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
Is that PokeBeach image with Greninja fake at this point?
My gut’s telling me it is, that all of it is
Whoever this guy (or these people) are, they are either completely honest or deceptively false.
Not yet. There is another screenshot that is almost certainly fake though, based on fan art of the original screenshot.
You may as well assume so.
I see what you mean 😉
I want it to be fake….but wait till it’s proven fake. At the moment, it’s not confirmed to be real.
I’m expecting it to get a 10/10 on IGN.
And I hope it sells well.
Maybe I’ll finally stop hearing news on gtav aka ( the most over hyped game of all time )
Did it over-hype Halo? Cause that was a whole lotta hype.
Yes.
Oh my god, yes, and it’s ridiculous. It’s going to beat TLOU for game of the year and that pisses me off.
No fncking way! It better NOT!
The Last of Us was goooood! Although, the AI was a lil’ buggy.
Overall story was great. I never played, but watched walkthroughs and loved it. Ellie~! Joel~♥ Poor Tess! 🙁
Wasn;t halo 4 released last year? I think I remember it at the awards for 2012 not 2013 lol. BUT I do know from Amazon leaks that InJustice, Last of Us, and even Bioshock having GOTY editions 😀
Talking about GTA5.
Oh, soory miss ;P But yeah, even if GTA V is there, Last of US will be Game of the Year 2013 no doubt.
IMO I think big label sites will give this game a crappy score of 7 or less -cough-GameSpot-cough-.
7 is not crappy. 7 is great. Who the heck told you 7 was a crappy score…?
You know what’s a crappy score? A 3. Know what got that? Aliens.
Eww don’t remind me of my financial loss there with Aliens. True, I’ll be happy with a 7 as well. But knowing GameSpot they most likely will give a low score under that sweet 7 mark cause it “repeats the same formula”. I love that formula, if it ain’t broken, don’t fix it kind of deal imo.
They’ve given most pokemon game 8.0 or higher.. Black and Black 2 got 9s
no they didn’t
IGN gave b2 9.6
We are talking about GameSpot.
Precisely.
Well I wasn’t you commented on mine lol
You said “they”, what else could we assume since we were talking Gamespot.
They as in IGN.. :/
I can’t…
Uhh, I don’t know what you said…
What? I don’t get what you are saying…
In with the love and out with the anger my bros and siters, we love Pokemona nd each other. No flames on us, only to gameSpot bros, Chill, give my main scqeeze a break, let’s all hug, you too Dae. Also, how about a mega hug.
Its mostly b/c it had older pokemon and the World Tournament dude, they even said that in the review. Kinda sad when 2 things that make the game slightly good is what makes a review from a 6-9.5. BUT it does give me hope that X and Y will get a 9 from them for once 😉
Ign.. Is the bigger blogger/reviewer I wouldn’t go to gamespot
lol how about we just play what we love, and ignoor the crap that comes from them, we will be the verdict if its our Game of 2013 lol 😉
They gave B2/W2 a 7.5.
IGN is at least honest with Pokemon reviews, oh how I will miss Audrey, reminds me of my GF everytime lol. But I do hope the new reviewer is like her, and gives X and Y a 10 XP
It gave DuckTales Remastered a 3.5 for poor difficulty when you die and restart everything -.-
and ppl complain that games are too easy these days… THIS IS WHY!!!
They forgot the term Nintendo Hard.
Back in the n64 days there was some challenge, but I was 15 years younger then.
Does it have a password system? They don’t exist anymore but for an old arcade game they might have kept it.
Nintendo Hard means that limitations from older games increased the difficulty level. For example, being unable to code a save system throughout the game due to limitations of the developers’ capabilities.
This is a remastered edition and they just literally slapped HD graphics on it. I don’t blame the reviewers on this one, that’s shameful. They could have put in a save system.
If a 6 year old can;t pick it up and press a button to shoot and kill a guy, and cuss at him for doing the same, its a auto bad in some reviewers eyes sadly in this day and age. Sad to see some “gamers” are this.
I believe Duck Tales Remastered was a great game by Wayforeward, a 8.5/10 in my book, not a 3.5.
Definitely 8.5
Wat…the only reason I even care about this game was for Brentlefloss.
So many leaks, and they’re all garbage…
We need some real ones :/
Ok in the in game image of the character are they riding a poke or is one following them?!?!?!?
It’s a bike :p
i just came back, i was here before update 1 and left, so can anybody tell me if they’ve been confirmed? and the Chespin evo… is it real? and can someone give me the name (i can’t read it for the life of me)
Chespin evo is fake
thanks!!
