6th Gen The X/Y Rumors Thread!

[metalhand]

No no 75% true!Serebii still doesnt have it as false.
But can someone explain what exactly was the whole admitting thing?
From what i understood some random girl said that it was hers and that they were fake???

In his site where he posted all the rumors, the guy admitted that it all was fake.

Facepalm...that guy was a different guy...well actually I beleive it was a girl...

Here's what she said:
"In case you haven't noticed by now, I'm not the original leaker from pokebeach last night.

Why did I do this? It started off as just a small social experiment to see what people would say but then the website went viral and was on every freaking pokemon forum I could find, so I knew I had something people wanted, fake or not. I figured if people were going to talk about it, I would give you the information. I quickly made up a whole bunch of stuff off the top of my head and continued to add to the list throughout the day.

How did I get my hands on the case sleeves? Easy, actualy. I have a friend who works at a EB Games (Canada's equivalent of GameStop) who let me know when the official game sleeves came in to the store. They put one copy of each sleeve off to the side for me and I put them into my game cases. Please note that these are the official Canadian game sleeves (which is why they have the French version included and advertised on the box art). I'm pretty sure you could go into your local game store and ask for your region's version of it.

Please note that I do apologize for leading you guys on, as I stated earlier, I only meant to see what you would all say for a while, but then this whole thing exploded and it got out of hand. I am sorry. I do hope you enjoy the games when they come out and I hope you did still enjoy talking about the fake pokemon and concepts I presented, even though they were fake. I could have been a complete jerk and just not revealed that I was trolling you, but I didn't. I felt bad for all of you who were making new teams with these new Pokemon and I didn't want you to get disappointed when you opened the games and found that they didn't exist.

Team Fennekin and Team Froakie!"

Well... I see that I was wrong.
But still-nothing the original guy(or girl, I got confused) said has been proven, so its still far from being "75% real"

 

[GeckoPutt]

Interestingly enough, whilst browsing through the numerous dungeons of 4chan *cough*, I came across this which made me even more excited. I like the new Pokémon Center design inside and out! You can also clearly see the new Dressing Room feature that all Pokémon Centers have now on the left-hand side of the counter - with the PokéMart continuing to be a part of the Pokémon Center shown on the the right-hand side. Exciting stuff! :D

If anyone is interested, here's the link of where it came from: ORIGINAL LINK​

Serebii doesnt call it false.Kinda surprising since it has been a day.

So so far we have the following Rumors:
Mega Scizor
The whole 75% is true rumor
The pokemon japanese names which are correct
Clefairy fairy type
Our friendly rival gives us its fully evolved starter.

Regarding Mega Scizor, that its actually very VERY possible, the rumor just went under the radar and people didn't paid it to much mind. What people gotta realize is that the guy who says Scizor is getting a Mega was the guy who leak the full B/W dex last gen and leaked Fairy Type. This guy is legit.

His direct quote about Mega Scizor was this.

"Voy a ser bueno y os digo que Scizor es otro de los Pokémon que tendrá Megaevolución. Aunque ya os he dicho que serán muchos los Pokémon que la tenga."

for our non Spanish speaking friends he said this.

"I'm going to be kind and tell you that Scizor is one of the other Pokemon getting Mega Evolution, although a lot more Pokemon are going to get Mega forms."

for our non Spanish speaking friends he said this.

 

[OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire]

Wow something that actually looks true from 4Chan?
Well the Pokécenter looks nice both in and out :3

 

[Hiatus]

If Scizor is indeed getting a Mega form, I would like to see its Attack raised at the expense of one of its defensive stats (preferably Special Defense). Either that, or they could sacrifice its Speed stat. Scizor is already quite slow, so people never use it for its Speed. If it became any slower, I'm sure it wouldn't affect anybody. As far as the design is concerned... I'm not really sure how that would turn out. xD Maybe it would have bigger wings?

 

[iRyahn]

Well it's been confirmed that reviewers have been given copies of X and Y recently.

Also a Japanese reviewer has stated the Gym types will be "Bug, Rock, Fighting, Grass, Electric, Fairy, Psychic, Ice." Take it with a grain of salt, but now that the games are out any rumors I hear I will be more inclined to be believe.

If that's true then there's going to be no Dark gym yet again :( Tbh though I wouldn't be surprised...I had a feeling it'll happen yet again...
Also if those types are in order then we'll proably not fight Clemont when we first arrive in Lumiose city (if he's that city's gym leader like speculated).

