Pokkén Tournament, the Pokémon fighter brought to us from the same game studio as Tekken, has added a new fighter to its roster: Scizor (image above courtesy of Serebii)! This was widely expected after fans had datamined a game update which also included Darkrai (revealed several months ago) and Empoleon (yet to be officially announced).
Unfortunately, this announcement pertains to the Japanese arcade version of the game and owners of the Wii U version still haven’t gotten an update that includes Darkrai. Many fans are probably wondering if Scizor will similarly be delayed or even not show up on the console version. We can only hope.
FEATURED DISCUSSION: Yo-Kai Watch 2
My main hope for SM is that it changes the metagame. I see that they already trying with new abilities and typing combos so hopefully the new pokemon shakes the competitive scene alot
My main hope(s):
– Battle frontier
– PWT
– Kalos
– Seal capsules
– Good story
– Difficult game
– Difficulty options
– Good soundtrack
– Memorable characters
– Over 100 pokemon
– Long story line
– Post game exploration
———
I know, I’m greedy. xD
You’re not greedy. Most if this should be expected
I’m just hoping we get at least a few of these honestly, gen 6 set the bar very low IMO. TBH I’m scared for Gen 7’s post game, because if it is as bad as XY’s and ORAS’s, then this may be the future pokemon post games.
I really want difficulty options
I’m really hoping for field effects. I want to be able to battle in different fields that give different advantages and disadvantages to specific Pokemon.
are you referring to terrains and weather conditions?
Yeh, but ones automatically set as default depending on the field that you choose.
If you change it with say Rain Dance, it will rain for 5 turns, and then return to whatever the default chosen at the beginning was.
that would be nice. imagine having an option to start a battle with a set terrain that would make weather teams battles fun
Yep, it would change the dynamic so much. And they could have a number of different new terrains. And if they are selected before the battle, they will remain for the whole match. Maybe even add a Random Terrain option for even more fun.
Different fields or terrains will have a number of different effects on different Pokemon types e.t.c. It would be a cool thing to add in my opinion.
A ghost one would be awesome, maybe a terrain that inflicts some sort of curse on pokemon not from the ghost type
I do like that their shaking up the meta game, but in all honesty its not going to do much good long term. Meta games are like sand in a bottle. You can shake it around all you want, but everything settles into place eventually.
In this case, give people a few months to figure out what variation of Big-6 has an 80%+ win rate, and competitive will have its Big-6 Alphabet again.
Yeh, but the beginning of a new generation is always interesting and in my opinion the most fun time to play, as everyone is still experimenting with all the new changes.
Yeah, your right. But that’s not saying much. Long term appeal is what truly matters, and while things will be fun and chaotic at first, it’ll all go back to VGC 2015 the moment people find out if the Jin’s of the legendary birds are in the game. Heck, this is why i’m a bit cynical about why megas are out of VGC this there. Because I truly think that GF just wants to make people realize that they don’t know what the heck their talking about with balance and that people will always use what win’s over what’s fun when something of actual value is on the line.
True, but unfortunately with Pokemon everything is always released in one go, and over time the Metagame shifts to a standard, and with nothing new introduced for over a year, you can see why this happens. There’s no reason for things to change. This is probably one reason I would welcome regular updates to Pokemon games, but now we’re getting into the realm of paid DLCs which is a massive no no.
Well, not all hope is lost. Overwatch and Splatoon add/added new heroes/weapons and maps over time and both games did it for free, so I have hope for Pokémon.
And we do get some free content, like the mythical pokemon and other free events. The issue is though that those games allow for themselves to be re balanced with time, where pokemon doesn’t. If Junkrat’s tire is too op, they can nerf it and players are fine with it, but you can’t tweak the stats of pokemon given it would just throw a wrench in the meta, and it would only bandage the issue until people swap out the nerfed pokemon for something better.
True, true, especially since they’ve also got to consider in game as well: which Splatoon and Overwatch don’t have to worry about.
