It’s already been announced for a while, but I’ll use this opportunity to give you a friendly reminder that a brand new Nintendo Direct is set to air tomorrow. Nintendo have said they will ‘provide updates on upcoming 3DS and Wii U games launching this year’. This means you don’t have to go expecting new Smash Bros details or Mario Kart, but you never know with Nintendo. There is a possibility that they will give us a new English XY trailer, hopefully with new footage and a Pokémon reveal or two (Orot please?).
As of now, we will not cover it live, but rather provide a write-up an hour after the Nintendo Direct has aired. If any Pokémon news breaks however, we will bring you the news as fast as we can. International times are the following (with countries listed rather than confusing time zones):
7 am Pacific, 10 am Eastern, 3 pm United Kingdom, 4 pm Mainland Europe, 11 pm Japan time.
Note: 01/10 uses the correct formatting for dates and is as such October 1st and not January 10th.
In addition, continuing the debate about our comment policy after the site’s activity has boomed, some people think we were too strict enforcing our new Community Guidelines. I shall now provide some further clarification on them and introduce some slight change to make it easier for everyone.
First of all, you most likely know the comment activity has grown a lot. Where we barely got 100 comments on uninteresting two years ago, such things get 1500+ comments nowadays. This poses a few problems. Where those 100 comments were usually meaningful additions, a huge part of those 1500 were borderline spammy. Also, whenever people started talking off-topic, the thread usually derailed into everything but the topic they should discuss. It’s sad to see a Dae asks becoming a ask-everyone-everything, because that was never the purpose of Dae asks.
Naturally, we had to enforce some kind of guidelines. I’m normally against such things, because I don’t believe in an overly abusive police state. Yet, you guys showed me you could not behave without a guiding moderator. I had to unfortunately resort to threatening people with bans so they could calm down. Some people complained it was weird that people could get banned for talking off-topic, and I have to agree it is something I would rather not do. However, you should also keep in mind that the only people I’ve banned were annoying and verbally offensive trolls. I also believe we should be a bit more forgiving in the future, but at the same time enforce some slightly stricter regulation against pure spam. Therefore I have proposed the following:
Is the article a news article? Go ahead, just comment whatever you want. However, refrain from posting spam (you should at least put 5 seconds of effort into your comment). This includes short comments like ‘XD’, image captions (memes) that have nothing to do with Pokémon and things that are better said in general chat (I’m going to bed now). Ignore the trolls, and if something goes on a spam rampage, hit me up here so I can sort it out. Also, if you are a leaker, please provide some proof, and know it’s not hard for me to know what your real account is.
Is the article an opinion piece, or does it ask for relevant opinions? Please try to stay on-topic. Off-topic posts will get deleted if there’s a chance the thread could derail. However, no bans will be issued unless you persevere in posting irrelevant comments. Did some important news leak, like Hoenn remakes or X2 & Y2 or a totally new Pokémon, that’s totally fine to put it in there. If you really want to discuss something else, go to our forums, the latest news article at hand or just wait for a new one to arrive (there will be always some sort of news, and I’m sure you won’t die if you don’t know immediately which starters everyone is going to pick).
If you still have some remarks or something else you want to discuss, just hit me up in the comments. My job is mostly to talk with you guys, and listening to our readers is also a vital part of the site. Remember, we are Pokejungle.net, which means we really try to be a network or community where everyone is free to give their opinion.
~Daedardus~
I just really want them to announce another mega-evolution. Like, I would really appreciate it if froslass got a mega-evolution, because it’s one of my all time favorite pokemon. Like this: http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/259/8/e/froslass_mega___fan_art_by_steelbug-d6mmp2m.jpg This isn’t my favorite, but I would still like one.
Doesn’t look very different but I like it!
Well I’ll be able to watch the 1st 5 minutes seeing as my bus comes for me at 7:05…………I wish I could stay home!!!! DX Anyway I’ll just watch the recap here…
Or. You can watch it on Youtube! Nintendo uploads all Directs on Youtube! ;D
Oh right *facepalms Duh!!
But I’ll still come here to show my support of this Wonderful Website 😀
Annoyingly, Tuesday is the only day of the week that I have class at 10 am… I’ll see it two hours later, unfortunately.
Just wondering, what do you mean by pokejungle’s competitors who use their site to boost their own ego? are you talking about places like serebii and pokebeach? can you please elaborate on what they have done wrong? And I really don’t like to see other fan sites as “competitors”, but rather just other fan sites.
