Yeah just merging with rumours (going to change to rumours/unconfirmed thread @ title) for now. Prove why it should be real etc or not, I don't mind either.

Cello April 11th, 2012 3:22 PM

It was already proven fake on 4chan. The background is from Platinum apparently, which is what gave it away. Also the typography is done very sloppily, leaving white marks in some of the japanese symbols.
The guy posting it claimed his friend works as the head director, which he took a quick snapshot from.

I wouldn't rely on 4chan for the leaks. There are a lot of people posting fake information currently.
Plus 4chan wouldn't get the information before 2ch. Very unlikely anyways. :P

Kenshin5 April 11th, 2012 7:14 PM

I concur^, even if it wasn't confirmed fake it already looks horrid as is I would have had major doubts regardless. At least with the two fakes earlier this week with the "new" grass and water starters and the clock tower the people put effort into it. This on the other hand looks like garbage.

On second look, it seems like a poor edit of Frosslas, even more of a tip off.

The starters will have a secret...if true maybe they will come with their Dw abilities...must resist urge to pick Snivy again, it's Tepig's turn...or maybe they all gain formes of their own...Water/Fighting Samurrot? Grass/Psychic Serperior, and Fire/dark Emboar, oh I wish...

Its prolly a continuation to the Elemental Hyperbeams and Pledge/Oath attacks. A third Starter only set of attacks.

It'd be better if it were grass/fighting, fire/dark, and water/psychic or grass/dark, fire/psychic, and water/fighting if you ask me, each starter would be both strong and weak against each other in that case, a rather nice change of pace from the norm if you ask me lol.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire April 11th, 2012 7:55 PM

Oh, maybe it'll be a Physical set of moves then seeing how the beams and Oaths are all special. They could be elemental Giga impacts ^_^.
N missing...he proably is hiding, or maybe he isn't in Unova yet until later in the game, that'll be ironic...

Xander Olivieri April 11th, 2012 8:24 PM

So far 2 years is right.

New Pokemon are just old Pokemon bringing the Pokedex from 156 to 300ish.

Nothing else has been shown yet.

two Rumors quelled.

Another rumor put to rest was that we start in the big 3D city. We do start in a new place, but not there.

pokemonpokemonpokemon59 April 12th, 2012 9:50 PM

The cactus plant reminds me of a fake pokemon that was posted on serebii. By the way the person described it, they'd look about the same, so I say 50/50?
Maybe it WAS a pokemon planned for B/W2 but when it was leaked it was announced as fake to cover it up...?

Mana April 13th, 2012 12:25 AM

Having another starter-only move would be a bit boring :/ especially since anyone is unlikely to use all 3 anyway, idk just seems kind of pointless.

bwburke94 April 15th, 2012 10:55 AM

Freeze Shock and Ice Burn are in the coding of B/W. If this was Generation VI, and B2/W2 players couldn't battle B/W players, they wouldn't be there. This also rules out any new moves, Pokémon, or similar changes that would prevent the games from battling each other.

Kyurem will revert to its base forme when battling a B/W player (similar to Giratina/Shaymin/Rotom when battling a D/P player.)

NEW RUMOR!!!!!!!!
 
Pokejungle has recently posted a rumor on its site

The link is

http://pokejungle.net/2012/05/09/june-2012-corocoro-rumors/#comments

This is a rumor but the subway info is pretty exciting

DISCUSS!!!

blue May 9th, 2012 2:38 PM

Very interesting, I wouldn't have noticed this otherwise! I really do hope Starly is in B2W2 I'd definitely use Staraptor and I love their line.

Zayphora May 9th, 2012 4:15 PM

But I thought akuroma was supposed to be the region professor....:o

Kenshin5 May 9th, 2012 4:23 PM

Seems weird with the lack of Battle Tower being mentioned with the BF unless I am missing something. If those rumors are true hopefully it is stated what typing the gym leader is and where he/she is located. As well as new frontier brains.

Battle Tower and the Battle Subway are pretty much the same thing. They work exactly the same way.

ZStyleNanami May 9th, 2012 7:03 PM

I think the new Prof. is expected. I would of been shocked if it was still Juniper. She was young and seems to me more of a traveling prof then the others. So I can see her saying she is exploring the world now.

I never heard that. I always thought he was just some guy working for the evil team.

If the contest work as the anime OMG YESSSS!

I suppose it would be a bit redundant, although it would be a bit nicer with more then four facilities.

Either way if they did have a Battle Frontier it would detract a bit for the people saying their is nothing to do post Main Story.

Xander Olivieri May 9th, 2012 8:14 PM

Akuroma isn't a professor. He's a Researcher, same as Fennel. Fennel is the closest thing you can describe him to in the Pokemon World. Nintendo and Game Freak have never referenced him as the game's Professor, though they do call him a Researcher.

B2W2 may not have a professor.

Ho-Oh May 9th, 2012 11:29 PM

The subway being replaced is not something I'd like. Well, I never use it, but the subway is unique to Unova and losing that is like taking a part of the games away. Plus a professor w/ the name of Oak? Pffttttt. Also for a 48 page pull out that isn't much information unless it's only a quarter of it, but idk. I think there will be a grass leader in general anyways lool.

I think they said his name is a type of Oak. Its not actually Oak. Like how there different kinds of Turkeys or Turtles. Not sure though.

Ho-Oh May 10th, 2012 2:54 AM

Ohh right, yeah I meant that the fact that it's similar to Oak. All the other professors had names that were generally related to trees but nothing too close to what was already done before. :(

Maybe its Oak's wife or child XD. Actually a child would make a lot of sense since we know nothing about Gary's parents. If this could be true I wonder if they would toss pass references in. Cynthia said something about old champions gathering in BW so I wonder if this could be a fusion of the past gens fused into one. Like a Power Rangers kind of thing lol.

xdom May 10th, 2012 4:46 AM

Oaks wife could be in it idk if he acutlly did but it would add more depth to him
