These are probably not Pokémon you’ll see in Sun & Moon

Ah, the fresh smell of a new generation. So fresh. So crisp. But what’s that? That slightly burnt, mostly unpleasing odor I detect? FAKES LEAKS! All new games have their fair share of dubious screenshots, mock-ups and magazine pictures to ensnare unsuspecting fans into believing they’ve found unreleased information. Pokémon Sun & Moon, due this winter, have proven to be no exception and have already graced us with some fakes:

Any of them catch your eye? It’s alright to wish that maybe we would get a dolphin-like Water starter. Who knows? It could happen. Then again… so could another Fire/Fighting-type 😉

  1. I honestly want a platypus starter… What if the final evolutions were fire/Grass, water/fire, and grass/Water?

  2. So if GF goes with the Chinese zodiac with the fire starter which one is next ox, tiger, rabbit, snake, goat, or horse.

        • I pre-ordered Y at GameStop so I went and picked it up the night it came out. Then I ordered X from Amazon but they sent two copies! So I picked Fennekin for my Y and Froakie and Chespin for my X’s. I’m too OCD to let it remain a mystery. Plus, we have like 9 more months until the games come out, I’m not that patient. I like to get my teams in order and set up. It always changes, but I find it fun to go and create a team and edit it as info comes out and stuff.

    • My friend code is 3007-9158-7071 (Cosimo is the name on that one)… Anyone can add me, I love to battle Pokemon! I actually have two 3Ds’, the other one is 1779-0850-4141 (Jeff is that one’s name)

  5. While we all wait “patiently” for the leaks to come out… What types do we want the legends to be, and what are the concepts… To keep our minds occupied

  6. HUGE effort from an anonymous OP on 4chan by making this FAKE list. I like some of this though

    >New Type called Meta Type (メタイプ) and is only super effective against itself.

    >No old Pokémon will suffer reboot to Meta Type.

    >A new way of battle is called Meta Battle (メタ戦い) and has new trainers called Meta Trainers (メタ トレーナー) which can battle themselves against other Meta Trainers.

    >It’s confirmed that Magearna it’s a Meta Pokémon (メタポケモン) a Pokémon that can only battle on Meta Battles along with his trainers.

    >It’s confirmed that the new region name is Hauaiata Region (ハウアイアター地方) and is based on Hawaii.

    >Each Type will have a specific Meta Trainer protagonist that have a combination with some of the old types.

    >Some new Meta Pokémon will be revealed soon but no information further.

    >A new gang called Itazuwaru or Itazuaku is confirmed to be the rival gang (イタズ悪) that tries to control the Meta Power so then dominate Hauaiata Region.

    >The Meta Dex is confirmed to be an acessory to the normal Pokédex. Meta Pokémon starts from #001 again exactly the normal Pokédex. Magearna is #101 on Meta Dex.

    >Four new Gym Leaders until now. Akira (アキラ) is the only who I know information and is a Psychic Type Gym Leader a ganguro girl.

    >The story of the games are completely new.

    >The starters will be: Grass Type based on a saber-toothed Tiger and its final evo Grass/Rock. Fire Type based on ox and Fire/Steel since its second evolution. Water Type Hippo and Fighting Type on starters again with its last evolution.

    >A Water/Normal Dolphin Pokémon.

    >Johto Starters in the regional Dex with their megaevolutions.

    >Many, many even megaevolutions of Unova including Baivanilla.

    >No new eeveelutions or evolutions of old Pokémon.

    >Bug-Type now damages x1 Fairy-Type.

  7. Here’s one thing I’d like to hear your opinions on. What role do you think Solrock and Lunatone will play in Sun and Moon. It could be small like being game exclusives or big.

    Reply
  8. Hey guys! I’ve been visiting this site frequently over the past few years but never actually commented until now! I really dig this community! Anyways, anyone else wonder if we’ll get a new type with this gen? Could be the perfect time to introduce the fabled “space” type.

    Reply
    • Introducing a new type now is a horrible idea. I personally don’t think we’ll ever have a new type, the way it is now is pretty solid and balanced. But if we do get a new type, it won’t be for another couple of gens.

  9. It’s to hard to know how GF think but I should …..I am still thinking SM will based on norse for some reason look at this there is another white bird on the top of a tree I think it represent pkmn sun and look a the bottom of tree of life the is a well there called urd’s well ….I am reading so much about symbolism and I know th e well is a one of moon symbol …….or If u remember my previous theory when I am talking about the trio of Kalos should shifting their places Wat if Yveltal represent life and sun an Xerneas revresnt death and moon . http://36.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m13bpiNSrH1ql9cm2o1_r1_1280.png

  10. Okay all, it’s now the 10th in Asia… Which means the leak could come this afternoon for us in America… Fingers crossed!