Yeah, why add a judgemental invective? Other fansites just want to share passion for pokemon just like this site, and I don’t see how doing things differently from here (no comment section for articles?) makes them egomaniacal bastards. Dissing for the sake of it is not cool, and I certainly wouldn’t expect it coming from this wonderful site. I know modding can be really tiring what with all the comments, but that’s no reason to vent your frustration by basically fostering fan-site sectarianism. Pokejungle is a fun, diverse community, not some closed off, self-indulging caste. Stay cool and stay friendly pokejungle staff! 🙂
nintendalek42, that was really well said. btw I like your username. 🙂
Thanks!
You made a very good point about love for pokemon not being a competition, but just a shared fan experience.
I’m always friendly 🙁
I haven’t actually fully read this article yet (got a lot on my plate today!) but just know that there’s a chance it’s just Dae’s opinion, and not a reflection of all of the staff 🙂
well Dae’s opinion is arrogant and it needs to change.
An opinion is an opinion.
And a mean opinion needs to change.
An opinion can’t exactly be mean if it’s what someone else believes.
Actually yes it can. Its possible to believe another person is a loser, and a fucking piece of shit that deserves to die. If you honestly believe that opinion is not mean then I will give you a copy of pokemon x and y 5 days before they come out.
I honestly believe that.. do I get a free copy?
Really? you don’t think that’s mean? sorry, but that does not compute with me. I fail to understand how anyone could actually believe such mean ideas are not mean. And therefore I will assume you are lying just to get a copy, which you therefore won’t get. I am completely certain no one would ACTUALLY believe wishing death on someone isn’t mean.
Of course not, I’m just snow-balling here.. people shouldn’t take everything so seriously 🙂 But there is people that will whole-heartedly agree with you.
And that simply shows that you, my friend, will believe what you want to believe.. we cannot change the perception of truth in your eyes 😉
** Also, don’t worry, I can afford both XY and those 2 are enough for one poke fan.
I’d like a copy myself. Because all I see when I read the line is what it says.
“Remember, we are Pokejungle.net, which means we really try to be a network or community where everyone is free to give their opinion. Unlike some of our competitors who mostly use their site to boost their own ego.”
He didn’t call any one out, all you’re doing is assuming he is talking about Pokebeach, Smogon, or Serebii. You have no idea who these competitors are. They all cover Pokemon in general but they each have they’re different aspects to seperate them from competiting with one another. Pokebeach reports things about the Pokemon TCG. Most of the TCG that are release WPM is quick to cover them immedately. Smogon covers the metagame that is Competitive Play. Every set up or team you would one Smogon does it (Honestly more efficiently than Serebii). Speaking of which, Serebii covers more along the lines of Pokemon Animes more than any other of the sites. Pokejungle is most of a networking site for Pokemon fans where they can get reports on Pokemon news and rumors as well as Pokemon Smash/Get TV more than the others.
Dae said nothing even to the nearest of seriousness of that lol
I’m going to inject here and say, the way you are approaching this situation is childish and rude. If you would like us to take your opinion seriously, act like you can withhold an argument.
Your tits are so uncalm right now. You love how you say he has a ‘mean’ opinion, yet you yourself have a ‘mean’ opinion of this reporter. Hypocrisy in its finest
An opinion is an opinion. Opinions are subjective and never objective. They have the right express their opinion, you can’t force someone to change their opinion just because its mean or you don’t like it.
For one, he didn’t specify any competitors. You and other people are assuming he’s talking about Pokebeach, Smogon, and Serebii. So we don’t know who he is talking about. Furthermore, lighten up. Its poking fun at some of the sites. I see no malicious intent what so ever.
Secondly, I love how a lot of people ignored the entire reason for this article just for the one line. I didn’t see one thing in this article that made Dae or Pokejungle seem self-righteous or a high horse mentality. I frequent PB, PJ, and Serebii, there are that are, Journalist and Reports. I’ve yet to see anyone them on a high horse.
Calm your tits, Sugar.
lol, that’s gotta be one of the meanest/”coolest” (as ‘with attitude’) way to address someone : Calm your tits sugar.. calm your tits, haha.
Nah I did it to be funny. Its one of my catchphrases that I tend to use a lot that. Woman find it hysterical. Works even better cause I’m gay lol
No wonder it sounded stylish 😛 Good one man, allow me to copy you.
