News: [UPDATED] 7 New Pokémon Leaked For Pokémon Sun & Moon

Xander Olivieri said:
Bruxish seems to come with another Anti-Meta ability just like Yungoos and Nekkoala. Her ability blocked both Quick Attack and Fake Out so it appears to kill Priority moves.

I wonder how this will affect Pokemon like Kelfki and Galewing Talonflame who relied on giving Priority effects to specific attacks.

Depends on whether it actually has decent stats. If it's stats are decent it could be quite nice in VGC where priority, fakeout in particular, is really common.

That was my point, haha. I was saying to people that they weren't fake from the start (except when I messed with smocks, of course). :V

It was when it was shown Serebii posted them on their site that it was deemed to be legit. The leaks did appear on 4chan as well, but maybe that was after Serebii posted them.

It being on Serebii =/= it being real, haha. They've posted plenty of fake leaks before. But I do agree they're usually pretty credible. Pretty sure it was 4chan that leaked them, however.

4chan got it from Youtube, so Youtube leaked it and 4chan are trying to use this as a chance to piss off Serebii, which if you have half a brain, you'd still see that they aren't the leakers. They just passed the leak from the original source. They can be credited as much as Serebii, Pokejungle, or any Pokemon news site as they are just regurgitating the information, but it didn't originate from 4chan. None of the actual leaks to the very best of my knowledge have ever been straight from 4chan.

4chan is like Wikipedia. You can use it to find a source, but it will never be a credible source itself.
 
I feel like the videos pretty much confirmed the leaks. The level of detail in them was too legit. Things like the backgrounds, the move and ability animations, the shadows and the camera angles. Much more than XYORAS model hacks can do right now.
 
So that takes the total number of new Pokemon so far to about 29/30. The majority of them look great, I just hope that Drampa gets some sort of evolution because I really can't warm to it right now!
 
I love these guys! (even the fish which people don't seem to like, water/psychic is interesting I don't think we've seen that in a while.)

Especially the dragon guy, he reminds me of some wise dragon that would appear in an asian themed Disney movie. Could be a potential team member for sure.

Dragon made my team without any questions~

Assuming no type changes are made, we're just adding Fighting to the small list of weaknesses and a Ghost immunity so it won't be hard to just use him without worrying about counters.
 
Grampa Drampa and Bruxish are kinda...ugly. I'm sure they'll grow on me eventually, particularly Grampa after seeing it in action.

I like Vikavolt and Tapukoko's designs though. Vikavolt's pincers (particularly how it's incorporated into the head) and Tapukoko's shell thing (the patterns and how they mimic a bird's head when closed) are very nicely designed.
 
Most of these are pretty nice. I'm not a huge fan of the dragon though.

But omg, Bruxish is literally the most stupid thing ever to be produced by Gamefreak. It looks so stupid, I don't really want something like that in my box (even though I'll have to if I want a living dex in Sun and Moon too).

That's certainly one thing I'll never ever shiny hunt.
 
Drampa is defiantly my new favorite dragon type. I like the others too, especially the hedgehog steel type pikaclone.
 
Hate being the buzzkill all the time but I really don't like many of these new Pokemon. Hopefully they grow on me. That fish is hideous.
 
I find it amusing how Bruxish is being massively hated for its looks. It seems to be the first 7th Gen Pokemon whose design is being massively hated solely for looking so ugly, but then again there's always that one ugly Pokemon from every new generation that gets universal bashing so maybe people will grow to love it when that bashing phase is over.

Anyways, loved how the trailer also revealed the new evolution scene. It looks damn gorgeous.

I like her somewhat. She creeps me the hell out, but I still like her XD

I'll probably use her if she has some awesome stats so I can wreck things with her ability.
 
I love all these new Pokémon omg. Drampa is probably my favourite right now, it just has the right amount of quirkiness and loveability hahaha. I'm also loving all the new Electric-types we're getting, and the amount of new type combinations we're getting in general. Definitely seeing a strong tropical/Hawaiian vibe with a lot of the Pokémon we've seen, which is super cool.

Kinda reminds me of Stunfisk during BW's pre-release. And now look at it, everyone loves that thing.
 
Personally I'm digging into the evolved form of the newly introduced Bug/Electric mon (Kuwaganon), it looks sleek and cool, and the new evolution scene amps that up too! Some others like Aburi (the small yellowy thing) gains my spotlight as well! Some other Pokémon designs may look quirky, but I think I'll get used to it.
 
Bruxish is my favorite! Pokemon with unique designs have always been a huge hit for myself. Water/Psychic is a really cool typing as well. I can't wait to get some more information on this little guy. As for the others, I find them all to be pretty good! The regional Pikachu is a step up from the past few.
 
I really like that Vikavolt or whatever the electric bug is callled. I saw those leaks on reddit and thought they were fake, because Drampa looked a little off to me, and that Jynx fish.
