Greater emphasis was placed on making Pokémon species more unique and in-tune with the culture andfaunaof Europe, namelyFrance.

All Pokémon were created by a team of roughly 20 artists, led byKen Sugimoriand Hironobu Yoshida. For the first time in the franchise, the generation's legendary Pokémon—specifically Xerneas and Yveltal—were not designed by Sugimori alone; he requested the help ofAtsuko Nishidato move their designs forward.[1]

The following list details the 72 Pokémon of Generation VI in order of theirNational Pokédexnumber. The first Pokémon,Chespin,is number 650 and the last,Volcanion,is number 721. Alternate forms that result in type changes andMega Evolutionsare included for convenience.

Design and development

[edit]

Pokémon are a species of fictional creatures created for thePokémonmedia franchise. Developed byGame Freakand published byNintendo,the Japanese franchise began in 1996 with the video gamesPokémon RedandGreenfor theGame Boy,which were later released in North America asPokémon RedandBluein 1998.[2]In these games and their sequels, the player assumes the role of a Trainer whose goal is to capture and use the creatures' special abilities to combat other Pokémon. Some Pokémon can transform into stronger species through a process calledevolutionvia various means, such as exposure to specific items.[3]Each Pokémon have one or two elemental types, which define its advantages and disadvantages when battling other Pokémon.[4]A major goal in each game is to complete thePokédex,a comprehensive Pokémon encyclopedia, by capturing, evolving, and trading with other Trainers to obtain individuals from all Pokémon species.[3]

Development ofPokémon XandYbegan in 2010 and the games were released worldwide on October 12, 2013.[5]DirectorJunichi Masudarevealed the three main themes ofPokémon XandYto be beauty, bonds and evolution.[6]Beauty was the core focus and Masuda felt France to be a prime example of such; he brought a team to the country for study in 2011.[7]With the games taking place in a region based onFrance(calledKalos), design inspiration stemmed more from European culture[1](e.g. the legendary trio ofXerneas,YveltalandZygardehave their roots inNorse mythology).[8]More focus than usual was placed on giving new Pokémon unique elements for this generation.[5]

A major design change for the franchise was the shift fromtwo-dimensionalsprites tothree-dimensionalpolygons. This required a larger development team than past games, with more than 500 people involved with the games' development, inclusive oflocalizationteams.[9]Emphasis was placed on retaining the iconic style of Pokémon art directorKen Sugimoriwho has been designing Pokémon and creating the franchise's official artwork sinceRedandGreenin 1996.[10][11]A new type was also added into the game for the first time sinceGoldandSilverin 1999: Fairy type. This type was introduced to balance out the Dragon, Fighting, Poison, and Steel types. Dragon was previously only weak against itself and Ice, and only resisted against Steel. Fighting previously was super-effective against five different types (Normal, Ice, Rock, Dark and Steel) and only weak against Flying and Psychic types. Poison was previously only super-effective against Grass, resisted against itself, Rock, Ground and Ghost types and ineffective against Steel. Steel previously was only super-effective against Ice and Rock types and resisted against itself, Fire, Water and Electric types. Aside from this, Ghost and Dark are now neutral against Steel, improving the offensive usefulness of both types. Multiple Pokémon from previous generations, such asJigglypuff,GardevoirandMarill,were retroactively assigned the new type while 13 new Pokémon, most notablySylveon,donned the type.[12]A new mechanic called Mega Evolution—a temporary form change akin to normalevolution—was also added for more dynamic battles and stemmed from the concepts of bonds and evolution.[5][6]Mega Evolutions "refined designs to a new extreme" according to Yoshida and required considerable effort.[5]They were made temporary to retain balance in battles and only made possible when a Pokémon is holding their respective Mega Stone to prevent players from giving them a different advantageous hold item.[5]The only Pokémon from Generation VI capable of Mega Evolution isDiancie.A variant of Mega Evolution called "Primal Reversion" was introduced inOmega RubyandAlpha Sapphire;this mechanic is exclusive to the legendary PokémonGroudonandKyogre.[13]

The titlesXandY,representing thex-axis and y-axis—also reflecting different forms of thinking[14]—were chosen early in development.[9]The simplicity of the names was also related to the simultaneous worldwide release of the games.[14]Designers additionally sought to make the Pokémon names the same in every country whenever possible. Masuda expressed that this effort proved exceptionally difficult as the names have to feel fitting to their physical appearance and not infringe upon any rights.[15]At the request of Masuda,[14]the shapes "X" and "Y" were used as the framework for the boxart legendary Pokémon: Xerneas and Yveltal.[9]Normally, Sugimori designs the legendary Pokémon by himself; however, he required assistance from designer Atsuko Nishida to create Xerneas and Yveltal.[1]Finalization of their designs took about 18 months, 3 times longer than normal.[16]Manga artist Hitoshi Ariga was requested to assist in creating Pokémon forXandY;Ariga ultimately designed ten species for the games.[17]It is speculated by fans that the designs for theChespin,FennekinandFroakieevolutionary lines stem from typicalrole-playing game character classes,such as those inFinal Fantasy.Chespin represents the knight, paladin and fighter classes; Fennekin represents the witch, mage and magician classes; and Froakie represents the ninja, thief and rogue classes.[18]
