BW Rumors II

These are old, but let’s go over them anyways.  They seem to correspond with the last rumors that I posted, so I waited to see if Oha Suta aired any new footage on Friday.  It did.  Nothing new game-wise, just new footage.  Right now it isn’t available on YouTube or anything.  Because it DID show footage though I’ll go ahead and post these rumors up.  Remember not to believe them until we get confirmation.

Terephin

  • Dolphin Pokemon
  • Type: Water/Psychic
  • Abilities: Hydration or Soundproof
  • Attacks: Uproar, Water Gun, Confusion, and Sonar*
  • Appearance: Dolphin with two pearls rotating around it’s head
  • * New Attack: Sonar prevents lowering of accuracy (presumably for 5 turns)

Shirokkuma

  • Polar Bear Pokemon
  • Type: Ice/Fighting
  • Abilities: Anger Point or Snow Camouflage [Could also be ‘Snow Pocket’]
  • Attacks: Blizzard, Snow Blind*, Snowfall**,  Seismic Toss
  • *New Attack: Snow Blind can be used while the Snow weather effect is occurring, lowers opponents accuracy
  • **New Attack: Snowfall activates the Snow weather effect.  It lasts 5 turns and raises the power of Ice-type attacks

Heiguru

  • Honor Pokemon
  • Type: Normal/Flying
  • Abilities: Keen Eye or Invigorate
  • Attacks: Sand-Attack, Peck, Leer
  • Speculation: Could be related to Wargle just because of the similar name endings and their species of pokemon are very similar (Honor vs Valor).

Majissuka

  • Long Ear Pokemon
  • Type: Normal
  • Ability: Cute charm
  • Attacks: Body Slam, Heal Bell, Revealing Ears*, Take Down
  • Evolves from Tabunne with Moon Stone
  • *New Attack: Revealing Ears will tell you the next pokemon your opponent will switch to during a rotation battle

Alright, done with that!  I translated everything myself just to make sure there was nothing left out.  I didn’t want to just copy the work Sabonea Masukippa did either (who originally found it).

However there is not really any new information because I screwed up 🙁  Sorry guys no new dark frog pokemon xD

<3 pokejungle

ps- I am having a LOT of allergy problems ugh.

  1. The “hei” in “Heigle” is most likely soldier/troop.

    Plus “Majissuka” means like “OMG for realZ11!!?” If this turns out true it’d be hilarious lol.

    Can someone link me to the original Japanese post?
    I’d like to skim through it~ :3

  2. When you said “Sorry, No Dark Frog” I was like
    Wait Wut?

    but after viewing the context in some of these comments I think I get it. That woman’s blog just mentions her wondering about new dark/frog pokemon? Am I right?

    AND now onto other rumors.
    Telephin – Low degree of plausibility. Its name could have been come up with using Google translate. The typing is something we’ve had since Gen 1 (Which doesn’t add or subtract believability) Its design seems like something some fans would like (Although I’m not much for having things spinning around heads) but it’s also kind of random so it could be GF’s doing. I think that “Sonar” would obviously bypass Telephin’s Soundproof to allow the move to be used, or it is evidence of the fake.
    Shirokkuma – Unbelievable. Its name means “White Bear” ’nuff said. I’ve seen plenty of fakemon polar bears (Including Ice/Fighting ones) but lazy me hasn’t checked any names for similarity recently. Furthermore it comes packed with the whole “Snow” issue. True I’ve been annoyed at hail and wished it would snow, but I don’t know what to think of its purpose unless it is like “Non-damaging hail” and works on both Snow Cloak and Ice Body.
    Heigle – Plausible. This makes Wargle Gen V’s Fearow? (With Mamepato serving as the replacement Pidgey)
    Majissuka – Plausible. Tabunne means “Probably, right?”, Majissuka means “Are you for real?”…kinda. So I guess it could replace Mime Jr or Wobbuffet, unless of course we’re also saying goodbye to Jessie and James (doubt it.) However the inclusion of a move that (supposedly) actually predicts your opponent’s move? Well it can’t be true in multi-player. I believe that Tabunne will evolve, and I even believe this evolution’s name could be true (although I’ve seen it as the title for some J-Rock songs) but “Listen” (the most logical name I can think of for “Revealing Ears”) seems like a hoax so it could bring this one down. (Unless the rumor is only a partial fabrication, but I don’t even know if that happens)

    • The Dark frog part is a typo.
      It’s really translated into “I wonder what type of dark pokemon there are”
      She used “か”, instead of “が”
      And frog in japanese is かえる.It can also mean leave though.

