I can't believe we've managed to complain so much that they actually gave us mega evolution back
Only few fan bases have that skill
@@loukarodrigues I don't care if you sleep in one game. It's more than one game that we have before
@@technokingshadow6323 Fair enough
@@loukarodrigues They are not bringing back megas for just one game, it's way too costly, it's hard to balance, hard to design, the gimmick is probably going to stay for gen 10 too and possible the B/W remakes.
@@ConfusedDesigner2171 Lets Hope so.
Pokemon X and Y: "Did you die?" Pokemon Z: "Sadly yes." Pokemon Z-A: "BUT I LIVED!!!"
Not every day you see an Ice Age 3 reference. Respect.
@@fictionfan0 really? I see it all the time!
@@JaydenMatthews-gy2fqI dont 😢, still great to see people do them 😂
@@therealbananaman7844same. I love the ice age movies, especially the parts with sid screaming lmao
I’m crying out of pure joy. I fucking love Kalos and I can’t believe they actually did this. Sorry Unova fans, it’s Kalos’ time to shine!
As a Unova fan, I'll say that Kalos needed a legends game more than Unova.
As someone who was hoping for Unova, Kalos definitely deserves it more.
Maybe they will do a unova game too considering Z-A will release next year
I was hoping for unova but I’m actually more happy about Kalos. I’m really hoping this is the first game on the next switch and the whole next crop of games uses megas.
ICANT BELIV THAT
John: We're so getting gen 2 games! Narrator: We are not
I read that in the Stanley Parable Narrator voice
I’ve never been so hyped for a game NOT to come out the year it’s announced. PLEASE give this all the time it needs.
And plus it is from game freak and not ilca so we do not need to worry about another bdsp game
@@jimmiefitzgerald4961it’s game freak. we still need to worry
LET IT COOK PLEASE LET THIS COOK! PPL BEEN WAITING 12 YEARS QE CAN WAIT A FEW MORE
And if it started to be developed shortly after legends arceus it would be ~4 years of development
@@keroppib4ptista I have a bad feeling, though… it looks like they aren’t confident enough to show us any gameplay even after the theoretical two years, which seems like a bad sign….
I teared up when I saw the trailer for Pokemon Legends Z. Pokemon X and Y are two of my favorite Pokemon games. And that fact that Mega Evolution is coming back...God give me strength to wait until next year. Kalos is finally getting the attention it deserves.
It's Z-A
you commented the same thing on Austin's vid lol
@@HuskySansVergognedoes it even matter? The fact we had to wait for so long for kalos to be given some respect is bad enough. xy is one of the franchises worst main games
i also teared up. gen 6 was my first main series Pokémon game, and i couldnt be any happier that pokemon Z(-A), is finally happening. im so excited, im glad theyre giving it a year
Same here man so excited 🎉
That Question mark Unown was me. I have spouted the word "HUH!?" out loud more times in the last ten minutes than I had in all of 2023 LOL
ITS BEEN 3000 YEARS
You beat me to it ! 😂
God does this meme fit this exact situation so perfectly!
btw the last message said "See you" but it was all scrambled.
What’s the first one
@@bloojay133_GVOpokemon presents
@@bloojay133_GVO It's "Pokemon Presents" scrambled.
@@anon-a-moss8960 ohghhhh thx
yeah. i wonder why they did that. is it just a small, insignificant thing? or a hint towards Z-A?
Eternal floette could be a paradox mon
THATS RIGHT I didn't even think of eternal floette! Does that mean we'll finally get it as a legal Pokémon in the game?
Eternal Flower for the paradox name?
@@mohammadmurieInfinite Bloom?
@@toxsun That is also good
Will new Paradox mon even keep going to be introduced? Cuz new Ultra Beasts were discontinued right after USUM.
