Already preordered X, just keep getting better and better.

Its not really a recolor, they added quite a bit to him, however I dont liket he physical spotlight in the stat change, wouldve made more sense to make meg charizard more of a dps/tank mega evo.

In terms of the new starters, I'm going with fennekin still because of its fire/psychic combo, making it a good pokemon for stuff such as ghost, fighting, etc.
