Pokemon X and Y are due out later this year, and are being heralded as a sort of renaissance for the series. The last few iterations into the Pokemon franchise have come off as somewhat uninspired or lackadaisical, and Game Freak is out to change that. X and Y will feature completely revamped battle systems and a better travel design, so making your way around the world isn't such a droll affair. It's a good thing too, as with competition like Sony's Playstation Vita slowly picking up steam, Nintendo needs all the help they can get.
Users on Reddit have been feeling the excitement, and have concocted yet another prediction concerning X and Y. This rumor states that Orotto, a Pokemon revealed in the latest Mewtwo's Awakening trailer, may be an evolution of Sableye. Strangely enough, Sableye is a Pokemon that fans have wanted to see an evolution to for a long time, noting that it has such potential but falls short in the late-game. With Game Freak trying to switch things up so much already, it goes without saying that maybe they are trying to listen to the fans as well.
The reasoning for this hypothesis can be seen in the below image:
This is an interesting theory, and should prove to bring even more anticipation to the veritable hype train that is heading towards the two games' October 12 release date. Are you going to be picking one – or both – of the games up?