I saw the dude drinking milk and getting a pack and thought "Pokemon DRINK???"
gotta admit, me too. Especially cuz I was joking about GO, Sleep, and Smile conquering the daily activities market
My friend said Pokemon Milk lol
@@kor6514Milk Man Mike is canon confirmed
Someone in the presents chat said "Pokémon EAT"
It looks like both Legends games take place around the same time, Mid-1800's ish. Legends Arceus was the Meiji period of Japan when they started industrializing and going from small villages to more industrial centers. France during that time was growing a bit more slowly because the land wasn't very iron-rich, but by the end of the century had cities and architecture that look a lot like those architectural sketches. I've also heard some people theorizing that the game might be set in the past and future/present. The title "Z to A" and the going from an older art style (and aspect ratio) to a modern one points in that direction
Haussmann's renovation of Paris (which established the base of modern urbanism and ducks over the environment and old Paris) and 1889 Paris Exposition (which for it was built the Eiffel tower alongside many things to decorate the city) was all held during the latter half of 1800s. Considering the redevelopment theme of it all (from Old Paris to New Paris) and the start of heavy industrialization (environmental damage coughs guardian of nature coughs), it fits a legends game so perfectly xD.
If the main objective is we help to develop the new city, which changes over time the more you progress (a bit like they gave us a tasted of in PLA) I think that would be absolutely sick
So megas is coming back? There better be mega flygon. Cmon Pokémon don’t let us down.
Yep I believe so. Probably no new ones though but how would I know
If they do new megas. I believe that Mega Flygon would be the first to be shown off to induce hype.
Wdym no new ones lmao it's pokemon they always do something new for remake or legends game, just watch legend arceus@hannahmichaelson2317
And since it's legends they probably will different trio of starters.. and if Kalos.. new Mega starters? I randomly hope Chikorita gets something just so it isn't memed on as much
@@BaconNuke They could also be finally giving megas to the gen 6 starters.
John's excitement for Pokémon Sleep was so hype 😅😂😅😂
I have a theory of the fact that they didn't just name it "Pokémon Legends Z", they specifically named it "Pokémon Legends Z-A". As we all know the "Z" is for Zygarde in which everyone was waiting a game for (at least when X and Y first came out), but the "A" in the name may hint at a new legend with the name starting with A starring alongside Zygarde. Pokémon cooked with these games and the feast is scheduled for 2025. I say for all of us that we can't wait to play.
It's az
A reference to the king of kalos
And the best part is not a single "leaker" predicted Pokémon legends Z-A and as a result everyone was genuinely surprised
RIP to everyone claiming the leaks were saying Black and White remakes and Pokémon Legends Johto LMFAO
Yes that just proves that you should never believe anything that people say until the video game company makes announcements.
@@RachelXKnight666 I bet that the leakers are gonna get some hate
Pokémon z-a…. **A-Z…**
I love it when leaks are wrong 😆
Thank god it’s Legends Z-A I love Kalos and Mega Evolution and get here was so much lore we missed out on in X and Y with the train station, the ghost girl, the history with the war, and Eternal Flower Floette
Hope we see ghost girl origin
I also want to know more about Emma from the Looker missions/her distant ancestors (past or future)
@@michaelbeardi6178 also a good point. I don’t know much about looker but I think he has the most important role in X and Y’s Epilogue
I remember waiting for this day since they announced x and y in second grade. Now they finally gave us z and im a high school senior. It’s been 10 years and feels like 3000. 😢
Its been 3000 years..
I screamed and punched the air for joy once I saw Pokemon Legends Z, Gen 6 was the gen I got to play and have on my own as a Christmas gift from my family for the 3Ds, and I fell in love with the world of Pokemon and I'm so happy that Mega Evolution is COMING BACK BABY!~
"Wait, what? Is this Pokemon...?" Yes John, what an astute observation 11:40
I was expecting a legends game but i thought it would be johto or unova. I can honestly say I did not see this coming.
for pokemon Z-A; if you look closely at the A design, it show a little hint of the new legendary may look like. and for when they show us the place in CGI as Pikachu was running and the place is only Lumiose City ground with battle that can be seen on the open area might mean players online can see and playing with eachother throughout the world. That mean they will have a lot more player you can play with. Also, when you look closely of the peoples in the game are mostly trainer that are player might interpret as you are going to play with more the 4 player as I believe that 60% of the population in this game might be players. This are what I'm getting from the trailer.
New Legends game means we can expect Kalos regional variant Pokemon soon!
Pokemon Z!! And it’s in 2025 instead of this year! And MEGAS are back!!!
