I don´t think they will reveal anything in Pokémon Smash, and if they do, probably silhouettes or any other info.

At least CoroCoro is coming next week. : P

:classic:

I'm choosing X and Froakie as my starter. >w>
For some reason I'm not expecting news... but I really do hope for it!

... And I don't know if a new eeveelution (if it will happen, that is) is important enough to give a silhouette on.
The next thing we'll see under a silhouette is probably the small legendary of this generation.

Yeah, you're right. I kind of had this thought that if they showed all the past Eeveelutions... it could be possible they'd reveal a silhouette at the end.

But at least we'd get to see the last of the old Eeveelution costumes. ;)

Which is...right this moment.

Well, let us know if there's anything...interesting.

I swear you said that before, like word for word lol

Still it can be fun to speculate about anything really. If we only speculate the things we knew, we would have very limited topics. The good thing about having not much revealed is that nothing is impossible yet.

[PokémonShinySilver]

Wait, they just showed Leafeon, they already showed Leafeon 2 weeks ago... I'm pretty sure.

Could they be keeping on showing old Eeveelutions multiple times rather than once on Pokémon Smash?

Edit: They also showed Espeon, which I'm pretty sure they showed it last week.

[Suicune™]

Silhouette up next... I wonder what it could be.

Got a picture for analysis?

Cyclone

[PokémonShinySilver]

So far, they've shown Leafeon, Espeon and Jolteon as the old Eeveelutions. In the previous weeks, they showed only two of them, but this week they showed 3 of them instead.

Could it be next week they'll show the silhouette or will it be in several weeks? Only time will tell. ;)

[Suicune™]

It doesn't look big enough to be a Pokemon sooo..

[SnowpointQuincy]

Nothing New on Smash, but weird Paper Airplane gives a lot of Rumor-Fodder to Flying Type eeveelution.

[XanderO]

It was the kid doing Yo-Yo tricks. That was part of the Talent thing that was done a few weeks ago. Didn't have anything to do with Pokemon, just a community thing that Smash does.

It has nothing to do with Eevee, they've been doing community games like that for a long time. Its just part of Smash's normal set up.



So this was just posted on Pokejungle.

[Suicune™]

I'm really finding that hard to believe, we've had similar "scans" to these in the lead up to Corocoro, it's a little too early and they've reused images from the Trailer. It looks like it was slapped together within a matter of minutes IMO.

[Victini]

I can't find that photo on pokejungle... did he delete it?
Either way, those Pokemon look so uber fake it hurts. ;w; If those 'mons are real, I'll be deathly surprised. vwv;

And if you review the cat-like being and the female hero, they both have funky eyes. The cat has two different sized eyes and the girl... well, you'll see it.
The male also has a really funky hand going on there too. Amateur art is very amateur... so it's safe to say that the photo is 100% fake.

Lame attempt at evolving Froakie and producing a crappy looking take on an Eeveelution?

Cyclone

[Twilight Sky]

I'm...honestly kind of disappointed in the bear. Can't say it really fits my tastes. Oh well.

The cute...kitty-looking things looks fairly.....interesting? I'm at a loss for words here.

There weren't any evolutions posted anywhere....what are you talking about? XD

[Magmaruby and Aquasapphire]

Well the pokemon in those scans don't even look like pokemon to me but fakemon...I like better the other fakemon we've had.

See that big image some three posts above mine.

Cyclone

[Twilight Sky]

Oh, that image that Suicune posted! It does seem a bit strange....though it would be hard for me to say anything just yet, though. Mostly because I'm finding it really hard to say exactly what it is. XD I'm still pretty skeptical about it being a new eeveelution or anything like that. @_@

[Forever]

Something about the CocoCoro one looks really fake. Maybe design style? idk, it just doesn't seem in line with Sugimori usually. ;(

Maybe it's a scaled down version of a pokemon? Although it's quite round... kinda like Voltorb/Electrode. @)@

Has anyone heard about this rumor yet? It's yet again from 4chan:

Inside sources claim that we're not just getting one or two new types, we're getting FIVE. Here's what we're dealing with now:

SOUND: Finally becoming its own full-fledged type, several older Pokemon are getting reclassified with this secondary typing (For instance, Jigglypuff is now Normal/Sound). It seems to be strong against Rock Types.

LIGHT: You heard that right. It's supposed to represent light and the color spectrum (i.e., rainbows). Xerneas is partially.of this type. Absol is re-typed as Dark/Light.

SHADOW: After having been toyed with in Colosseum, the Type is back in full force. It seems all of the moves from XD are back. The idea is to make a truly 'evil' kind of Pokemon. Yveltal is partially of this Type.

TOXIC: Now considered to be separate from Poison (which drops defense every turn), it seems to be good against Water enemies.

NO TYPE: As in, no weaknesses, resistances, or immunities, but none of its moves are super-effective. Based around a strange alien-invasion storyline that's seen in the post-game. Only one Pokemon has this type, and it rivals Arceus in power.

Classic Mode turns off the new types, but it must be unlocked after beating the Elite Four. Easy Mode and Challenge Mode are available from the start.

Another new thing they're adding are Pokemon 'Traits', which is a bonus given to attacks not of the Pokemon's type (For instance, Charizard has Dragon-like Traits). A few Pokemon have different Traits depending on form. Most Unown have different Traits depending on letter.

Friendship is being played up heavily, as a new command has been added in battle that acts as a last resort button. You are given the option now of deleting your fifth move or saving it in your Final Option box. When your last Pokemon is down to half health, they will be allowed to use this move, which gets stronger through friendship. If you get the health back, you lose the option.

Also, the starters' final forms are Grass/Rock, Water/Flying, and Fire/Fighting.

Some of these rumors better be fake.
