    Im muslim and I wouldnt take offence if an one character had a turban on. But if there were a whole city with brown skinned turban people then that would be a bit offensive. They should really diverse pokemon more though they started to add African-american characters so they should have Middle Eastern, Indian , Hispanic and any other race they have ignored.

    Pokemon probably won't make turbans mainstream: it's a religious hat thingy, and references to religion in the game are non existant or mild...

    I think they had churches though cant remember. Do you think a hypothetical Arab character will have a Muslim name or a western name?

    Maybe something that is Muslim but not completely unheard of in the Western world such as Omar or Jamal.

    Muslims don't necessarily wear turbans, not even Middle Easterns in general, that's only a tradition/costume of certain countries.

    For example, here in the Gulf (UAE, Kuwait, etc.) we wear things like this http://www.expatwoman.com/uploads/im...t/clothing.jpg

    I'd actually love to see some of that in the pokemon games, maybe not now, but hopefully in the future ^^

    Actually no one in Pokémon World worship Arceus. It isn't a god per se, it has "god-like" powers, but still is nothing but a Pokémon.
    Just saying.

    Lol, you are using Disney characters in a comparison? Seriously? xD

    There are a lot of awesome female villains, it just depends of who writes them.

    It is you, it is you, it is all for you.

    Hunter J was a pretty cool villain. Of course I wouldn't want to see something like her again, but it shows that female villains can be really, really cool.


    And so a new journey begins...

    even if we don't understand each other, that's not a reason to reject each other. There are two sides to any argument. Is there one point of view that has all the answers? Give it some thought.

    The Evil team is Team Sigma who plans to use the Legendary Pokémon Yveltal(In Pokémon X) or Xerneas(Pokémon Y) to take over the Danra region.By using their Hi-tech gadgets and many scientists,they plan to duplicate their target pokemon to create an invincible army.The only way to save the region,free the legendary pokemon and destroy the duplicates is to capture the mascot(Xerneas is caught in forest area-that's what the girl wants to take a picture of.While Yveltal is caught on top of the Eiffel Tower).
    The Steel buildings in the trailer is the lab in which is used to duplicate the Legendary Pokémon.

    I really hope that isn't the case because that is really, really cliched. The whole "take over the world" thing is getting old.

    How else are they going to do evil shenanigans related to DNA?

    Not exactly, no. In fact, the only thing that's stated in-game about their function is that they are capable of facilitating a fusion between Kyurem and Reshiram/Zekrom. Nothing involving DNA was ever mentioned.

    Corrupt scientist who is not taken seriously decides to experiment in cloning. However, as the need to have his studies taken seriously, he ends up doing unethical experiments.

    A brother and sister have an intense rivalry. One of them catches legendary Pokemon (X/Y depending on version). The sibling becomes jealous of their success and attempts to catch the other legendary themselves.

    The Pokemon themselves are fighting one another, and the region is beginning to take sides as well, and a war breaks out.

    A corrupt corporation begins construction on sacred grounds and ends up waking up the legendary, which threatens to destroy the world.





    There are many, many ways to go about the story, without the obscure goal of "taking over the world".

    Good Point,I actually think that a few approaches may have a chance of being the actual goal although only one or two are related to DNA

    I also think that this sibling rivalry has already been cleared remember the Twin Heroes

    Not really. The Twin Heroes helped each other to found the region but eventually began to disagree about whether truth or ideals were more important and went to war against each other; however, the war was a stalemate, so the brother's called for a truce which held up until their sons reignited the war, leading Reshiram and Zekrom to devastate the region with their powers. It wasn't so much a sibling rivalry as it was a philosophical disagreement.

    In the end, the two brother couldn't win cannot win over one another with two halves of the same coin. It was a futile battle from the start.

    I think there shouldn't be just one team, nor two teams like in RSE. Maybe four teams: Adenine, Guanine, Thymine, and Cytosine. In Pokémon X, Adenine and Thymine have different goals. The Adenine Association want to take over the world, while the Thymine Corps want to preserve peace. In Pokémon Y, the Cytosine Force preserve the peace and the Guanine Gauntlet strive to take over the world.
    In Z, the Adenine Association and Guanine Gauntlet are gone, but they combine to make the Uracil Federation.

    Total speculation, unlike most of my posts with reasons and explanations.

    Ahh, it seems interesting, but four teams is quite a lot. But, once I think about the battles and all that marvelous EXP, how can I say no?
