Although the official new trailers are expected tomorrow, someone it seems has gotten their hands on an early version of the video and leaked some of its contents.
- Pyukumuku is the English name for Namakobushi and is a pure Water-type with the ability Innards Out
- Alolan Raichu is now Electric/Psychic with the ability Surge Surfer which doubles its speed on Electric Terrain
- Morelull is a new Grass/Fairy-type Pokémon with the abilities Illuminate & Effect Spore
- Team Skull keeps its name from the Japanese versions and is led by Guzma, with Plumeria being a Team Admin.
- Alolan Meowth is a Dark-type with the abilities Pick-up & Technician
- Wishiwashi is the English name for Yowashi and its new ability is Schooling which activates when something reaches a certain level (HP? Stats?)
- Alolan Marowak is now Fire/Ghost-type and has the abilities Lightning Rod & Cursed Body

FEATURED DISCUSSION: Which Evil Team Would You Intern for?



















Kukui and Team Skull Leader Guzma!!
http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1470865983270.jpg
Hey Doc Brown
Guzma’s design is delicious af
Could…they be related?!
i was thinking that before.
wow. MC Hammer pants eh
What the heck does that mean?
Hmm odd, he doesn’t seem to have a z ring
Hmmm…that statement. Could he have a history with Kukui.
Maybe he turned evil cos he lost out at becoming a trial captain.
Interesting.
he looks like a raper xD
That (a raper) sounds dangerous.
I already like him he seems so badass and doesn’t give any fucks
Whoa turn down the edge
So presumably Kukui wanted to be a Captain once before becoming the professor
‘Fellow rejects’ suggests they both wanted to be captain at one point
its like captain Phillips now
I’d like to point out that his marking [on his left arm] is purple, and Plumeria’s is pink. We’ve been speculating that the islands are represented by colors, which include purple and pink!
Y they made it looks like a punk ….that make Team Skull looks like a gang more than organization.
And thats original and makes this team seem cool xD
Its a relaxing and chill region, the antagonists reflect this. I mean you can hardly expect an evil team to work full capacity in head to toe jumpsuits
Lol. They’re gonna get beat so hard!
Aren’t they supposed to be a gang? I thought I read that somewhere, but I could be mistaken.
Yes and thats a good thing
Poor third wheel grunt in the back corner waiting till the conversation stops
Wow, the story potentials <3 AHHHH
Doesn’t look like a leader of pirates, sadly. More like a street gang leader.
Why is he dressed like a rapper??
This might actually explain Alolan Meowth’s typing if Alolan Pikachu is also a Psychic type. Remember what people originally kept cats for.
I usually enjoy leaks but we were so close to these being revealed officially, I’m kinda sad someone couldn’t wait just 1 more day xD
I just wanted to say…. Did you see where that Gyarados-Wishiwashi battle was. That background tho….
OMG the water looks amazing!!!! I can’t wait to see more battle scenery!! lol
I’m so glad they removed circles
Me too. It looks more natural now lol
Game looks incredible for a handheld title. Exceeded all of my expectations.
Wow all the comments and sire overload is crashing my iPad
Cause Apple is dogshit
If dogshit makes money, then Apple are Geniuses.
So are these currently leaking? As in there may be more than what we’ve seen so far?
I think so, Chip just posted the leader, which I hadn’t seen before.
Yeah, I saw that, and it’s why I asked. I just don’t understand why we’re just getting bits and pieces. It feels like whoever is leaking them is toying with us.
I agree because we only have a potion of a trailer and a bunch of pictures.
I mean yeah sure. All the pcis we’ve seen are just little bits fro the trailer. We still need battle scene (other than Wishiwashi) too
This is it:
New:
Wishiwashi (Solo Form)
Wishiwashi (School Form)
Pyukumuku
Morelull
Team Skull Grunts:
Plumeria
Guzma
New Alola Forms:
Meowth
Marowak
Raichu
I can’t handle… too many leaks… gonna give up…
LOL Technically its just one leak, there just uploading there screen shots really slowly. 😀
You can do this. Just 2 more days till they release the trailer
Ok ok… Crazy theory.. Remember the manga special that got announced, what if that boy is a young Guzma and he competed in the trials. The both have goggles and similar hood in the back. And maybe his rival at that age was Kukui
Want to know more about Guzma, strikes me as someone with an interesting back story.