Although I was meaning more along the lines of introducing like, a new Pokémon a month or something that are specifically there to balance the meta or even just to throw something in and make everything adapt.
The few things they could do however is tweak movepools, add new items, add new moves. And add like 3-4 new Pokemon every now and then, specifically focusing on disrupting currents metagame tends.
Yeh changing stats, abilities and typing would be too big changes to implement, but little things are always plausible and if done right, could have significant impact on the metagame to keep it from going stale.
true….so true, why bother when everyone is just going to use the same 12 things

I am much more drawn to Type: Null now that it has this “evolution”
Is anyone else just going to play through the game and pick up whatever Pokémon they screw around with for their team? Becuase I see everyone planning it out but as of late I really hate the idea myself because it’s like so… Restrictive? Like I’ve got three planned teams for my White Monkey Runs, but that’s because it’s Pokémon I want to try out that I either haven’t used before or really want to try.
I tend to go with what I find when playing. Pretty much I only go in knowing what starter I want, and maybe one or two other pokemon if their special to me, in this case being Cubone.
Same here! Popplio and Alolan Raichu are my assured ones.
May I ask how Cubone is special to you?
Ehh…Cubone’s my favorite gen one pokemon. I’ve made a point to use one back in the day, as well in the remakes years ago. I just feel bad for the little guy given he’s all alone in the world, and taking him on the team would give him a better quality of life. Now the little guy’s gone from a mediocre ground type to a pretty powerful looking Fire/ghost to protect other little cubones, and that warms my heart.
Awww, that’s adorable. Tbh there’s nothing cooler than seeing a sentimental Pokémon special to you get something like a Evolution, Mega, Z-Move, or Form ^^
No, I’m choosing mine. I just like knowing which pokemon I’ll have. I only have chosen 3-4 so I’m leaving two slots open for random ones
I make a rough plan, but I rarely follow it exactly. If I see something I like more than something I have planned I have no qualms with ditching the latter.
Nope! I’m a total OCD planner. I need to map out my team for each version and even though I know it’ll change as more and more info comes out, I need to map out my team. It’s the ADD/OCD in me. My friend makes fun of me for it, and it’s constantly changing.
I usually plan out a team because I like to have balance. I also need to know what moves Pokemon will learn as they level up so I’m not stuck with a Pokemon that has only support moves, making battling really long and tedious.
I’m the exact opposite o-o
I hate knowing everything before hand and I don’t mind overlap, as well as not minding lengthy battles XD
For someone called Chaos, you’re very organised :p
Lol, I can’t stand playing slow. In Assassins creed I always had to rush in and kill everyone cos the stealth annoyed me.
It’s actually weird cos I’ve realised I’m very organised when it comes to stats and numbers (which is what Pokemon is at its core), but I’m usually spontaneous with everything else that I do.
I really enjoy taking my sweet time playing games (unless it’s grinding, then kill me) but when it comes to everything else I’m just sitting there like ‘gotta go fast’ :p
I’m also quite spontaneous-occasionally too much so. One time I literally switched classes on a dime, but thankfully the new class is much more suited to my aspirations. ^^:
The thing is when it comes to games and movies/tv shows especially, slow parts kill me. I’m just like ‘get on with it already’. Sometimes I don’t even pay attention to cut scenes unless they really grip me.
But having said that I sometimes I enjoy taking it slow, reading a good book, taking a nice stroll e.t.c.
I usually have a plan for my team but once I start playing its like my team forms itself and changes usually drastically
First time I like random, apart from Starter, as long as I balance my team.
After that it depends
I have it planned but if I find something really cool I’ll make changes
Hey, Isthme, I hate bringing forum questions over here, but I asked something on the forums that I kind of need the answer to before I do my battles in this round of the tournament. Thanks! 🙂
I can’t check it now, I’ll do when I get home in like 15 minutes! ^.^
OK that’s fine!
Okay so Silvadi has two CD drives (one on each cheek). Does that mean he can get a dual type?
One side he plays Screamo and the other side is Classical
I feel that it’s mostly just for aesthetics, but if it does I really want to set it to Fairy/Ground for coverage reasons.
