Pokemon Pear Box Art

What do you think about it?

[Simon]

It looks nice but...why Celebi? I hate that annoying thing on NetBattle. So waht's gonna be on Diamond?

And does anyone have a spare DS they can let me borrow?

EDIT: Are you sure that is real? Pokemon DP isn't going to be released until 2006. Seems kinda early for a site to be planning pre-orders.

[DarkPegasus]

Ok if somebody pre-orders there he/she is the stupidest pearson on earth... First of they don't have a contract with Nintendo so they can't seel their stuff and if you watch closely you will see the site's adress on the box... Man that is so fake...

[Sylver]

I think it's fake, Nintendo never write multicolr text in pokemon boxes.

[Simon]

What exactly do you mean by multicolor text? I don't see any multicolor text besides the logo of the site.

And as for the logo of the site on the box, it's not uncommon for some online stores to put their logo on the images.

I still think it's fake though. Box art looks too "plain".

EDIT: Has Pokemon DP been released in Japan yet? It doesn't look like it to me. Is it being released simultaneously in Japan and the U.S. (and any other countries)?

And do you think the price of the NDS will go down by the time DP comes out? Usually the price of all gaming devices go down.

[Happy Dude]

Most definitly a box art there is no word on a box yet.

But i suppose that site is making pre-orders for next year.

I've seen sites do it before.

[Eon-Rider]

You could've just posted the picture and not posted the link. It is kinda advertising even though you aren't trying to.
And that looks too plain to be the cover thing.

[Smarties-chan]

It's too empty to be an official box art and besides why would they release the box art already?

[Charizard_Fire_God]

Lol, its got its English box art already? Tch, I don't think so. Nor do I think Celebi would be on it. There'd probably be a legendary pkmn from tha 4th series on it...

[Smarties-chan]

Yeah I agree with Charizard Fire God gamefreak would never put Celebi on the box, everyone wants to see new pokemon so putting a new pokemon on the box makes everyone wonder what sort of pokemon it is and then they buy the game to find out.

[Chiru]

CFG has a point. Something like this happened with FR/LG too. The celebi picture seems to be kind of messed up on the edges, and I think it would say "pearl version" instead of just "pearl". I think it's fake. No offense, but I do.

[Pogiforce-14]

The game sounds like a possibility, but not the way they have it portrayed. It seems to me they may have gotten wind of a possible concept or rumor from nintendo or another source, decided to cash in on it, and started promising preorders on an unconfirmed game. That's just my opinion, though.

[Tentachu]

The Diamond Box Art on that site has Jirachi on it...

It's fake...

[CatGirl_Luna]

I know for sure it's fake... like everyone says.. it just looks.. TO plain. And besides, the game isn't even out in Japan =O

[Fury of Ninetales]

something that makes the game look even faker is that both the diamond and pearl boxes are white. i know that diamonds and pearls are whitish, but gamefreak likes to make their boxarts colorful, not white. I'm betting that the real boxarts will be light blue for diamond and light pink for pearl.

[Smarties-chan]

Yeah I agree with Fury of Ninetales too well anyway my point is that taht box art is obviously a fake.

[Dizzy]

It's fake, they wouldn't use Celebi, common sense, they'd use a new pokemon of VALUE, not an older legendary.

[Chiru]

Hm, I just saw the Diamond boxart. Again, the Jirachi image has that white border around it that makes it look like it was poorly photoshopped onto the rest of the image. Gamefreak wouldn't do something like that.

The boxarts are definitely fake. Someone probably just made those images to put in place of the boxart since the official version hasn't been released yet, but in that case it would have made a lot more sense to just have a 'boxart not available' image.

[silverbullet2k4]

Whoever made the boxart sucked at making it. It doesn't even say Pearl Version, it just says Pearl, and so many other **** cheap photoshop mistakes.

[The Fallen]

I seen some news posted about the boxes on a site. They had Jirachi on Diamond and Celebi on Pearl. They may be promo boxes, though I doubt they are. We'll see soon though.

