4th Gen Shinkansen in Pokémon Sunday is NOT a sign (August 2 updates)

I swear I actually just saw a clip of the magnet train from HG/SS before the commercial! LOL
It was only for a second and hard to tell, because it looked 3D and at an angle, but I swear I saw the gold player.

ZOMGGGGG!!!!
The train part, it will air, and it looks awesome... the camera changes like the torn world or something...
ZOMG ZOMG ZOMFG

This is going to be so awesomely super sensationalistic bro!!! Can't wait to see the footage once its up. Excited to see what the train will look like =D

man you guys are lucky -_- im going to filb.de and im just gonna keep refreshing until they upload it

Uh it ended already? All they showed was this 'Yellow forest' course on the Pokewalker where you can find wild pikachu...great?

I'm uploading a video from the HGSS part! 8D

- An NPC unlocks a new Pokéwalker area. Get a Chikorita!

The end.

Pretty sure the 'Yellow Forest' course has wild pikachu...as in the artwork she showed. The player already had a chikorita following behind and it was on the right side of the screen on the pokewalker.

Am I right in thinking that this is the first proper confirmation of Kanto being in the game? o.o

Ignoring the wide Japanese adventure that the Robarto trio come across, especially that awesome Pokémom shinkansen and their adventure across Tokyo, it's time for some updates.

- The topic is the Johto region and KANTO region!
- Look at that shinkansen! (So the shinkansen DOES have something to do wit the episode!) Note: Shinkansen is the Magnet Train.
- An NPC unlocks a new Pokéwalker area. Apparently you can get a Chikorita there.

The end. Short but very revealing (though the fact that the Train IS IN THE GAME already confirmed Kanto - finally you can get it in your brains).

So Kanto is finally confirmed by an official source... Well, at least all of the users worrying about it can relax, now. The post-game release of Kyogre, Groudon, and Rayquaza will most likely take place in Kanto, after all, although I wonder if we might also be seeing the return of Cerulean Cave and Mewtwo. I doubt it, except if Nintendo intends to leave the 3rd Generation behind as they appear to be doing, then it would be necessary to do so...

...On the other hand, the PokeWalker presents a second outlet for this...and I am honestly quite surprised that the generation's starters would be obtainable so easily. If that is true, then I wonder if it means the inclusion of the Kanto and Hoenn starters, as well...along with any other number of missing Pokemon...

EDIT: In that case, disregard the last part...although the idea is still possible.

I was actually distracted by the screen and typing as I went - it's not a Chikorita. It's Pikachu.

Well, let this be a lesson for you, then: get the facts straight first, then type. Heh.

Anyway, even if it does not have as much bearing on what was shown today, the speculation still stands.

Early video link - with no sound from the actual show. Not the greatest quality, but hey!

Well, finally here it is:


Sorry about lateness but my Internet is being a b*tch.

The bullet train animation looked nice also looks like Kanto being in the game is official so all the fans can stop being worried about that.

...From September 18th until November 10th, there will be a Wi-Fi event to unlock a new PokeWalker course.

...If I am understanding this correctly, that is.

I also enjoy what they have done with the Shinkansen/Magnet Train. They really are going even farther with these games.

I'm so glad that Kanto has been officially confirmed. Now all the people who couldn't put two and two together have nothing to worry about.

A translated something from a screenshot I took:

Haha that was funny! Magnet Train looks friggin amazing!

Hmm...
Whatever, the topic is the same, right?
He wants to know if the hero is from Johto. :P

Well, at least now, people who worried about Kanto can relax. Would've been great if they showed some more, though, instead of branching off into the Pokewalker. The Magnet Train looks great, though. Hopefully, we'll be getting some more info about Kanto in the next few weeks, like stuff about the Gyms, the possible Kyogre/etc. roaming there, etc. I'd like a concept map, though. XD

This is awesome. I love the magnet train. I didn't expect it to be in 3D. The train station looks nice and very modern. I noticed in Vermilion port, that the floor is see-through and you can see the waves moving underneath. To the person who translated that, thanks. I don't mind that they didn't show us Kanto (outside). (I want it to be a surprise.) The magnet train is confirmation enough. (I'm so glad that people will finally stop questioning whether or not Kanto will be in the game. lol)
