Leaks/Rumors Discussion Thread

I'm hoping that the Pokédex leak is real... Well, only the part that Alola form is not a Gen. 1-exclusive...

5) Flammeo
6) Wrestligger

That dex is fake bcos it says Alolan Butterfree and we already saw regular Butterfree

Yeah, it's hard to believe that Pokedex leak when some of the names are spelt incorrectly.

Maybe the trailer in October will shed more light on the demo? I can imagine they'd like to aim for a mid-October release, approximately one month before the official release of the games.

 

[Bobbylicious]

it will come out mid-late october like they did with the ORAS demo. They're not going to release a demo like 2+ months before the games release, especially for a game like pokemon.

Yeah I don't really expect a the demo to be released until about a month from now, hopefully that means we'll get information on it after the next update.

I was wondering something. Was it the chinese leak that mentioned a dolphin Pokemon? Where that did that come from?

I'm putting together a list of how many Pokemon I think are likely as of right now (including evolution/prevolution predictions, credible rumours and past trends) and I'm not sure whether to include the Dolphin Pokemon.

 

[janejane6178]

Do u think that Drampa is actually the evolution of Dunsprace? I know it seems unlikely because gen 7 is sepereated from other gens, like gen 6. But they look so alike !

Yes it was the big Chinese leak, aka the one that has accurately predicted so much info. If we already got the sea cucumber (Pyukumuku), rugby monkey (Passimian) and mushroom (Morelull), hopefully we'll see the promised snowman and dolphin from the same leak in an upcoming trailer.

 

[Hikamaru]

I don't really want Marshadow to be a dolphin, because I would see it as a huge waste of a new Pokemon basis that everyone has wanted for so long.

A Dolphin Pokemon needs to just be something that you find in the wild, not a legendary. Period.

Said this before but I totally agree. Can't think how long I've wanted a Dolphin Pokemon, I'd like to be able to actually use it on my team if we do end up getting one.

Nah, I know that feeling. The last trailer didn't give us all that much, plus we have another 10 days until the next reveal so it's kinda like what goes inbetween?

 

[Hikamaru]

You know guys this feels kind of a lot like that dry period at the end of August before we got September news. It's kinda interesting to think about how slowly the days go by when nothing is revealed in the meantime LOL

or maybe that's just me?

I feel we're going through that kind of phase again, so don't be surprised if the activity dies down a bit before the 4th.

 

[janejane6178]

I just want the games to come out alreadyy :(

 

[janejane6178]

We still have a month to go through, JaneJane. xD

And... actually, in saying that, I'm surprised it's nearing October, already! I talk about time going by slow, but when I look at the bigger picture of things, time has been going by pretty quickly while we were busy speculating on pretty much everything. Before you know it, it'll already be November. o.o

But the games come out in the 18th right ?:o

 

[janejane6178]

If you don't live in Europe, yeah.

Well I do live there, but I will just buy the games on E-shop so I will be able to get it on the release date :)
I did the same when ORAS came out

 

[Hikamaru]

But the games come out in the 18th right ?:o

Yes. Unless if you're someone in Europe, which means 5 days later.

I am surprised we're already less than two months away, especially with all these discussions making the wait go fast. Sometimes I've even been losing track of what's been revealed so far hahahahaha

 

[blue]

Just under two months for us Europeans.

Something I do hope is that some of the new Pokemon are held off until the games release. I love the aspect of uncovering brand new Pokemon in game rather than knowing the full lineup beforehand. It seems like they have revealed a lot up to this stage, and as great as that is, it would also be nice to have a few surprises when actually playing.