    • Lots of Pokémon have really simple names so I wouldn’t rule Telephin or Shirokuma out just because of that. Teppouo (Remoraid) for example literally just means “gun fish” and Goukazaru (Infernape) means “Inferno ape” (In both languages lol)
      Some of them are even simpler like Lizard (Charmeleon) and Fire (Moltres).
      Can’t really say I understand how “would be liked by fans” is a problem but it’s true there’s many fakemon like Telly and Shirry.
      I don’t really see why snow is such a problem, it would most likely just be a non-damaging hail so you won’t get raped by the hail when climbing the snow mountains.
      Predicting could work if it waits with telling you until after your opponent has chosen their move. Otherwise it wouldn’t really work even against the computer though since passive damage (such as poison and weather) could affect the choice. At least if even the non-active Pokémon are affected by passive damage.

      By the way I’m not believing any of these until we get a confirmation, just wanted to point out some things.

      • Well it wouldn’t work over the DS’s current wireless battle mode, however since IR is to be included, perhaps it will work in a different way. On the turn after its use is the first time its effect will be usable, so I guess it must be a 5-turn move.

        The reason fan expectation is evidence of fraud is because if someone wants it to be true (or they’re just trolling) they’ll just say it is. GF tries to cater to our incessant demands but ultimately they decide what goes into the game and what doesn’t. (Not saying they’re 100% perfect either)

  3. I like Tabunne and can’t believe the name of it’s evolution is translated into “OMG LOL rly?”
    There’s a side that really likes this name and another side that really hates this name, So can’t really hope these rumors are real or not. But I hope that the Polar bear pokemon has something to do with Ursaring.

    Reply
    • This wouldn’t be the first time they’ve made a pokemon name like that though. It’s still quite possible to be real. Pokemon like Wobuffet, Wynaut, to some extent Mine.Jr and even Tabunne itself are examples of such Pokemon.

      • ahahahah isn’t whynaut like sonnano?! or sometin’ like that?

        OH!!!
        I JUST GOT WHY WHYNAUT IS CALLED WHYNAUT!! :DDD
        ahahah why not? bahahaha

        oh gamefreak you pun genuis. 😛

          • It apparently means buffet(Strike repeadly) and wobble. kinda like a punching bag. I got it from Bulbapedia.
            Anyone remember the Wobbuffet punching bag in pokemon channel?

            Oh yeah and about the Whynaut part.
            kinda seems weird that a “professional” company would use Majisukka as a name.

    • There are more possible ways of translating it. “Fo’ real!?” for example.

      It IS slangy but…it shouldn’t be ruled out of being possible in my opinion.

      Reply
      • I mean I do believe it can be true, just hard to swallow.
        I know they can do that kind of stuff, like in the japanese version the nugget is almost a reference to, well, nuts.The ones you kick.

        Reply
        • well i mean it’s not l;ike they haven’t done it in the past…but idk why they would have the evo of tabunne have their name be like”a stupid prhase when tabunne isn’t ma stupid phrase. xD

          well my japanese slang isn’t all that god like, but tabunne doesn’t mean anything slangy right kriff?

  4. this is off topic but i am still wondering how takuto got these legendary and what else does he have in his team?
    ash should of qualified to the finals not takuto 🙁

    Reply
    • The takuto thing was just a quick solution, they needed to end the season and they ¿came up? with that greaat idea. It sucks, but what can you expect from anime
      Ash shoud’ve lost in his battle against paul, at least it would have been more logical than “Heeeey, we have to finish this so why don`t we use hitler-with-pokemon??”,( yep, that’s what the writers said)

      And again, sorry if i made any english mistake (please tell me 😀 ), but i guess you can understand what I’m trying to say

  5. imo i think the rotation battle works like this

    CHOOSE A MOVE->CHOOSE THE POKEMON THAN WILL ROTATE ON THE NEXT TURN->YOUR ENEMY TURN

    revealing ears will work well now imho

    Reply
    • Sorry but it’s already been explained.
      It works like this:
      You choose whether or not to rotate, and your pokemon’s move.
      The rotation happens first, and then the game calculates speed to see which pokemon will go first.
      IF rotation battles use the IR function to constantly update the battle’s progress, then Listen (aka Revealing Ears) will probable be a 5-turn (ala safeguard) status move, effective after that turn.
      It seems like it could work, and it opens the door to other similar strategic moves.
      It also seems like another over-complicated gimmicky move like Chatter, so it’s not beyond GF’s doing.

    • It’s almost over. I’m helping my sister move into her dorm so I couldn’t post a stream up like usual 🙁 Kriff is reporting any news though

  6. There was nothing relevant on pokemon sunday, just that the head of the battle subway is called the subway master and that you can collect BP(7 as usual) and trade in for some goodies

  7. …It’s sad all of these Pokemon are rumors, they all sound awesome to me 🙁

    Well, it’s better than those ‘other’ Pokemon rumors that were quite…strange…. O.O (no, it’s not here in pokejungle, it’s from another site called 151chan)