I don’t if that’s what you think. I think you should change your disqus profile pic because I don’t like girls, but that’s my opinion. That shouldn’t mean anything to you. I think you should leave this community personally if you’re just going to complain about someone else’s opinion. If you find something offensive just don’t say anything and stay off. Aside from the fact it’s fucking retarded to let someone else’s opinions hurt you. I’m constantly told I should die because I’m gay but I don’t care because that’s someone else’s opinion. I don’t get online or in public view and act like the worlds ending because someone wants to be an asshole. Usually they’re just looking to stir up shit.
homophobia is terrible! I’m actually on your side with that one.
Yes it is. And I live at school with five guys that are homophobic and when I go home for the weekends I live with my family that’s pretty much homophobic. Through this I’ve learned that other peoples opinions don’t matter to me personally and they will not affect my lifestyle because if they did, I wouldn’t be posting this right now and probably would’ve had another OD attempt. Moral? Don’t let others personal thoughts get to you.
homophobia is terrible, I am actually on your side regarding this one.
You have a “mean” opinion of Dae right now. By your logic that needs to change too lol
Everyone is entitled to an opinion. I don’t like how seriously you’re taking all this (it’s just Dae’s sense of humor, that’s all), but that’s my opinion. If you don’t agree, then fine- I can’t make you. But please try to be less serious; it was just a bit of (bad ) humor. 😉
Right now I’m really thankful for comments like the one by nintendalek42, because everybody else is making me feel ganged up upon. He however, hit the nail right on the head.
I never said that Dae’s comment wasn’t unnecessary. I never said your opinion was bad. I actually agree with Nintendalek42, but I also understand the other side of the argument; I’m not taking either side.
No one is ganging up on you, we’re just all trying to get our opinions out there like a normal community. No harsh feelings, k?
ok. sorry I overreacted. I’m used to dealing with cyber bullies and my mood disorder is also making me in a bad place now. Consider this resolved, please no one else come along and stir the pot. 🙂
It’s ok. I understand the need to defend yourself all too well. 😉
Wes, are you admin? I don’t see “gym leader” by your name but you seem mature enough to be one. Communities like this one need more people like you and nintendalek42. Your words made me feel a lot better, I was feeling really angry before. Having a gentle tone goes a long way with me. I know not everyone has that kind of personality, but just saying. 🙂
I’m sorry for my comment down below, I understand what you’re going through 🙂
Thanks. I saw your comment and got a little churned up inside but that apology goes along way with me, too! 🙂
I got your back, don’t worry about it 🙂
No, I’m not an admin (I’m only 14). :p
But yeah, sometimes people just need to slow down and look at the situation for what it is, not what it appears to be.
How old are the admins here? Do you know? I am 24 btw, but I have bipolar and aspergers. I don’t know if those things were evident in my comments, but I see how they could have been.
I honestly don’t know how old the admins are, but I think one of them said they were 21. I’m not sure though so don’t hold it to me. 🙂
4 or 5…
Trust me nobody is ganging up on you they just disagree with your opinion 🙂 Personally I do see were your coming from as his language could be interpreted as arrogant and maybe even mean to some but then I think It’s more sarcastic/jokish than serious most of the time
That is a ‘mean’ opinion in of itself.
Whoa,dude
Leave Dae alone
Don’t worry, no one’s mad at you;). I was just being general so as not to offend dae or something.
Daedardus has a very sarcastic sense of humor. He is our favorite Pokejungle reporter.
well although I don’t know the others very well, what he said makes me want to say he is my least favorite. And I am not a very big fan of sarcastic senses of humor, either.
Just to clarify, I think Dae simply meant that we’re focused on our community element rather than sites that don’t allow comments or make you register to post. He just worded it badly.
oh… I think I get it now. I really thought he meant he had a legitimate problem with other sites. Which to be honest, made me a little sad.
Nope. I removed the line now, because it did sound bad and was confusing
We should start a petition for Nintendo to release the X/Y PAX demo on the Nintendo eShop… I know it’s kinda late cuz the game comes out next week but I need a little taste D:
If they hand out demos people will be less likely to buy it. If they’re disappointed with the demo, they won’t buy the game/cancel their preorder/ etc. If they just release the games normally, they’ll make more money. $-$
I know that’s not particularly related, and I apologize. But for some reason I thought of that after reading this 😛
I hope they show the a game related to the split second Lucario/Blazekin scene we saw earlier.
that is what they would like games to look like in the future it isnt a game
I saw “Comment Policy Clarification” and immediately thought “Oh shit, what did we do this time?”
