RUMOR ALERT: The information contained in this post is based on speculation, not fact. Please treat it as such and do not interpret it is confirmed news.
A user on an anonymous image board has posted what purports to be the full Alolan Pokédex, excluding new “Alolan forms” of previously released Pokémon. If it is correct, there are 103 new Pokémon in the Alola region which would be 30 more new Pokémon than X & Y and roughly the same amount as Gold & Silver. There are, however, many evolution families listed which appear to have different forms for the same Pokémon.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Screw. The. Leakers. I will not be covering the names or any other information about this “leak” because there is too much risk considering the advanced information that has already made its way to the public from the Chinese rumors. We’re still too far away from the release of these games to ruin everything for fans. There’s a difference between enjoying speculation and rumors (which we do) and spoiling everything online (which they do). There is a line of what I think is fun pre-release hype and what is stupidly early to reveal, and I think this is one of those things that crosses that for me. Hope you guys understand and perhaps even agree. If we hadn’t gotten such credible leaks this year I’d have no qualms about posting it for dissection.

FEATURED DISCUSSION: What Are You Listening To?
sorry I’m kinda late to the party. ive read the list, seems pretty cool. was anything else leaked, details and such, or was it just the list? I see moving’s featured comment, but cant find anything on these details.
I just want to take a moment to say that GF is shaking up the meta game so much with this gen. I mean, look at the new abilities. Nearly all of them have competitive viability. Not to mention that Z moves will make things so much more balanced, because fairies won’t have as much presence. Not only that, but a lot of the new Pokemon will shake up the meta game as well. Look at oricorio. With the right stats, that thing will be a beast. It’ll have access to 4 different learnsets, and it’ll copy all the dance moves. And if the breeding cat is real, it’ll make things much more interesting. I really applaud GF, gen 7 meta game looks to be one of the best we’ve had yet.
Why does the z move mechanic limit fairy’s presence?
A lot of Pokemon learn the move Toxic through TM. This they can also learn the poison z-move. It was mentioned in one of the Gamexplain discussion videos as well.
That is, I’d the z move doesn’t depend on the pokemon’s typing.
It doesn’t, they’ve said that any Pokemon can use the move if they have that type of move.
Except you can only use the Z move once, so it’s only good for one K.O.
I feel I miss many things ….just for worming up another nunchaku Alkazam. http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1470591082180.jpg
That actually seems pretty cool!
Cool, but makes no sense in terms of adaptation. I was kind of hoping they wouldn’t just “pokemon logic” this whole new mechanic.
It’s focusing on honing it’s spiritual side through martial arts instead of psychic powers.
Eh, but why? It isn’t logical to me, even if the concept is cool. Adaptation is supposed to be to environmental change, hence why Vulpix evolved to be ice type when introduced to cold climate over long periods of time.
maybe someone bred it to be this way? like dogs and their breeds in real life.
Idk. Hopefully they have good reasoning if real.
well how does a dragon tree become a psychic tree by moving to japan? I hope Alolan Exeggcute are Literal Dragon Eggs though.
I think the dragon type is more taken from the name of the species, but I get that it doesn’t really make sense when you think about it as a type adaptation.
but what are your thoughts on LITERAL Dragon Eggs?
Like the cucumbers? I honestly never heard of them till you brought it up
no like how with alolan exeggcute they could be Grass/Dragon Eggs!
Ohhh hahahaha. Idk! I think they might make a form for it. Apparently there are such things as “dragon’s egg cucumbers” though that sort of even look like Exeggcute when piled together.
OMG i’m totally Joseph Joestaring over this fact.
I wanna take u guys tho, for accepting me back in even when i did some really bad things in the past.
I don’t remember you at all! hello!
how long have u been here?
during the x and y speculation and pre release.
oh MacSkiddo,GovnahSkiddo was my old name
yes I remember you! you had a skiddo wearing an eye patch as an avatar, which always reminded me of The Walking Dead!
that was the joke 😀 Govnah was Governor
I guess it helps that I don’t particularly remember what you did lol
I don’t really remember what you did, but I’m happy you’re back 🙂
welcome back I remember you (my name was different back then) but it seems that this alleged thing you did people don’t seem to remember, myself included so I think you’re good lol, welcome back and I hope you stay this time 🙂
I’m looking at this, and they match up with some leaks posted earlier (or at least those started types do)
Take a look:

this list shows …….deleted.. http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1470611296020.jpg
Where does it list the ability? I don’t see it.