That would be awesome…but also can you imagine the amount of database work serebii would have to do just to put it in his site pokedex? If my calculations are correct there are 171 different combinations of pokemon typings (not including swiched up typings.) That’d be a lot of work just for this pokemon lol
Just watched GameXplain’s questionnaire of Sun/Moon. Some important details are:
– EXP Share is gotten early in the game. It works similarly to X/Y and OR/AS.
– The game moves fast in the start! So, no slow beginnings like D/P/Pt.
– RIP D-Pad. The Circle Pad is the only way to move in the game as omnidirectional controls are fully supported and there is no grid. I’m quite sure the D-Pad will be a quick use for Selected Items.
Also, can I just say how much I love Type: Null and Jangmo-o’s evolutions! They look awesome! I love the first pseudo Dragon/Fighting type and the ability of Type: Null and it’s evolution to be any type. I’m guessing the trailer tomorrow will reveal it fully!
DAIKWNJZMEIGWK UAMVOFU IFOISKWIXKEK
Noooo Whyyy why the exp share
We should receive later in the game, not that early. Oh damn GF.
At least give us difficulty options please GF.
Easy should be X and Y
Normal should be like, Black and White
They said the difficulty seems rather decent or sorta easy in this game. Then again, they played only two hours. Making the game challenging and play it with the EXP Share off. That’s what I did! I only used it when I needed to train or gain levels.
For a hard mode, they could give us the Nuzlocke mode, not so bad I guess. But idk if GF would do that.
…..you can just turn it off though, when I went back to play the older games after XY/ORAS tbh I didn’t have as much fun because the grinding was way too much and pokemon got left in the dust.
Well I mean, I want the exp share from other gens not exp all. Share is still helpful but All just reduces is to being super easy
Yes! HG/SS are solid and great Pokemon games, but that’s why they’re my least favourite. Grinding was just annoying and it was hard to level up. B/W fixed this with Audino encounters because that was a seemingly large critism HG/SS received. I honestly see no issues with the New EXP Share. Just use it to train only!
The best thing for me personally is that EXP all eliminates you having one pokemon thats way over levelled compared to your others, in HGSS most people were getting EXP by switching in and out and there was always another pokemon getting way too much and being way higher than the others, and the same happened with the older EXP share. With EXP share all, all of your pokemon can be used as you wish and are around the same levels
I’m REEEEAAAALLLYYYY starting to get sick of listening to people whining about the EXP Share! If you don’t want to use the damn thing, TURN IT OFF!!!!! You can do that. I happen to LOVE the EXP Share, and I love the new function that it received in X and Y. I have always DESPISED my team being severely under leveled by the time I got to the elite 4/champion, so the EXP Share all was a god send for me. 😀
I really like it when they give it earlier I had horrific trouble with my team in B/W and I rage quit when I died at that bug psycho.
Technically we don’t know for sure that it’s the pseudo 😛
Can you put the spoiler tag on? I deliberately didn’t watch because these are things I don’t wanna know
Really? This is more of a general game mechanic than anything. I don’t think this warrants being a spoiler.
Exp share thing makes me ):
Fast start is good to hear, hopefully it doesn’t mean that it goes by too fast though
I only use the dpad for DS games anyway, so eh, no biggie.
Running thing is cool, but I could see it feeling weird.
– I’m fine with the EXP Share functioning like in the last games,even though it makes grinding your team too easy.At least it’s not a hold item like the old games,cause the EV boosting items and even the Lucky Egg are really useful for training pokemon.What GF should do though is for the EXP Share to have two options,have it boost the entire party or have a selected pokemon get the boost so people would stop complaining about overleveling their team
– Already like the fast pace from the sound of it
– Well darn….the rubber on my Circle Pad is badly worn off.I was really hoping that I can play with the D Pad….
– I will have my EXP.Share turned off.
– I like using the D-Pad quite a lot, not too happy not having that option, I guess they have good reason.