I’m surprised people are surprised about the amount of fairies, it’s like one of the rarest types rn and only came out last Gen, so it needs to play catch up.
Also, Hawaii is really a spiritual place to draw concepts from, so ghost and fairy are really appropriate types to pick from.
People are more concerned with the fact they they just tend to tack Fairy onto anything. If there is a legit reason for something to be Fairy, I don’t thinks anyone would mind.
There’s playing catch-up and then they’re forcing it down our throats.
Personally I think GF can do whatever they please.
There are more Fairy types than both Ghost and Ice. Ghost and Ice have been around since Gen 1. This is a problem.
Ghosts are often associated with Darkness and Ice Types seem very biome dependent, hence why there’s less.
We’re going to get along just fine XD
Hi! You seem to have good taste :p
3rd rarest, Ice and Ghost are rarer
That’s still pretty rare, especially since Fairy looks like its going to be a Electric, Grass, etc level rarity seeing as it’s being given to a wide variety of Pokémon strength and availability wise.
grass isn’t rare, Id go more fire level, we actually have very few fire pokemon compared to some of the other big types
Yeah I do think it could end up Fire level rare, its just that so far they’re really easy to find, in XY and ORAS you find your first Fairy before the first Gym and it’s seemingly already a starter type 1 Gen after introduction.
It won’t be 3rd rarest after factoring in all the new Alolan additions though.
Besides, something has to be rarest unless they’re all perfectly balanced.
Yeah, I definitely don’t think Fairy will remain rare after Alola.
Tbh its supposed ‘rarity’ never bothered me. Fairies and Dragons (and to a lesser extent Ghosts) are mythical, they’re supposed to be rare.
Besides which, there’s still a decent number of fairies available, the only thing Fairy is lacking is a few type combinations like Fairy/Fire. Fairy/Grass, Fairy/Water and Fairy/Electric are all already available.
this pics are leaking and that one piece. will the whole trailer leak soon XD
its possible for the trailer to leak early like they did with drampa and friends
Only time will tell
Frame by Frame it looks that way
so someone has it.
Well it seems like the Chinese leak has certainly proven themselves to be true on their word.
All we need now is the Snowman, the Dolphin, and the Rugby Monkey to finally reveal themselves.
Not to mention the proper reveal of the final and mid evolve forms of the starters.
Only time will tell.
We need our harambe pokemon
Digletts out for Harambe
Innards out(the sea cucumber ability) for harambe
Can someone link me this pokedex? I still didnt see it :/
don’t bother, it’s proven fake anyway.
I mean the chinese leak then -________-
Chinese leak aint a pokedex sir
hyc

It was proven fake due to he existence of baby bewear
And he admitted it lol.
I love it and I love that shallow water battle field when it was battling Gyarados!
They completely abandoned grass type in this generation. They all so far look competitive useless and generic, like they’re there just to fill in the dex. And with a grass starter grass/flying (aka death sentence) grass lovers are screwed.
ps: really like the sassy girl though.
Fire/Flying was also presumed to be a death sentence.
I have been feeling the same way about them as well. It’s making it very hard to choose a grass Pokemon to add to my team. I might just actually choose something else.
I think i’m doing the same.
Grass/fighting has so many weaknesses. Yet Chesnaught is OU due to stays and moves. Gotta wait to see what happens
I really like wishiwashi school animations, it actually looks like many fishes working together and not just a giant blob of nonsense
At this point it seems more like a marketing tactic rather than a mistake. Remember how much exposure the last “leaked” trailer received? It trended on Twitter and Facebook for days, with it actually reaching the top spot on Facebook and the Japanese trailer received more than 2 million views during its first 24 hours of release.
