The next generation of Pokemon has been anounced with Pokemon X and Pokemon Y set to be released worldwide on October 13th, 2013. The clip covers the 3 new starters: Froakie, Chespin and Fennekin as well as many other features that will be new to the series, like fully 3-D overworld and battles.

What do you guys think of the next Gen of Pokemon? Personally I'm still settling into Black and White 2 so this comes as a bit of a shock to me.

EDIT: This just shows the new games, instead of having history on all the previous gens as well.
