 The English names of the four Pokémon and the new NPCs [[Four new Pokémon revealed in July CoroCoro|shown in CoroCoro]] have been revealed.
-In English, Shishiko is called {{p|Litleo}}, and Furabebe is known as {{p|Flabébé}}.
-While it was known that Spewpa was the English name of either Kofūrai or Kofukimushi due to the Spanish and Italian versions of Pokémon.com, it has been revealed that Kofūrai is known as {{p|Spewpa}} in English, while Kofukimushi is known as {{p|Scatterbug}}.
+In English, Shishiko is called {{p|Litleo}}. Litleo has a red mane that burns hotter when battling strong opponents. It can learn the new {{type|Normal}} move Noble Roar (known as War Cry in Japanese), which lowers the target's Attack.
-Sana's English name is {{bp|Shauna}}, Tieruno's is {{bp|Tierno}}, and Toroba's is {{bp|Trevor}}. The English names of the opposite-gender player character are Serena (female) and Calem (male). Pansy is known as {{bp|Alexa}} in English. {{bp|Viola}}'s name stays the same in English.
+In English, Furabebe is known as {{p|Flabébé}}. When a Flabébé is born, it chooses a flower which it lives on and takes care of for the rest of its life. Wild Flabébé will hold different colors of flower. Flabébé can draw power from its flower to use in battle.
-In English Asame Town is known as {{bp|Vaniville Town}}, while Hakudan City is known as {{bp|Santalune City}}.
+While it was known that Spewpa was the English name of either Kofūrai or Kofukimushi due to the Spanish and Italian versions of Pokémon.com, it has been revealed that Kofūrai is known as {{p|Spewpa}} in English, while Kofukimushi is known as {{p|Scatterbug}}. Scatterbug can learn {{m|String Shot}}, while Spewpa can learn {{m|Protect}}. Spewpa can protect itself from weak attacks with its thick fur.
+The player's hometown, Asame Town, is known as {{bp|Vaniville Town}} in English. From here, the player and their four friends set off on their journey.
+Sana is known as {{bp|Shauna}} in English. She is friendly, outgoing and energetic, and is looking to find her own dream. She is very interested in everything the player finds on his or her journey.
+Tieruno is known as {{bp|Tierno}} in English. He is strong and kind, but easily distracted during battle because he tries to incorporate dance moves. He is a dancer who is light on his feet, and wants to create a dance team with his Pokémon.
+Toroba is known as {{bp|Trevor}} in English. He is a good and curious student, but he is very competitive and wants to be the first of the group to complete the {{bp|Pokédex}}.
+Serena or Calem (the opposite gendered player character) lives next door to the player in Vaniville Town. He or she sets off on a journey to become a powerful Pokémon Trainer.
+Hakudan City is known as {{bp|Santalune City}} in English, and is known for its large fountain and park benches. It contains the first Gym, led by {{bp|Viola}} (whose name is the same as in Japanese). The Santalune City Gym's interior is made from spiderweb-like threads over a dark pit; they serve as the Gym's puzzle. Viola is a professional photographer, and will give the player advice when they battle.
+Pansy is known as {{bp|Alexa}} in English, and is Viola's older sister. She works as a journalist for a publishing house in {{bp|Lumiose City}}.

 *Tierno is the dancer of the group and wants more than anything to create a dance team with his Pokémon. Strong, kind, and light on his feet, Tierno gets easily distracted by watching opposing Pokémon during battles because he’s too busy trying to incorporate Pokémon moves into his dances.
 *Trevor bursts with curiosity about the world around him. He’s an excellent student, and very competitive, wanting to be the first of the group to complete his Pokédex.
 *Serena or Calem lives next door to you in Vaniville Town. This character has a passion to become a powerful Pokémon Trainer and sets out on the journey to accomplish that dream.

 *Debuting as a Fairy-type Pokémon along with Sylveon, Flabébé lives atop a flower that it chooses soon after it’s born and will care for its entire life. Players may see different Flabébé holding flowers of different colors when encountering them in the wild. Flabébé is able to draw forth hidden powers that lie within its flower and use those powers in moves while battling. Flabébé knows Fairy Wind, a Fairy-type move debuting inPokémon X and Pokémon Y that summons a wind that blasts an opponent as it attacks. Like all Fairy-type moves, it’s super effective against Dragon-type Pokémon.
-*As Pokémon evolve, they take on new appearances and learn new moves. Pokémon X and Pokémon Y will introduce the Bug-type PokémonScatterbug. Scatterbug knows String Shot, a Bug-type move that can lower the Speed stat of opposing Pokémon. Scatterbug evolves into Spewpa, another new Bug-type Pokémon that can withstand half-hearted attacks due to its stiff, fur-covered body. Use the Normal-type move Protect at a beginning of a turn to protect Spewpa from moves used against it on that turn. The final evolved form of Scatterbug, which was revealed earlier this week, is the new Bug- and Flying-type Pokémon Vivillon. It’s said there’s a secret behind the colorful decorative pattern on Vivillon’s wings, which it uses to scatter its scales or create a strong wind to attack. Vivillon can learn Struggle Bug, a Bug-type move that lowers the Special Attack of any opposing Pokémon it hits, so the move not only causes damage but also reduces the damage inflicted on Vivillon from certain moves during battle.|The Pokémon Company International}}