I doubt Nintendo will show off any Pokemon news.
A little off topic, but is it true that pokemon x and y reviews are coming out on the 4th and that they are allowed to leak?
Not necessarily. They’re allowed to talk about things that have already been officially revealed in their reviews.
So it will still be spoiler free?
If they’re following the agreement, most likely. There’s always the possibility of leaks though.
I’ll be on my guard….
“We really try to be a network or community where everyone is free to give their opinion. Unlike some of our competitors who mostly use their site to boost their own ego.”
Ohh dear ;L there was me so pleased reading the comment policy info and you just HAD to go and add this in at the end, realllyy? 😮 I don’t understand why you felt the the need to add this in? It kinda contradicts the whole point of the article as It’s completely an irrelevant point and quite a silly thing to say. Perhaps you’d like to elaborate on what you mean by this? I understand you may just be taking a sly humorous dig at other sites but remember that as you said you’re communicating with a larger audience these days so you should probably save the dry humor for the comments section in the future as it doesn’t reflect well on the site ;P
To me, it’s kind of sarcastic (they tease Dae themselves, haha, so it could be an inside joke?).
Yeah I think it is too as I’ve read these comments long enough to assume that but I worry that new visitors would read it and interpret it badly
Well, there is one at the top xD Giving free copies of pokemon to those that agree with him, haha.. oh man.
“Unlike some of our competitors who mostly use their site to boost their own ego.”
I can’t think of a single Pokemon site that is made to boost the owners ego, just saying.
I personally don’t believe they’ll reveal anything of substance, but hopefully they prove me wrong! I just want oorotto at this point ;( I’d also like starter final evolutions (As if) so that I can for sure lock in my choice of Fennekin.
They’ll probably show that one clip of Oorotto which doesn’t include the name and keep silent XD
If that happens I’ll use flamethrower on my computer and sob hysterically until I explode.
Sound very gamefreakish, are you an insider? ;b
Hey guys, what do you think we’ll get tomorrow? I’m hoping for a demo on the Eshop, that would be lovely to tide me over until the release.
If worst comes to worst…no Pokemon news. However, as the direct is focusing on these last two months, I am willing to bet that we will hear something about it.
Ok forget all the comment policy for a sec we got potential evo leaks! (Of course leaker covers the evo as per usual *Rolls eyes*)
Did you add an image, or are you referring to the Greninja and stuff?
*refresh* 😉
Oh…OHH MYY.
Oh my…..a witch….
Mm indeed, i would be quite happy if the evo was like the silhouette (As in Witch on broom)
I might choose fennekin now 🙂
Could be real. Could be fake. Doesn’t matter really because it didn’t show anything at all. Sorta think of it as a silhouette. Haha.
I see a witch figure on a broom in last shot. I’m assuming they’re fake but I just posted them as a lead/something to discuss
Oh yes. Upon closer examination, I did notice that. But still, I’d be cautious because of how close we are to release and that there’s that embargo in place…
Nintendo used Embargo!
Of course they couldn’t reveal the whole thing….then again maybe it’s not real so maybe they had nothing to reveal at all.
I will believe it, because I can be quite gullible.
:O 😀
YES SOMETHING WITH FENNEKIN! 😀
It may be fake, but honestly, I’m just excited that they leaked Fennekin’s final. (Somewhat :3)
But it looks half decent and looks real in my opinion.
However, I know it is most likely will be fake, and I will store tissues in my corner for that moment.
It probably is fake as I’ve seen Braxien in this exact same pose for a trailer and there were shots showing Haunter evolving into Gengar with the same glow around it.
But that could be its pose or something.
And the glow shows Braixen’s pose in it, not Haunter.
But that could probably easily photoshopped.
I don’t care, I’m just excited that Fennekin finally got its (fake, maybe) final evo leaked
True. These days, I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if this was photoshopped.
I agree with this, And anyways, after Wottergate I shall never confirm a leak as 100% fake until I see concrete evidence
Am I missing something here? I looked up Wottergate last night to see what it meant but I got some Supreme Court scandal. I must of missed it. xD
Wottergate Scandal was when the dex descriptons and later the artwork of the Unova Starters Final Evos were leaked. Everyone was highly upset especially about Emboar and Samurott. (Personally I like both of them and Serperior) Several people claimed and even admitted to them being fake. Everyone believed, but when release happened they were not fake lol
All we need now is a pic for Quiladin evo and Frogadier evo. Even a silhouette is fine!
