Although I’m covering this news story, it’s by popular demand. I don’t believe any of this and I highly recommend that you do not either.
The site DualPixels (which has since crashed) claimed to have gotten “information” from a leaker about Generation VII. They claim:
- Two new games are codenamed Pokémon Plus & Pokémon Minus, could be final
- The battle system is going to be re-worked completely and simplified
- New region is based on Southeast Asia, may have islands
- GameFreak is trying many new ideas out that they’ve been holding onto
- “Three new starters with no names: Water evolves into Water/Steel and is a squat, teardrop shaped humanoid that has a jar filled with on its head as it evolves it grows taller and the jar bigger until it needs another set of arms to hold it on it’s head. Fire evolves into Fire/Fairy and is a tiny cute goat with fire blowing out of its horns, it’s horns and look evolves more menacing until it has curly ram like horns and a motorcycle hot-rod-like look. Grass evolves into a Grass/Electric and starts with a leap for a face with a nubby root as a body and evolves until it grows into an electric producing palm tree with each flower petal having a different face.”
- “The main legendary for Pokemon Plus is a Shi Foo Lion-looking Psychic/Ground-type that has multiple faces, the Pokemon Minus legendary is a Ghost/Fairy type that has two dashes for eyes and is a hurricane-like appendages with many arms and hands.”
- “The new “Team” villains are described as a bunch of “Sohei Zelots”-types who have discovered the player’s best friend as a reincarnation of a special type of person who only is alive every 100 years. They believe the old system where people were given a Pokemon egg and they stick to that Pokemon until they die and who’s function in society dictate what role that person is. They are against the “modern” trend of Pokemon Trainers and capturing multiple Pokemon and are making a holy pilgrimage to evoke the old Legendaries to turn everything back to normal. They keep the player away from their friend, saying the special one (who can do amazing things like mega evolve Pokemon without the use of a mega ring) only love is that of Pokemon and not people. It is planned to be reveal later that for the special one to fulfill their role in society they must be mortally sacrificed to awaken the legendaries.”
- Could be for Wii U
That’s it 🙂 Discuss them as you’d like! Thanks to everyone who emailed/tweeted me about them!

Featured Thread: New Mega Evolution Ideas for Gen 7 by Ookarus
Goodnight EVERYONE AND HAVE DANDY NIGHT AND SLEEP WELL!
Just spent 400 bucks on PS4
Need to spend 100ish more for a 1.5 TB hard drive that will actually be able to store a realistic number of games
There goes my school lunchs
Hooray! Capitalism!
u cant put external hard drives on ps4
Nope only replace the internal one. good thing its actual;y pretty easy to do from what i hear
well one thing and the system broken
I got a warranty on it and also save files are going to be put on a cloud service in the future I hear
Nope, saves go on the cloud now atm. If you get PS+, you can do it.
oh cool looks like im all set then XD
I did it on my PS3 and 4 and both turned out fine, just download the OS from SONY’s site on a flashdrive that is 3 gigs or more.
3 gigs would be useless for a PS4
lol the OS booter is only 2.5 gigs, it tells the PS4 to install the OS from the motherboard where it’s stored. Then it’ll update it to the current format.
so the system update goes on the drive?
You do know you can get one for only 60 on NewEgg. Here is the one I used on my PS4.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822149394
wait ONLY 60???!!!!??
Yup, also NewEgg doesn’t tax either, and since its over 30, free shipping too.
thank you so much!
NP, also remember, it maybe 1TB, but with the OS and apps (or what i call, PS4 Blotter) you’ll be left with possibly 800 or so gigs. But imo is more than enough to last you this gen. I own a PS3 with 320 gigs, and with PS+ for 2 years I’m still ok!
games are 50 gigs though… Thats absurd
Wait later this gen, games will be larger. IMO I most likely will not worry seeing in Medicine, you have less time to play, but its still nice to have room for some entertainment.
When I go to college in 2015 im probably only gonna take my nintendo consoles
My ps4 along with 4 games & headset bundle came to around 800 bucks
I got the last non bundle in my gamestop
very lucky!! when you buy it? today?
the saturday after chrismas
awesome!!
I got a non bundle from Amazon. But I made my own, 520 and got my PS4, Injustice, knack and AC4. Can’t wait for Tomb Raider, MGS V, and inFamous!
I looooove Knack!!
