On an unrelated note, I hope you guys have been keeping up with the news for Pokemon X and Y! I know I have, I’m so excited for this game, can’t wait until October~ They just recently released some details about the new region Karos as well as four new Pokemon! My favourite is definitely Pancham, it’s adorable, haha.

interesting 4th job didnt exist initially?
I remember in GMS Leafre came in the same update as 4th job.
3rd job didn’t exist intially too.
When the game 1st came out only maple island and vic island existed with just KPQ
3rd job didnt exist initially
also what system is pokemon x and y for?
3ds
That’s hot.
I WANNA RIDE GOGOAT. Q-Q
Interesting… They never mentioned Mikhail. Like it has never existed.
What is mikhail? Is that the one help soul master to up job?
mikhail is basically mihile as a child before serving empress so he doesnt fit in there as he was released later
9th

I wonder what song in this video! It’s so nice! Anyone know?

PARABOLA CHARGEEE
i wonder if there will be Pokemon Z version after X and Y
I’d love to know the song that plays at 0:10!
But, my goodness.. it’s amazing to see how much the game has actually progressed throughout the years.. being something i’ve played since I was little, i’m glad to see that it’s grown very well! ^ ^
My favorite is Helioptile
EMS got cygnus before pirates lol!