Just an error.
will you fix it
I think ….just enjoy with these color ok?
I really hope they reveal the stat of all pkmn and ability before the official release …cuz i want to build my team before starting up but that seems impossible.
it’s my first official game after all.

Game Freak would probably be going like this if they’ve known
How many times has this been posted? I’ve seen this video in these comments about a million times o-o
I just realized something: we should get a ghost normal type that is a ghost possesing a substitute doll!
my idea for normal/ghost (always the primary typing for normal types, as far as I’m aware) was a cat based on the Schrodinger’s cat experiment. i’ll see if I can find a fakemon I really liked.
I just looked up the experiment. Maybe I’m stupid but I don’t get it. Why isn’t the cat dead?
Because there is still a chance that the element didn’t decay and the poison wasn’t released.
its a paradox, (and kinda nonsense) basically, its says that, since there is no way for anyone to know if the cat is alive or dead without looking into the box, so long as that information is unknown, the cat is considered BOTH alive and dead at the sametime. anyways, I posted a link above to the fakemon I like based on it.
It’s how Leonard got a date with Penny.
But just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean that it is both alive and dead. I’m so confused, but the fakemon is cool.
It’s quantum physics, it doesn’t work by human common sense.
there’s a minecraft mod about it.
Still don’t get it, but at this point, I don’t think I ever will.
because until you open the box to check it could be either.
If you want a more relatable example, look up Schrodinger’s Pokéball! hahaha
Yes….THIS!
That had been my idea for one of Missignos forms in my ideal world where it’s officialised :p
I’m reading the above article, and it says “including leaks of alolan forms of previous pokemon” but I cant find them, anyone have a link to this specific segment or am I just blind as usual?
I think it was an error.
I suppose the Robinroot Grass/Flying, Beltigre Fire/Dark and Sirene Water/Fairy are their main ordinary types if they have to follow the traditional path of the Starters.
Beltigre should be more black if it Fire/Dark type like this …I agree with the rest.
here https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRux4p3SQUYUrGwSQh24ZvOErweRv6HPGZ0NSOJzPP5nw5Gon2aTw ive never shared a picture here before, I hope this works. Pawradox, by SweetKimothy on DeviantArt
That’s schrodinger cat concept not bad …..I like physics.
yeah it didn’t post the picture like I wanted
Imagine if its ability was paradox or something similar and what it does is that when it faints for the first time theres a 50/50 chance of it regaining its health back sort how scrodingers cat was dead and alive at the same time
Or maybe a 50% effective sturdy of sorts.
or maybe it has an accuracy ability like sand veil
Yeah!
Yeah that is more balanced and less broken than my idea haha
Almost done with Alola Shiny Predicts 4. Should be done soon
Stop leaking things
(ok this was just a joke :P)
who made this XD
haha myself
im impressed
well here you guys go, my Shiny Predictions for Yungoos line, Alolan Sandscrew line, Drampa,Bounsweet and Salandit http://i.imgur.com/G88Vm8Y.jpg
I’m honestly considering catching an A-Sandshrew and naming it Iglew
Igloo? 😛
because Sandshrew rhymes with Igloo.
Ah I was wondering if it was a pun lol
I am a disciple of E. R. R.-B.
No I was offering the correct spelling, unless that’s how you intended to spell it lol
Sandshrew ends with ew… it’s a pun.
Ah, I see now
Yes! Ever since i saw it i was like cool its wearing a little igloo shell haha
I really like the Gumshoos!
I like that bounsweet one a lot, and the sandshrew/slash
i was gonna include vulpix but white is a hard color to mess around with it
off topic, but anyone hear about the new leaf update this fall?
Regrettably. I was hoping the amiibo support for a main series game would’ve been on NX.
well NX isn’t out until March and this could be testing for it. I really hope they keep the name NX, the Wii probably would have been better received if they kept it as Revolution, or the Wii U as Project Cafe.
I doubt it’ll be the NX. I just hope they drop the Wii name. It was one of the Wii U’s flaws.
