That's quite a cute-looking Pokémon! It reminds me a lot about Grumpig, for some reason. Maybe it's because of those spots around its hands? If it has a pre-evolution, and it looks sort of like Spoink, then that would be pretty cool! Because of its blue eye color, I'm thinking that this is partially a psychic-type Pokémon. Either that, or it could be a dark-type, due to its body color.

JP September 28th, 2013 2:18 PM

It looks kinda stiff... I don't know if I find that to be legit. Definitely a cute kind of design for the head area though.

Xander Olivieri September 28th, 2013 2:18 PM

I it's real, I see it being pure Ground or Normal/Ground since GF has been randomly slapping Normal onto a lot of things. The background seems like a desert so I'd definatly vote for Ground. I don't subscribe to the color = type mindset since there are a few pokemon that break the trend.

Good design, but I guess your right, why is it sitting down in a battle?

It sitting down isn't really a problem, there's other Pokemon that appear sitting down. It just seems like its sitting straight up and just looks... stiff lol. Maybe it's because of the timing between it and the camera when the shot was taken, but I feel like it looks really stiff, like someone not-so professional came up with that image.

To be fair I found the still battle shots of Aurorus made it look very stiff...so it might a case that still images don't do them justice.

Looks interesting, the pokebeach rumour described it very plainly...so I'm pleasantly surprised. (That's if it's real)

Hope a pic of the spider leaks.

Hiatus September 28th, 2013 2:43 PM

From the looks of it, this Pokémon seems to be kind of weak... physically. d: If it is, then I hope that it's a lot stronger on the special side of things. I'm also hoping for it to get some sort of an ability that not many other Pokémon seem to have, such as Filter, Bad Dreams (a bit unlikely, since this is exclusive to Darkrai), Wonder Skin, or maybe even Magic Bounce.

Salt-the-Sloth September 28th, 2013 4:26 PM

Everyone two new trailers have come out! Nothing new but we do get a closer look at Orotto and other nice things!

Do you guys think it's real? I'm kind of on the fence. But I do think it looks neat.

I think this might be fake, if you look closely the circle lines around the pokemon look slightly altered, this might be part of the animation but still it doesn't hurt to be wary. Also I've said it before, why post only one screen shot of the pokemon?

Snowdrop September 28th, 2013 4:57 PM

Is this snail fella real, you think? It's got 260 notes on Tumblr. Lines look kinda like they were drawn in MS Paint, but if I recall correctly when you zoom in on the new 3D Pokemon they're lines sharpen. Not certain and I don't want to watch anymore game footage :P

Doubt it since it's not on Serebii. But it doesn't really look like a fakemon (or something a Pokemon designer would make, really, but you never know...)

OOPS, this is indeed a Fakemon! Disregard!

Killjoy September 28th, 2013 5:04 PM

I freaking love that snail lol but I don't think it's real.

Fake.

Look at the background. The diagonal of the mountain. The backdrop was cut, dragged, and pasted from the left to the right side in order to distinguish it from the original image of helioptile. The editing, of course, is very obvious after close examination.

Looks like a badger, but a really, really stiff one. It's in such a weird position too and there's no shadow anywhere below it. There's a chance I'm wrong here, but I'm calling fake on this one.

Haha, that's DEFINITELY a fake. No one should even question it.

See, the leaker attempted to edit the backdrop so it wasn't obviously taken from the Helioptile screen shot. The straight diagonal on both sides is blatantly edited.

If there were to be another Eeveelution, what type would you like it to be?
~I'd hope for a Steel or a Dragon type Eeveelution.

How do you think Eevee evolves into Sylveon?
~Trade holding some sort of item. XY are emphasising connectivity.

I know I'm probably a broken record by this point, but personally I do not see another Eevee Evolution coming into the picture. Leaving it off with Sylveon would probably be for the best right now to capitalize on the Fairy Typing.

As for how it evolved, right now the largest thing that everyone seems to be pointing to is the Pokemon Amie.

I would say a special new Item method since evolution seems to update everytime we get a new generation.

Then there is location evolution as there are technically only 3 Special location evolutions, Moss Rock(Eterna Forest and Pinwheel Forest), Ice Rock (Route 217 and Twist Mountain), and Magnetized Cave (Mt Coronet and Chargestone Cave). These three areas will have to be present in X and Y to evolve Eevee, Magneton, and Nosepass and there is a rumor that there is a giant crystal that is related to the Fairy Type so it could be there.

Those are really the only things I can remember.

I think the giant crystal seen on the map will be a gym. Even if it wasn't I don't see them using the location method again...at least not like how Gen 4 did...they could do a location plus happiness evolution though thus combining the evolution methods of Gen's II and Gen's IV for the eevees.

Nice idea... I think it could be a gym too http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v232/korn0818/777ff663.gif

I like that leaked Pokémon, it reminds me of the fox-like statue from Japanese shrines.

I'm glad that this Pokémon isn't real. If it was real, then I wouldn't have liked it at all. It's good to have some simplicity, but the design of this Pokémon is just way too much simple. It's extremely similar to real-life snails as well. It's got nothing special that distinct itself from them. Maybe it would have looked a little more believable if it had a more dynamic color scheme, but... I don't know. D:

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire September 28th, 2013 10:16 PM

I wouldn't mind if we actually got another snail Pokemon this generation...one better than Marcargo...

Well maybe it's an edible Pokémon, considering Kalos was based on France. ^^ ^^
That explains why it doesn't look special. Lol

Who knows what kind of rumors we'll be hearing today...we seem to be getting new rumors everyday it seems...

With only two weeks left until the release of X and Y I don't see another Eeveelution popping up, unless they reveal it soon in some major trailer they've been saving for just before the release. I really wanted a dragon eeveelution to add with Sylveon, maybe next generation =(

I originally thought Sylveon would evolve similar to Milotic, maximizing it's beauty, and to do that would require feeding it specific treats on Pokemon Amie, but since Pokemon Amie only trains a Pokemon's Friendliness, Hunger and Play I don't think it'll be that.

Here's a thought : When Espeon and Umbreon were released, the new mechanic of evolving through happiness was implemented, and to promote this they used this method on Espeon and Umbreon. Same thing with the location evolution in Generation IV (as scarce as it is). We've been told there will be a new method of evolution via Pancham > Pangoro, so maybe this will also be the method of evolving Sylveon? The rumours were that Pancham evolves early 30's while a dark type is in your party. Maybe to evolve Eevee, you need to level up while a Fairy Type Pokemon is in your party?

The only other way I can think of would be to utilize the 3DS like Inkay > Malamar, but I can't seem to figure how it would make Eevee a Sylveon...
