Once upon a time in a land far, far away one Pokémon news site took a brave step into the world of posting Pokémon rumours. A world where few other Pokémon sites braved to go. The little Pokémon site continued its adventure into the world of rumour posting and started to become known for posting them, something its community loved.
Today the Pokémon site, known as PokéJungle.net, has grown up and continues its adventure into the world of Pokémon rumours, gaining many new followers and fans who love what the site does and can’t wait for the next batch of fresh juicy rumours they post.
Seriously though, we know you guys love it when we post rumours and it’s for that reason we post them. We have and always will post rumours for our readers to discuss and comment. Any rumours we post are not intended to be taken as true or real (though it’s not impossible). We want our readers to relax, talk about it, speculate the truth of it etc… At the same time we ask our readers not to claim the rumours we post as true. We’re not trying to be a centre of misinformation, nor are we trying to farm our users for their precious, precious time. We take it seriously when we misreport on something because we only want the best for you guys!
As with X & Y it’s not unlikely that real leaked information could come from other sources outside of Japan (as the Chinese Sun & Moon leak seemingly confirms) and we’re becoming ever vigilant about what we do and don’t post.
We’ve had a few comments lately about the “rumours” we post and we just wanted to clarify to you guys that they are simply just that. Rumours. In future we’ll be sure to add our own personal touch and analysis of rumours we post and even give out a “truthness” rating.
So please, join the little Pokémon site that was and let’s make this a happily ever after. To infinity and beyond, or something…
<3 everyone at PokéJungle (especially moving)
I’m glad you aren’t stopping posting rumors. Honestly that’s one of the reasons I chose pokejungle over other Pokemon sites.
We’re never going to stop PokéJungling. 🙂
I think it’s great what you’re doing. I don’t mind the rumours because I know its just that, rumours and when they do come true that just makes you guys look better.
I actually prefer you guys to Serebii so keep at it!
I don’t think it’s fair to compare the two. Both sites have different goals, and both fulfill them perfectly. Serebii is dedicated to being the go-to database for all things Pokemon, but Pokejungle is here for the community and rumors that mainstream sites won’t cover simply because their words are often seen as “fact” in the fanbase’s eyes.
I wouldn’t agree with that, but I’d agree that I prefer the format here because I find it easier to read and find key information. Serebii is good as a fact book, but I find their news stuff hard to navigate.
I love when you guys post rumors since they always spark interesting conversations and speculation that are a joy to read and be apart of. Never Change Pokejungle 😀
Guys I found a rumor here it is: Pokemon sun and moon will be good games. Alright now make me an article.
Right on it. :p
Yeah I don’t see it can I get a link?
Holy damn! I haven’t seen you on PJN in forever! Are you still on the staff?
Ozy wrote an article not too long ago
Yep, I’m still here!
For the past three years I was doing my mandatory National Service in the Singapore Armed Forces’ Army (All males born in Singapore have to serve), so it was a bit difficult to really post on the site regularly. haha I was doing stuff behind the scenes, and posting on all our social media throughout that time, but now my service is done and you’ll see me much more often on here!
((In all honesty I’m surprised and happy someone remembers me ;-;))
With your personality who could forget you? ^-^
Kind of sad that you had to make a post about this……Most people here don’t do many of the things you say you don’t want us to do. It’s the people that come from the outside that see the posts and suddenly take everything at face value. I for one enjoy reading about rumors and whether they end up being fake or true it’s always a fun time. It’s pretty sad that other people like to make big deals out of nothing……Anyway you guys keep doing what you’re doing and everyone here will love you for it!!
I think one of the reasons rumors spark is because of your site. But because of my paranoid nature, I treat every rumor as fact until confirmed or unconfirmed and it really stresses me out. Like that recent “Rainbow Greninja” Rumor. I’m so paranoid about that one. It sounds sorta too good to be true but then again, seems legit.
Rainbow Greninja is nonsense.
It’s a shame that some people are that naive and have nothing better to do than try to discredit Pokejungle.
Rumours are rumours, not 100% confirmed. I mean the only way that it’s proven true is in November, when the games come out (or indeed if the “leaks” have expiration dates as in on the 21st for the latest batch)
I’ve never understood people who get worked up over leaks and rumours, because it might not even be true, hardly anything to lose sleep over.
I love Pokejungle for the fact that rumours and leaks are discussed here. It’s always fun to read other people’s opinions & discuss what could potentially happen. I check Serebii for the hard facts first (then will check other sites for deffo confirmation) but I check this site for the fun that can happen on the comment section.
