These are not necessarily real images, their authenticity has not been established. Please do NOT treat this as a news post, instead enjoy commenting & speculating. We will update you if any details come out to (dis)prove any of this.
We’ve marked the main image warning of Pokémon X & Y spoilers so we won’t be hiding images in these posts.
The pictures above purport to be from a review copy of Pokémon X. As you can see, they claim that this is the final evolution of Froakie, Greninja, and a new Flying/Fighting-type Pokémon called Hawlucha. The latter Pokémon also has a new Fighting-type attack called Flying Press.
UPD2: A new image has surfaced claiming to show the final evolution of Chespin from behind. This is from a different person than the person who posted Greninja & Hawlucha. UPD: Confirmed fake
The poster also mentioned that XP is also much easier to earn and that entire parties will get some from battles with the use of EXP Share, a key item found early in the game. He also mentioned that XY only introduce around 70 new Pokémon. He also said that there barely is any endgame, with you only being able to catch Mewtwo and the Z legendary.
UPD1: A new Pokémon has supposedly been photographed. No other details are currently known. Remember, we do not know if these Pokémon are real or fake, so please don’t consider them as either until they are proven one or the other.
UPD3: We broke the site record for most visits in one day! Also, be wary of all the ‘leaks’ out there, there are so much (blatant) fakes going around that the legit leaks may get lost in it!
Looking forward to reading your comments!

Featured Thread: X/Y team From now and then by MacSkiddo
Really hope this is fake! I dont want Froakie to evolve into that!
I hope its fake and it probably is because it looks horrible.
Btw is this the same person who leaked the pokemon center?
1. Why would gamefreak only make 70 pokemon when they KNOW people are expecting around 140-150,
2. He’s claiming that exp is easier to gain due to the exp share… IT’S ALREADY CONFIRMED! Trying to pass off confirmed things as “Leaks”
3. They’re bad quality, if he really was playing the game then he obviously had the time and effort to get a video or… heck… A GOOD PICTURE?
There will be more pokemon than any other gen this has already been confirmed
No, what has been confirmed is that there will be more Pokémon available in the game than in any other Gen. What they said is that this is the first time you’ll be able to catch every Pokémon without having to transfer from previous games.
My main issue is that fact that froakie v3’s typing isn’t revealed. It’s such a hot topic, you’d think he’d include it in the images, especially since he revealed that fly/fight guy.
I don’t want this to be real, but it looks so legit especially the one with hawlucha in battle and greninja’s synopsis page.
WHAT?!?!?! Surely if there’s 3 different pokedexes, there would be more that 70 new pokemon!!!!
but you have to think of all the national Pokemon though
maybe they mean 70 new pokemon per pokedex!
This is slightly off topic but I since this is a speculation page maybe it isn’t too bad? I have a theory about team Flare’s ultimate goal. But first, let’s see what we know about their intentions:
1) They are collecting money by selling Pokemon and fossils
2) They are trying to create a beautiful world
I’m sure we’ve all heard the saying “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder”. So what if their idea of beauty is a non-individual dystopia? I couldn’t think of the word, but where everything is the same and there is no expression. I believe this is probable because:
1) Life and Death are a cycle of change, and could just as easily represent different fashions and preferences going out of style.
2) As we already know, X and Y are going to feature a lot of customization, for example Character Customization and grooming Furfrou. This would be good in contrast to the evil team’s goal.
3) If the Pokebeach rumors are correct, this team will appear on TV in the beginning of the game (and probably later). This means Team Flare is going to use propaganda to encourage people to be like them and dress like them.
This is just my hypothesis. I have no idea whether it will happen or not. I have to apologize, I had more to write but it’s morning so my brain is mush. I’d be suprised if this even made sense. Anywho what do you guys think?
Those are some great ideas 🙂
Thank You 🙂
Do you think they will use Inkay and Malmar
I actually think they may use meowsticks since they look like fashionable Pokemon
I could see that happening! It’d be so cool. But maybe some of the scientists or other “bosses” use them?
If I had to guess, I’d say yes. Isn’t it part of Malamar’s description that it is often used for nefarious means? Or maybe there is another evil team??? Dun Dun Dunnn
Team Rocket
YEESSSSSS!!! It would be awesome to have them come back! Then the protagonist would be stuck in the middle of a conflict like in Gen. 3!
I Love it! Where do xerneas and Yyveltal come into play though?
Thank You! To be honest, I’m still working on that part, but so far I’d say they are going to use Yveltal to wipe out the cities and fashion centers, etc. Then, the player will be asked to catch, or beg for the help of Xerneas. Then battle Yveltal as it is about to destroy uniqueness and expression! But that’s probably only for X and as I said earlier I’m still working on it. I’ll be sure to post when I’ve thought it out! Thank you again!
