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 😉

Off topic, but… What do you guys think of these Riviera girl redesigns I’ve made?

I don’t know what it is, but it looks good.
Looks awesome I am new, and I saw this,and it looks awesome! 🙂
To keep us all occupied and thinking about other things than the leak… If you were a gym leader, what type and what Pokemon would you have? And, in what region?
I would want to have a dark type gym in the Unova region. I would have a Bisharp, a Zweilous, a Krookodile, and a Hydreigon.
Ehh not bad but that’s like 3 fully evolved Pokemon, you need to lowball a few
Sorry, I forgot that in he Unova region many Pokemon evolve much later. I will have to go with the 8th gym like you and do without the Hydreigon, switch out Zweilous for Mandibuzz, and settle for Krokorok. The TM would be TM 95 Snarl
Dark gym is awesome, and Unova is my favorite region, that and Kalos (because I love France)
I am really hoping there is going to be a dark gym in this new batch of games. Who knows, it might be a version exclusive with the dark-type gym being exclusive to Pokemon Moon.
Never gonna happen
Both things
I think it is possible for the first thing to happen, although, I would just be grasping at straws at this point in time to in saying the second option to be possible.
Version exclusive gyms would be infinitely impossible, they try to make versions sole differences be items and Pokemon, maybe different architecture but something like that would never work
Why wouldn’t it work? It’s easy to separate content over games (just look at Fire Emblem Fates). They could easily put a Dark-Type Gym in Moon and a Psychic-Type Gym in Sun. Why would it inherently be a problem? I don’t see it destroying the code of the game. It would add a larger difference between either version if you ask me.
It actually would be a really cool idea… Different gyms, different cities, but same story… Like how the TV show is, where Ash and his rivals all go to different cities and have different badges…
There has been version exclusive gyms back in the first batch of 5th gen games. They were exclusive in who the gym leader was. It would, in my opinion, say it would be infinitely impossible for version exclusive gyms as a far stretch. The version excludsive based on type may work if that gym is heavily involved in the legendary plot line and the cover legendaries have different types.
Drayden and Iris still had the same gym, same puzzle and same team with only difference was the gym leaders themselves and gender
That is still a version exclusive, albeit a small one, I am just making the point that it sets precedent for version exclusive gyms of that degree and possibly greater in future games.
*cough* drayden and iris *cough*
Literally live like this everyday
Ground
Signiture Pokemon Rhyperior
I won’t settle for anything less then Gym leader number 8
I would love nothing more then a full six on six battle to the death but new gym leader regulations prohibit me to 3
Rhyperior
Excadrill
Rhyhorn
And I would begrudgingly give trainers who *grrr* beat me with the Terrain Badge and a TM of my personal design TM 26 EARTHQUAKE
And what region is this gym in?
Well that’s a good question, I’m a stickler for traditions
Technically I’m from Unova
But I firmly believe in native Signiture Pokemon
It’s a tough call for me… I love both Dark and Ice types… There are more Ice type gyms, so for that reason I would go with a Dark type gym. This would be in the Unova region, or Kalos region, I like Unova because of Samurott and it takes place in America, but I love France…
Nova Dark Gym:
Zorua
Weavile
Umbreon
Kilos Dark Gym:
Pangoro
Weavike
Umbreon
TM Given:
Dark Pulse
Gym Badge:
Night Badge (but I’m open to the name…)
Hmm… I would love to either be a Dragon-Type or Water-Type Leader. I’m likely be in either Kalos or Sinnoh. I’d use a Garchomp or Gyarados as my main Pokemon.
That’s tough… I don’t really have a favourite type.
Maybe Dark type in Kalos with Tyranitar, Pangoro and Umbreon ^.^
I would probably take over for price as an ice type gym leader in Johto. I would have Froslass, Lapras and Weavile
What if the legendaries are none other than Volcanion and Magearna?
Would make sense… Sun is Volcanion and Moon is Magearna… But, it’s weird that he was introduced in X & Y (sort of) and Sun and water don’t really mesh.
Sun + water = beach ==> Hawaii lol
I kinda hope it’s not Hawaii, unless they’re featuring one island. I don’t like all the surfing from one island to the next and all the surfer you have to do in the Hoehn region
I’m actually hoping it’s Italy due to the Leo DaVinci like character in the movie trailer. Goodnight!
The force of the leaks grow stronger. CoroCoro is only a few days away! LET THEM COME DIRECTLY TO US!
Ugh that tears it I’m going to bed and see if we get it in the morning
Okay, this is probably totally fake, but it looks really cool… I wasn’t a huge Trevenant fan, but if he gets a mega (not sure why he would over a bunch of other options) but this is a cool idea.
It looks cool, but that means no Harvest
Without Harvest Trevenant is utter crap
What pages and sites are we all refreshing every minute in hopes a Corocoro leak pops up?
I’d say Serebii. They usually update the quickest compared to PokeJungle and PokeBeach.
Okay. I think the time has come where I need to give up the refreshing and call it a night. I’m bummed I didn’t get to experience a leak with you all. Maybe if one pops up before I go to bed ill come back and see what everyone thinks. Until then, good night my fellow pokegeeks!
Goodnight!
I feel like I’m going to wake up to leaks. I hope so, because I don’t want to look forward to the 15th and rush my spring break.

