We kinda already have too many turtle Pokemon already. I can think of 9 off the top of my head… I mean there’s a lot of other creative real life inspirations they could choose from.
Over 10 turtles and still not one dolphin
This one is a tortoise, not a turtle
WHATEVER
It’s a snapping turtle/soft shell turtle
I’d say it’s a mix because this one is def not going in the water like snapping turtles do
It goes in the lava
Not the same. If it were actually a snapping turtle it wouldn’t have that mouth
It’s a matamata
Matamata means kill kill in Portuguese
If it were actually a snapping turtle it wouldn’t be in fucking lava at all your moron. This is a fictional creature.
Do you have a problem? No need to insult anyone here. I meant based on a snapping turtle but I guess you’re not smart enough to understand that.
Actually in the US they call all testudines turtles, contrary to Europe where we reserve “turtle” to aquatic forms. However this is based on a freshwater species so it’s technically a turtle haha
Get your shit together, US
Yeah same fucking thing.
There are loads of turtle species though, so tbf there’s plenty of inspiration to go with in that regard. This particular sort of turtle hasn’t been done before.
Yeah thanks I’m aware that animals have multiple species. But considering we only have 700 Pokemon in all, how many of them really need to be based on another type of turtle when we STILL HAVE NO DOLPHIN.
That’s completely fair, but better a new type of turtle than a cat or something. Wouldn’t worry about the dolphin though, the leaks seem solidly behind i t;) .
its up on the official website : http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-gb/pokemon/turtonator/
i only expected one pokemon i mean it’s not as if the stream was actually just for revealing pokemon
They rustle us with Ash and give us one silly turtle at Gamescon. Very, very disappointed in GF and Pokemon Company. Yokai should buy them out and make them disappear.
Lol the anger in that last comment tho
Revealing a Fire/Dragon type the day Zard X beat Ash-Greninja…salt in the wounds 🙁
I’m actually more salty about a new Fire/Dragon pokémon looking this bad.
Well, I didn’t expect this… It’s kinda weird looking but I like it.
#TeamKappa
#Lotadisforgotten
Literal Kappa?
Well, it looks a lot like one.
Zelda doesn’t have a german voice…
Oh my god I just imagined a German Zelda and it wasn’t the most majestic thing ever
holy smokes, its has a grenade type move. Dame, if it werent for its weird tail and mouth thing this would be defo in my party, still a great looking poke, love the shield
Isn’t that Explosion, though?
he traps them and when hit with a physical move it explodes, im guessing the opponent explodes not turtonator
Shell trap
I thought they were talking about the last move.
I think it works like future sight (or whatever) but is triggered by a physical attack, hence the explosion
Nvm I was confusing it with the small burst before the dragon pulse
I love the idea of it being based on a soft shelled turtle, but that swims in lava, the shell and everything are perfect for that 🙂
i love fire types so great reveal for me 🙂
Says the person with a grass type as their profile picture :p
thats the default for the site
that is the basic picture i need to change it still lol
Oh I didn’t know that :p
The music from this trailer gives me chills every single time.
will we receive more information day 21st?
Get a grip, people! Did the Pokemon Company say anything at all about giving us a lot of new information today? They promised a live stream, and we were given a live stream! So what if they only showed us one new Pokemon?! We are now only three months away from the release date, so all this rage over ‘not enough news’ is pure cringe! Rant over.
they promise live gameplay too. which we got.
… It’s just people’s opinions.
. -,-
Turtonator is based off the Matamata turtle
True
Yay I was correct, the french name clearly indicates it! 😀
C’est quoi en français?
Boumata, et l’attaque s’appelle Carapiège. C’est toujours utile de check Pokebip à chaque sortie d’infos haha.
Merci! J’ai jamais appris les noms des pokémon en français, je vais essayer au moins de les reconnaître pour cette nouvelle génération
Ça vaut le coup de jeter un oeil sur les noms des gens précédentes, y’en a un paquet qui sont bien marrants
Je ferai ça ce soir! J’suis à Paris et avec Pokémon GO j’suis un peu obligé de les apprendre les noms. Je me promenais au jardin du luxembourg et un mec est venu me demander si j’avais vu un salamèche. Au début je savais pas de qui il parlait x) J’ai grandi en regardant l’animé en portugais (j’suis brésilien) et les noms sont les mêmes qu’en anglais. J’apprend l’italien là pour pouvoir partir en erasmus l’année prochaine du coup je vais jouer à SM en italien. Ça sera chaud d’apprendre les noms en français x). T’es de quelle ville?
Ah effectivement avec Go c’est difficile sans . J’imagine même pas la tête du mec quand tu connaissais pas salamèche hahaha :’) . J’irais bien jouer à Go au Luco avec mes potes, mais j’ai pas de forfait internet, et le jeu crash constamment sur mon ipod.
Je suis de Paris (et de Londres, lol)! (mais du coup toi t’es allé à la Japan Expo?) Moi j’étudie en Angleterre, du coup je vais acheter le jeu là bas mais quand même jouer en français, par tradition on va dire. Ça devrait être un challenge sympa de jouer en Italien 🙂 !
T’as de la chance d’être parisien et de pouvoir étudier à Londres. Je sais pas du tout ce que je vais faire à la fin de mes études. J’suis en licence 2 à Paris 1 (gestion) et après la fac je compte rester en Europe mais Paris c’est quand même un peu trop cher donc je vais devoir aller chercher ailleurs. J’ai aussi la citoyenneté italienne (une des raisons pour lesquelles je veux apprendre l’italien) donc je m’installerai peut être en Italie si tout se passe bien l’année prochaine mdr. T’étudies quoi? Et si je me permet de te demander, est-ce que la sortie du Royaume-Uni va t’affecter directement?