Isn’t it curious that the sprite for the Froakie final evolution looks similar to the pose of Frogadier in this shot? 😮
Eh, not really, we know it’s meant to be ninjay, and that’s kind of a classic ninja pose, and the sharing of poses across Pokemon lines isn’t uncommon. There are other reasons to be suspicious of Graninja.
So many reasons. I honestly think it’s design just looks nothing like Frogadier.
What is the likelihood of the game only having 70 new Pokemon being true? Because if that’s the case, this generation would have the fewest new Pokemon out of all of them ‘-_-
5%
.5%
Add some zeroes in there.
lol Ass xD
I know! I typo’d. 🙁 Lol. But, I fixed it.
I prefer to not sexually assault numbers. That would be an Eight Crime
I’m laughing so hard. I’m howling here lol
XD
FlyLikeAGShep used Howl.
It was Super Funny!
😀
Howling like a Houndour? 😮
I promise you I don’t have ass on my mind.
Ok, wait I do, but not sexually. Ok, may–!
:S
XD
Freudian slip!
Don’t be ashamed, we all thinking about those.
.0000000000000005% -.- Your calculations are rather inaccurate.
Watch it becomes true.
trolololo
Precisely 0.007833%. Always trust a Xatu.
You rounded.
Round shmound.
Xatu Xa Xatu :3
1%. We already have like 40 pokemon revealed and you can work out at least 50 we have basically accounted for, and that means we have like 3/4ths of the Pokedex already revealed. That just seems completely infeasible to me.
Very unlikely. There’s already 41 Pokemon revealed, including Oorotto and excluding Mega Evolutions. We already know that about 9 of the revealed Pokemon still likely have evolutions yet to be revealed. The act would be completely unfeasible on Game Freak’s part and would just make them lose more money for the games.
What I’m really curious about, though, is how many unique move animations will each Pokemon have since the game is in 3D now? Will Charmander do Mega Kick differently than Hitmonlee? If you think about it, the possibilities seem endless 😮
I’m guessing a very bare minimum….
I don’t think the attack animations themselves change. Each pokemon has an unique way in how it attacks though.
I think each Pokemon will have separate animations for physical moves and special moves. Blaziken, for instance, kicked when it performed Blaze Kick. And when it performed Overheat, it kinda stuck its claws out and roared. There’ll probably be one more animation for the status screen. That’s probably, me thinks.
Here is what is bound to happen-
(3 Pokemon leaks and more in one day)
.
.
.
.
.
(10 Pokemon revealed the next day)
The more they assume. the more real leaks will appear, and the happier the community will get! I hate leaving and coming back and seeing 450 NEW COMMENTS when it is just gibberish and random conversations and has nothing to do w/ leaks XD
Last night I asked whether I should expect ten new Pokemon to be revealed today, rather sarcastically. NOW look what happened.
Wow, there were approximately 10 fakes/unconfirmed Pokemon revealed today. HOW WISE OF YOU (and that was the point of my comment, to reference that). 😀
Oh, well thanks for the reference! 😀
Yup! 😀
Ten???
Yep, those were his exact words. lol
Well, it was three, but the point is there were many rumors.
Too true gives people ample time to make their fakes in 24 hours lol
XD
hmm…chespin’s fnal evo looks alright
It’s confirmed fake
awwww
I love what Watch the Birdie from Neogaf has to say about these leaks:
“Greninja, Hawlucha, and Binacle, along with the overworld shot and the
picture of Quilladin and Emolga, were posted by one dude on PokeBeach
Forums in a short span of time. That’s why I think they’re authentic.
Usually leaks are one or two shots, and they’re usually just Pokemon in a
battle seen from the front or behind. We have multiple shots, such as
in a Status Screen, an overworld shot, and an overhead shot of two
existing Pokemon that’s not from an official source as far as I know.
All these people on /vp/ are taking advantage of a likely legitimate
leak and creating their own Fakemon (notice they never post more than
just a back/front shot of them in battle), or trying to play a reverse
con and convince everyone these were fake by faking more screenshots
using the originals as base.
It’s what happened with the Starter Evolutions in Gen V, we had people
claiming they made them…but in every situation, they never posted the
original images they photoshopped because they didn’t exist.
I’ve got a good eye for legitimate Pokemon I’d say, I was one of the few
championing Mewtwo Y when it leaked, and I think Greninja, Binacle, and
Hawlucha are authentic.”
He has a point…but I still don’t believe them until proven.
Just keep an optimistic view, and we’ll just see what happens.
I’m optimistic that these are fake xD
Awww, don’t you want these to be real?
not really…frokie evo had too many sharp triangles….it’s face no longer looks like a frog anymore….
Aww, I want it to be real, but it shouldn’t matter, we will eventually find out if they are real or not.
Yeah….I just hope it’s water/fighting…maybe I’ll get used to it
Water/Fighting is gonna be a great type!
