[ti]Red ribbon[/ti]How many Pokemon in Generation VI?

So, a couple of days ago, Generation VI was announced. We don't yet know how many new Pokemon will be introduced - so have a guess :P . Prizes are as follows:

50 posts for guessing correctly;
30 posts if your guess is within 5 of the correct answer;
15 posts if your guess is not within 5, but within 10, of the correct answer;
10 posts if your guess is not within 10, but within 15, of the correct answer;
5 posts if your guess is not within 15, but within 30, of the correct answer.
A :red-ribbon: Red Ribbon for being the first person to guess correctly.

The closing date is Thursday, 17th January 2013 at 11:59pm GMT - or whenever an official announcement is made of how many there will be if this happens sooner. Obviously, I won't be able to judge this until such an announcement is made :P .

Additional rules:
  • Only one guess per person.
  • Each guess must be a positive integer. Any smart alecs saying things like -5, 164½ or π will have their guesses discounted.
  • Copying another person's guess is allowed, but discouraged.

And, finally, for reference, here's how many were in previous generations:

Generation I: 151
Generation II: 100
Generation III: 135
Generation IV: 107
Generation V: 156


Good luck!

I'm afraid it did close - nearly three months ago.

Well, since this is going on for so long, and there's still no end in sight....

I'm re-opening this for guesses for another week. Everyone has until Sunday, 26th May at 11:59pm GMT in which to enter a new guess (or change their existing one).

Also, I'm going to count Pokemon73's guess of 124, unless he wants to change it.

105

Of course I'd love to see more Pokemon; however, I'll stick with this amount for now if guesses are still accepted. :P

Ah perfect, thanks. XD

Can't wait to see when they do reveal the amount of Pokemon this gen. X/Y news are coming so slowly though...

Sadly so.

They showed a juicy amount of information last week. Let's hope for more soon. XD

Just to clarify, new forms of existing Pokémon don't count as new Pokémon.

Pokémon X and Y were released several days ago, and they have a total of 69 new Pokémon. Ranking for this contest is as follows:

1st: Kinopio (105)
2nd: Pyrite (111)
3rd: Pokemon73 (124)
4th: Michelle (145)
5th: CJ (151)
6th: HeroofDarkness (160)

Congratulations to Kinopio on being the closest :) ! I'll archive this now, since it's been sitting at the bottom of the forum for nine months XD
