    I was pointed to this at the PokéGym a little earlier. I'm surprised it's not leaked further, but there again...

    Anyways, the original topic can be found Here

    I've got a handy contact in Japan who got his hands on images of a flyer depicting 3 cards of the new Starters from Diamond and Pearl. He's just sent me some scans which I'd like you to check out. I'm guessing they're either promos, or the first images of cards from the set itself, can't say for sure.

    As promised, the card design has had a slight overhaul - the flavor text's back and there's some minor cosmetic alterations, although most things stay intact including the circles - probably the best we could ask for really!

    So as promised, here are the pics.

    I've been asking a few people what they think. I can't make my mind up whether I like 'em or not...


    EDIT: Better pics added

    Just received them a few hours sooner than expected! There's 5 cards for visual feasting... One of them, the electric one, I don't think I've seen before. Kooroboshi(?) or something is the bug I think.

    To be honest, I like the new style better than the old one. Even if there's really not a big change, I think they are better... But on the other hand, I hope that not all the cards will use this style, in my opinion it's a bit too "unique" let's say to be used for a common card. Maybe the EX ones or the promo should use it, or anyway important cards (like star rarity). That's my opinion.
     
    I think they're awesome and I can't wait for these. Unfortunately, I must, as the UK isn't getting 'em until after DP is released...
     
    are these the real new cards?!? they look real to me! but they're blurry! I would love to see more clearer pics!, fang, could you ask um... Captain Library for better images?!?!
     
    I was hoping for something exactly like this - something pretty similar, but made better. If it ain't broke, don't fix it...they've just tweaked it a bit. :P
     
    Haha haha, what oh kool, new cards. They weren't wot i expected. But they do seem to have the flaour text :)
     
    The lack of coverage in regards to these is quite astounding. But there are more scans apparently, posted up at the Pokégym.

    That's cool! I wonder what the electric pokemon and the bug pokemon is?
     
    The bug Pokemon, Korobooshi is already well known, but nothing is known about it. There is no indication of it's types, and no official art has been revealed. These cards are groovy. The new electric Pokemon looks grand.
     
    Right. This has gotten out of hand now. Too much bashing of WPM and this ain't fair on him considering he's 100% right...

    For the sake of all parties, I'll come clean. Cascade made these images, and made them extremely impressively, and I helped get the word out. We were hoping this would turn out to be a pretty good hoax, which it WAS, since so many people believed the fake and are still even doubting it now. Even after WPM's blatant evidence that they were fake, I've spotted some people trying to find ways to prove they're real.

    WPM found out that they were fakes and didn't want Cascade to get eaten alive, so he revealed the fakes without mentioning the names, which got him a lot of bashing. We apologise sincerely, WPM, we didn't want that to heppen.

    In the meantime... aren't these the most realistic fakes you have ever seen? I'd say Cascade's getting better by the minute :D
     
    Where's the "proof"?

    I'd like to make sure they're fake so I don't give misinformation.
