It seems that the future of the Pokémon franchise could be headed in a floral direction, if J. C. Smith’s words are to be taken as gospel. In an interview with Nintendo World Report the Director of Consumer Marketing at The Pokémon Company International was asked to give a cryptic clue tease for what the future of Pokémon is. That cryptic clue was “Flowers”.
Flowers, obviously already have some sort of meaning to the Pokémon franchise. In X & Y, a number of Team Flare’s admins and their leader had names oriented around flowers in Japanese, with Lysandre himself referring a few times to himself and Flare’s plans becoming “a flower that bloomed to no avail…”
Of course, there’s also AZ and his Floette, both of which had fleeting appearances in X & Y and were also mentioned by Zinnia throughout Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. Perhaps we won’t be seeing a Pokémon Z in the future, but a Pokémon AZ version?
There’s a tonne of speculation just waiting to be done with just that simple tease, but sadly only time will tell what “Flowers” will actually mean. In the mean time however, let us know where this cryptic tease could lead the Pokémon series in the comments.
dear Deerlia…..i was read ur posting i didn’t know y u deleting it actually u don’t have to post this ….. first of all i am not good in english that’s mean i have hard time while i am posting here ,second one my post was too long and i really reviewing what i said but i abstract it ..the last thing I have not accused any one here i respect all gym leader here …and i am just asking …i thought they could be error or something .
By no means was i accusing you of wrongdoing… I was suggesting it may not be a wise idea to post that because it may come across as spamming or avoidance of some kind of problem, but looking more into your post, i realized that you were just asking a question, not trying to start an issue. I guess it was a bad idea for me to do that, because it made me look stupid and kind of mean, so… I apologize for that.
hahaha no i am not trying to make an issue here ……no need for apologize i just want make u understand .
I read in a German Pokemon forum that the next generation of games in being produced right now. A user has said that he has some information, but only about a few new moves, all of which ara Fairy type.
According to him, the moves are:
– Fairy wing: physical move. Always raises the speed one level. Learned by Swablu, Altaria, Togetic, Swanna, Beautifly and a new Pokemon line based in fairy books. It actually has the shape of a book. Fairy/Flying type.
– Heartbreak: physical move. Doubles its base power when the foe is under infatuation. Learned by Jigglipuff, Wigglituff, Snubull, Grandbull, Skitty, Buneary, Lopunny, Purrloin and Liepard.
– Rainbow shot: special move. Can lower foe’s accuracy. Learned by Staryu, Starmie, Spoink, Grumpig, Mawile, Carbink and a new Pokemon line based on a pegasus. Also Fairy/Flying type.
– Shooting star: special move. Charges one turn, similar to Solar Beam. No more effects. Learned by Solrock, Lunatone, Metang, Metagross, Swirlix, Slurpuff and Sylveon.
– Fairy dust: status move. Same effect that Magnet Rise. Learned by Clefairy, Clefable, Spritzee, Aromatise and Klefki.
I’m guessing you don’t have a link to said German Pokemon forum?
I haven’t believed a leak since the fake Black and White starters. So have fun lol. ?
Yeah we don’t another Pre-XY IAMTHELEAKER sh*tstorm in the comments…
I doubt it but it’s still fun to speculate.
Anything without a link is automatically fake in my eyes. If you want to spark a conversation on potential new Pokemon moves, then just say so. You don’t have to claim that you got this information from somewhere random. And if you did, I’d appreciate it if you could link a source. 🙂
While clearly fake, I’m glad we’re getting fakes and people are able to speculate again 😀
Good try m8. With no link or any proof. It’s easily passed off a fake. We already had enough leaks with X/Y. Good try tho.
While these are clearly fake. It would be interesting to see some of these.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH NEW POKEMON obvious a damn fake
Not bad ideas, but I’m gonna have to say fake. We’re entering the time right b4 info is actually leaked and I wouldn’t b surprised if the usual dumps of garbage started making their ways back online by people who think it’s fun to post fake stuff. That being said I really do like rumors and stuff that’s made up by people lol
XDDD! Yeah, everything is fake. Sorry, I was kidding. I just want another generation soon. With lots of fairy moves, please.
BTW, I find speculating so funny… look how many people was avid about news… XD!
……Kill Him!!!!!!!
It’s HER, BTW!!!
I don’t discriminate
XDDD! Do not take it seriously. I planned to reveal it. I just wanted to mess around a bit. I remember how everyone was mad about leaks when XY appeared. It was so funny to hear such crazy news!
*cracks knuckles*
Well, at least you put some effort into those fakes moves and pokemon. The book butterfly actually might’ve been kinda cool
Well at least ‘I read it on a German forum’ is more original than the oks ‘my dad works for Nintendo…’ xD
honestly i don’t think smith meaning flower by this way i think he mean the crown chakra in yogi it’s the final stage of all chakras it comes after the 3rd eye it’s meaning spirituality and represented by lotus flower to understand what i mean u already noticed how GF focus on the third eye concept in the pokemon design like Hoopa and this silhouetted Zygarde and if look at top of a head of these two u notice something like flower opening . https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTAq_T_m-DDfzvR_pjF2OmlrAK0GXEAHOOvSt8NqIrwZdlKOqptiQhttp://www.powerfloweressences.com/shop/wpimages/lotus-card-lg-060311.jpg
if the pic above didn’t working
I really like that idea…mostly due to Xatu being my spirit animal. You could be very correct!
Do you know what i thought would be better off as a Fairy Move? Covet
According to Serebii.net and Pocketmonsters.net, Pokemon GetTV will be replaced by a new show called “Pokemon House Assemble?” starting on the first Sunday of October. GetTV was essentially the Gen VI variety show, the counterpart to Smash in Gen V and Sunday in Gen IV. Could this be a hint that the next games are going to be Gen VII?
Maaaaybe? Honestly I think the only reliable non-game non-official way of telling a new generation is near is by keeping an eye on the anime; if Ash is completing his circuit around Kalos then we might be due a new region. The anime is pretty much there to promote the games. Tbh I’d be very surprised if we get 7th gen next without any kind of return to Kalos.
Well Ash is almost at Olympia (the data broadcasts for october show a Meowstic as featured pokemon for one episode) so it could potentially end in the first half of next year
good news …….i hope the next show will be better but i don’t think so .
Pokemon Sunday was good, Smash and GetTV weren’t, so I’m wouldn’t get my hopes up.
actually i want to remember what the previous show name’s thanx for that .
Xatu ur the one who typing?
Gawd, we need a game announcement this month. Prolonged news droughts suck.
Seriously IT’S BEEN 3000 YEARS GF STOP TORTURING US.
Don’t forget that Zinnia is also named after a type of flower herself. ♥
From what I understand, most important characters have japanese names that are flower-related, so it might not be noteworthy. It’s worth noting however, that some Gen VI characters have flower-related English names as well, like Zinnia, Malva, Siebold and Lysandre
But… if characters have been getting named after flowers all along, then perhaps flowers are even more important to pokemon than we realize… ♥
Perhaps, I certainly hope so. 🙂 I think the flowers reference being a reference to Floette-E is the most likely theory, but I do hope Zinnia appears in ZX & ZY (Until they get an official name, this is what I’m calling the next games) even if it’s only so we find out who Aster is.