They really should keep it at this point since that’s what everyone knows it as, I’m thinking it might be short for “Nintendo eXperience”
I think it’s the Nintendo NeXt.
that would be good as well.
Yeah, seems fun 🙂
The comic on tumblr was weird since it used Monique, who’s apparently not that popular.
I don’t know if this has been posted here, but I found this fanart on reddit http://img08.deviantart.net/f715/i/2016/220/0/4/robingroot_by_zacharybla-dad3oyx.jpg
Artist: http://zacharybla.deviantart.com/art/ROBINGROOT-626669097
I didn’t know how he can fly and fire this arrows at the same time.
would you say he’s… flyering his arrows?
come on! anyone, anyone, bueller? who killed a guy.
I think he flew up and then turned and fired an arrow. That or jumped.
And on Deviantart, it is truly splended. I’m guessing this is it’s ordinary Grass/Flying Type evolution of Robinroot.
Has the leak been confirmed?
not yet, but it will sometime. In the meantime, Robinroot is it’s beta name before it’s full official reveal.
Robinroot is definitely my choice.
I’m goin with Wrestlecat myself.
I’m going for all three of them.
anyone here played the full release of AM2R Yet, it’ll probably be C&D’d soon enough.
I haven’t played it but have heard great things. It’s a shame if it’s C&D’d because it’s the best Metroid game in a decade.
The thing nintendo should do is hire this guy and help him release an eshop version, i’m fine with the pc version going down if they do that.
also Pokemon Uranium 1.0 is out yesterday as well.
I got my nicknames for my starters
Rowlet is Marquis
Litten is Hercule
Poppilo is Pappilo (The great Pappilo )
Papyrus would totally have a popplio. I also thought it was pronounced Pap-ear-us until Undertale came out, same thing with Undine, I thought it was Un-dine likeUndyne but it’s actually Oon-Deen
Rowlet -Hedwig or Rowling
Litten -Ricky
Popplio -Ariel or Sierra
Rowlet will forever be Moist Rowlette. I know it won’t fit so it’ll be MoistRowlett.
Is the Rowlet name a reference to what I think it is?
Pokemon Uranium 1.0 is out as of Yesterday. anyone play it?
The idea of various type depend on wat the island u evolving on is not logical at all, ppl forget about Darline/Darwisker they r Normal/Anything that didn’t work on this theory.
I prefer to go up with this: there form will change by specific types of Z-stones Like Dark, Fire, Ghost, poison Z-stones for Beltigre ….etc.
I just notice these starers r really not that colorful so the form didn’t change that much but it will be more colorful depend on his current type.
I should mention that TheRece25 made A theory looks very similar to my second part.
more leaks
https://twitter.com/metaunicorn/status/762456591505379329
Diglett, the mole pokemon, alolan diglett are known for their incredibley lon.. OH MY GOD NO, WE GONNA DIE!
too much sun hahaha
everything is bigger in Alola
now it can learn *Head Smash* and is Ground/Flying
Now it can learn OMG IT’S LEARNIN WE GON DIE!
obvious fake if I’ve ever seen one
U should notice that was a joke.
Looks like Game freaks likes to make long necks now. Who is the next one
Girafarig obviously.
Anybody Play Uranium 1.0, WHICH CAME OUT YESTERDAY?
Just started playing it. It’s kinda weird hahaha
They should fix the starters though.
how so? you just pick the colored questions. Unless your Colorblind, in which case they are in the same positions each question.
My english is simple wat did u mean colored questions?
R u trying to be bad person punk …..don’t mess with evil then.
Especially since i’m pretty sure you(obvious) and theo’s(less obvious) dads are from SoA
What? hahaha Sons of Anarchy?
Shadows of Almia. literally the Male PC and Rival/BFF Fellow guy who gets promoted, guy who you have to save his ass in the desert that one time.
Oh……that makes more sense hahaha
Si, Mas sense.
Is this a game?
a fangame actually.
oh ok
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSS!!!!
