that in yin-yang black is female and white male though - that's not the point!)
Anyway my point being that our X here is in the masculine version spot and our Y in the feminine spot.

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
This seems spot on! It also continues to support my theory.

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
think of Yv. Yvonne isn't pronounced Ju-von. It's EE-von. same with Yggdrasil, so i'm gonna say it's safe to pronounce the Y like EE
as for Xerneas, Xavier or Xylophone rule, so... EX-ernee-AHS or ZERN-ee-AHS
i'm guessing Yveltal is male and YY (fish can have YY), despite being pinkish, and Xerneas is female due to XX
maybe that possible third for the dragon, Z axis, and whatever could be XY? if not, i guess they could go with XXYY?? maybe just make it the base of all genderless pokemon??? also, i'd like to see what the mythical fairy will look like

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
I personally am extremely intersted in both of them. Like WPM was saying, they do seem more natural than previous legendaries, which will be a refreshing change! I probably won't be able to buy both of the versions at once and get y first, but I love the name and design of Xerneas.

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
(Edit)
If it's anything like the R/S/E that the two are contrast to the elements.
X is land and Y is air. Something tells me though that there will be two villains who
are like Magma and Aqua who will call upon the power of the legends to either
create life in the sky or more life on land.
I really hope though that they won't have a shiny block on these like they did for Reshiram and Zekerom (Victini too)
because I would like to have a shiny legendary mascot again and not have to wait for a special event for one.

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
Xerneas has a a blue eye and a red eye. Yveltal has two blue eyes. Pokemon X is blue. Pokemon Y is red. XX is female, and XY is male. That might mean that Xerneas is a male Pokemon and Yveltal is a female Pokemon. I'm sure others have already made this connection, but it's just really cool