If it’s fast and water/fighting….I won’t care about it’s design…I’ll use him regardless.
I thought it was said there There were different sources. One has Greninja and a Hawlucha, the other had Quilladin, Hawlucha, and Binacle. I don’t know where the overworld shots came from though
Who the hell knows! LMAO
It’s all just one big cluster f*ck
True facts…
Don’t these images look a little too familiar to our final evolution of Froakie?
Now that you mention it the pose is almost the exact same. Someone correct me if I’m wrong
i looked back and forth between the pic its exactly the same stance.
I’m not sure if this has been mentioned or talked about, but will we see animations for Abilities at all? Like when Blaze activates a Pokemon’s flame gets bigger or something.
My brain can’t take all these comments, I can’t keep up with them anymore!!!!!
What if I told you that all of these comments are all in your head? What if none of it actually exists?
*Puts on his sunglasses* Free your mind, man. FREE YOUR MIND!
Well I’d have a very intelligent mind about debugging fake Pokemon from real ones… x)
I’ve recently bought a wii u so all i need now is a FULL actual pokemon RPG to be announced and not a fighting game “pokken”
OR, Pokemon Snap 2 O.O
A full 3d HD pokemon game tho.. Imagine.
Never played snap.. :/
Ture, if its a Pokemon game, make it a sequel to XD lol
How about “Colosseum HD”? It could go along with R/S remakes! Money to be made, GF.
Or Rumble u.
Or Pokemon PUZZLE LEAGUE YAAAAAY
…or the TCG.
Did you hear about the most recent Masuda interview. He said, he would consider it, but GF would have to completely revamp it to make more interesting. It was sort of hinted that it was on the table and GF has been listening to the fanbase on this one a bit in response to his shutdown of the idea a few months prior.
I suspect a spiritual sequel then like maybe incorporate it with PokePark.
PokePark? 🙁
Unless you mean the graphics and scenery (which were actually pretty nice), then that would be fine. I just don’t want it to be too juvenile as far as gameplay and dialogue.
Sorry, I have just never liked pokepark.
yo what do you have on your Wii U btw?
AC3 and ZombieU and Pokemon Rumble.. That’s it :/ (damn auto correct)
Windwaker…?
AC3 is a good choice imo, if your not getting a PS4 or Xbox ONE, I would suggest the following as a owner as well: Batman Arkham City Armored Edition, Batman Arkham Origins, Rayman Legends, Legend of Zelda The Wind Waker HD, Lego City Undercover, Pikmin 3, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, and Assassin’s Creed 4.
“Pokken” was confirmed to not be a game. but a possible future look for Pokemon. There was an article on it here- http://www.examiner.com/article/pokemon-x-and-pokemon-y-director-responds-to-wii-u-game-rumors
Is Pokken like Tekken but with Pokemon? Because, quite frankly, I’d DEFINITELY pay for something like that!
with Blazi(Ken) and Luca(ryu)
That isn’t saying it isn’t going to be a game.
But you get what I mean.
Maybe.
Well, I just mean that it was confirmed to be a future look for Pokemon games and (now) that it COULD be a game. Does that clarify it a bit for ya? 😀
There’s no way that’s a game. They only made that short segment to show off what pokemon games could look like. Which, BTW, is not hard to do, game companies do it all the time (and most of the time are not played on consoles). They are completely focusing on XY right now.
Yes. That is (exactly, in a way) what I was saying. 😀
Yah.
smash bros???
Doesn’t count.. It’s not a pokemon game.
I’d like an MMO.
Suppose I better get some work done (night shifts) 🙁
Happy leakings!!! 😀
Laters bro!
Well I’m off, classes and tests at the university. Peace my brothers and sisters V!
So we possibly have our first Flying/Fighting mon? Seems Farfetch’d.
The only thing I dislike is its name.
I have to admit it is a bit wierd.
I like Luchawk better.
Things could get pretty Purugly in here…
Oh, it’s gonna get REAL STUNKY.
And then we’ll have a lot of people getting all KRABBY.
XD
(no comeback) 😀
Don’t believe any of it until confirmed.
He did say possibly, but yeah, it hasn’t been confirmed.
Nah, just making a pun. Even if it was true, I always thought Farfetch’d should get a Flying/Fighting evolution. Maybe it will.
Not the first… but ok.
that bird pokemon looks worst then stunfisk!!! and is that a pie with two trees in it????
barnacle
it looks worst then trubish!!! lol!
Trubbish is cute though 🙁
I have a question. Will Pokemon that we get from the GTS website for Black/White Black 2/White 2 be considered ‘hacked’ Pokemon or will I be able to trade them from my games to X & Y? I don’t know if they’d be legit =/ I didn’t give them moves that they couldn’t learn, though.
