That hot fireball/bell thingy around Terracat’s neck reminds me of the belt that Litten’s leaked final evolution wears.
Holy shnitnzen gruvben you are right, they look very close if not identical to each other o.o
You know, I hope that, for the first time since Gen 2, that all the starters just keep the type they started as the whole way.
Not really.
Grass3: Grass/Flying (that checks out)
Fire3: Fire/Dark likely.
Water3: Water/Fairy likely.
All I said was “I hope” what’s not really about that? If I’d been declaring they will be then sure, but I wasn’t, just saying I’d like it
Still hope the split evo starters are true. I’d be down for a Grass/Psychic Rowlet
Yea. I doubt that leak is even real. Yet, don’t lose hope!
Wait, what leak is that from?
It was on Bulbapedia Rumour Page! It’s an “interesting” rumour with pictures. It has almost no validity currently.
http://forums.bulbagarden.net/index.php?threads/rumours-fakes-leaks-discussion-thread.214874/
That moment when Brionne eats its candy and then does that cute move at 1:08 and you suddenly fall in love.
..and it’s a male.
Didn’t they say next Corocoro will reveal Type:Null’s secret? If so, I suppose that will also be covered on the Oct. 14 reveal.
Possibly, Corocoro usually leaks around the 11th every month
Oh CRAP I just thought of something!!!! So in order to do the bond forms your Pokemon need the Battle Bond ability. That means that the starters likely won’t get that kind of transformation. that means they still have a different secret. I’m still banking on it being split forms lol
I’m still hoping for version exclusive final evos. That would be a big surprise, and it would be something they share with Rockruff.
Since Charizard had two megas I’m resigned to future starters having unequal attention or gimmicks. Ash-Greninja being another that has it’s own gimmick that the other two starters didn’t get.
I honestly can say I’m super legitimately surprised by ash greninja, I never expected him to end up in any games. I hope they give a good explanation
”A special transformation that only occured once before in Kalos over a 100 years ago” I never doubted it wouldn’t be in the games
A fire dark wrestler that is weak to fighting is just plain ass stupid.
We already talked about that below, no need to repeat it. <3
Not everybody is able to keep up looking at the amount of comments haha
Like I said down there, the heel/cheater wrestler is weak to the real wrestlers/heroes. Makes a nice dynamic.
Makes a nice dynamic, yes. But still I don’t see how a heal FIGHTER that FIGHTs dirty gets dark type only for being unfair. **** dark type.
I mean, thats what the Dark type is though. It’s characteristics are playing unfair, cheating, and being ‘evil’ in the way. It’s why Japan considers it the ‘Evil’ type and why fighting is super effective against it. Heroes beat out evil.
You know… Dark type has all the cheating-like moves. You know, Pursuit, Feint Attack, Sucker Punch/Sneak Attack, Assurance…
That’s why I love dark type: the SCAMS https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1ad9f569a31108e94695fc65c9ba1be5e70700cb2dc245e428de56ed7ee6b6f1.gif
I see this Pokemon learning Sucker punch,knock off maybe but not being Dark and since when did the commentary about Pokemon really mattered? I see thi Pokemon learning flying press, bounce, thunder punch maybe, defiantly at least 80% of fighting moves. Damn monkey and a chicken get fighting and a wrestler who does it for life gets Dark? What annoys me is that Percyespeon kinda make sense and that game freak might pull off a gyarados, charizard or an alolan exeggcutor nonsense type combos.
When will the next CoroCoro leak?
Likely around the 11th or 12th.
Thanks
I really hope Ash gets Rowlet. Main man needs Dartrix
14th October is the next leaks
Reveal, not leaks
that’s what I meant
If it’s gonna be a leak it’ll be before the official one.
http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1475589219004.png
Yup.
It’s unuseful. They would not believe them even if Masuda himself revealed them as true. Same story for 6 years: They don’t like the fire starter, then the leak must be fake.
