5th Gen New Tauros Evolution

There are no evolutions or pre-evolutions of existing Pokemon in this generation, meaning Mamanbou is not Luvdisc's evolution (tragic!). This is the first generation without any Pokemon ties to previous generations.

Hopefully for you people in denial, this will sink in.

The only time a site denied or questioned the authenticity was when the troll claimed to have made them.

We just saw that the Mijumaru evo was real as well as the Pokabu Evo, despite what they guy that made the GIFs said. (Which proves my statement when I first saw them that the guy didn't know anything that he was talking about and had no credit to his dissection.)

And I say yet again, that's just a rumor. It didn't say that in CoroCoro. The only reason places are saying it is because a reliable source, who has been wrong many times before over time, said it.

yh,all you who say that they said no new evos, how bout showing us a link ,huh???

Ok.

GameFreak's Junichi Masuda has disclosed a surprising feature of Pokemon Black & White via his blog. In a post today, Masuda revealed that Black & White players will encounter only new Pokemon until they've cleared the game.

The reason for this design choice, says Masuda, is because they want to put kids and adults on the same starting line and give all players the feeling of "What is this Pokemon?", similar to what they might have experienced when playing the original of all Pokemon games, Pokemon Red & Blue.

Masuda and the development staff had players inside and outside of the company sample the game. Comments included:

* "It's like playing something completely new, similar to when I played Red & Green"
* "You don't even know the type of the Pokemon, so you're surprised at the skills"
* "There are only Pokemon that you've never seen, so it's fresh and new"

The impressions have been good, says Matsuda, but desiging the Pokemon has been tough. Still, the GameFreak graphics staff say that they're happy if players enjoy themselves.

I am not in denial, I have just seen no official source stating this and a single paragraph with no link to the original source isn't really convincing, as I said I want a link to any of the following, the interview where Nintendo/GameFreak confirmed it, an Issue of Coro Coro that confirms it, or an episode of Pokemon Sunday that confirmed it, they are the only trust able sources of info for Pokemon pre-launch.

I will actually be happy if this turns out to be true, as I am sick of Zubat and Geodude, and all the other Pokemon that are in every gen, instead of new Pokemon, but I still find it hard to believe without an official source.

Okay, this thread has really been taken off track. :\ The debate between whether or not there are any new pre-evolutions and/or evolutions isn't actually going anywhere right now. Not to mention we have a thread to discuss this information mentioned here and a thread to discuss the new Pokémon and info released in the Sept. CoroCoro here. Please use those instead, and seeing as this thread hasn't gotten very far I'm just going to put the lock on it.