Most likely not….but I doubt hacked pokemon can make it to X and Y this gen….
if you mean pokegen, yes, they’re fake, but you may be able to transfer them from a real copy of B/W/2 without it screwing your save, but this isnt confirmed
The website I use is pokegts.us. I hope I am able to transfer them to X & Y >.< I have actual copies of B2/W2, and the Pokemon are sent to me from the website.
i wouldn’t risk sending it straight to X&Y, because it might brick your 3ds
Nope they won’t be able to transfer and will be qued as hacks. Better off just starting fresh like the rest of us.
Does anyone know what the name origin of Greninja be, because i have no idea.
Grenadier + Ninja
Or grenouille – the French word for frog + ninja
that also
Bare in mind that this game takes place in France, so it could possibly be that.
yes but many pokemon names have mixed origins not restricted to one interpretation
make sense now, still not so keen on the name, but that’s what nicknames are for
(still team Froakie)
I really hope that Greninja is fake because im not a fan of it. :/
same here! those leeks better be fake cause all of them are ugly specially that cheese cake with two trees inside it!
But the Golden Girls love cheesecake! 😮
it’s apparently a barnacle or something, but yeah… it’s hideous.
Neither am I. Too triangular….
Rather selfish reason, though I am eh on the design for it. I will accept it as real if it is. It isn’t that bad. I don’t really care if it is fake or not I m not going to be using it. I am using Fennekin and possibly a Chespin.
Hoping for anything is typically fueled through some sort of selfish reasoning.
True enough.
Its just the fact that his tongue replaced the bubbles. If the bubbles were there,i wwould be fine with it. And my plan was to choose Rookie from the beginning so i have to deal with what i get.
same here, I dont like the fact that it has no foam/bubbles simce that is the whole point of Froakie and Frogadier. I also dislike his long tounge, no offense Lickilicky
Haha its cool.
I bet that the Mega Evolution for Ninetales will be the kyuubi from Naruto :3 Or even Kyuubimon from Digimon! 😮
thats impossible because nine tails is kyuubimon except for the color of its fur, and nine tail uses will o wisp which is similar to those blue flames kyuubimon uses!
http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs39/i/2008/331/d/a/Demon_Lord_Ninetails_by_akelataka.jpg
is that nine tails and smeargle using the dna splicers? XD!
That’s Ninetails from Okami! She can draw magical effects just as you can. Her boss battle was hard as balls but one of the most fun.
You should play Okami if you haven’t. Beautiful game.
sounds interesting but i do know that kyubimons ultimate evo (taomon)uses a gigantismo paintbrush which it uses to create spells and stuff, but really?! it does looks strong and scary cause eof the faces on its tail
I love Okami!
Guys just be aware that these rumors (all rumors actually) could turn out like this one:
http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=193851
😉
Oh wow… I’ve never even seen that…
Me too! I just found about it now.
Pokemon Rainbow sounds kinda nice actually.
It really does. It’d make a great Wii U game from the sound of it.
Yeah, it would be a cute game. Maybe a new pokemon snap?
anyone having problems going on 4ch?
Most people with problems go on 4ch.
…also yes it’s broke. D=
I’m starting to like these pokemon. Although I hope the Greninja is fake; mainly because I want the final forms to be a surprise. And as a heads up, I will not be on here (I’ll try not to anyway) on the 12th. Too many spoilers and I won’t have my copy yet.
D:!!!!!!
Ooh! Clefable!
Siii I love clefable!
I love the design. I hope there’s a Mega for it.
Mee Too!!!!!!!!!!
Clefairy was the originally planned partner for Ash. Why they changed, I don’t know. I read why somewhere but I don’t remember.
I would have hated that then people would have jumped on the clefairy bandwagon like pikachu!
Oh yeah of course.
Apparently the original pocket monster manga had a very obnoxious and vulgary Clefairy. They wanted to seperate from the stigma.
The pic says it all:
http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/1064/1754de7c963625641307036.jpg
Hah didn’t think Japan cared about vulgarity….did you know in that manga Pokemon could evolve and de-evolve at will? And could talk…lolz
Never knew that! Strange!”It is very vulgar and likes to do ‘sick’ things to attract attention”- Bulbapedia
And, it’s Japanese name is pippi, XD
Pikachu is a better mascot for marketing reasons.
I am totally gonna let myself be spoiled! I really want Fennekin’s final evolution to be a secret since that will be my first starter. Generally, a part of me just doesn’t want any more new pokemon to be revealed, COME ON ITS JUST 12 MORE DAYS!, and the other part is like, can’t resist, must have leaks and reveals.
That’s how I am! But after BW were completely ruined for me, I want to make up for that. However it will be hard not to check. Hopefully the bands will be interesting enough to keep me from checking.