Maybe because there are rumors that the Nintendo Switch 2 will be released in 2025, so maybe Gamefreak will also hold off on releasing the game this year.
2025 **bwomp** 🥺
@@b.d.s8662 Well, whatever the case, it gives them more time to actualy polish the game, instead of giving us rushed mess (*cough*scarlet-violet*cough*), so I am happy with it.
as someone who loves x7y and consumed the xyz anime a lot when i was younger this makes me happy and as ive sorta been going in and out of pokemon(need to complete gen 4 and 5) this could possibly bring me back if it doesnt end up like S&V
SAMEEE!! It makes me so happy we now got a Kalos-based game!!
WE MEGA EVOLVING WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
The architecture of the first buildings gave me Unova and Castelia City vibes, like a game set in the past, before the modern skyscrapers....in retrospect, this design could only be Castelia or Lumious, not of the other cities in any game would fit, Galar's cities are designed too old, medieval cities in modern times. It is interesting that it is the future or post X and Y, maybe the same number of years in our world and timeline as in game time.
Like 10 minutes before the start of the Pokemon presents I said in a chat something about them doing a Legends game set in the future on a whim. I didn't think I would be right.
Wait, what tells you it’s in the future? Is it the “redevelopment” plan?
i think this is in the past, the blue acting as a blueprint implying we play the game before the city was built
Yeah my hunch is that its based on the Paris redevelopment in the late 1800s
Exactly. The theory is it's everyone rebuilding after the Great war and AZ's weapon fiasco
this might cover the story of the former king of Kalos, AZ
SO this is where Raikuo was during the shiny hunt event
The way absolutly NO-ONE predicted there being a Pokemon Z coming today. It just makes all the reactions even better. The confusion when they see the city is so real. I MEAN THEY SKIPPED STRAIGHT PAST UNOVA IT'S SO FUNNY
The title reveal was so ironic that I had to laugh, well let's see how it will look.
Me to mega evolution: “glad to see you back old friend.”
This entire presents feels like they forgot some announcement
Fr jumped straight from online TGC to legends Z
Okay, my thoughts reading into this a bit: Soeyue, which is what the unknown spelled, could be an old name for something in Kalos, or perhaps the region itself, kinda like how Hisui was the old name for Sinnoh. Based on the whole "urban redevelopment plan", this seems likely to take place at a transitional period between the old ways we saw in Hisui and modern Pokémon, at a time when the old town (possibly this Soeyue) is getting rebuilt into Lumios. Other potential links that could be inferred is that the name Z-A could also point to the story linking with the immortal Az- which is a distinct possibility given the locale. All in all, a lot to unpack here XD
I thought the unown just scrambled “See you” like they did Pokemon Presents 😂
It's just "See you" scrambled, but I love the enthusiasm
Not as much to unpack as the new virtual TCG, apparently 😂
Interesting that they didnt show the Switch logo for Legends..
There is... But they said it's out to Nintendo Switch "systems"
They did
@@nth9983 towards the end.. but not at the beginning
@@majoraswrath9590 because they wanted it to be a full surprise, check the official teaser out of Pokémon Presents on the Pokémon channel and it starts with the switch logo
Rumors are going around it could be a launch title for the supposed switch 2. After S&V this could be the play they need to gain back some faith from the community.
What Michael's reaction and then yours John. Lol... you both are priceless on your reactions!
AZ with floette from kalos?!?!?
Yo this trailer actually blowed my mind
Yo, ending that with Penny's theme music is based tho.
My theory here is that we will actually get gen 2 games soon, but for now, we have the announcement of pokemon legends Z-A
I’m soooooo excited for legends z and the return of megas also get to see what new megas they are adding
I just want to see Mega Flyon come this time
Random theory: Assuming this is just the past like Legends Arceus (like has been theorized) and is from when Lumiose was made into the modern city it was in X/Y, that would place the game at around Napoleon-III era. It is feasibly possible that we meet pokemon napoleon iii in z-a
What if the A stands for alola because of how Alola and kalos are connected through zygarde
It’s probably either because of AZ or because Z-A indicates “End to the Beginning”, and how the Talonflame in the ZA trailer devolves into a Fletchling by the end
It's Zygarde and... Arceus?
