I know it’s been awhile since I posted some rumors, but I have dug up enough to warrant an entire post. :3 Remember, these are not to be considered anything other than fiction UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE. But until then we can discuss, hypothesize, and complain! Or… perhaps rejoice if something strikes our fancy? Oh and there is no Ganmii~
- UPD: Black City has a person you can pay to raise a Pokemon’s EVs (Thanks Sabonea Masukippa)
- UPD: White Forest has a person you can give berries to raise a Pokemon’s happiness (Thanks Sabonea Masukippa)
- Isshu Dex has 150 Pokemon in it, TOTAL pokemon w/ gen 5 is up to 647.
- UPD: I did the math, and with the 493 Pokemon, and assuming Zekrom is last in the pre-National Dex, there would be 143… so only 7 pokemon from previous generations show up in the Isshu Dex?! Or there could be some possible number jumbling, but it does look that there is a chance that *according to this rumor* Isshu will contain ALL NEW POKEMON.
- UPD2: As pointed out by Vinson, blue skY also mentioned that Turbo Blaze (Reshiram’s unique ability) will raise Sp Atk when fire type attacks are used, while Zekrom’s unique ability “Tera-Voltage increases its Atk when fire type moves are used. (Thanks Sabonea Masukippa)
- UPD: I neglected to point this out, but a special attack called “Gouka” (lit: Hellfire) that has a base damage of 100 and 80% accuracy and may cause burn (sp atk). Also a move called “Uzarai” which also has a base of 100 damage with 80% accuracy and may cause paralysis (phy atk). Took me a bit to translate them </apology>
A little more rumor about the Isshu Dex, some supposedly “leaked” info. End of the Pokedex (no pokemon names, just types):
- #146 Grass (Pokemon #632)
- #147 Poison (Pokemon #633)
- #148 Ground (Pokemon #634)
- #149 Dragon/Fire (RESHIRAM) (Pokemon #635)
- #150 Dragon/Electric (ZEKROM) (Pokemon #636)
- Next pokemon are unlisted in the ‘dex (similar to Rhyperior, Porygon-Z, etc in D/P) but are not previous generation pokemon. COULD be evolutions of older pokemon, pre-evos, OR legendaries… or just regular pokemon I suppose?
- Ice/Fighting (Pokemon #637)
- Fire/Dark [Houndoom evo? I hope so! Just popped into my mind because of type] (Pokemon #638)
- Ground/Bug (Pokemon #639)
- Poison/Dragon (Pokemon #640)
- Steel (Pokemon #641)
- Water (Pokemon #642)
- Fire (Pokemon #643)
- Dragon/Ice [<- This is 3rd legendary!!] (Pokemon #644)
- Normal/Ghost (Pokemon #645)
- Dragon (Pokemon #646)
- Dark/Psychic (Pokemon #647)
Most of today’s rumors are translated from blue skY, a blog which gained notereity in the Gen4 era when information was coming out and actually had quite a few rumors which turned out to be true. This is Gen5 though, totally different ballgame. Hoping they’re right though frankly, Dragon/Ice sounds cool. (Forgot Giratina wasn’t even in D/P Sinnoh Dex. My baaaaad)
<3 pokejungle
ps- Love how you guys audit my posts. Keeps me on my toes! NO GANMII. Untrue rumor unrelated to move ones.
@ozymandis Yup, so there’s some possibilities those new ones are also legendaries…
@Joaquin Well, maybe your right… because they have weakness and strength towards each other… and Ground/Bug are too powerful for the Fire/Dark Pokemon… Well, like I said before, there lies possibilities…
Sabonea Masukippa has made some accurate translations in Serebii:
TurboBlaze Special Attack rises when you use a fire type attack.
TeraVoltage Attack rises when you use an electric attack.
You can pay money in Black City [to someone] to have your Pokemon’s EVs raised.
In White Forest you can use Berries to raise the Happiness of your Pokemon.
Regarding Dex totals…
It’s possible that a bunch of the new Pokemon won’t actually be in the Isshu Dex, a la Diamond and Pearl. If we subtract some legendaries and (perhaps) new evos, that would leave room for a few more oldbies in the local dex.
If these are true it seems like Pokemon White got a raw deal with it’s White Forest person increasing happiness…..you can do that in so many other places. :/
Whereas Pokemon Black get’s someone who raises Ev’s? 🙁
@Sponge I agree with you. And also, in Black the cost is just money, which you can get in battles easily, but in White, the cost is berries, which you have to find yourself. That’s it, i’m getting Black!! The futuristic cities seems cool…. ^_^
@Tyranitar Trainer:
Your “Ice/Fire/Ground” triangle idea doesn’t work out. A triangle doesn’t just work in one direction. It works in the opposite direction with weaknesses as well. Hejiru has named all possible triangle combinations, so there is no point in trying to find more. =P
@ Peter: You’re asking for a water bear, and we may already have a Pokemon based around it. Rankurusu could very well be a tardigrade. It is cell-like. And both of its abilities show that it is very resilient to outside forces. Magic Guard and the new Dust Proof.
Also, if that is true about the EVs in Black and the happiness in White…. Well, that’s a bit of a crappy tradeoff, to be completely honest. Not only in that one raises EVs and one raises happiness, but also that the better one is only paid for by money, and the not as good gets paid for by berries. One sided much, Game Freak?
