RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
Yveltal isn't the one based off of Yggdrasil. and the only thing that's the same with pronunciation with the names is the Y that comes out like EE
and i just realized that this generation WILL have a pokemon #666 which will end up causing some controversy like alakazam being a satanic symbol, and golbat being a nazi white supremacist (shape of the head and design, and an old card respectively)

Xerneas and Cerf
maybe it was made with Cerf and stuff, but just had the C replaced with X?

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
And wait, why would the number 666 cause a controversy? And I never knew Alakazam was called so... O_O Why was Alakazam called that? Oh wait, read it again.
EDIT: Sorry that I didn't read the rest properly.
EDIT 2: Nvm, Googled it myself :3
I guess that's true.FloodBadge said:

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
it's ok. and 666 is a number people say is "the Devil's number"
my grandma on my dad's side tried to teach me as a kid to never write the number, even if it's the answer to a math problem because it would "notify Satan of [my] life, and he will send hellish demons to collect my soul by tearing my body apart" and some other stupid stuff. she said the same thing about dragon tails, sesame street, and barney the dinosaur

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
I think that they will skip the number 666 to prevent controversies

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
We're on Pokemon 649 now:
9 for the starters brings us to 658.
3 for the bird line and 2 for the rodent brings us to 663.
Usually, after those lines, there are smaller cutesy Pokemon found earlygame.
Pokemon no.666 will most likely be a small earlygame thing. If they used the number and it was a small Pokemon, then I doubt many people will make a fuss over it. However, if they skipped it, people would be confused as to why it went from 665 to 667, and they'd realise that it was delibarately skipped. If they put a Pokemon in that space, I highly doubt it will a Dark/Ghost/Anything that could be offensive.
tl;dr Pokemon no.666 will most likely be a small Pokemon, and not one that is likely to cause controversies.

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
unless it's a Sawk or Throh thing
or, what if you get 2 for bird, 2 for rodent? or 3 for bird and rodent? that gets to 662 or 664. 662 is more likely to have it be something small, 664 makes it a bit more likely to be middle/second stage. also, when you said it's likely to be a small pokemon, if it's 663, that would make 664 basic, 665 evolved, 666 final, or it would be basic pokemon, evolution, another basic pokemon

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
You have a point.
there is a dilemma for the #666 pokemon...If they will skip it, some will make a conspiracy theory about the missing pokemon..which are really far fetched..but if they make a #666 pokemon..conservative people will make it as a symbol of evil or something, even if its a small, insignificant looking pokemon...ive been thinking that problem since the time pokemon reachd the 600 level..

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
Pokemon Fans like us will not give a damn about this things. however, game freak, is a company, and like other company, will make sure that their product (in this case pokemon) will not cause controversies that damage the brand. If you remember the controversies on the past generations about jynx, kadabra, and even banned episodes. they dont want their brand to be associated with things that has a negative meaning..
honestly for me, i dont really give a damn thing about #666 pokemon

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
I'm in love with the elk. It's nice to see a new Christmas mascot haha. Seriously, however, this Pokémon is awesome-looking. I can't wait to hear about their typing. Grass/Psychic for Xerneas? I have no idea about Yveltal. Fire/Dragon? Fire/Flying?

RE: The Two Legendary Pokemon
I know not many people will agree with me, but I actually think that the Legendaries have a sci-fi look to them, even their names sound sci-fi-ish
Xerneas
>Other than the blue fur on its neck and face, it seems to be covered with a dark, somewhat metallic-looking material
>The glowing white streaks on its body bring to mind Tron, honestly
>Its other glowing bits look very strange and unnatural to me
>It has strange, mismatched eyes (apparently), an asymmetrical face (the glowing streaks are different) and its X-irises just scream "cyborg" to me
Yveltal
>Not as sci-fi as Xerneas, but still looks futuristic
>The claws on its wings and tail look like something a robot bird thing would have
>It has a strange, glowing chest area
>Its eyes are an unnatural, electrical blue
>The most important part is the marking on its chest, which seem to look like exposed veins or nerve-system
This is my little rant, and Pokemon seems to like to avert common theories, as when Zekrom was reveled, we all though it was a mechadragon, but it really excised before household electricity! So we may think that these Pokemon look natural, but watch them be some sort of genetically altered chimera creature!
