Corocoro seems to finally be leaking. As there is some movie news on the September issue (the one releasing this month...) already being reported on by Anime News network (which is what some of the fan sites like Serebii and such sourced initially). (here's the news if anyone doesn't believes me
I hope they have the gym leaders and E4, even if they didn't bring it up. After all they didn't bring up any movie stuff (actually they don't always hint at what's going to be in it, unless it's really big).

Jeez that's early. But yeah I think it's just starting to leak now, I'm pretty sure we've got plenty more information regarding this issue headed our way over the next few hours. Remember this is a Mega Evolution scoop, so I wouldn't be surprized if the issue was heavily focused around new Mega Evolutions (and pehaps the movie) rather than other game aspects. Although I agree about wanting to see the rest of the Gym Leaders and E4 members, it would kind of make sense to make up the second half following the previous issue which showcased the first bunch.

Well it is officially coming out on the 12th, and the earliest an issue usually starts leaking is five days in advance. We'll probably get more tomorrow, and over the weekend for sure :)

I hope that Glacia's ace will be Froslass, as it has purple on it's body, much like how Glacia's dress' color. Plus she will be one of the few (if not the first) E4 who's ace shares a type with that of another E4's specialty.

I'm sure if Phoebe's second Dusclops got substituted for Dusknoir, then it's likely that Glacia's second Glalie will get substituted for Froslass or another Ice-type.

Oh, and in that scan notice how Dialga is in the top left corner, Primal reversal pehaps?

Probably. I do doubt her ace will be a Pokémon that isn't related to her RSE team.

I did not. Oh but Primal Dialga is Dark Dialga in Japan which means it's not a real Primal. It's possible normal Dialga could be in these games though :3

Their cloths resemble those worn in traditional china and southeast asia. Also their names are Lan and Fu in the Japanese version which irc are Chinese. So I think their clothes are meant to represent their culture (heritage or otherwise) more so than their type. I wouldn't mind a change, so long as they don't look goofy.
After a quick check on bulbapedia, their names are based on some variety of Orchid.

It's a Japanese pronunciation. The Chinese pronunciation is feng-lan for the same flower.

I just hope at least they get more colorful clothes... Oh leaks where are you.
(I have the time because tomorrow's a public holiday here, what coincidence)

The most I'm expecting is something similar to what Maxie is wearing but in light blue.

Hopefully they'll come tonight/tomorrow.

With the new Megas announced, I have the feeling that (at least in the rematches) the E4 MIGHT get mega evos.
Mega Salamance probably suggests Drakes mega.

I think so too, but then again the Kalos E4 had Megas they could have used too (especially Siebold).

I'm hoping that Winona ends up using Altaria as her ace (even if it does lose it's flying type) and uses it's Mega. It will no longer be as easy to take down with Ice type.

That's true. Even though it has 4 weaknesses, none of them are x4 easily taken down by an Ice-Type. Her Altaria was already a threat in the originals.

Yeah. Also unless they add a great deal of steel and Poison types before Fortree we'll have very few options (at least in terms of those who can do stab super effective damage). We have Aggron, Probopass (maybe), Azumarill, Gardevoir, Wigglytuff (if one wants to travel back to the Rustboro area and get it) Swalot, and Muk.

Don't forget that Steven may give out Steel Wing again, so a lot of Flying types will have access to that! Also, in RSE Sludge Bomb became available at Dewford Hall after beating Norman, so if that stays the same it'll also come in handy against Altaria if it Mega Evolves.

Oh right...Huh, seems like the TM's that would be most helpful are around the Dewford area (Ice Beam and Sludge bomb), if it does become go Mega.

I like how early you can access high powered specific TMs in Hoenn, like the ones said above Sludge Bomb, Ice Beam, Overheat can all be obtained way before the Elite Four.

Though, two out of those three got down grades in XY (they're still pretty powerful though), so they might not be as useful as in the originals.
I wonder if GF will change up the move pools to fit in with the Physical, and Special split that occurred in Gen IV.

Well, back to the topic, I wonder why the rest of the gym leaders and E4 haven't been revealed in CoroCoro. I think they should have.. :/

^I agree; I thought they'd be revealed along with the Megas. Pokebeach said these would be all the scans, but I'm still hoping there'll be more. Seems unlikely, though ;; Maybe the other Gym Leaders and E4 will be shown next month if they aren't show this time.

Yeah, next issue seem very likely. I can see Wallace being announced alongside Milotic's Mega(s) (I get the feeling it'll be announced next issue).

Wally is also missing (as is Scott should the BF return...maybe he'll go reverse Tabitha in his redesign xD ). Maybe GF will wait longer for to show them.
Not sure for what purpose, seeing how they already showed Steven who is the most important. Unless the rest all have Megas to be revealed alongside them (this would've been the perfect chance though).

Well this issue was branded as the Mega Evolution scoop, so we were pretty much expecting this issue to be focused soley upon the Mega Evolutions. I'd say next month we'll see the remaining Leaders and Elite Four members, after all there are only 3 more issues until the games are released.

The only real major new design for a Gym Leader they've given is to Roxanne and Brawly, possibly. I think we may just get one more new design, but then you never know; Flannery, Wattson and Norman look quite similar to the original, but just much more updated. Really want to see some sort of new design for Winona. Her one in R/S isn't bad and all, but she's just one of those Gym Leaders that kinda need a new design to make her more memorable.

Actually all the gym leaders pretty much look the same as the originals. Roxanne just got a new (funkier) outfit while Brawly is the one with the bigger change - tan, new outfit, super sassy gym, now literally a gym.

But considering that characters like Tabitha got a drastic overhaul, I wouldn't be surprised if the next few leaders/E4 get truly major redesigns.

Maybe they'll have another Nintendo Direct, or even Pokemon Direct focused on only these games, and show one or two off. If not then it's going to be a long while as the next issue I think won't be coming out officially until the 15, meaning the earliest it'll probably leak is the 10th, so more than a month to wait. Even then we may not get them next issue. The November (the one coming out in October btw) issue will be the pen-ultimate, then comes the December (the November release) issue. So three issues to go. The chances of them being shown pre-release are starting to drop.