Lol. Right. Cuz s lot of people would be fired by now
Maybe the leakers who got fired and are now leaking information are the ones responsible for the leak of the last trailer. 😛
I was so excited for this game but every leak/trailer they keep desapointing me with these terrible designs…I know that most fans now days only care about the typing and they will accept anything as long as it has a good types, but these looks very bad, I feel like its a reboot for the franchise, a bad one too, the new pokemon are way too cute to fit in with the others…now raichu is even cuter than pichu…god this is awfull.
I like them personally, and I don’t care about competitiveness. From an artist’s viewpoint each design is unique and every detail well thought out. Of course, you’re entitled to your opinion, but these are far from terrible.
from an artist point of view they are going too cute to the point that made the new pokemon looks like something from another franchise more than a contenuety.
Designs and artists abilities change over time. No matter how you look at it, the style in Gen 1 are overall very different to the styles in Gen 2, which are in turn different to Gen 3 and so on.
It’s been over 20 years, the way things are done are bound to change. I was thinking about this myself the other day.
The Pokemon from each generation have a specific style to them, and they differ from generation to generation.
You can actually tell when you look at all 721 Pokemon in order in one collective image.
the new pokemon looks like something out of megaman
thats none sense, sugimori didnt change his style much, if you check his personal artwork he still draw in the same old detailed style, he only change the style of pokemon
Dude 20 years is a long time. No one remains the same in 20 years, it’s nearly impossible. Loads of factors come into play, which will affect the art style. From Gen 1-2 you may not notice, but the bigger the gap between gens, the more noticeable it becomes.
why dont you check his twitter ?? there is a huge diference between improving your style, and making it “cute”
I didn’t say improving. I said it changes over time.
Whether better or worse is subjective.
sorry but thats nonsense, this is not how art work, sugimori did improved a lot, especially in figure drawings wich is why I find it odd that he dont do the same with pokemon
Ok, I’m not gonna say anything more on the matter. Ive said what I think, and I’m gonna leave it at that.
I’m going to say this with all due respect, but please stop saying they’re cute. That’s subjective, and while you are entitled to your opinion, you are ignoring every argument against you. One can’t argue properly just by rehashing previously made points, and not acknowledging the slight possibility that your opinion might be swayed.
personally I don’t understand how cute= bad to this person 😛 I feel like we’ve slipped into some bizarre world
Cute is again subjective. I find some of these appealing…some of them I don’t.
Drampa, Bruxish, Salandit, Mudbray, Mudsdale are far from cute in my opinion.
Also majority of what have been revealed are base stages, which tend to be cute anyway.
he is making it cute for pokemon, not just the pokemon designs but they are going with a very cute style overall but its hitting the pokemon so hard
Of course they’re cute. We’re mostly looking at beginning Pokemon. Back in the XY days most of the first Pokemon revealed were ‘cute’ because they were meant to appeal to beginning trainers. Besides, there are several that aren’t cute (although it’s subjective): Mudsdale, Gumshoos, Bruxish, Wishiwashi (school form), Tapu Koko, etc.
they even redesigned raichu to make him even more cuter to fit in wiith the new style
most people I see love most of the designs this gen, and it looks like its going to be an amazing game, looks like you’re the odd one out, sorry about that…
like I said they dont love the design they love the types, most people that I see say that they love the designs to piss off the so called genwunners
lol, I don’t think so, a lot of people love the designs, not because of the types, myself included. I don’t know where you’re making these assumptions from…?
Shhhhh they might hear you 😉
I’m unsure how to comprehend this as the beginning and end are contradictory to say the least.
I like about 4-5 for their design. I’m interested in most of them from a competitive stand point.
I repectifully disagree. These new Pokemon may look different from Pokemon in other regions, but is that not also true for real life animals as well? Personall, I think all the designs this gen are great except for Sandcastle Mon.
no its not true cause thats they changed the style not just the designs look at raichus mouth and the old one, and how the older one had visable toes and this one just have a rounded legs with lines on them.
I am in the same boat as OmegaEmpoleon. The only one I don’t like so far in terms of design and would be the Bewear line.
