That's true...they should've used that line for the Fairy type if you ask me...of course it may not even be related to Pokémon.

Yeah, the introduction of the Fairy typing would have totally fit with that headline. I mean, it doesn't get much bigger than the intro of a new typing in these games. So chances are it's related to something else. :(

Or maybe it's the fairy types strengths and weaknesses xD
Or maybe it's the rumored second forme of Mewtwo...

I'm so excited at the possibility of it having a second forme. I hope that turns out to be true. I still don't see why Mewtwo needed new formes, but at this point, they're gladly welcomed in my book.

I agree, I love the new forme. Hopefully the other forme will look taller and less "soft" as Éclair forme Mewtwo looks somewhat like a child, so an "older" looking forme would be a nice contrast. Come on Mewtwo Y forme, come true!

The rumor on Pokebeach suggests that the forme that's been shown is resembling more of Mew, while the second one we haven't seen yet will resemble more Mewtwo. So I think it's a safe bet that you'll get what you want!

They're anticipating it to be the biggest news of the century which would imply that it's more groundbreaking than a new type? Difficult to tell really..

Duel type moves are the only thing I see as more groundbreaking...it's proably an over exaggeration though even for Pokémon standards.

Keep in mind...everytime they do this it isn't as big as they make it sound.

We got 5 new Pokemon. Next CoroCoro's "biggest news of the century" could be 7 new Pokemon instead.

I can see them adding/revealing more Pokemon next month. Possibly going over some features already revealed and more into the Pokemon revealed. All we know is that we're supposed to be getting new info.

Or even better they could be 7 evolutions of past Pokémon, that'll definitely be "big" imo, not century big though but as I've said before it's likely an exaggeration even for them.

Whatever it is I'm hoping for something big and maybe loads of new stuff! Maybe some evolutions of past-gen Pokemon? Elite Four and Champion? Maybe even more Fairy-types?

*fingers crossed for starter evolutions so everyone can make final decisions*

It probably is the starters' evolutions honestly. It's pretty much the last big thing that people are hyped up about and expecting to see, which I guess would be pretty big news. Either that or it could just be big news in the sense that it's more than we got this issue, as Xander said. That, or we're just going to get thrown some huge curveball that none of us were ever expecting =P

I dont like the idea of revealing the starters.I wish they remain secret until the last month at least.
I would love to see older Pokemon that will get evos/prevos revealed.(Come on Banette!)
It would also be ideal to know how we will transfer older Pokemon.

Ooh, It would be great to have information on previous evolutions! Banette, Sableye, Chatot, Dunsparce, Mawile ;)

I believe the "biggest scoop in the century" may be more info of Mewtwo's new forme in the game, since it'll be a month after the movie's release. Considering how much of a big deal Mewtwo's new forme is to the fandom, it makes sense.

The names Inkay, Malimar and Pangoro are confirmed from the first batch of rumors which adds some credibility to them.

Seems the rumors do have some truth to them after all.

Still not 100% sure on those rumors. Unless Patrice is Sycamore's first name (which, why would you leak the professor's first name and not last name?), then Patrice =/= Sycamore.

And the website and magazine scans said that Pangoro has a new way of evolving, but not Inkay. It would be weird to advertise "new ways of evolving!" but only mention one of the new Pokémon revealed so far does it. At least I think so--you'd lose out on potential hype.

There was always some truth to those rumors, but as we know already they aren't all true.

They didn't even give away much for Pancham evolving, so maybe they're keeping the new methods a secret?

I hope you're right though and not all are true, as double type moves seem like too much...

Definitely. I don't even care if Mewtwo gets another forme--but, similar with "what if they introduce another Eevee evolution later?," it would be very...weird to announce one forme at one time and then another forme later. And to give one forme a movie and neglect the other one is just silly.

And double-type attacks can't even really work. It still haunts my nightmares.

Anything else this guy says can be true--just no dual-typed attacks. It's absurd.
