6th Gen X/Y General Chat and Speculation

If it's the real deal, the bird looks great! The bug thing looks rad too.

I imagine the bug evolving into a heart shaped pink butterfly.

Omg yesss. It could be called Hartter. Heart > Hart and Flutter > tter! It'd be strong specially and fasttt. Nooo now I'm going to want this too bad :(

I do like how the new bird is more colorful than the past gen birds, but Game Freak please give its final evolution some Staraptor-esque stats. There hasn't been any useful regional birds apart from Staraptor you know.

I like the new bug too, about time we had a pink bug that isn't Burmy/Wormadam Trash Cloak.

You forgot about Wurmple (thought it is more of a reddish pink)?
I too hope it'll be more useful, Unova's regional bird was disappointing despite being a three stage bird. Speaking of regionals It'll be nice if Nocowl and Swellow got final forms.

I hope at least they give it some sort of coverage move, like how Staraptor has Close Combat. I'd make it a lot better.

I think those two are good enough how they are. :( Like many Pokemon that were stopped at generations ago, there's a chance their evolutions could suck and I'm not sure if we really should be risking that tbh. Then again it's up to GF, so w/e lmao.

Well I liked all of the past generation evolutions introduced in Sinnoh so I'll likely like these two if they were to do them.
Swellow needs more power, while Nocowl needs more speed and special attack.

Swellow w/Guts is actually pretty good. It just needs a good coverage move.

Swellow's strong enough as it is really. Noctowl could use improvement yeah, but Swellow's perfectly good for NU and there's stronger things such as Staraptor suitable for the higher tiers really. Let Swellow die where it is AHAHAHA.

I hope these turn out to be legit, I'm especially liking the Bird Pokémon.

That there son is a fake, a properly made fake, but a fake nonetheless. If its made its rounds on DA, then its probably like the Cactowl one, and that BW starter page with the dolphin and panda. The page is also too clean, the makers of these always use a simple black background instead of a proper CoroCoro style mess, and the O that gets under the beam of light should have faded properly if this is a professional magazine. And don't make me laugh at how the top is completely straight, but the bottom has an illusional curve added to it by poor shopping skills to make it look real. The reflectibe light properties are also baked into the paper as well. Sorry guys, while they look awesome, there is no way from this early such a scan would have come out.

Daym that's a lot of analysis! Buuuut yeah I figured it was fake, but still being hopeful was nice ;_; I do hope the next CoroCoro does reveal new mons tho.

Not to mention, I don't think CoroCoro had ever used the English word "NEW" whenever they're revealing something... well, new. Just comparing it to last month's scans alone with Yveltal and Xerneas, you can tell there's a big difference in the actual scan and this one. Plus, it's still quite early I would think before new CoroCoro scans for this month start popping up.

Whoever made this though, they did a pretty good job with the 3D rendering and making that look pretty believable. But deviantArt? Not exactly he best primary source to find these things and turn out real.

Yeah I thought the same about new but I just assumed there was a logical explanation for that and we'd get the mons we wanted :x But nevertheless from the starters designs I think the designs of the other Pokemon will most likely be awesome too.

Not disproving the fakeness as I think its fake as well, but there was more analysis in the one where the fans had "proved" Gen 5's leaked Starter Final Evolutions to be fake. Then a month later we all found out that they were real.

One of the biggest "flaws" found was the type of paper and presentation of the Pokemon at that time. Over analyzing Pokemon news always gives a headache. XD

I'm sticking with, its fake until a proper source posts that it is true. So until Pokemon.com post it all info is fake to me.

Oh right I remember lmao. I secretly hope it turns out like that, too :( But even so we won't know anything for sure until the 15th which is almost 2 weeks away, ugh!

Don't worry, they've been confirmed as fakes. :/
Here.

Aw, really? D=

I loved that bird! And that caterpiller! But oh well. I doubt that this will reveal anything new, but isn't pokemon smash tonight?

About that fake CoroCoro image... I was absolutely fooled by it. xD

Those artists did such a great job at making it look too real. I bet it has fooled many people into thinking that it was a real CoroCoro leak. Wait, is it April 1st already? xD

*checks the date* Naw, of course not... it's only 2nd of February. :P

But yeah, about that... I was quite amazed when I heard that it was actually fake, but now when I think about it... they pretty much used the scenes of a wild Pikachu encounter and sending out Fennekin from the trailer, and just put the 3D models on top of those Pokémon to cover the ones from the trailer up. When you think about it, the designs look very similar in shape to Fennekin and Pikachu.

But ah well, we'll be seeing CoroCoro leaks probably sometime after February 10th. ;)