Keep on keepin’ on!
Rumors are my favorite part of hype season though! Fake leaks are the best! Sad you had to post about this
Idk why people believe 100% if it says rumor its never like u had a tag saying “THIS IS RUMOR BUT I KNOW ITS 100% FACTS GG GN”
Rumors occasionally turn out to be true, so why not have some fun and post them? If people have a problem they can either:
1) Not click on the article
2) Skip straight to the comments and talk about something else
3) Not go here…if rumors really bother you, maybe you should go elsewhere
Rumor has it Ultron likes Rumors
Pssh…where did you hear such a rumor? ;^)
I love rumors! You guys always tag the rumor articles with “fake” or “speculation” so there’s no way someone with a high enough IQ could not understand that it’s just rumors, nothing confirmed
Pokejungle don’t let that has been of a poke tuber get to you, he hates like everything and everyone and has clickbait titles most of the time so he really cant say anything, I don’t think this article was necessary, but thanks for looking out for the communities best interests, we’ve got your back though! He needs to grow up.
This article has been in the making for a while! We had one in 2013 and one in 2010, so we were overdue a new one! 🙂
fair enough man, I guess its good for the younger fans who may not always know
so when gen 8 happens will we see another one?
2019… Gen 8
ill make sure to be here.
I don’t know, I wouldn’t say overdue really, every 3 years is still in the time frame 🙂
I think overdue in terms of people getting angsty about rumour posting, maybe. 3 years is a long time though!
Yeah thanks Pokejungle for posting rumors about the new games! I like to analyze and talk about potential information as it’s fun to talk with other people about it.
Verlisify again. Isnt it? He hates everyone because he has no friends. Every month he has something else to hate. Ttar tube. Gain. Birdkeeptoby. That scrafty guy. And maybe next month it wil be nappy. Or shady. He is not 100% in his upper chamber. Or whatever you call it. He is just nuts!!
Oh I heard of that Scrafty guy
I hated him
That guy is such a hypocrite and a complete ass. Always has clickbait titles for the views
Poketubers are the worst of gaming channels on youtube
haha We actually had this article planned for a while, it has nothing to do with anything specific. People will always have opinions – some that you agree with, and some that you don’t.
I honestly can’t stand him.
and Verlisify is the first one to talk about rumours and speculating… haha don’t give him such importance.
and remember that Pokejungle is a friendly community driven by many people, not only by one person trying to feed his ego by criticizing others.
He hates on Dobbs at all he’s startin’ a war with me! Or Auraguardian! My fav. Poke tubers
It’s totally fine, we all have brains, we know they’re just rumours.
Some people choose to put faith in them, some dedicate themselves to debunking them.
All in all it’s just a bit of fun and it helps us forget just how long we have to wait until the real deal arrives.
Nintendo sent takedown notices to the creators of Pokemon Uranium so now it’s been removed. They spent NINE years making that fan game. Shame.
Aw that sucks… I looked at it and it seemed like an awesome game.
This just makes me want to find a place to download it from
Yeah.. It sucks that they had a good purpose for the game and never intended to gain money, yet Nintendo decides to crush their dreams.
Nintendo drives me crazy with how C&D happy they are
I don’t like their legal team. It makes them look like they hate their fans, which is bad PR.
DMCA, not C&D. They never C&D’d AM2R or Uranium. Theoretically the devs still can work on it. Just not distribute it (publicly).
Anyway they have to do it to protect their copyright, to show that they are enforcing it. If they don’t DMCA AM2R or Uranium now, they are just gonna lose the ability to enforce it by creating a precedent to future actual copyright violators.
I noticed that earlier today. It’s sad because a fan spent tons of time making a game that they never intended to make any money off of.
Wasn’t it a free download too?
it was free. and also had wifi enabled features
Non-profit doesn’t mean it isn’t infringing.
The only viable response is to torrent it until the seeders run dry.
Yeah, although that way isn’t for sure safe :/
No, but it would get it distributed enough that people can start distributing it via other means.
Ultimately the best route to go is the dark net, but sadly not everyone goes on that so it would be limiting the user base.
I don’t see how they have the authority to take it down. So long as you aren’t making a profit while using their trademark (and assets), it shouldn’t be a problem.
Apparently the problem is distributing it in general, not whether or not it makes money.
Just using their trademarks/assets is an issue, even if it’s not for profit. Besides which the modern habbit of F2P/Freemium games is blurring the lines.
