These were revealed a couple days ago, but I figured I'd at least start a thread for them. Pretty sweet, don't you think? I like the large "X" and "Y" in the backgrounds.

They seem quite different then all the previous ones to me, a different feel or something o.O I'm going to need to get myself a 3DS soon.

The box arts are one of my favorites, but Pokemon White 2 was pretty good as well.

I think X is better, though both of them are pretty neat, I just like how it is light colored with the X and nature behind it. I think the Y's background is interesting in of style, but the sky background is a little bland. I am being drawn towards buying X from this.

I love how you can see the artwork in the background behind Yveltal and Xerneas. On the box of Pokemon X is the forest we saw Xerneas depicted in on the first trailer. And of course, behind Yveltal is the glorious open cloudy sky where Yveltal was also depicted in on the first announcement teaser trailer. The colors are not opposites of the Pokemon either, similar to BW2, the lighter colored Pokemon for X version has a light colored box while Yveltal has a darker box. I reallly like this a lot. Makes me happy that Yveltal's box is also dark, since that's the version I'm getting~ But these are pretty sleek designs for just the cover art of a box.

They've dropped the "version" text! :O
Also, I hope these are holographic, because that would look really cool with that art.

I like how they put more detail in the background again especially when you compare this.

Whoa guys, catch me when I fall. I'm in love with the box art. And I love Yveltal more.

I'm starting to wonder if the covers will continue the once-used tradition of shiny-looking covers, that was seemingly absent in Black and White 1. You know, where if you shine it up in light, sometimes it has a sleek shine to it or a glittery feel?

I could see it being used either on the spaces outside the letters or the silhouettes inside.

(Don't press me on whether or not they were in Black and White 2.)

They aren't.

I wonder... I think I might get a boxed copy (if that's not the only option). A nice box... but I wonder whether it'll get shown at all.

I want both games! xD I'll be getting X first then Y soon after.

Out of all the main Pokemon games, X&Y has the best looking box art, imo. :3

I really like this gen's box art. Much better than Black and White, and really eye-catching.