I’m really annoyed sneaking and the dexnav aren’t back, they’re exactly the kind of feature GF tend to axe after only featuring them in one remake, out of what seems to be only laziness, despite the feature being useful and well-loved.
YES! The EXP Share is early in the game! Earlier i level earlier I can use my pre-Oh yeah Pokemon Bank doesn’t work until january. Fiddlesticks! I wanted to bring in my shiny Azumaril, shiny Glaceon, and my regular Greninja!
Is Volcarona technically a pseudo legendary?
No cause its stats don’t equal 600 and it doesn’t evolve 3 times :/ Still amazing though
TIL what constitutes a Pokémon as a pseudo legendary
Yeah it’s kind of a fan constructed idea based on patterns. Also interesting is that Slaking is more powerful than most pseudos with a BST of 670 but its ability nerfs it. It still technically isn’t a pseudo though because its stats are more than 600.
Speaking of what constitutes a pseudo legend, there is another category called “semi-pseudo legend”. This category includes pokemon that are often mistaken for pseudo legendaries, because they are very close to being one. These include:
– Kingdra
– Slaking
– Agron
– Flygon
– And yes, Volcarona
You forget Haxorus, no?
Haxorus isn’t pseudo? Wow
Nope! Only:
-Dragonite
-Tyranitar
-Salamence
-Metagross (Gen 3 had two pseudos!)
-Garchomp
-Hydreigon
-Goodra
How could he…
I feel like people always think he is one, so I think he should be up there with the mistakens.
Yeah there’s a few more.
Do you think that we will can get one more pseudo-legendary?
Pseudo-legend was always a term fans invented to group a family of Pokemon with the following:
– 600 Base Stat
– 3 evolutionary chain
And aside from Goodra, all previous pseudo-legends had at least one type immunity.
Is Hydreigon a pseudo-legenday?
Yes, I messed up: Hydreigon, not Haxorus.
Oh sorry, nvm.
Sorry, forgot the epic Hydreigon existed. Shame on me.
Haxorus is not a pseudo.
I know, I fixed it.
Sorry! xD
No problem! ;D
nvm
It’s not one. Yet, I almost thought it was!
I don’t think so. It’s not three stages, and while strong, it’s not as strong as pseudos.
no
Jangmo-o’s evolutionary family LOOKS EPIC: the warlike headdress, the arms, the scales, the typing, THE COLORS! Finally a Dragon-type Pokemon that is unique (not saying other Dragon Pokemon are not, simply stating HOW unique it is).
my battle mojo is dying….
I hope Jangmo-o isn’t the pseudo-legend… too many Dragon-type pseudos we need something different. Only the following types have gotten pseudos:
– Dragon
– Flying
– Dark
– Rock
– Steel
– Psychic
– Ground
That’s just 7 types out of 18…
well they’re predominantly dragon
7 out of 18. But I know what you mean, it’s a 7 : 1.1
11
I can’t count today…. LOL
Definitely need something cooler with the pseudo legendaries. I don’t think Jararango is the pseudo this gen though. I think it’s like Haxorus, a three stage, stro png Pokemon but not the Pseudo legendary
What would you say your favorite new Pokémon is? I like Lurantis and Mimikyu… and Popplio3.. shoot
Salandit, Bewear and Dartrix
Mudsdale
Raw physical power and endurance
Lycanrock (Midday).
It’s crept up to tied #4 in my all time favourites list.
Popplio, Komala, Bounsweet, Minior and Mimikyu
Jangmo-o, Litten, Lycanroc and Oricorio (Baile Style)
Rowlet or Type: Null.
Lurantis, Rowlet3, Popplio3, and Jangmo-o line.
Vikavolt. I love its angry face, design, and typing.
I don’t get it, what is the “shoot” for?
Because I can’t find a favorite there are three 😛
Oh, I thought it had something to do with Popplio3. xD
Litten,Salandit,Jangmo-o,Drampa
Jararanga for me. If including alolan form.. Alolan Exeggutor
Alola Ninetales is my favorite Alolan form
It is quite fabolous. And can be quite the dragon killer.