      • It feels like we’ve been waiting forever to find out anything about Sun and Moon but it’s only been two weeks… We’ve still got a very long way to go until the holidays…

        Reply
          • Get ready for nothing lol while I really hope we at least get something small I also feel like if they wanted to show us anything more than the concept art they would have done so 2 weeks ago……..Fingers crossed we do in fact get something tho!

          • See, I think that now there’s all these fakes and they’ve revealed a bit of one of the Pokemon they’ll give us something. Mind you it may be nothing more than the region name, and this new woodpecker/Cardinal bird thing…

          • Not gonna lie I think the bird will likely b the first Pokemon they officially announce as a Sun and Moon Pokemon. Obviously Magearna will b, but for now they’ll focus on the movie for her.

          • Yeah it was always fun even when we got silhouettes. At least it’s something for people to talk about. Names alone are nothing to examine lol

          • I would almost rather have silhouettes, I love the speculation (when we have something to go off of).

    • Leaks typically happen in the mid day time for Japan so I wouldn’t expect anything for multiple more hours as it’s still early for them being 8:10 am. (If we do in fact get anything tonight)

      Reply
      • Well I’m in Southern California, so even if it’s still 5 hours away from being leaked, it’ll be early enough for me to see. With a few hours to spare

        Reply
        • Meh fair enough. It just seems like leaks tend to happen later atr night for me and I’m on the east coast lol

          Reply
      • It’s a mixture of both,

        Speaking of Disney there’s a upcoming movie I’m dying to see code named Gigantic

        • My favorite is the Incredibles. I cannot wait until the second one comes out, but I still have three years for that to happen…

          Reply
          • I bet the plot for Incredibles 2 will heavily focus on Bob and Helen now greatly elderly now must face a greater battle….retirement and letting the new age of heroes take the spot like and spoiler alert the new generation of heroes are kinda punk ass kids
            Probably Violet and Dash in their late twenties and Jack-Jack a budding super teen

          • Or maybe now that they became a closer family they have to battle empty nest syndrome and watch their kids go off to become their own supers

        • I saw the game trailer 2 day’s ago….I can’t deny …i love it at least we have something combined between each other.

  11. Corocoro probably won’t leak till tomorrow night, but if it leaks tonight, I’d say anywhere from 11:30-3am EST is likely.

    I also think we will get at least the legends as every issue that has come after one month of a game’s announcement, has given us that respective game’s box legends.

  12. Where does everybody go to find the fakes? I enjoy seeing what people. On up with, but I have no idea where to look

  13. I’m having an extremely tough time keeping my head above water in school right now, and I’ve been experiencing depression that I’ve never felt before, but I’m turning 17 tomorrow and I hope to find a little joy with my PokeJungle friends. I hope CoroCoro leaks tonight so we’ll have something exciting to talk about! Otherwise, I just hope to see all of my friends here, I really need it.

    • HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!! You are 17, you have so much joy and happiness to experience still. Don’t give up hope, as cliche as it sounds, the best years are still to come. You are going to have so much fun growing unto an adult, experiencing new and exciting things and living life.

    • Dude once you hit college your life gets better. I remember feeling, while never really depressed, not super great all the time when I was in high school, but once I got into college everything was better. All you need is one good professor to change your life and there are plenty of them around to learn from. Adulthood isn’t so hard. It can be difficult at times, but what’s most important is to never let life defeat you. Just know that you are stronger than any challenge that will come your way and you’ll come out ahead in the end. Right now you need to enjoy life to the fullest. Do it while you can bc later on you’ll have to make some decisions you may not want to make. Either way as long as you keep you head up you can always make the best out of a bad situation. Anyway that’s enough from this old codger. Happy Birthday!!! Try to enjoy yourself tomorrow. Don’t let life get you down on YOUR day. lol

      • ^ this accurately sums up everything. I’m only 19 still so I got a lot to learn about “adulthood” but this is accurate 100%

        Reply
    • Yes, being 22, and having twins, I can say, it gets better. Yeah, it can be tough now, I had really bad depression in high school, mediocre grades, and wasn’t even part of a community like this. We’ve got your back 🙂
      Also
      HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

    • Hey man, I remember feeling like you. In high school I often thought I wouldn’t make it, that I was too dumb for school because I couldn’t do it. Now I am 19 and in university studying law and, like Omega said, everything is better. It’s just tough to be 15, 16, 17, because everyone expects you to be a grown-up, yet you still aren’t. And that’s what you should remember. Because how many times people are telling you to act like an adult, just ignore them. Life files you plenty of time to be an adult. But not now. Now is the time to enjoy yourself and others. I hope you have a great birthday with a lot of leaks to discuss with us 🙂