Uh no thanks
Nintendo and Gamefreak are trolling us at this point.
I think mobile games in general are troll attempts
Tell me about it ? I’m really hoping this months CoroCoro is not about this.
I thought of something. Why not have the same 8 gym leaders in the region, but not knowing which one comes next? Every time you play the game, the gym leaders hussle and every time you enter a gym, it’s the first time you actually know what gym leader is inside and what their type is.
I really they right this wrong in Sun and Moon
Mega Machamp
Now typing is a bit fickle, the obvious choice is Pure Fighting or even Fighting/Dark to fight back the oppressive brain that is psychic types just that just sets it up for a bigger fall with those stupid fairies
Fighting/Steel might fix this but it’s still a hard sell logic wise (Muscles turning into a metallic alloy just doesn’t fit the bill) and even less steel moves to work with Bullet Punch and Heavy Slam (And I’m not the kind to pour on moves just to benefit the mega)
Some even pitched the idea of Fighting/Dragon, though insane it’s still cool
So ignoring type next would be the age old question: How many Arms?
Many speculate that a Mega Machamp would grow six pairs or arms while some would even go 8. I had a thought of both arms fusing together back into two jobs just longer and beefier.
Finally stat distribution and ability
Now the OG King of Physical Attacking deserves only the best of stats
Now I’m not a wiz for doing mega stat addictions but I will absolutely destroy a good portion of his Sp. Attack to make him a feared wallbreaker
If Beedrill can get away with a 130 attack boost with a sacrifice to sp to make it a 100 base increase so could Mega Machamp
As for an ability there are many ways that could either make or break his strategy, some heavily rely on No Guard Dynamic Punches though powerful I often fear some will try to quickly end his career with stat crippling so I’m a Guts Man. But if I wanted to obliterate the whole world I would give it a base 185 attack WITH HUGE POWER shattering the scales so even a burn won’t stop it
Just so many possibilities for this overlooked Goliath
What about Fighting/Rock type? It looks like it’s body is made up of rocks or something similar
Anything???? I don’t see any leaks… ???
So I know this is fake, but I can totally get behind these starters… If they were real. I know we just had a fire fox starter, but this peacock grass fox thing is pretty cool looking, along with the water… If they were real, it’d be the first time I didn’t pick a fire starter!
i feel all pokemon specie. top like music color. middle like mixed minerals. left like fur moth. right like bunny or rabbit. down than right like lemur.
left end like Dunsparce evolve. other right like native American dance bird.
I believe that the mid Rowlet evolution at the bottom is the real deal, as I compaired it to it’s final evolution.
Now, before Rowlet made itself known to us, and just after the leaks of it’s japanese name was revealed, there was this picture on the top left corner of this picture going around throughout the internet, along with two more, though not colored, which were at first thought to have been the starter Pokemon, only to find out when Rowlet finally appeared to be false. It wasn’t until the picture of the owl Pokemon, full bodied and standing right next to Rowlet was leaked that it had lead me to believe that it was actually in fact it’s mid evolution. It was shown by some fan when comparing it’s facial expression on the fake hooded assassin’s creed final evolution that accompanied the Panther Litten and scary clown Popplio fake evolutions, trying to prove of it being real. However, it wasn’t long until the artist’s take on the mid evolutions showed up, and threw this mid evolution off the curve, or so they thought, until I decided to do some research with it’s supposed final evolution leak, Robinroot that has recently showed up. Like comparing the mid evolution with the fake, I also did the facial expression comparison with the mid evolution with Robinroot. By closer examination, I realised along with a user who was curious with my other picture comparisons, that the eyes and beak are of a similar shape and eye color, and the tuffs at the back of Robinroot’s hood is similar to that of the mid evo’s. So what that means is that Rowlet’s bow tie when evolving will end up becoming the mid evo’s coat, and when evolving again into Robinroot would become it’s hood, ending with a new red tie. Another thing to point out that seems to make sense is it’s tail, as like Rowlet’s is always green in color.
So, if we have to believe that the mid evolution is genuine, then if we have to believe that the leaks were real, then the other two Pokemon could be Copybara and the Dolphin Pokemon.
Anyway, I’m just wanting to show you of what you think of this theory, and what do you think about Rowlet’s mid evolution.
