Product Information
In Pokemon Y, Nintendo's successful creature breeding and battling franchise returns with a species of starter Pokemon, new mega evolution, improved connectivity and for the first time in the series, full 3D graphics. As always, players take on the role of a young battle trainer who goes on quests to catch and train Pokemon, then engage in turn-based battles with other trainers to upgrade and evolve their Pokemon. The new adventure is set in the France-like Kalos region, with the ultimate goal of obtaining the eight Kalos Gym Badges and defeating the Elite Four. Gamers begin by choosing from three starters Pokemon, but they can rapidly access dozens more through trainer battles, random wilderness encounters, or trades with friends. Pokemon Y and Pokemon X both offer a unique Legendary Pokemon, while the mega evolution feature lets high-level Pokemon briefly evolve into the extremely powerful Mega form. Players can help build up their Pokemon's stats through practice battles in the new Super Training mode, and the new Pokemon-amie feature lets them increase their bond with the Pokemon by using the stylus and touch screen to pet, scratch and play with the creatures. In addition to the classic turn-based battles, Pokemon Y offers new Horde Battles, which pit one Pokemonagainst multiples foes, and new Sky Battles, in which only flying Pokemon can participate. Multiplayer content remains a key part of the franchise, with the new Player Search System (PSS) letting gamers connect to the Internet and find friends all around the world. The PSS allows for friendly battles, ranked battles, message sharing and a variety of different trades, including the new Wonder Trade feature, which instantly executes blind trades between two random players.Product Identifiers