Ahah this is going to be the B/W starters all over again… Personally I think the images may be legit but the written information is questionable. Although their has been an emphasis on past pokemon in trailers/interviews along with giving past pokemon the mega treatment so I wouldn’t be surprised if there were only around 70 new pokemon in the region pokedex but along with A LOT of old pokemon too (Which would explain why the dex is split)
Hawlucha?! I know these are fake I saw “Hawlucha” around the time of the july coro-coro release and was dumb enough to believe that they were real I was looking under fan-made Fennekin evolutions and it was so odd looking. Also releasing 70 pokemon? This has to be a fraud cause not counting mega evos they’ve released 40 pokemon over half this is impossible cause they released 31 pokemon before Black and White was released and that gen had 156 new pokemon.
I honestly don’t believe any of that. 70 Pokémon is just a nope. Almost non-existent endgame? Masuda said it would be the most complete Pokémon game ever, I really don’t think he would miss something as important as the endgame. The EXP Share thing is confirmed, though, and the earning Exp more easily is too.
Also, the screencaps are very odd. The bird has five feathers on its wings on the first screenshot (and they are pointy) and only four on the second screenshot (and they are rounded).
Not buying this one.
Not to mention Masuda also mentioned a massive endgame in an interview. I’ll try to find a source, but this pretty much points out how false the rumors are.
please find this source, i’ve been looking for it all night and can’t find it 🙁
Maybe the bird has different wings for each different Hawchula, like a Spinda type of deal.
I think the images are real, but the text is completely bullcrap.
Please explain it’s fakeness, I want the flaws up front so we can put this thing to rest
>removing the bubbles
>70 new pokemon
>no end game
That should really be enough
70 new Pokemon? Let’s get serious here.
Masuda said at one point that there will be more pokemon in Kalos than ever before
But it could be Pokemon from different generations. And I may be wrong but wasn’t it confirmed that there will be more wild Pokemon in each area? Which I would assume means trying to have almost all the ‘mons available in the game.
Barely any endgame? Noooo! Please tell me this is some kind of sick joke.
I thought there was a guide book to the endgame.
I know right!? I also read somewhere (can’t remember where) that there would be tons of post game content in X and Y, but it would only be in the Kalos region.
With 40 pokemon already revealed, and at least 10 others being evos which we can predict happening ( starters. Espurr, helioptile, skrelp, clauncher, bunnelby, spritzer,swirlix), that leaves 20 completely unique pokemon left (including supposedly Hawlucha, which I actually like) to discover. Not happening. Gamefreak don’t actively hate the fanbase and aren’t suicidal. This person just knows how to make pokefans truly rage. Don’t entertain this troll. I mean, he even added that “no endgame” crap as a sick bonus.
Greninja looks cool. I doubt there is only 70 pokemon, they said 5th gen was going to be the shortest and they introduced more than 70. “barely is any endgame” is not believable as most pokemon games gave us alot to do post game. The bird pokemon looks fan made.
Definitely fake. There just CAN’T be only 70 Pokémon, let alone less than 100. And no endgame? You HAVE to be kidding me.
This ‘Froakie evolution’ maybe in its shiny form and its neck thing and skin are different colours maybe?
Had they gone with a bubble scarf instead of a tounge, said there was a alot to do post game, stated that there are around 113 new pokemon excluding the ones shown and their evolutions then it would have been more believable.
This is off topic but does anyone else think that Ash aand Serena will get a meowstick.
I think ash may get the female
I know these are probably not true, but isn’t there another rumour saying that the entire pokedex will be in the game….. this would make more sense if this was true.
I think greninja looks a little to cubic for its last design, but what do I know.
Did you know someone tried to make a 3ds emulator
I guessing they didn’t succeed
Trust me that thing glitches alot don’t know why they would try to make one. Which means that we might not get Pokemon X and Y rom hack.
meh I’ve got a 3ds already
I hope these are fake because greninja is ugly AF. It’s head just randomly turns into a triangle. And 70 pokemon? Yeah right. There’s no stinking way there is any less than 100. I would only believe that crap if every single pokemon got megaevolutions
If this is true. I don’t know it’s ridiculous.Why would they do this after how much hype this has been getting
Geninja looks bad with the pink “tounge” thing! The bird looks weird. Also, the EXP Share changes back to the EXP All, I wonder why they didn’t use that. 70 pokemon in Kalos. Wasn’t thy a rumor before that was fake. Pokemon already said 100+ new pokemon. If it was that the Kalos would hav a small amount of pokemon. Also, I think pokemon as learned from there mistakes about the endgame of pokemon! I’m sure we’re going to have a good one! Hopefully this is all fake!