There is NOTHING wrong with the new designs. Just because YOU might not like them doesn’t mean that there bad. 😛
I personally love all of them from gen 1 to this new gen. I love Pokemon in general. 😀 Even the Pokemon that I don’t really like all that much.

Why are ppl making vids already the leak aint even over yet xD
They just work fast
and money
Muney
One thing I dont like about GameXplain is that they repost a trailer within minutes of it being released, which means that Pokemon is getting less views.
they repost it twice too. one in SD then they delete then upload a HD one
I understand with the Japanese trailer since we can’t comment on the Japanese trailer but I don’t understand with the English one since we can comment on the English trailer.
Why are people making videos so early…..? There’s clearly gong to be more info from both this leak and the trailer in general. lol
View=Money.
Meh that’s true lol
Dammit, why are people such sheep.
so… if these leaks are true, then the previous 103 pokemon list is fake (?)
Or are these leaks fake(?)
There isnt a grass/fairy pokemon named morelull in the list, nor any other pokemon with that type.
That dex “leak” was proven fake with the Corocoro scans
oh..
damn. xD anyways thanks for letting me know.
Hey, so the starters and Rockruff´s evolution secondary “various” types are also proven fake?
Yeah the various evos for starters and Rockruff are now false, however this secret evolution thing that was mentioned in Corocoro might be it evolving into 4 evolutions based on the island – however that theory’s been floating about for a while so it wouldn’t give any credit to the fake dex leaker
Thankyou!
I was really excited of rockruff´s evo having part fairy or fight :c
That list was fake………
103 Pokemon leak was fake
Its been confirmed fake
. There is no sandcastle pokemon
. No bewear pokemon
.Incorrect names for pokemon like the sea cucumber
. no grass fairy
now you’re doubting the very existance of humanity
Everything is fake.
All this news and comments are frying my iPad
My phone ;—;
Same, I’m on phone and comments are disappearing and reappearing for me :s
Perfect for cooking sea cucumbers and mushrooms
…..that oddly sounds tasty
Ikr…weird mangosteens for dessert anyone?
Ohlala
So what is Pyukumuku’s name origin? I caught the obvious ‘Pyuk’=puke, but the rest still has me stumped.
Puke mucus or puke much?
I think Pikachu will remain the same look. Pichu is the same and those two are pretty iconic now – granted pichu not so much but i think the focus is on Raichu so it will only have the new design
Alright people, this is overwhelming, I’m going to take a break for a bit. Hopefully the trailer drops soon.
YAY! I’m so glad Raichu finally got some love 🙂
More Team Skull, nothing really that important though:
http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1470866849540.jpg
Oh my.
I’m proud of GameFreak for all these puns ;-;
Really liking the logo!
It reminds me of an old ps1 game, Medievil.
This pun reminds me of Undertale lol.
Omg.. thought the same! Lol
Hey me too
Greninja kills Rhyperior for fun
That broken thing does that already to plenty others
That look is surprisingly creative how the S acts like the top portion of a skull
THat’s what I thought when I first saw them in CoroCoro <3
That symbol is… amazing!
Why Leaks Why, but Yes Leaks Yes
so conflicted about how i feel about the leaks right now lol
I mean, this symbol was already shown in CoroCoro, sooo
a tiny image of it was. But people leaking the video images before its officially released is just dirty
Nice logo design.
“Get schooled by Wishywashy” “Team Skull has a bone to pick with you”
Oh Pokemon, how I love you!
At least! A team that can finally appreciate Papyrus.
I hope they made him lotsa spaghetti!
https://youtu.be/gHL341Hqc_U
Brilliant graphic design! The pun on the other hand…
THAT PUN.
http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/deathbattlefanon/images/6/6a/Sans.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20160417013108

That’s almost as evil as me…
L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N
Glad I’m not the only one who thought of that.
IT’S AN EXPLOSION! >:(
Wow… The lingo is awesome. More carefree.. funny even. punny
I make the mistake of not being on here for a few hours and come back to all this!
