Do you think there’s some sort of in-joke with Froakie in X and Y? What I’m getting at is, Froakie is a frog, and the new region seems to be mostly based around Paris, France. And there’s a certain delicacy in France that Froakie just happens to be related to. You see where I’m getting with this? |3 So yeah, do you think that was intentional? (It’d be especially hilarious if Froakie’s later evolutions just happened to be chef themed. XD)

Well, not really, no.

I mean, don’t get me wrong; it’s far from impossible.  I just think that the announcement of a new generation of Pokémon is invariably accompanied by an absurd amount of speculation based on remarkably little evidence, and I prefer to stay out of it.  I suppose it would certainly be amusing.  I think the French themselves find being called ‘frogs’ offensive (understandably enough) so they might have to be careful how they spin something like that.  Also we don’t want to be tempting kids to eat their starters because that’s just bad for business.