 

[MarinoKadame]

How many time we got an Electric, Rock and Ice gym already ?

 

[OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire]

5 for electric counting this one ( Surge, Wattson, Volkner,Elesa, and proably Clemont). 4 for Rock (Brock,Roxanne, Roark, and proably Grant), and 4 Ice (Pryce, Candice, Brycen, and now this one). And 0 Dark gym leaders...
For fighting it's 4 (Chuck, Brawly, Maylene, and this new one)...Psychic it's 3 (Sabrina, Liza-Tate's gym, and this person). That's if they're true...

Where's my Fire Gym Leader? >:( Still is kinda weird for reviewers to leak stuff from unreleased games, kinda risky don't ya think?

I'm ok with the Psychic and Fairy Gyms tho.

 

[Hiatus]

Lots of new dark-type Pokémon are being introduced in this gen, so in my opinion, this would be the perfect opportunity for them to finally give us a dark gym leader. We also need a steel-type gym leader, if possible. The last time we've had a steel gym was in generation four, I think, which was a long time ago. d:

I found these rumors while scrolling down Pokejungle's comments on the reviewers having received their copies, supposedly this is from an Italian lady who got the games early:
"My review for Pokemon X and Y is coming out on October 4th and I just got my review copy in today. Im not allowed to post pictures of the final evolutions but I will be posting shots of in-game, maybe a few new Pokemon, I work for an Italian gaming website."
>-The names of the final evolutions are Frogue, Chesknight, and Kyubixen
>-First five gyms are Bug, Fairy, Electric, Fighting, Steel,
>-Alexa is a reporter from Lumiose City who will appear often in bustling cities to do reports on you and will battle you afterwards, the battles can be seen on big screens in Lumiose City
>-Theres a new bird Pokemon named Aquerial who is a phoenix with soaked wings and is Water/Flying
>-There's a new Pokemon named Koadly who is a small bear/koala
and is Fairy type
>-There's a new Pokemon named Gorem who is Ground/Grass and can learn the move Wood Hammer
>-Professor Sycamore and Master Calix, an old man in Shalour City, are both learning about Mega Pokemon and Master Calix gives you a level 20 Riolu holding a Lucarionite to train
>-Theres a Gym Leader with a blue jacket and yellow hair who you have to escort to another Gym Leader with gems in his hair. They're supposed to be best friends and the Gym Leader with gems closes his gym down for the time being while he's out
>-A boy named Aero owns a Pikachu and claims to have seen you in one of his dreams
>I'll be posting more screenshots in my forum thread tomorrow but I can't post anything starter evolution related"

Wow this set of rumors is interesting. I remember someone speculated the name "Chesknight" for Chespin's final evo and while it seems a bit generic I still think the name's cool. All those names are pretty awesome I have to say.

"Gym Leader with gems in his hair", that was probably referring to Grant since he fits that description. Also, this probably means Clemont might be the third Gym Leader battled while Korrina will be the fourth because going by their badges as seen in screenshots, they look like Electric and Fighting specialists respectively.

And a koala Pokemon? About time we got another unused animal made into a Pokemon, and it's a Fairy-type? Kinda interesting but I wonder how well it'll appeal to those Australian fans. And that Water/Flying bird seems interesting, a phoenix I guess but I'm hoping its design will look good despite the fact we've had loads of Water/Flying Pokemon now, it's like a type combination that always seems to get a new Pokemon every gen.

And that Gorem thing looks like it'll be cool, but the name sounds too similar to Golem plus it's almost looking like a pseudo-Torterra to me, since it shares Torterra's type combination and learns Wood Hammer.

I knew that the final evo starters did have to be kept secret until game release.

Ill reserve my judgement until she posts these alleged screenshots. Could you post a link to the thread Magmaruby?

Oh how I love and hate rumours! On one hand, I get excited and want to believe them, on the other, these people are getting awfully good at making things up, so I have to take them with a grain of salt. I don't see how Chesknight would be a grass/dark type... Since knights are usually seen as something good and dark types are more sinister. Perhaps he will be grass/steel?

 

[MarinoKadame]

Kyubixen is kind of poorly chosen actually. Frogue sound like Rogue and Chestknight is Knight, while Kyubixen have nothing to do about Mage or Wizard.

You know, I think a Grass/Steel typing would be fitting. It'd be like a Ferrothorn in some way and have good defenses, but I'd see it more offensive-focused just to set it apart.