Ok. Here’s something I wanted to point out. I still have hopes the the Chinese Leaks won’t be true, so….. look at this picture. Look at Popplio’s pose. Doesn’t it look like it’s won a fight? (Or at least did something skillful). I really hope I get my Water/Fighting Popplio, but honestly, the Popplio evo doesn’t bother me. Litten’s does. But if Popplio’s changes. Litten and Rowlet’s will too. Robinroot is my favorite out of the 3, but it could be better…
i mean, thats the whole concept of the pokemon games though is fighting so i don’t see how even if that was its “i just won a fight pose” would mean its fated to be water/fighting, but we still don’t know, hang in there green! we’ll get more info eventually 😛
Not even close
Popplio is a natural performer, they always turn a battle into a show, they show a need to look triumphant or to strike a pose to impress the audience
So popplio specializes on pokemon contests then?
Or battles
Popplio love to battle with flashy moves, especially with their water balloons
They just are creative battlers
Oh ok then makes sense that i would evolve into a mermaid that likes to show off
….? yeah but that doesn’t make it water/fighting…. ? if anything that points more to confirming the water/fairy leak
That means jack squat
You just fail to see that not every single effing emote is labeled a type, you’d probably assume Vigoroth would be fighting just for flailing its arms like a psycho
who are you trying to convince? me or you?
“You just fail to see that not every single effing emote is labeled a type”
ok then? but isn’t that what you were saying in your previous comment? my first comment was just saying that I don’t think its battle style makes it into a fighting type based on that, and you said I was wrong so I reinforced my opinion by saying if anything if its going to point to a type it would be fairy, not that it will be, because i still don’t think its fighting style equates to anything significant… so like, are you just looking for a fight here or are you just being an idiot?
My apologies I thought that said
“Doesn’t that make it a Water/Fighting type”
its all good
No it ain’t
Yeah. Honestly, I don’t believe leaks until GameFreak reveals them.
I wouldnt believe them but since mallow is drawn in them then i just cant argue with facts even though i really wanted litten to be quadrepedal, why game freak, why is it so hard to make a starter stay quadrupedal these days
tbh I believe the leaks but I also am taking these new various evolutions thing as a possible real leak as well, it seems that forms and evolutions are already a really big thing in these games so I wouldn’t see it being too much of a stretch, and if they are real, one of them is bound to be quadrupedal
True….
I was cool when it was Typhlosion and Blaziken and Infernape, but there are literally no Quadruped Fire Type Starters
So while doing some reading on Sun and Moon’s development and after hearing about the Pokemon NX rumor I thought of something potentially interesting.
Sun and Moon are not being directed my Junichi Masuda. I forget the guy’s name who is directing them but it’s his first outing which may account for the new ideas and direction of the games. But then that makes me wonder, if Masuda isn’t directing Sun and Moon then what IS he doing?
Sun and Moon are huge games so it would be kind of strange to hand over directing responsibilities to someone new on such a big project unless Masuda was directing a much larger project. That project potentially being the one rumored to be on NX. I think that rumor might have some credibility due to this…
I apologize for the wall of text lol, when my mind gets going I just have to write my ideas down!
Wow, nice one, logic is one of your strengths
I’m going to assume you’re not being sarcastic lol so thank you!
You can never really tell online ya know?
Well, I know, and I was not sarcastic, that was a really good way of thinking, i liked
Thank you! Ideas just come to me lol
I believe Masuda is doing something else in SM, like executive something I don’t really remember.
As long as he makes the sound track its all good haha
I’m aware that he’s still working on the S/M just not directing. But I don’t think he’s just not directing anything. He has to be paid for something lol.
Masuda will probably only be designing, drawing or composing???
Shigeru Ohmori, basically his number 2 for a lot of recent games (and the one who directed ORAS) is now directing. Masuda wanted to take a bit of a back seat to let slightly younger blood express their creative mind.
I really appreciate that! More game studios should do that and not always simply stick with traditions!
Sun and Moon have made me more excited for a Pokemon game than I think I’ve ever been! And I’ve been playing these since red and blue lol
Ehem Call of Duty.
Baile: Robinroot will be Grass/Ground, Beltigre will be Fire, Sirene will be Water/Fighting
Pa’u: Robinroot will be Grass, Beltigre will be Fire/Poison, Sirene will be Water/Psychic,
(Island with Pom Pom Oricorio): Robinroot will be Grass/Electric, Beltigre will be Fire/Dark, Sirene will be Water
Sensu: Robinroot will be Grass/Flying, Beltigre will be Fire/Ghost, Sirene will be Water/Fairy
That’s the closest I’ve got for a guess to the evolution for the starters.