@michaelolympus5994 I think it's going to be separate from arceus
Love the pure happiness John! So excited for Pokemon Legends Z!!
If there are any new megas it will be; 1. The legendary Pokemon 2. The starter trio 3. This games version of nobles 4. The original Kalos Starters
You know what? I can wait 2 years if we get an amazing product out of it.
best reaction i've seen of all! im so excited for this as well!
THE LORD HAS HEARD OUR CRY!
I love watching everyones reactions in these. Every time im so happy because 1: new game. 2: others are happy.
The first Pokemon show I *finished* was kalos, so excited for this game!
That show was amazing . 10/10 in my opinion . We are so back bro
I honestly love how John and Mikey had nearly the same reactions😂 they both noticed the clear Johto signs, and were both very surprised and excited when it was pokemon legends A-Z.
This reaction is so pure it filled my heart with so much happiness especially as this was my reaction. Ive never played X/Y but for whatever reason it is my favourite video to watch people do playthroughs/challenges in, and I have always loved its general vibe and attention to detail and stunning city design. I feel like this will really excel as a legends game, and will be so interesting to see especially as PLA was less city focused/more open world-y, so it'll be fresh & new to see how they incorporate how Kalos was built up!!
Lumiose City only as of now according to the website. Kind of took the joy out of the reveal a bit
This is the Best case possible for Pokemon News. Megas coming back and possibly going back in time to See AZ would be Insane.
I been calling it since the pearl and diamond remakes that kalos would get some love after since it makes the most logical sense since its the only gen they havent remaded or gave a another game to
I hope we can transfer our pokemon from all our pokemon games to this new game cause I want to mega evolve ma shiny Lucario
You'll be able to just not as soon as the game drops
Megas back...I love it. Just imagine though pokemon like Dragonite and Flygon don't get Megas again and the Kanto starters do....what am I talking about, there absolutely be a Mega Charizard Z, maybe even a Charizard A
Let’s look for some Dragoniteite lol
The Pokemon Company Mixed legends requests and Pokemon Z requests and Made Pokemon Legends Z (Pokemon Legends X Pokemon Z)
I love that I got to see what my face looked like the moment the mega evolution symbol came on screen
They finna did it after 10+ years we are so back baby 😭🙏
Unova will always be my fav because that’s where I started and my hope was Pokémon black or white 3 or legends kryuem but if not than I wanted legends Z. Mega Evolution is back!
I love his happiness in the end
Pokemon legends arceus was based on the Meiji Restoration in Japan, set in the latter half of 1800s, specifically when Japan was colonizing Ezo and turning it to Hokkaido. My theory is that this will be Haussmann's renovation of Paris (established base for modern urbanism & destroy old city & nature) + 1889 Paris Exposition (originates building of the Eiffel tower & many other projects to beautify the city), both being in late 1800s as well and fits perfectly with "redevelopment" (from old Paris to New Paris). The blue BG + white lights may reference blueprints, invented in 1840s & used extensively for reconstruction of Paris. Plus, with the whole heavy industrialization going on, a certain protector of nature might wake up, it fits so well!!! But anyways, this just a theory.
11:26 can we please talk about this mysterious symbol and scribble which looks like text, this has to be some sort of Easter egg
Just came here to see his reaction to raikou lmfao
i feel either they're going to adopt a new release schedule or do another announcement this year for unova remakes and gen 10 who knows since all we know for sure is 1 game and we still have possible remakes for unova and for sure an eventually announcement for gen 10
I fell over in my chair when I saw this trailer so hyped
Kalos helped get me back into Pokémon. Going back? Perfection. Doing so in a Legends game? Perfection. Only question I have now is will it remain fully open world a la Paldea or go back to the Legends: Arceus style of open world within various sub regions
Can be a mixture of both
Pokemon legends za gave chill it soo much chill i watched the video and reaction 13 times man more hyped for Pokemon za than gta 6
I love u pm7 I’m so excited to see you play this
Pokemon X and Y was one of my first Pokemon games. I was literally listening to Kalos and PLA music while doing homework last night 🤯! It feels so good to return to this region I love a lot, along with mega evolving! Kalos was such a great pick, while Unova and Johto are great, Kalos is amazing with its potential with Pokemon Z and megas of course! So glad they aren't rushing it to Holiday 2024 and giving it time. Hopefully they cook and release it in Summer-Winter 2025 ❤!