Ah mais j’étudie pas à Londres, j’y suis juste né et j’y vais souvent haha, j’étudie à Oxford 🙂 . (je suis un binational franco-anglais) Je rentre en 3e année d’un undergraduate degree en biologie (licence 3 quoi), en espérant faire un master à londres ou paris ensuite et de revenir pour un doctorat. C’est vrai que Paris c’est cher, enfin l’Angleterre c’es pire lol. En tant que citoyen anglais le Brexit va peu m’affecter au niveau études (mais du coup ça m’affecte beaucoup au niveau personnel). Je veux pas rentrer dans de la politique ici, mais ça va avoir un certain effet sur ma vie et celle de beaucoup de mes amis et de ma famille, ça va clairement avoir un effet sur ma carrière choisie (chercheur), et ça m’affecte très fortement au niveau émotionnel. Après on est pas encore sorti en pratique :p , bien qu’il y ait très peu de de doutes que ça arrive.
Bonne chance pour L’Italie!!
Iconic life and future career. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/a6fde891a3d18784785c9f82d3de62cae26d68bd261604e43f5be03a03916c59.gif
Merci et a toi aussi pour tes études! La biologie c’est pas super facile.
I did NOT know that these turtles exist. Going to have nightmares
They’re so ugly
I think you mean adorable :p … Jk, the biology nut bias is strong in me
#NotUsingit
so if this falls on its back, will the spikes be stuck in the ground and it will just be stuck there?
Yes?
there we go explosive mind field area
It probably explodes or something
I’m sure it could create an explosion to like shoot itself back upright
Well if you turn over a turtle it does have a bit of difficulty in general…
explosive mine field then
Either that. Or falling on its back would create an explosion so it bounced back up
Yes Nintendo, we know what a let’s play is.
So yeah. This is Turtonator (rf)
looks like a rock
It’s actually just a leaf
Turtonator disguises itself as a rock.
Damn, a bunch of complainers we’ve got here. They didn’t have to show us anything.
They could of showed a clip of this just in Germany

Best thing I’ve read all day: ”Verlisfy is the cancer of Pokémon”
the thing is, as much i do hate the guy, he does say some good points sometimes. even when it comes to other youtubers click baiting and stuff
He knows fuck all.
he’s the king of click baiting…
nah TTar is
at least TT doesn’t hate everyone and everything and doesn’t personally attack others…
you acting like i said I support Verlisfy in every way possible
no, I’m not?
Verlisfy is a hypocrite we know, but TTar is really annoying with clickbait and stuff, he even said the dex leak was 100% facts to all his viewers without soild evidence, most pokemon youtubers these days annoy me so much
Bruv pretty sure I saw a vid of Verlis (maybe he deleted it) where he said that Mimikyu is a Pikachu wearing a cloth.
you’re not wrong, they’re both annoying, TT is just the lesser of the two, a lot of pokemon you tubers these days are crazy and neither of these two really have any credibility at this point
TTar is a moronic little virgin who steals other people’s stuff and pretends he made it
I dont get it, who is he and why the hate?
Watch a couple of his vids and come back. You’ll soon see why he’s hated so much
Made it 25 secs into “Pokemon S/M Leaks you Wont Believe” vid and I think I already get it.
He also made a vid, where he’s explaining how its 100% sure that we’ll have Primal Lugia and Primal Ho-Oh. The guy is a complete bellend
So he basically makes clickbait vids where he talks about nothing?
Yes
From what I’ve seen, a pretty bad personality
I’m glad we got another Fire-type. They’re doing pretty well with type distribution this time around.
Er….still no dark or ice types…that arent dumb forms, which dont count.
Why don’t they count? They are pokemon of Alola. But there will def be more. We never get a lot of ice types because they are mostly useless
Because they’re glorified recolors with different typings. If it’s not a completely new Pokemon, it does not count in my book
Gamefreak doesn’t care about your book
Well no shit.
that and Alola is a region that is lacking in places for ice types to live
yep
Naw there’s an icy mountaintop in Alola, so I bet there’ll be more ice types
I think we’ll get 1 or 2 Ice type lines at best
a very small ice mountain, aka there will probs not be many more, maybe like 1 or two lines
They kind of do, though. They only share general designs and names with the original versions of the Pokemon. Everything else is different.
That’s like saying Megas that gain new typings are new Pokemon. Not to me
Megas are not new Pokemon because they are linked directly to the main Pokemon and keep their core typings. Alolan forms, for the most part, are independent.
Does it matter if the analogy works? They aren’t new Pokemon therefore they do not count. To. Me.
Well megas are only in-battle so that’s not a good anology. The alola forms may not be new pokes entirely but they’re still worth counting
I mean, Ice Vulpix probably won’t be able to learn many of Fire Vulpix’s moves, so it’s like getting a whole new Pokemon gameplay-wise.
Sorry, I didn’t mean to be an ass.
If anyone cares matamata means “kill kill” in both Portuguese and Spanish.
I found Turtonator leaked pre evolution 😉 (just joke)

I’m leaving for now. I’ll probably be back when another article comes up. I love Turtonator, but I was hpoing for more, so I’ll be back later. This is just stressing me out. See ya.
There is a new article
Thanks 😉
