Gaming Pokémon Strumfest

I've just started to go through and complete the Pokedex on X.

Is there anyway to make straight swaps for Pokemon needing a trade while holding an item like Kings Rock? From what I've seen of the GTS so far it's a bit sketchy...
 
You'd never played Pokemon before duffer? Too busy making top 50 lists?
 
Got an app that lets me play DS games on my phone. Downloaded Pokemon Black.

I really shouldn't be excited about starting a Pokemon game at my age.
 
Just received a level 100 Budew knowing only Protect over Wonder Trade. How is that even possible?

Serebii has the details here: http://www.serebii.net/index2.shtml

The next batch of CoroCoro information has been posted to Japanese forums and this batch showcases more information about the upcoming games. This reveals Mega Sceptile, Swampert and Diancie. Mega Sceptile is Grass/Dragon-type while the others maintain their type. Mega Diancie's ability is currently listed as ??? while Mega Sceptile has Lightning Rod and Mega Swampert has the ability Swift Swim.

Groudon & Kyogre's new "Mega Evolutions" are known as Primal/Prehistoric/Primeval Groudon & Primal/Prehistoric/Primeval Kyogre and are said to be a regression called Ancient Devolution. Steven Stone returns and also appears to have a Mega Charizard X and is after the secret for Mega Evolution

Both the Mach and Acro Bike make a return in this game and Team Aqua & Team Magma both return as well. Team Magma is lead once again by Maxie, and his Admins: Tabitha & Courtney. Team Aqua is lead by Archie and his admins Matt and Shelley, all of whom have been redesigned. Like the originals the team you face varies depending upon the game

The Mega Evolution activating item in this game is the Mega Bangle.
 
I'm confused, doesn't this adding new pokemons mean it's technically a new generation? Even if it's just megas.

Also as I have not played x and y do megas count towards pokedex

I think the 'new' pokemon are already coded into X & Y, there just isn't a way to get them at the moment.
 
This might be a stupid question, but can they not create a game where you go through all the regions (or at least the first 4)?

They probably could but I don't think they will because it means there's no (or at least fewer) reason for anyone to play the older games.

Hmm, I suppose that makes sense but does anyone buy the older games anymore? An overall game would be great (and value for money).

Yeah, I think so. Well, until it's remade and then they play that instead. HeartGold and SoulSilver go for shit loads now because they're in such high demand.
 
Snowyjoey is right, I don't think you'll get it new anywhere anymore, not from a shop anyway. I looked online a month or two for someone else and nowhere had it.