Do you have your streaming set up (or whatever they decided on) for PS3 games and such?
its not up until summer cant wait to play ni no kuni though
ahh this explains why I can’t do it yet lol
Ooh. Okay. Will it only be for games that were released as downloads and in physical form or both?
Yeah I would like to know myself… cause there is two PS3 systems in my household, as well as my PS4… and I bought PS1 classics on those other two consoles and would love it if I can play my ps1 classics on ps4… sucker for the old resident evil games…
Sadly PS Now will only work with one PSN, so besure each PS3 runs under the same PSN.
Ahh thanks for the tip!!
Downloads atm, and most PS+ freebies.
does downloads include ps1 classics?
Yes, they demoed it with FF7.
I’ve played it twice since christmas. Only played this game called Knack. I didn’t like the games that came with it… Killzone, Call of Duty, and Angry Birds Starwars. 3 of the games are still unopened.
What do you mean by streaming? I seen a few of you on here a little ago talking about a “playstation now” how do i do this lol
BlackMetal just told me it won’t be up until summer, but because the games aren’t backwards compatible(unfortunately) they will have a cloud based streaming service for old games.
arghhh…. I bet Bank gets delayed til summer too… well atleast theres more to look forward to summer time then. Lots of good movies as well.
I swear to God if Bank gets delayed until summer I will write to Nintendo of America. (I don’t know Japanese.)
I’m gonna personally call Nintendo Support myself soon and curse them out at the top of my lungs if we don’t hear an update by Tuesday
. . . you could write in English seeing your writing to NoA. ..just saying.
Killzone is beautiful but boring, ghosts is well cod so its bland, knack is broken and angry birds is way overpriced
lmfao @ “well cod so its bland”… no lies were stated there…. my little brother plays COD about 7-9 hours per day and I saw him drooling over mine.
NFS Rivals and AC 4 are by far the best launch titles also resogun if you have +
There are other good titles. Oh March will kill me, Watch Dogs, MGS V, and inFamous, TOO MUCH!
Watch Dogs is the game that made me buy the PS4.. I can’t wait to get it when it comes out.
I might get it for Wii U.
I probably gonna get it for Wii U also
You guys are making me jealous; we have no more room in our house for a PS4. XD
I’m not getting one until I can play my PS3 purchases on it.
Can the cables from the PS3 be used for the PS4? I highly doubt it, but that would have to be in order for me to get the system.
Yes, it’s best to also seeing they sometimes are reported to break the PS4 ports. I used my PS3’s cable on my 4 and it works like a dream!
OH MY GOSH yes! I can’t believe it! I actually have a chance! Now once they make a backwards-compatible model, I’ll be all set.
They won’t, hence why PS Now is coming.
Buttt Xatu, they might remake Crash only for PS4 ya know!
Then Summer 2014 it is for you! By then there will be awesome titles to get as well! -Psssst get MGS V!-
Maybe. I only really play Kingdom Hearts. And with 2.5 coming out with remakes of my two favorite PS games in the series, I don’t want to be snubbed.
Me too along with other games
MGS V part 1 you mean…
@shinyxatu:disqus i gotta say it, your profile pic reminds me of cory monteith
who does mine remind u of >:D
a goat after a terrible accident
https://www.blastr.com/sites/blastr/files/the-governor-the-walking-dead.jpg
the pirate from spongebob
THE GOVERNOR
Does it really? XD
yes, its maybe the eyes lol
dang i got the eye patch on the wrong eye….
whos part of the SkiddoBury
I had Mewtwo burn that place down
Seems ZephyrSonic got a PS4! Nice, I wish I can ask him for his PSN lol Could use some online challengers
What the hell makes Jynx an Ice type?
Her cold gaze/ heart/ move pool/ ????
I don’t know. she’s odd.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8X3l_Tt8VE this give you a good reason why jynx is an ice type
There are plenty of poke-typings that don’t make sense, i.e. Mr. Mime is a fairy.
WONDER CUP!!!!!
whats that lol?
A new member of the Powerpuff Girls?
more like a new member of the wonderful 101
I always liked the Rowdy Rough Boys better.
You take six pokemon and wonder trade them away, then battle with the pokemon you get.
i did that once…
So it would be 4 Scatterbugs and 2 Piplups pretty much?
