6th Gen [SO. MANY. SPOILERS.] X&Y New Photos Leaked!

[HaphazardAsylum]

yep a random unofficial announcement from some unknown person ....... seems legit to me. i find it hard to believe but there is only one way to know and we already mentioned it, it is to ignore those randoms unless GF comes out and officially announces that yes that is in fact what happened.

The reviewer didn't specify if this was offline trading or online trading. To me its just a fun way to trade. Im pretty sure we all end up with a lot of useless pokemon in our box or repeats, this way you don't have to release them and get a mystery pokemon in return.



I hope they don't implement those Pokemon Amie effects online. It could get very annoying.

i can somewhat see why they are doing it, with them always putting a big emphasis on bonds but if thats the case they should bump the AI a fair bit or give you the option so it is an actual challenge but yeah it should be banned some how competitively if itworks that way in online battles

Here is what the official Pokémon X & Y website says about it: Wonder Trade is a new form of Pokémon trading where you pick a Pokémon to offer and it will be instantly traded for another Pokémon offered by someone else around the world. The thrill of Wonder Trade is that you won't have any idea which Pokémon you'll get until it appears. Who knows? You might even find yourself getting a rare Pokémon that you never expected!

Mystery trades soud cool but will most likely be abused. I hope that status part of that rumor isn't true, that be pointless to have since all the pokemon would be invincible to them. Also for anyone who wants to see, here is the image sparking rumors that everything is fake:

If this is true, then I assume the beta versions were leaked with dummy models of the pokemon, for example the beta versions of all the new pokemon. This could also mean that we don't get those monstrosities of pokemon, binical and it's line

 

[Sabrewulf238]

I know I said I wouldn't be back but just to say about the bastion house, I hope we can level up our pokemon while battling. I really loved that about the treehollow in white 2.

You know...that may be true...as some game stores barely got their copies today...which is 5 days in advance...so it's possible that it indeed is fake...
If so then I'll be happy as it'll mean more new mons! Also if what we saw is the beta versions I wouldn't mind either as I liked some of the Pokemon we saw :3

But what about the reviewers? All online gaming industries such as IGN, Gamespot, Polygon etc have all officially published reviews about the games. I'm unsure whether that confirms anything but it must mean some copies of the game have been made available and shipped.

One thing sure is that no store in France has the game yet. I'm working in a french game shop and we're supposed to be delivered around Thursday

well if this leak rumour is true i doubt itd be hard to send the reliable reviewers the actual games while giving fake copies to shops also im sure there are huge restrictions and they had to sign nda's

Yeah but that's only to reviewers...there's proably not many of them going around as they only hand them out to proffesional reviewers which are trusted. Also as Nath said some don't have the game yet...and another member in the countdown thread said they just got them today...so why would Italy and Canada get them five days in advance while the rest of the world's retailers barely get them?

 

[Z25]

We already discussed that picture today, there was some kind of an argument ahah

All we can say about it is: let's wait for Saturday and we'll see by ourselves :)

I saw the debate, some good points were bought up.




@Demi-God Nero: I agree, i do not like binacle or barbacle




@Magmaruby and Aquasapphire: True, i even checked with my gamestop, they came in today, and honestly i wouldn't put it past gamefreak, it has been a great hype builder and an interesting publicity stunt if true.

It sure is an elaborate stunt if true...also if it is a test it wouldn't surprise me...there must be some way companies can test stores to see if they're reliable or not, especially if one is suspicious of them.

What would the point of faking it be?

Anyone who knew about the leaks was already going to purchase the game. Any buzz that was created would not have added many if any additional customers.

I could see it being fake if it hit major websites as news stories, but this targeted very specific and relatively small communities...

 

[Nath74K]

I've heard that North-American and European shops are reputed for releasing games earlier than they might do it. Sometimes I broke the release date (especially for xBox 360 games).
Maybe Nintendo and Game Freak wanted to test the "less reliable" shops, it is totally possible.

The fact it was small communities in Italy and Canada makes me think it's fake...also the major websites can post anything as they're resistricted from doing so...

yeah but what happens if they never realise and sell the fake copies with the real ones at release?

It'll only be the Canadian and Italian stores that got them...but then again most proably wouldn't notice until the games come out in the 12th...

Don't worry, if this rumor is true, Nintendo should have asked the games back, or the shops already have sent them back ahah

 

[Kerjo]

What if, the games the leakers have are kinda like a beta. Where the Pokemon we've seen may actually be true, but only this was their original concept or idea of that Pokemon and not all the features of the game are in?

If so then I can't wait for the actual games seeing how this "fake/beta" version has so many stuff by the sounds of people's comments...

I just want to see a male Delphox :(
