DS: Unless it's something that I missed earlier, I don't think it contradicts any existing RP canon.

But as for what it could mean...

It sounds like it's quite possible Kalos was where The Vow was brought into being, if the Skiddo Line was the first type of Pokemon that interacted much with humans and it's been pointed out Mega Evolution, which seems to be kind of Vow-dependent from what we've heard of it, so Kalos could end up being central to the bonds between humans and Pokemon in RP canon if we feel like it, if actual canon doesn't head in that direction itself. (Or contradict it for that matter, but I have a feeling that won't necessarily happen until next gen or something.)

If this does end up becoming a thing, though, getting Kalos *somehow* invovled in RtAU would definitely make things interesting, even if it's fairly minor.

I think I might end up with Dune getting a Squirtle. If no one objects to me using the Cloak of Storm's Heart.

Because seriously, what would be cooler than a desperado Blastoise?

From Serebii:

So, if Inkay really does evolve by leveling it up while holding the 3DS upside down... How exactly are we doing to translate that method of evolution into the RP, assuming that's really how it does evolve?

I'd assume the Pokemon itself would have to be upside-down.

OK, if we're getting Mega pesudos I want Mega Metagross SO BAD.

Throw in a Mega Volcarona while you're at it.

Also, Fairy type chart is interesting. Ammy will >:( at it resisting Bug.

Though I hope that rumor about Steel isn't true, even if Lina's reaction to it would be priceless.

Yay at finally having a tyrannosaur and sauropod!

Starter evos are awkward-looking. Then again middle stages always are.

Wow, Mega!Garchomp. It's funny, because I was already thinking "Does powerful Pokémon like say, Garchomp need Mega evolutions?" before I even knew about this. Well, I suppose it looks kind of cool.

And Mewtwo's alternate Mega form... The first thing I thought was, "Wow, Mewtwo, your legs are huge!" Aside from the long legs, I guess it looks somewhat cool.

Also, we finally know what our adorable little Kalos starter will evolve into, or at least their middle stage.

* Chespin's evolution... not sure what I think about it.
* Fennekin's evolution seems to be going for the sort of humanoid lady-like fox look, and seems to have a stick poking out of  its tail. Looks pretty cool. Wonder what its final form will be like? (I bet someone is probably going to compare this thing to Renamon)
* Froakie's evolution... Wow, it looks really cool!

Also, we've got two new fossil mons. A rock/dragon T-Rex and another type of dinosaur which is rock/ice. Interesting typings, especially the latter one.

And now the identity of the white Pokémon briefly shown is revealed. Another dog Pokémon, which I guess is nice.

Ooh, psychic kitties! No, not you, Espeon. Seems there's a new psychic cat Pokémon that doesn't only have different designs depending on gender, but the two genders also play differently. Very interesting.

So, Fairy is super effective on Fighting, Dark and Dragon (cue random Hydreigon crying out in despair) and not effective on Fire, Steel and Poison. The Fairy type is also weak to Steel and Poison (the rumors were true!) and resists Dark, Fighting and Bug, while being completely immune to Dragon. (obligatory joke about the RtAU dragons never having stood a chance)

Random Sylveon: :3

Random Hydreigon: <N-No! Stay away from me!> (drops a Draco Meteor on the Sylveon)

- Smoke clears to reveal the that while the surroundings may have taken damage, the Sylveon is sitting there perfectly unharmed -

Random Sylveon: :3

Random Hydreigon: (stares blankly)

Also, there's a rumor that Steel has lost its resistance to Dark and Ghost? Interesting if true, I guess...

And more info about customizing the PC, yay!

And Team Flare, or the Orange Guys as I like to call them, is looking to create a beautiful world? Let me guess, the money they are after is going to be used in some way to make a device that will allow them to do something involving Xerneas or Yveltal? Or maybe they'll just go around and give random trainer's Pokémon makeovers and then ask the trainer to pay for it despite not having asked for it? :P

Team Flare member: (runs up, puts a long blonde wig on a trainer's Garchomp) "There, much better! That'll be 50 pokedollars!"

Garchomp: <...?>

But what about Tropius and Meganium? :P

Also, Spiritomb and Sableye no longer has no weak...but Eelektross still does. :P

Dammit, Garchomp. Stop this evolving nonsense, you're already perfect.

New evos...Froakie's is pretty much the coolest thing ever. Chespin and Fennekin are a little awkward, but hopefully will grow out of it.

Mewtwo's second Mega Form looks very buff.

The new mons seem cool. It's nice to have a customizable poodle, and the kitties look huggable. The dinosaurs, meanwhile, are adorable and there is a high chance I will acquire the sauropod, both in-game and in-RP.

Type-chart stuff...neat. Would be interesting if the Steel thing is true.

And yay for a beautiful world! No wonder their outfits are better.

Yeah, with the reveal of the new type chart, reality warping becomes more and more of an inevitability.

Froakie evolution eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Also I totally called Fairy being weak to Poison and Steel and resisting and being strong against Dark, that means that Xerneas has a natural advantage over Yyvetal as well =P

Random Dark Type Pokémon: <A-ha! After all these years, we have finally figured out how to hit the weaker, less armored parts of the Steel types!>

Random Ghost Type Pokémon: <It... took you guys this many years to figure that one out?>

Random Dark Type Pokémon: <...>

Random Ghost Type Pokémon: <...> (looks around as if to make sure no one else is around) <... Would you mind sharing that info with us?>