Not correct. Just because it’s non-profit doesn’t mean it isn’t infringing.
Technically all fan works are infringing, even the avatar I have, it’s just I’m small enough so that the makers wouldn’t care to shut me down.
Lmao, well lets be honest any copy of a trademarked thing not made by its original trademarkers is bound to get taken down, if not sued first
Yeah, but it’s just a shame that they don’t respect their fans. There was nothing wrong with this. It’s not like it was damaging their brand. If anything, it strengthens it.
Im guessing its just for precautions in case when future pokemon games come haters arent like “ugh, this game sucks, download the free fangame, its way better” which would in turn end up damaging the company because people will just download free fangames instead of actually buying the real thing
Or they have a Pokemon idea that GF wants for the future.
They have to do it to protect their copyright, to show that they are enforcing it. If they don’t DMCA AM2R or Uranium now, they are just gonna lose the ability to enforce it by creating a precedent to future actual copyright violators.
Though I will say, this is why it’s better to make games that are super super similar but different enough that they couldn’t be called pokemon and the legal guys can’t barge in.
I agree, but I guess they just felt really passionate about pokemon to instead make it a ripoff rather than a fans dedication
Theres still download links around just not officially from them
a big reason why Pokemon Uranium got canned was because it was a Rom Hack which was getting alot of attention from news sources *Like IGN* who makes a profit based off the news they talk about
Yeah, ROM hacks are much more likely to get canned since they’re using the actual game’s game engine instead of a custom one.
If it’s a custom engine then they can only sue for trademarks and assets, but using their actual engine is a big deal.
I dont think Uranium was using Pokemon game Engine
If it was a ROM hack then yes it was.
Pokemon ROM hacks are just taking the pokemon game engine for whichever game it’s a hack of and replacing the art/text/script assets.
I know calling something that early ‘an engine’ might seem overkill, but that’s correct terminology.
hm RPG Maker it was made with so bascially it just took all the sprites and stuff
It’s not a ROM hack then.
A ROM hack is only a ROM hack if it takes the code of the original game and alters it. If it’s an RPG maker game with assets from the original games then it’s not a ROM hack, it’s just an RPG maker game with Pokemon assets.
thanks for clearing that up.
To clear it up further:
ROM stands for Read Only Memory.
It refers to the type of memory in which the program code for games are stored on in the game cartridge.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROM_cartridge
An emulator is a program that pretends to be a certain games console by faking the inputs, outputs and behaviour of the console. In order to play games it gets given virtual copies of the contents of real game cartridges, stored in files called ROM files. Opening up a ROM file and modifying the code inside to make the game behave differently is known as ROM hacking, and a game produced by this method is a ROM hack.
Ah, I see. I was wondering how they got the sprites for everything and stuff. It was still well done :/
I’m lucky I got it while it was available then. It’s a weird game from what I’ve played, but it seems cool so far. One thing I’ve learned is that Nintendo is unforgiving when it comes to fan projects. It’s a bit unfair of them to be such jerks about that kind of stuff when all the other gaming companies are s chill.
Yeah I don’t understand their aggressiveness.
But now it is forever floating around on the internet.
Yea I just downloaded it lol
Eyy! Its my boy guzma!
it’s your boy
Lol.. who spends That long on something without thinking about something as simple as copyright laws? I assume they knew it would be forever online in one way or another.. legal or not
It’s a DMCA to uploader sites, not a C&D.
And besides, it’s out, someone has archived and shared it, fairly easy to get.
I love how eloquently this was handled. I see that these articles need to be reposted every so often, but I think most of us know what instigated this one in particular. 😉
It’s one of the things I love about Pokejungle: these matters are handled maturely, but with the authority to halt subsequent attacks against our name.
and after a youtuber comes at PJN we come back strong
Which YouTuber? I am almost Never in on the loop here.. -,-
Verlisify.
Thanks to him referring to PJN, we get more views, even if the attention is negative at first, they get to see our nice people firsthand.
Wait Verlisify was here was he called Verlisify or what was his screen name
That’s his name on youtube. Though anyone can create a disqus account (or rename their own) and impersonate him, so I wouldn’t put too much stock in that…
Oh ok at first I was thinking he was actually here
Well, I’d be surprised if he did actually show his face here after the… questionable things he said. 🙂
AWWWWWW, I LOVE YOU GUYS! POKEJUNGLE FTW!