Brionne and Palossand.
Why isn’t there a legendary Pokémon that’s poison type? Besides Arceus
Because history says, that GF hates poison type, end of story. It’s a fact, but also an injustice.
Alolan Grimer not legendary enough for you?
On a more serious note, we do need one. I want a Poison/Ice Type
What would it be based on? The only thing I can think of at the moment is the Greenland Shark.
Poison-type is underrated. Remember the hype surrounding Goomy possibly being Dragon/Poison? And Zygarde being the first Dragon/Poison type Pokemon and legend? Man, X/Y fell flat in terms of unqiue typings. Seems Sun/Moon are making up for that.
But X/Y gave us the legendary Ghost/Steel typing.
And Rock/Ice, Rock/Dragon, Dragon/Poison
I thought everyone thought Zygarde would be bug/dragon?
Zygarde should have been Bug/Ground.
Right? :/ But I guess ground makes sense given its role w/ the environment
no it’s a freaking snake how could anybody get bug
what is with you yahoos wanting all ground/Dragons bugs
It’s a snake? Looks like a giant Worm to me.
http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/thumb/3/3a/718Zygarde.png/250px-718Zygarde.png
it’s clearly a snake,
Definitely a Flat Worm from this angle.
i’m just going to continue to resent you
That too. The two biggest ones were: Dragon/Bug and Dragon/Poison.
XY fell flat in terms of Poison typings.
FTFY
XY fell flat on almost everything
FTFY
Gen 6 fell flat on almost everything
FTFY
Don’t screw this one up game freak
FTFY
I’m so scared for Gen 7.
FTFY
X/Y fell flat on almost everything TBH IMO.
Drapion is the best Poison type… and that’s because it’s also Dark type.
mehhhh it’s good but not a major threat
that’s why we need my Poison legend
Toxigeddon
Poison/ground
The Pollution PKM
Ability: Smog Zone: Changes weather to Smog, Pokemon have a 30% to be Badly Poisoned
immagine a massive mound of purplish black sludge with thick arms, 3 large glowing green eyes, large smokestack like pipes jutting out its back spewing out smog, a dripping vile maw, and sludgey flippers
“A Pokemon born by the carelessness of human pollution, Toxigeddon’s vile smoke can cause entire forests and jungles to wither and die”
it’s counterpart is my Lifegiver pokemon Gaiasis
Gaiasis
Debating Grass/Flying or Grass/psychic
The Purity PKM
a large Plant bird with a massive wingspan, each feather is an individual colored petal and it’s face is similar to a Bird of Paradise plant
Smog Zone is OP
no shit, its a towing monstrosity of pure pollution constantly spewing out top grade bio-hazardous fumes
it must be feared and this ability reflects that
Skuntank looks like it has two faces
https://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/platinum/normal/skuntank.png
I want a Fairy Pokemon as a pseudo, something divine and feminine almost like an Ophanim (one of the highest positions of an angel), and yet just looks epic.
“This Pokemon is thought to only come when great trouble arises, bringing with it light and all that is good. Sightings of this Pokemon, known as a guardian in some parts are rare, but those who do see it are considered tk be forever annointed. It is said that to win the heart of this Pokemon means eternal happiness and luck.”
We should get a Bug, Poison, or Ice pseudo.
I want a bug pseudo. Something to be the king to Volcarona’s queen.
Volcorona must be the lonely jester then… xD
cutiefly!
I really hope it has another evo and turns out awesome
This gen has so many great fairy types
Tape Koko
Cutiefly
Popplio3(I mean come on it’s totally fairy)
Alolan Ninetales
And perfect baby Mimikyu
Don’t forget Morelull, I really hope Cutiefly has a 3rd evolution and that Morelull has at least one really nice one, I cant wait to see the other Deities
I really hope they save them for the main game though. I’m jumping ship when Tapus are revealed or the demo is data mined. Whichever comes first
This gen has too many meh fairy types.
