Latest Pokemon X and Y screens give closer look at Chespin, Fennekin and Froakie
Lookin' good in 3D there Froakie
Hey, did you all know that Fennekin is a Fire-type Pokemon? Fire-type Pokemon are especially strong against Grass-type Pokemon like Chespin; watch out for Fennekin, Chespin! At this point in the article I'd like to clarify I'm only joking and you don't have to burn me at the stake for insulting your Pokemon knowledge. Nevertheless, I wanted to pass on Nintendo's latest Pokemon X and Pokemon Y media to the community.
Beyond the rather insulting graph above (we're six generations in, Nintendo, we know the starter types by now), we've also got a couple of in-game screenshots of each of the starters. Sadly, I think they might be taken directly from the trailer that was previously released, but perhaps they'll be new to some Pokemon fans. There's also some official art of the starters, as well as legendaries Xerneas and Yveltal (everyone remember their pronunciations?).
Oh! Here's some information everyone might not have known about before, Xerneas and Yveltal's height and weight. This should give everyone some perspective on just how large the new Pokemon are:
- Xerneas: Height: 9’10” Weight: 474.0 lbs.
- Yveltal: Height: 19’00” Weight: 447.5 lbs.
Hopefully this is enough to sate everyone's excitement until we can get some more meatier details on Pokemon X and Y. Until then, the two 3DS-exclusive games are still scheduled for October 2013. If you're looking to buy your own 3DS, this Fire Emblem: Awakening bundle is pretty sexy looking.

I think the majority of Pokémon fans like Fennekin more tbh. xD
But I think each starter has a really good fanbase. I'm sorta in all of them, but I think Froakie is still the best. :3
You are a midget. But don't worry, you can be a midget with Lady Gaga. :3
Lol, it looks similar, but not that much. Just the same body shape, lol. xD
Also, according to another thread here, the evolved form's typings will be Fire/Psychic, Grass/Dark and Water/Fighting. If that's true, then each pokemon could effectively fight off the starter it is weak to with its secondary typing, what with the whole Psychic>Fighting>Dark>Psychic thing.
They are all so cute. :3 Froakie especially because it has an awkward cute look.
Also just looking at that close up screenshot of Froakie, that looks like an Ice type move. I did not notice that before.
I don't really see any close resemblance between Chespin and Oshawott tbh. Like the species they're based off may have something in common, but then again, Chespin seems more rodent based.
Nawh, I think they included it's tails in the measurments.
edit: sigh, only just noticed Kanon's post. My bad.
It's a hedgehog.
It is sorta interesting that their basic shapes are so similar, never payed that much attention to it.
Also Fire is not weak against water. If you use surf on a fire pokemon and the fire pokemon is strong enough and you BELIEVE in said fire pokemon and it LOVES you, the surf will actually act as water armor making it impervious to further water damage. FACT.
Doesn't have to be something we all agree on it's merely how I percieved it.