Not that it must be fake, it’s that we won’t accept it till it’s finally annouced
You mean you don’t want to accept the ugly true until you are forced to.
yeah and is that a problem? I prefer to tell myself litten3 doesn’t exist
oh No, no, please, no problem…I’m starting pretending too after reading this:
“The cat punch that this Pokémon can dish out with its strong forelegs is extremely powerful. It can bend iron bars and knock out large men with a single blow!”
I’ll only forgive Gamefreak a bit if litten3 is indeed half dark. I was originally going for Litten (I love it) but I didn’t want a tiger on steroids 🙁 Then I chose popplio because it’s final evo is actually cool, then Brionne comes along (it looks mentally challenged)
You can use Popplio until level 31, then evo to Brionne, then evo 1 more level to Popplio3.
I’d only do that if I had an eviolite. I might have to learn to love brionne because I need that popplio3 so I can kill all litten3
Well, I did “Braixen forever” run in XY… it’s not hard.
edit: but then again neither is XY…
I think the worst thing about litten3 is that friggen gray chest. WTF is that. Looks like shit
Ugh yes totally agreed! Why is he so damn disproportionate !!!
It just occured to me that Rowlet’s evolution line does seem to be based on famous british characters.
Rowlet – Though name means arrow, but it may also sound like J.K.Rowling.
Dartrix – Has a hair style similar to one of the doctors in Doctor Who. Wait! Darlek!
And finally Sherhood seems to mirror Robin Hood.
Is the name of Rowlet3 confirmed already?
no, but it seems to be better than Robinroot for some people here.
Queen Rowling
first I’ve heard anyone call it Sherhood, interesting name to call it
So many salty genwunners on Facebook. Love their bitterness
A game I have no interest in IS CHANGING !?!??? /S
AJBDKHBKJBKJSBF THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT REAL FANS LIKE I AM, EVEN THOUGH I PLAY/LIKE THE FIRST GAME WHILE THEY LIKE THE WHOLE SERIES
I WANNA BE THE VERY BEST, LIKE NO ONE EVER WAS…
TO CATCH THEM IS MY REAL TEST, TO TRAIN THEM IS MY CAUSE…
I WILL TRAVEL ACROSS THE LAND, SEARCHING FAR AND WIDE…
EACH POKEMON TO UNDERSTAND, THE POWER THAT’S INSIDE…
POKEMON! GOTTA CATCH THEM ALL…
Looks like the final evo leaks are true… As we can see the dress like veil for Brionne and the claws compared to hind legs on Torracat. The owl is something else, but I like
And I am TOTALLY going to waste many hours in that Festival, cause I want dat clothing!!
Anyone believing the Gummy Leak it seems to be unconfirmed. Here’s why:
The second evolution names are not Rotalon, Blaline and Enteeal.
Mega Evolution seems to not be locked to the post-game.
It’s the leak with the Grass/Psychic, Fire/Poison, and Water/Fighting Moon Form Starters. Basically, any Pokemon leak mentioing the NX or another Generation is always fake.
Legendaries and mythicals are excluded for Battle Spot VGC?
Why on earth does Dartrix look like it belongs in Panic! At the Disco?????
Now I’m imagining Dartrix singing ‘VIctorious’…..best image ever xD
I just died ????
still team rowlet <3 <3 <3 <3
i’m back from my walk any news
The Spain site leaked a Ice Stone
link?
Let me find it on the Serebii Twitter
https://twitter.com/SerebiiNet/status/783301634009030656/photo/1
https://twitter.com/pokejungle/status/783301202549190657
U wut
Wow what
https://twitter.com/SerebiiNet/status/783301634009030656
Ice stone for those that missed it
OMGGGGGG THIS MEANS NEW ICE TYPES!!!
Or how Alolan Vulpix evolve….
And Glaceon..?
Ice Rock
Yeah, But I think having a map feature just for the evo of one Pokemon is silly. This is a possible change. And they might have Eevee evolve to Leafeon with Leaf Stone, too.
I mean, while I hope they personally do that, they could just as easily make umbreon and espeon evolve through the use of sun and moon stones, but they won’t because its become their staple at this point
Grandfather Clause never stopped Milotic from having an alternate evo path…
Using Sun and Moon stones for them to evolve would be silly, as all new games have a clock.