FTFY
all of them. all of them must die a slow and agonizing death
That sounds more like a Mythical/Legendary Pokemon. Pseudo legends are normal Pokemon that anyone can have, they are just slightly stronger than most other Pokemon.
Personally I want a Poison/Ice type Pseudo Legendary. With the ability Snow Warning and an update to Hail making it give Ice Types a 50% boost to defence.
If Ash can see legendary Pokemon and witness the birth of legendary Pokemon themselves, so can anyone.
how would that type combo ever come to fruition with such an ability, how would any of that work?
What the hell does the type combo have anything to do with the ability.
How does an Ice/Grass yeti summon Hail? How does a Rock/Ice dinosaur summon Hail? How does Godzilla summon a Sandstorm? Please explain this shit to me.
i mean Abomasnow is literally a snow monster so snowstorms are to follow
Aurorus’s main ability is Refrigerate, so HA aren’t too on the nose but don’t forget their crystals can freeze stuff
Face it, it doesn’t have to make sense. The only thing weather summoning abilities need is for the Pokemon to be of the same type as the weather (bar Groudon of course)
I want an Ice/Poison type cos it’s a unique type combination and it’s not a Dragon. Granted it will have 5 weaknesses, but I want a buffed Hail to help it out, in the same vain as Tyranitar.
i hear ya, but i personally just can’t see ice/poison flowing organically they’re just very different types
It could be based on a Greenland Shark, their flesh is poisonous and they live in Arctic waters.
Or like a Valkyrie Pokémon! Dang it GF make this happen
I want a Fairy/Dragon hybrid. It could be a Pixie + Dragon mixture, with two septette evolution lines, connecting at the final one. Fairy line could have a baby pixie, followed by a medium pixie with the dragon-type’s features scattered all around, and vice versa.
My personal hope is Fairy/Dark or Fairy/Dragon
That moment Sun/Moon already has more type variety than X/Y’s entire ‘dex. Although X/Y was a fun adventure, I guess the transition to 3D halted the developments that could be made.
If Tomorrow is bad…… https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9e2c887b879af6c094c90291bd7da4ed70c54727dde9603f9dcc09034806a460.png
I know what comic this is from and I roust realized Brionne is literally me
Edited for minor text fixes
Oh yeah, I forgot that we have news tomorrow. 😀
wait we have news tomorrow?
Guzma: Funny how we were both outcasts of the system: failures who never completed the Island Challenge. Cowards.
Kukui: Yet our paths differed thereafter. Guzma, can you not see?! Are you so blinded that you turn an eye to the suffering of Pokemon?! OPEN YOUR EYES!
Guzma: This system, Kukui, is corrupt. This world is… broken, just fragments of what it once was.
Kukui:And you think what you’ve done will solve this?! Guzma, you-
Guzma: You don’t understand the humiliation! You’re the diamond in the rough! You never went through what I did! You don’t know! Hmph! I see you too have been corrupted by this system!
Kukui: Guzma…
Guzma: Enough of this! From this day on, I will no longer feel pain. No longer be ashamed! Solgaleo! Lunala! Open the gates of heaven and lead me to happiness. Kukui, I’m selfish, I’m bitter, I know. But let me have one, just ONE chance at MY happiness. *Jumps into the dimensional portal created by Solgaleo and Lunala*
That’d be great, but it’s probably way less dramatic than that. IDK though, the story is shaping up pretty well.
I think Guzma is right.
Kukui is just a part of a broken system. Shame on him.
He can be part of the broken systèm on my characters face
Not really his fault though
the 50 Q&A said that Team Skull is gonna be hilarious to deal with
i mean Evil organization grunts are stupid on their own way but these punks are actually trying to be low life punks and i find that very amusing
http://2.media.dorkly.cvcdn.com/76/98/718ba3009eb52f98009f6eb3b9c81747.jpg
What q&a?
I believe they are refering to the Q&A Gamexplain uploaded earlier today. They got to play the first 2 hours of Pokémon Sun. I recommend you watch it if you haven’t.