Well. What a surprise as doing HW is no fun. Now this. Maybe our FakeLeakBusters from Pokejungle.net can decipher whether this is true or not! I’ll be here sporadically. 😀
Dicie…hi. Do you think it’s real?
Hey, nice to see ya! I think it looks cool, but until I get the final Fennekin evolution, I can’t judge it. But it looks legit. Then again, this could’ve been photoshopped from that Chespin-Quilladin evolution pic that the Italian Lady posted w/ the Pokemon Center picture that day, and created in the form of yesterday’s fake Chespin final evolution. Only time can tell:
11 days, 16 hours, 25 minutes, and 30 seconds!
I hate to ruin on your parade inspector but the Chespin evo pic was much lower res so much you could hardly make it out 😉 I do wonder though where the Italian lady went as she never posted the leaks she promised she would 🙁
Yeah, something feels legit about this. And I’m happy about that, because I love fennekin.
Actually the Chespin final evo was proven fake already
No not that one the evo pic from the first set of leaks (Pokecentre ones)
Oh ok
I feel like, if we can consider the evolution images of Chespin evolving into Quilladin legitimate, this can be as well. While that may seem like a drastic statement, the overall image looks unique. But yeah, only this school week and next school week! 😀
Yup! 9 more FRUSTRATING days of school. (but only 7 of Homework!) YAY! 😀
This is why I’m glad I have Fall Break during the release
Oh crap, yeah! Only 8 more days of school because we have next Friday off!
WUT? NEXT FRIDAY OFF?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Yea. College students get a week in October off for Fall break. I’m probably going to put my D&D game aside and play the hell of of X lol
I just found out I get the 14th of October, monday, off!!! That means an extra pokemon XY day!!!
I don’t. 🙁 But I don’t do anything much for Thanksgiving, so when I get that week off in November I can catch up on the sleep I’ll lose at the hands of my Y in the weeks following release.
Haha, no class for me either, I have never had a Friday class in college!
We can make it! Your own personal Dedennyden is right around the corner!
Im pretty sure its fake, unless the evolving animation is extremely slow, I doubt someone would get the picture at the perfect time. But I may be wrong ^-^
still, much higher quality then these faker leaks have been, and it seems to have the official evolution background
There was a screenshot with Scatterbug and the same background. So it could be taken from that.
But who would put that much effort into such an image?
Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised with all of the images we saw these past few weeks. Lol.
I think you mean just yesterday surprisingly
Shutter-shots? That would work, right?
they save the game before leveling up to 36 and keep soft-reseting until they get a good picture.
It looks like it is riding a broom with one foot falling down while seated upon it. While the torso is positioned pointing out in front where the broom handle-end is facing. This would be so cool if it was true! Sadly, it’s not wise to get our hopes up about anything!
It’s fake. Take a look at the images! They were provided by RocketClauncher, they have the same effect. Someone just copied them. There 100% similar with just somethings edited.
The lens flare on Haunter evolution would make J.J. Abrams proud lol
Please be real please be real!!!!! I really want Fennekin to end as a witch
Well, I like the concept of the stick between the.. wait.. no.
But yeah, transition image and same flare? 🙁 Sadly fake it seems
Braixen evolution is fake. If you look at the animation of it evolving its the same as this one from the Haunter evolution. The sparkles and lighting are all the same.
http://nintendo3dsdaily.com/nintendo3dsnews/pokemon-x-and-y-some-new-screenshots/
So quickly shot down D:
Oh well….
And yeah, those screenshots don’t have silhouettes in them.
Yep, if only it was real though! From what it looked like, it would have been awesome!
im actually kind of happy, considering i thought the ear fur looked off.
Alright guys, that fake was exciting but lets get back on track.
OMG! Randomness but… just 11 more days! I really really have a sudden obsession of wanting to see the likely evolution for Clauncher! Pyroar and Talonflame were complete badasses. Honestly, all of the evolutions for Generation VI have been awesome so far! Can’t wait for evolutions other Pokemon like Bunnelby too! 😀
10 days if it’s an international eshop release!
fenn really needs to cut those ear hair it gets bigger and bigger
i want team flare music to leak
Is this normal? I can’t say..
http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/273/2/1/stone_fence_by_giovannihp90-d6opiq8.png
No stone fence on the map, which also misses an entire row of rocks..
and considering the fact that the map is so accurate it includes the cones on the skate park, I seriously doubt they could overlook a whole row of rocks.