[Virtual Headache]

Well, this is no more than a lame fake. It doesn't even look good...

Where did you see that?

[Jarman]

That's incredibly old and fake.

[Happy Dude]

Yeah,As said before nintendo wouldn't put old ones on it probobly Rukario or something.XD

[Renagadez]

FAKE! someone close this topic.

[MewMaster1000]

I also looked at the Diamond Box art. It has Jirachi on it. Pearl has Celebi. Since when has Nintendo put pokemon from different genatations. On the same series of games?
Or maybe there using it as substitute for when the real box art comes out. I'm gonna pre-order and see what I get

[Triaspia]

dont do that its most likely a scam, nintendo has confirmed that diamond and pearl (not pear like the title says).

The Japaneese box art is ALWAYS revield first (obiously) and being the hard core pokemon fan I am and going by all the sites a visit I would have finished it yet (there is still no name for the region).

we still only know 5 pokemon from the diamond/pearl seris and only 2 of the english names have been revield (munchlax and bonsley), going by the movie pictures which as been screened in japan already, a trainer owns Rakuio (im going by the pics on serebii for this bit) so he cant be a ledgendary, the ledgendary they are likely put on the cover will version exclusive and the only way to get the other is to trade with the corosponding game like it was in rs to enhance the story line.

back on topic:
The pic is clearly fake and when I find the correct images and nobody beats me to it I will post them in there complete and un edited glory.

[Jarman]

Of course it's a scam. They just put it there to help preorders. Nintendo didn't even make it, the website did.

[Kurono]

Its a figment of complete imagination...it doesn't exist..we all know that..

[Jirachi3]

a trainer owns Rakuio (im going by the pics on serebii for this bit) so he cant be a ledgendary, the ledgendary .


actually in the new serebii.net pokedex it was classified as a legendary
but back on topic:the boxart would have been on serebii first anyways so it definatly a fake

[Jarman]

This needs to be closed. A topic made long before this one already established that they're fake, and this one is saying the same thing, so it should be locked.

[MewMaster1000]

But really, why would Nintendo put pokemon from different genarations on the same series?

[aqonix]

I would believe it if the box was japanese since its comeing out there before here.

[AbareMax]

Oh my goodness...Sylver: Gullible is written on the wall! XD

Clearly, there is no room for discussion on this. The game isn't even out in Japan, nor is Pokémon Ranger: Pather to D/P. Don't trust any sites other than official...seriously. If I said the world was going to blow up now...would you believe me? I hope not.


AbareMax

[Nor]

I dont think that real. We will get a box art once it comes out in Japan. Why would Celebi be on the cover?

[MewMaster1000]

Wait till Nintendo fines out. thats gonna be funny

[Jarman]

Wait till Nintendo fines out. thats gonna be funny

They won't care. It's not illegal, anyways.


We all know that the boxarts are fake, so stop saying stuff like "lol i think its fake lololol".

[RoMeRz]

The simple fact is - the first boxes released will be the jap ones. Which wont and dont look like that. So.

[Jarman]

I would believe it if the box was japanese since its comeing out there before here.

Then you're incredibly gullible and not very smart at all. Would 3rd & 2nd generation pokemon be on the boxart of 4th generation games?

[RoMeRz]

I think we have established that they would not.

To be fair - its a hell of alot better than this

http://i3.ebayimg.com/03/i/04/c6/43/e2_2.JPG

I know that isn't meant to be the box art of the upcoming, but its just as bad. Very poorly done.

Maybe someone should make a sticky about fake stuff atm ?

[Lightning]

Er, guys, I don't think that's meant to be the actual box or a ploy to fool you into thinking it is. o_O Looking at it it just looks like a temporary placeholder until the official boxart comes out...hence why the page it's on is a page for pre-ordering the game.

But I digress. We've all established the fact this isn't official, so I'm going to close this now. ^_^;

[Rukario]

it's defenately a made up box-art... but i do like the colorful and somewhat funny description - hehe - It's pretty good :)