We’re goona have a new start Morty! We -urp- were goona pick up your little friend Lillie and you two are going to repopulate the planet it’s goona be like -urp- like Adam and Eve
OH JEEZ RICk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wnyAicEkz0
GREAT video.
It’s interesting how Ash mentions re-battling trainers. Maybe he’s hallucinating??
Right, down the the most important question…
Aether Foundation or Team Skull?
AF for me *darts eyes at Lusamine*
Team Skull just for the beanie.
But sweaters
Necklace, as well.
Sweaters though so
Sweaters are important… Mix and match? 😉
AF. Team Skull look like they’re homeless
Team Skull, because I hate science.
I found these. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOIK8mFqdHU

PRECIOUS POPPLIO
so cute
Popplio is adorable. I hope the rest of it’s evolution line doesn’t forsake it bubble acrobatic skills it rocks! 😀
It’s final evolution is perfect
I hope so… But those spikes on its sides don’t look very bubble friendly! haha. 😛
I’m glad Poppoilio’s evolution line is going for a more elegant way not like innocent old Piplup which just uglified. Poppolio = Piplup done right!
Piplup was done right the first time. . .
Not really Prinplup was ugly and Empoleon had a weird typing.
To each their own I guess.
I guess so.
Well, elegance is nice, however I’m not sure why GF would have popplio go from acrobatics to dancing to singing(Siren). I just hope the final evolution can somehow incorporate all three of those aspects.
I had heard that there’s a little cinema scene after you choose your starter where it basically makes it seem like the starter has to think about whether it actually WANTS to go with you or not. I love that! Seems like these games have a bunch of small and big details to set themselves apart from past entries. Which it is awesome!! lol
Player(avoided all spoilers): I choose you Litten!
Litten: *sigh* I’ll only disappoint you
I would honestly not have been disappointed
so is the end game credits the starters holding you now
Haha can’t wait till the demo gets severely datamined and leaks the whole game after all the effort they put into the press taster info being controlled… :'(
Seriously though it’s kind of scary that’s probably what’ll happen, honestly only GF could put themselves in such ironic and frustrating situations for the simple reason that that’s how they roll…
It’s not like it needed the demo publicity anyway.
What if it gets datamined and nothing is in there?
Could very well happen, but it’s extremely unlikely because of the amount of effort it would take. Fingers crossed though.
I hope not. I know gamefreak knows ORAS was leaked through so they wouldnt do it for sun and moon
I hope you’re right, but this is GF we’re talking about here. But part of he is holding onto the hope that they’ve learned from their mistakes.
*me
This guy call himself a leaker but u don’t have to believe him. http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1476405560846.png
The orbit minior thing is cool, I really hate the snowman. I really hope this isn’t real, that would be horrible to have that thing be the only ice type.
Other guy try to re drawing them maybe looks better now…..I like the snow man here. http://is.4chan.org/vp/1476404757651.jpg
Hey who does this guy claim to be? By this I mean what story is he telling to make people believe him?
No story…just leaking.
Hmm. Probs just art then.
Also I hope Marshadow is part of the plot, I really hate what they did with Zygarde, and chances are there’s no third version at this point. Also coccoon seems unlikely considering that Yveltal just had a coccoon form one gen ago.
I like this Marshadow concept it looks like a dark hall or plants swallower.
The concept is very cool, yeah, but I hope it doesn’t take a backseat in these games.
I really like a lot of these, especially the Cutiefly evo, Pikipek evo, and the Morelull evo.
No water/psychic dolophin though, instead it would be flying/fairy according to this
RIP
Are the things on the right the fossils? I really like the spider thing.
I believe it’s Wimpod evo.
Oh, I see it. But shouldn’t it be blue?
yeah he talked about that ……but these looks closer to Wimpod.
The knight one is supposed to be the Wimpod evo

Having Alolan Seadra would be weird, though I like the design. Would it just be unable to evolve or something?
NO KOMALA 🙁
Are you kidding the drummer looks great!