Ice/Fighting = Lord of mixed sweeping?
Fire/Dark = Houndoom evo would rock!
Normal/Ghost = lolwut?
Dark/Psychic = a lot of people would be let down if it was fake/sucks
So there ain’t gonna have Evolutions in the Game?
Oh, poop >:( theyre ruining white for me! first black gets cool cities,now evs!? its simply unfair! why downgrade white? if zekrom werent a beast id switch ;p
anywho…a part of me feels this is fake :p too many legends at end of dex. (unless this is ala DP)
Just pointing out that if Fire/Dark is the correct order for that Pokémon, it can’t be a Houndoom evolution due to the fact that Houndoom is Dark/Fire.
Normal/Ghost is going to be (if this is real) the big, orange-eared freak.
Nice catch, Bunny Raider. If this rumor happens to be real, that’s a great eye you have. 😛
If ‘V’, as the fandom has dubbed it, is the Normal/Ghost, I’ll be super happy. Normal/Ghost typing is so unique. I love it.
a normal ghost type…..*gets chills*
it would be awesome if the so called “V” was a normal/ghost type. :DD
@ Bay: how do the triangles Hejiru named work both ways? They don’t work in the opposite direction with weaknesses at all. Most cases they don’t even hit with neutral damage, so I’m confused as to what you mean with “working in both directions”.
Fire/Rock/Steel – Fire doesn’t beat Rock, Rock doesn’t beat Steel, and Steel doesn’t beat Fire. It only works one way with: Rock > Fire > Steel. No neutral.
Rock/Fighting/Flying – same here Rock doesn’t beat Fighting, Fighting doesn’t beat Flying and Flying doesn’t beat Rock. None hit for neutral here. One way: Rock > Flying > Fighting.
Grass/Poison/Ground – Same again only works Grass > Ground > Poison.
and of course, Grass/Fire/Water – same again Grass > Water > Fire. Not even neutral damage.
I see no way in which the triangles Hejiru gave work both ways.
Also:
Ice > Flying > Fighting
Ice > Ground > Fire
Ice > Ground > Steel
All work the same way as the ones above.
@dude Not exactly.
For example:
Ice > Flying > Fighting
Fighting isn´t effective against Flying, but Flying is neutral against Ice.
Lmao @ triangles
wait a normal ghost type what?!?!
@lellowAdventures seldom looks cool but it is not very good against reshiram, because reshirams fire moves are only at regular power (because of zekroms dragon) but, zekroms electric type attacks are at 1/4 power due to reshiram being dragon, and fire. Don’t believe me? Look it up!
to bad some of this might be fake. DDDX
Wait. Famitsu has CONFIRMED the abilities and signature moves of Reshiram and Zekrom and the guys who raise EVs and happiness with money and berries.
So, does this indirectly confirm the Pokedex stuff too?
@dude
They “work both ways” because
Fire is supereffective on Grass, and not very effective on Water.
Grass is supereffective on Water, and not very effective on Fire.
Water is supereffective on Fire, and not very effective on Grass.
Rock is supereffective on Flying, and not very effective on Fighting.
Flying is supereffective on Fighting, and not very effective on Rock.
Fighting is supereffective on Rock, and not very effective on Flying.
Fire is supereffective on Steel, and not very effective on Rock.
Steel is supereffective on Rock, and not very effective on Fire.
Rock is supereffective on Fire, and not very effective on Steel.
Grass is supereffective on Ground, and not very effective on Poison.
Ground is supereffective on Poison, and not very effective on Grass.
Poison is supereffective on Grass, and not very effective on Ground.
These four are the ONLY POSSIBLE TYPE TRIANGLES.

lol,normal ghost will be something like the cell pokemon revealed,like a plasmatic pokemon
plasmosth (plasma+ghost)
somebody inside of the plasma and the plasma can change at the pokemon will like a flying ditto than can pass through walls lol
@Hejiru: Being super effective in one direction, and not very effective in the other is not “working both ways”. If they were super effective both ways that would be “working both ways”. So make it clear what you’re saying next time. I don’t need more proof seen as you explained what you meant this time and it’s understandable.
Btw there’s no need for the capital letters: I don’t have eyesight problems, thanks.
Here’s hoping Poison-Dragon is Arbok’s evolution.
It could evolve into a basilisk, like many have speculated, and basilisks are almost dragon-like.
The upside of evolving old Pokemon: mediocre Pokemon become more playable
The downside: introduction of a bunch of expensive situational items you’ll need to trade to get the evolutions
When will the Fire Stone and Thunderstone get some love again? 🙁 Oh! Maybe Hihidaruma and Shimama will evolve with those stones? (Please let it happen)
I think the Fire-Ice-Ground trio will be the cave-dwelling trio. Fire-Dark will be in a coal mine. Ice-Fighting will be in the mountains, Ground-Bug will be in a giant tree.
@Grass-Ground-Poison trio: Legendary dryads? So far, we’ve had birds, beasts, golems, and faeries. Dryads would fit right in.
Steel = Mawile evolution?
Water = Golduck evolution?
Fire = Torkoal evolution?