Lol yeah
People trade you scatterbugs? :c that is usually the only thing I ever want out of wondertrade so I can complete the vivillions and I have never gotten any… jealous 😛
Wrong, 2 Bunellbys, 2 Scatterbugs, and 2 Fletchlings. IMO if evovled, your set.
Lol I actually got two fletchlings on my team.
has anyone used the LC rules?
Just curious, who here is excited for E3 2014?
OH HECK YEAH.
ME! XD
ZELDA U BABEH!
YEAAAAAA
I hope Pokemon is there :/
They will be!
Pokemon on Wii U hopefully! The Wii U needs to be the highlight of this year.
I hope we see some Phantom Paine, Monolith Soft X, Yarn Yoshi, Pokemon on Wii U, Uncharted PS4, and the rebirth of Crash Bandicoot as a PS Exclusive!
I am excited for everything ever! 😛
in other words. “I am”
Oh hell yeah!
So, who’s this VoltSonic character? Are they new here?
Who is that? Has anybody heard of him?
Oh… I see. It’s that sort of thing.
(If you see him, don’t talk to him. He’s a monster. Say that you love him, it’s his only weakness).
I love everyone.
I’m going to respond to every comment he leaves with some kind of remark like “I love you” or something creepy, so maybe he’ll be counter-trolled. I’m just having a lot of fun with this. XD
Your such a counter loser troll patheic
(If you see xatu, don’t talk to him. He’s a monster. Say that you hate him, it’s his only weakness).
Shut up and DIE! BANKAI!
Lol what?
BANKAI! DIE!
ANYONE HEARD OF XATU I HAVENT, YOUR SUCH A LOSER GROW UP!
DIE BANKAI!
I’d like VoltSonic to know that he’s welcome here and I love him. I just hope that he conducts himself in a more respectful manner.
I’m respectful and have manner but Xatu and his lackies lack it
Everyone seems to be talking about PS4… meanwhile I am here like… “I have a wii u, its a nice wii u” 😛
meanwhile i will be sitting in the corner waiting for MK8
meanwhile.. I’m just sitting here readings everyone’s comments while masuda’ing for a shiny nidoran
meanwhile while i am reading your comment i am in FS looking for shiny spheal
big purple ball! adorable! take a pic if you find one!!
Meanwhile…I am being distracted from homework like every other day. It’s sitting right in front of me. XD
lmao
Should I feel lucky I bread a perfect shiny Chimchar on the first try?
very lucky. and wow i’m jealous :/
Mario Kart 8? I am patiently waiting for Smash bros, hyrule warriors, that pokemon thing they teased, “the list goes on” 😛
no mk8:(?
yes mk8! 😀
I have a Wii U too! Well, not a Wii U 2, but a Wii U, too…you know, “too”, not “two”. Yeah. XD
hahaha, I understand 😛
I can’t wait for E3 2014 and the new Zelda game! I thoroughly enjoyed Wind Waker HD and need a fresh adventure!
Oh my gosh yes! O_O I will probably pass out if they announce it, zelda is more important to me than pretty much any other game
It’s CONFIRMED that they will announce it! 😀
It is confirmed that I will end up on conscious 😛
I heard rumors of the first dungeon being as large as hyrule field in OoT for zelda Wii U (remember, RUMOR)
Wait for it, E3 2014 rolls in, we get a Pic of Kyogre and Groundon screaming, and see “The Storm is coming once again!”. Then cut.
*dies*
pants will be ruined
I would have already been dead from excitement.
Me and AAAAAAAA the mudkip will be reunited…
And I just have a Wii. *sad face*
you poor unfortunate soul :c
Not poor, he got good games, Xenoblade q-q, the Last Story, Skyward Sword, and The Galaxy series.
You speak truth good sir, I have been mistaken, speaking of which I don’t think I ever finished galaxy 2, :C
I still like my wii u more though
Me too. I still have to play Pikmin 3, which I own but have not invested much time into.
Blasphemy! You MUST play it, and preferably with the Wiimote. That game shown that Nintendo still got it!
To be honest, I got stuck at one part of the game and I am still a Pikmin noob so I kind of abandoned it. BUT. I will probably restart my file and start fresh.
Do so, and I suggest using help site. I think there is one like Zelda Dungeon for Pikmin and it helped me in a few hard places. Also Collect EVERYTHING you see, your LIFE literally depends on it.
Well I think I’m going to play and 100% complete Super Mario 3D World first once I get it in the mail, then after that play Pikmin 3 while waiting for March to roll around!
