I don’t know about you guys, but I am beyond stoked about Pokémon X & Y. Fairy-type pokémon? I mean, uh, yes please? I’ve only been obsessed with fairy-related-anything since I was thirteen! Fairy-type is the first new type to be added to the game franchise in a decade, and the new Fairy-type pokémon, Sylveon, is not only extra cute but comes with a special move called “Moonblast” that will channel the power of the moon to attack the opposing player’s pokémon. Think of Druid’s “Moonfire” from World of Warcraft except way cooler and less irritating while in PVP.
Courtesy of Nintendo, we were sent some awesome new screenshots and artwork for y’all to check out, so get checking! After Animal Crossing: New Leaf, this is probably one of the most-awaited 3DS games of the year. The release date is October 12, 2013. I’m pre-ordering this sucker so I can power-grind my pokémon from level 1-15 and breeze through the game in a weekend. Wait… me? Obsessed? Pfffft, yeah right.