As soon as I saw Lumiose Tower I knew it was gonna be something related to Kalos Lo and Behold A new Legends Game
It's been 3,000 years
GEN 6 WAS MY FIRST POKEMON GAME! GETTING THIS IS IS THE BEST THING EVER
The fact that the entiere game is in the city is incredible it's litteraly a GTA pokemon game i'm so HYPED
New legends , Pokemon Z , AZ backstory all together ? Man it's really my wildest dream
NO GODDAMN WAY!!!!!!!💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
Kalos is my first and favorite region. This is so exciting. :D
kalos needed a remake and here we are
Jack said that the Raikou was his shiny running away lol
Very excited to see the new Megas!
THIS NEEDS ONLINE
We're finally getting Megas back in the form of we're FINALLY GETTING POKEMON Z!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Albeit it's interesting that it's in the form of a Legends game; and interesting theories that are forming are possibly either taking place in the era of AZ's time when he was king/the warring Kalos period OR due to despite being a Legends game but we have Cities & with the wording of Redevelopment Plans & the art maybe Z-A might take place in the future!!!!!!!
Pokemon X was the first pokemon game I played where I actually knew how to play pokemon, so the fact that this generation is finally getting the recognition it deserves is incredible. Can’t wait to see how it all plays out!
I watched your reaction live but had to come back to watch again bc I think I blacked out from excitement earlier and couldn't even remember what you said
IM SO EXCITED!!!!
I can't believe they managed to make a New Legends Game, a Pokemon Z Game, and Bring back Megas, all at the same time. 3 of the biggest things we've been asking for, lol.
I hope we get alot of new mega's I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm very impatient though so we have to wait a year,the waiting is going to kill me XD
Unknown has always been related to time travel often seen with Celebi
I can’t believe anyone was actually expecting Unova remakes, there’s a pattern in recent times of a games remakes coming out in twice its gen Gen 2*2=Gen 4 (HGSS) Gen 3*2=Gen 6 (ORAS) Gen 4*2=Gen 8 (BDSP) Gen 5*2=Gen 10 (Unova remakes)
amazing reaction bro
My second favourite region and my favourite transformations (mega). This is awesome 🔥
Was hoping more for a Unova remake mainly bcz of my nostalgia for it and how a remake could do a lot of justice for it, but Kalos is the next best thing. XY era was one of the best and I remember hearing many ppl talk positively abt it, so a ton of ppl r probably happy abt this HHAAH
That's why it's called Pokemon Legends Z-A because its usually takes place before the original game comes up. The holographic presentation is just a blueprint for redeveloping the urbanize Lumiose City. The key words here we know it's before XY is the "A Vision of beautiful coexistence between people and Pokemon..." means that there are still conflict with the relationship if pokemon and humans. Modern eras are now getting along with pokemon but here it's to coexist. Also not a coincidence that they choose Kalos after Paldea because Paldea is a representation of Spain so it's near France which Kalos is based on. Not gonna be surprised if they mentioned Paldea and Galar (representation of UK) because they were in war before.
I screamed when i saw the trailer. XY was my first time playing a pokemon game as it dropped n my fav 3ds pokemon game. So hyped FINALLY Z
I’ve wanted Pokémon legends zygarde for so long, I’m so cool I predicted it when literally NOBODY ELSE DID
I hope they set it just after the war. The opening is the weapon going off, then the game is us rebuilding after the war
I hope that with the new Legends game, that it brings back all of the old megas, plus new ones. I hope it explores more of AZ's backstory/mega evolution/Zygarde. It also would be cool if their was a way we could re-play the original story of X/Y, as the switch can do so much for this gen. I also think they will announce a Let's go for gen 2, as well a new Gen 5 remake later this year.
Kalos was actually my serious introduction into Pokémon - back as a kid when I started watching the Anime, Kalos was where I began, besides a few Cartoon Network episodes of Unova. So seeing this… it’s amazing. I can’t wait to play. But for the love of Arkoos please don’t let this be a buggy, glitch filled mess. Make it like Legends Arceus: glorious and amazing.