Same
Is it wrong that I own a Wii U, PS3, PS4 and might get a Steam Machine to boot O.o
Where do your loyalties lie(lay?)?! xD
I just like games in general.
nope, I myself am a self proclaimed nintendo fan boy, and yet even I bought a PS3 to play skyrim, Ni no kuni and others
The Nintendo-Sony Dual Fanboy is the best fanboy. 😀
nope. it means you r LOADED
lol Medicine does pay well.
I wouldn’t mind a Wii U… It’s just my parents are weird about me and Nintendo being together. =/
Are you in some kind of relationship with Nintendo? XD
They’re the only ones that have good, non repetitive game ideas!
Well, my dad told me that I am too old for nintendo and that if I want to act my age and still play games I should move to one of the other two consoles… and I told him… well, I can’t post that here 😛 LONG LIVE NINTENDO!!! haha
My parents told me I’m too old for Pokemon and I just laughed at them.
I’m 14 and my parents are just in denial about the fact that I play Pokemon. I ignore peer pressure.
20, GF and I play pkm with other Medical colleagues. Screw Peer pressure, its too main stream now 😉
You are younger than I am, and I still play them and will play them for as long as I shall live >: D
Younger by how much?
You once said you were 18 right? by 2 years then 😛
Yeah. Fair enough I guess. My boyfriend is 24 and he plays a lot of Square Enix. I guess I can continue playing Pokemon for a very long time.
Has anyone here seen episode 12 of the anime with english subs
Nope, is it out and any good?
I can’t find it on youtube, seeing if there any other sites
I main on Anime44.com who subs them every tuesday after its released. So next tuesday your best bet. The subber’s are greedy and don’t sub pkm and yugioh or Naruto seeing they don’t get many hits -o-
Hey Genovia… I just saw your comment about Mr. Mime being Fairy… I wish I had read that before battling one. I was trying to figure out why the Mr. Mime kept take hits like a man in the Maison!
The timing of his post wasn’t “Fairy” good, it seems. XD not funny.
“CornyXatu”
I approve of this pun.
Thank you for the approval. 😛
Hey! 😛 There’s nothing wrong with my timing.
Haha yeah. Can’t use dark or bug against it effectively anymore. Kinda makes Mr. Mime slightly SLIGHTLY more usable. But not really.
Mr. Mime scares me and I am disgraced by its presence in the fairy typing :C
I thinks the only creepy thing about it is its battle animation.
me: It’s body shall lie in the chamber of secrets for ever.
Are you sure, my Mr.Mime that i bread is a tank atm.
Yeah but it’s Def. isn’t ideal compared to other Psychic or Fairy types

Today I read that nintendo still has a higher share than sony
Skeptics TAKE THAT
Well I bet both and if the Steam Machine’s catch on, will be higher than MS.
Any doubts about Germany being influenced as the next region? Watch away…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXeA0HL8b2A
I KNEW i wasn’t the only person who felt this way
so what the starters would be:O
hopefully not a water bottle & electric root.
would it be bad that for a dolphin pokemon i was thinking for a simple bottle with a fin to be the pre-evo
Psychic/Ice Dolphin for Gen 7 please.
only if they buff psychic and ice defenses
heavy!!!
im scared of the crime syndicate
who ever goes to my chat and says “may is ugly” gets to be a mod http://www.djjatalk.chatango.com/ and i think hurrn remakes should happen.
Lol, scyther with night slash sweeps in wonder cup.
DAMN YOU SKY DROP AERODACTYL YOU SCREWED UP MY STREAK.
you fought one in maison/institute?
Maison.
in BW2 pwt sky drop was banned…
It was online too because of a glitched combination that would’ve been thought of.
Did it mega evolve?
No. It took out my Roserade.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=e0HwlIs_I74
In just under 2 minutes, Monolith Soft provided proof that the Wii U is not only next-gen, but the soon to be home of the best RPG’s EVER!

I cant beleive that I loved Blood dragon so much
Well, after months of avoiding it, I finally caught that darned Moltres.
You with Moltres, me with Articuno.
I still haven’t caught Zapdos.
I waited as long as I absolutely could and finally decided I might as well finish the Kalos Dex.
I’m going to finish mine soon. I’m missing like thirty four mons or something like that.
I’m at about the same place. Most are missing from the mountain dex because by that time I was just worried about defeating the Elite 4.