Adding a place for Glaceon and Leafeon to evolve could however easily be avoided with the use of Ice and Leaf stones instead.
Yes obviously, but I doubt it’ll be just for them
Perhaps the rumoured Snowman Pokemon?
I doubt they’d changed Glaceons evolution like you said.
Yes please, I want snowman. But not necessarily Ice/Ghost although I love Froslass
I don’t think we’re getting that many new ice types, I mean, the only place with snow in alola is that mountain top.
Yup but surely there’s room for at least 1 new line. Snowman needed
I skeptical about the snowman, I mean, how can a Pokemon snowman look good?
I was wondering how Vulpice was going to evolve
I saw the spanish trailer and didn’t see that..
Demo requires 400MB/3100 blocks
Das pretty big lol
I’m still getting it
i am a little disappointed that i’ll be stuck with a Greninja
but unless Gamefreak has learnt from their past mistakes, dataminers will datamine the crap out of that demo
Well you don’t HAVE to take it you know lol I’m sure if you want you can just leave it on the demo.
You speak the truth.
Or you just wait another month for the full game
Or not. I hope everything leaks (except things involving the storyline)
HISSSSSS EARTHEN NEED ALL INFO
THEN EMBRACE THE UNLIMITED POWER OF GRENINJA WITH SPIKY HAIR AND OVERGROWN SHURIKEN
Well actually that’s not bad surprisingly said by me
i mean its bad and it hurts but Battle Bond means no Protean which was half the reason that thing was sent to ubers
but as nice as this sounds this will probably not be the case since people would most likely use normal Greninja rather then ones with Battle bond so it changes nothing
Probably exchanged Protean for an increased stat total…
Err yea its probably just to please fans. I mean Greninja is massive in Japan, so they obviously anticipated to that
Well yeah that goes without saying hahaha
How do you know? 😮
Because its on Serebii twitter
The Poke Pelago reminds me a little of Pokemon Conquest when you’d instruct your armies to either train, bond with more pokemon, dig for gold etc. This is gonna be really useful.
I’m actually really glad they made this feature. It makes you feel like your boxed Pokemon are actually living their lives rather than being stuck in a computer all day everyday lol
i mean game wise they’re code but that is true
i usually see it as a blissful purgatory
Have they ever been officially declared as data when in the PC? I feel like it’s one of those things people just assumed as it’s…well a computer lol
Definitely, and it’s finny considering Prof Oak’s cousin will be in Alola, I wonder if he’ll be in charge of the Poke Pelago like Prof Oak is in chatge of the place Ash visits in Pallet Town to see his Pokemon.
He’s a very British owl.
I think his evolution chain is Harry Potter => Doctor Who => Robin Hood
As one person says in a comment here
http://kotaku.com/heres-what-the-evolutions-of-pokemon-sun-and-moons-star-1787389865
JK Rowlet => Doctor Hoo => Owliver
holy ballz new info on the 14th that’s next friday/ten days/two days after my birthday
And since Coro Coro may leak before that, it might have info on Type: Null!
not might
WILL it was confirmed that Type: Null’s full power will be shown in the next issue of Corocoro
oh shit my birthday is day after demo
the sad thing is i got absolutely nothing to look forward for
no new games, no new nuthing,
the only thing to look forward is stuffing my unquenchable maw with raw fish
You can buy yourself overwatch loot crates…
i don’t even have it yet, i’ve been focusing on Warcraft: legion i had no time to buy it and torture myself with it
so far 4 level 110s (the level cap) but so many to go, today was gonna be either a Shaman or a Monk Day
4! You’re crazy.
I’m guessing you don’t raid and stuff?
When I still played wow I mostly collected weapons and armors of different design.
Like I made one of my pandas look like Mario with a shovel…
dude i am a RPer and collector and a Altoholic my goal was get everyone to cap and their profession cap
And i love being a pandaren
Xenku Brewbelly