I love this site, it’s the coziest and the most down to earth Pokemon site ever, I felt like a part of big family after my first post and now it still continues on. How can I explain this, words are useless. I hope this site lives on for like decades, I dream the day we’ll be married to sexy Moving and have our little baby boy and we’ll be discussing rumours of generation 10 and still posting here, a girl can dream.
This comment is only slightly disturbing…but I agree with most of it.
😀 but you didn’t even hear about the part where Dae will be very regretful about not responding to my love back in the day and trying to get me but me being a loyal wife choosing the man I should have loved from the beginning (a.k.a Moving) and also being scared about Dae’s life cause Moving can kill a man with his punch, so handling this situation professionally without him noticing.
Oooooh spicy love triangle. Govnah like
I love you.

*heart skipped a beat*
I love you too.
How are you doing lately? Are you OK? Have you been keeping well? 🙂
Yes I’m OK, things are going well in these days, I’m grateful for that 🙂 thanks for asking. How are you doing my Gerard?
Glad to hear it! Hope it continues for you! 🙂
You don’t need to thank me. I’m… OK I suppose… Your Gerard? What does that mean?!
Gerard Butler
This could be a soap opera
The sudden realisation I automatically assume everyone else on the internet (unless clearly indicated otherwise) to be male.
I guess that’s what comes of spending 4 years in a class of almost all males and almost never leaving the house 😛
I’m Male.. and Moving can still get.. IT.
IT?
http://i.imgur.com/ROqPgKz.gif
What else???
Why would they want a horrifying monster that scares and eats children?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It_(novel)
I only know that Belmad Starstorm are girls yet I assume for a lot of you male like
Shinyxatu, Earthen, you, The reece25, Ultron, Gikie, Pokemania88, and most everyone else
Um… Excuse me, how do you know it will be a boy and not a girl? Jk this is an awesome site and I agree with most of your cokment 😀
Awwww even though I’m new We love you too
And side note your a girl?
I thought you loved Dae. Ya know. Back in the Dae. (Sorry. I had to)
Oh wait. Just read your comment below.
I swear Spore is either losing power or my luck really is bad
Anybody have spore break the very next turn, nearly cost me a match
Gen 6 sleep (except Rest) is random 1-3 turns of no actions. 🙁
Yeah, it has broken a lot with me.
Do you think there will be an Alola Tauros? The coloring looks different in the drawing than it does in the other versions. Or is it just different shading in the drawing?
Not chance cosmonaut
I’ve thought about that before, but I think it’s just shading because we’ve seen it in-game and it looks normal.
http://i.ytimg.com/vi/q3tsHlxXejQ/maxresdefault.jpg
Nope.
Watch this video and count the tauros.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iaav6J6XzFs
I am pretty certain that the colouring is done that way in the drawing to emphasise the intense sunlight.
yea look at Mudsdale
when I said this like a week ago like everyone attacked me for it :C
Ouch, sorry!
At least I don’t think I did..
no malco you have always been a delight
There is not. We’ve already saw a Normal Tauros in the trailers.
I have linked to a trailer in an earlier comment with at least 4 tauros shown plain as day 😛
We’re on the way to the airport and I’ll be back home tonight. I came up with some cool design and typing ideas that I’ll share, just for fun. And of course, embracing rumors is a part of that fun.
Cool! Can’t wait to here them
I’ll just leave this here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKLrTGl7D7c
And mention that I have experience programming Arduboys 😛
Well I’m glad you clarified. For one reason or another, I thought you guys only posted rumors that are most likely accurate ie. The Starters Final Evolution’s. I prefer sticking to things like this personally, but if others enjoy the out-there rumors included, who am I to judge. At least I will know to take it all with a larger grain of salt next time.
Rumor: sun and moon will featuring no hms expect cut.
😉
Cut!? Nooooooooooooooooooo!!! ?
Only Ash Greninja can make that HM cool
imagine Normal Z Move is Cut
…. ?.
I would also like to say… Ash’s Hawlucha taking direct hits to become red hot “stronger” with his frail defenses in this league made 0 sense at all. . . -,-
Yeh, I have no idea what that was about.
That tactic was a bit too immature for gen 6 if u ask me
Anime logic
Was convinced it was using bide, but nothing suggested it was. And it can’t even learn it can’t it?? Confusing to say the least.
It suddenly thought it was a Torterra and Ash agreed. . . -,-
I could’ve sworn it was an ability or Bulk Up, I guess it was just a technique he taught Hawlucha..?