Also I doubt they would just copy/paste the same rock texture in 4 rows, it just seems lazy. I feel there would be at least some variation.
Also, looking at it, the “leak” seems to have the rocks extend for several rows past 4. I can count at least 5, maybe 6, extending into the background.
I guess you could make an argument for overworld map art not being very detailed…I don’t really know to be honest. The main character in the picture looks odd…..
Might be something, but maps don’t always have every detail either. A lot of the towns and cities only show three buildings, and considering the size of stuff back in Gen V, I doubt towns will be that small.
As, Sable said, maps don’t have all the details. This image is highly real. Well, it looks real! Still, it could be fake. The main character kind of looks weird!
I can’t tell where if those are the main character’s legs or if he’s riding something
He looks like he’s on a bike.
I could sort of see that…but his hair…it looks so blurry
Black hat, then blonde hair probably.
You have better eyes than I do xD
I’m an Artist and Graphic Designer by trade and study. I may be off, but that’s at least what I can see.
No wonder! xD
For an instance, here’s the Unova map. Count all the inconsistencies with the map vs what’s actually there in the game. The Second gym town would have you believe there is nothing in the town but the museum itself. The Ground gym town seemingly only has three buildings, and a gym.
http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110427214359/pokemon/images/f/fb/Isshu.jpg
Nah man, don’t read too much into something like that. Maps aren’t suppose to be detailed 😛
Well there’s four if you look at it from the horizontal perspective…
yo this sounds cool for team flare
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CEu3FQBOmA
who wants to break the tie
I like the Big Band/Swing Band feel to it. It is a bit on the Donkey Kong side, haha, but I do think it is the appropriate genre. I think many people are expecting futuristic electronica; however, that doesn’t seem to fit the old-school glitz of Team Flare, they appear very 1920’s with the flashy red “zuit suit” and shades.
anyone want team flare to walk up to you snapping there fingers
Lol what is this West Side Story or Grease lol
they have fashion
Team Flare will try to brainwash us to assassinate the Malaysian Prime Minister!

http://content6.flixster.com/question/40/48/32/4048328_std.jpg
Imagine that they will reveal the starters final evo in the new trailer :O
I hope they at least show one more Pokemon. Just one, that’s all I ask for!
Oorotto…and leave it unrevealed
what do you mean by unrevealed? as in do exactly what they did in the one trailer and never officially reveal it to kill us inside?
yup
well time to prepare myself for the madness IF they show a new pokemon. i always hate when they show a nintendo direct because im at school now and it kills me
i believe that to be unlikely but with nintendo throwing surprises at us this whole year you never know
they usually wait until the game comes out for them to reveal the final evolutions.
I have a good feeling bout tomorrows nintendo direct, I’m hoping for a 5 minute final trailer for x and y and MAYBE a demo for us to hold over for a week.
Still waiting for Oorotto’s english name……
EDIT: HELL, I’m waiting for an actual reveal of Oorotto
same
I’m guessing it’ll be horroot (horror + root)
That reads like “whore+root” though.
Wouldn’t be the first time a Pokemon name sounded ‘wrong.’
cofagrigus.
yeah a lot of words/names have “bad words” in them. But it’s not like it’s even spelled like that.
That is pronounced, cah ‘fugh’.
To the other examples, that’s like saying, shore, contains whore. It’s one of those ending -ass, that is completely changed once the starting consonant is added.
You wouldn’t say, Lap-urh-ass or Nous-ep-ass!!
May I ask what the wrong ones are? The only one I’ve felt uncomfortable saying out loud is Lapras. I’m not sure if I’m saying it right or not, but I always say lap-rass, and it sounds ‘wrong’.
As thatoneguychris said, Cofagrigus is one, it can’t even be traded without a nickname, and then on top of Lapras, we have Nosepass. Those are the two that immediately jump out at me.
I can’t trade my poor Frosl*** on the GTS! I really wanted to get rid of it for a Co***agrigus.
Loggrot, Spectree or Hauntree, Treevil maybe even Wickawood
something like these
Spectree sounds about perfect.
I hope for Treerie