I mean its a cool concept but like the leaker badly drew
These are all pretty dang cool, I could get behind these! (except alolan persian, dunno wtf is wrong with it but this doesn’t make it look good.
Orthocere and Eurypterid fossils, count me in!
Yeah, but if Morelull evo looks like this I will give up on it.
This person isn’t much of an artist but I could see this being legit
Marshadow based on Ouroborus yet isn’t a dragon or a snake..? Idk, man.
I always want a Ouroborus legendary pkmn …but I don’t mind the scorpion.
I just hope Wimpod remains Bug/Water, I don’t want that type taken away AGAIN, looking at you Surskit ¬_¬
Stupid Masquerain should’ve still been Bug/Water
I don’t really see why it couldn’t have been. Just because it can fly.
Exactly. They love to throw around flying type on bug pokemon that don’t need it.
This wat real bug life circle looks like…..larvae should stay on water and leave it when grow up.
Still could’ve been water type.
Being able to fly doesn’t mean it needs the Flying type. It can’t learn Fly. Venomoth, Beedrill, Dustox, Volbeat, Illumise, Volcarona, all can Fly (Volcarona actually can learn it) yet none have the Flying type. I agree that it should follow a real life bug cycle, I don’t particularly agree with the Type change.
then they should choose a bug actually can live in the water.
Well it can live around water, Surskit is a Water Strider so technically only lives on top of it.
I love that Cutiefly evolution
More like Beautifly. Oh wait. . .
Shoot if this is real then I’m goona have to say goodbye to Ninetails
So..who will take it place?
Cutiefly of course 😛
I thought u choose Cutiefly at the beginning.
No, but I might if it turns into this goddess.
I don’t like it becoming so humanoid. But I guess the second evo does stand up. :/
NER ITZ TER FEMERNEREN!
Lol now I’m just imagining Cutiefly with a huge muscular body
That’s what UB-02 Absorption really is.
OH MY GOD
I want this to be real so bad
I want it to be real just for Marshadow and maybe Salandit.
!!!! I love Salandit too!! Salandit and Cutiefly are the best
Salandit looks fake. It doesn’t even have legs…how is that lizard-like?
It’s supposed to be like Medusa (can’t think of what they’re called)
Gorgon
Yep that’s it
I can’t see there being a gorgon inspired pokemon without it being part of a trio. Also, why would a salamander represent madusa best?
It has a few cool things but like half of it is disgusting. What have they done to Pikipek? Why does Bounsweet look so happy with being turned into a drink?
Bounsweet was lobotomized.
If it’s real they probably look better than these MSpaint drawings
I know, but I have a gut feeling it’s fake (and I hope it is). Sadly we won’t have to speculate much longer.
Well with the demo coming soon, we’ll see lots of new evolutions
And we’ll see lots of datamining. 🙁
Let’s hope there isn’t much to mine
These are so out of the box and all clearly take what pokemon does best: a little scale or wing here or a stripe there and then expands on it in the evo. These just might be real.
hopefully they arent real, I do like them all that much… (considering the bad drawing skills)
I have no interest in Pokken Tournament as it has too little Pokemon, and them just adding 1 at a time seems too painful.
when ur stuck between 6 pokemon now for your sixth spot….
What have you got so far?
Lycanroc Midnight
Crabrawler
Lurantis
PomPom Oricorio
Alolan Grimer
Jangmo-o
What are you stuck on for the Sixth then?
oh wait those are 6, heres my team
Litten
Komala
Mudsdale
Bruxish
Alolan Marowak
Oricorio!
Litten may end up part Dark, so that’d count out Alolan Grimer if you don’t like having 2 of the same type, but then I see you are using Alolan Marowak so I guess that doesn’t bother you. Personally I think you could do with a fighting type, so one of those maybe?
I was thinking that the only reason i was gonna go go grass because it covers my water type weakness.
You have enough that will take neutral hits from Water types, and deal neutral hits back. Also you may find you gain coverage moves.
thats true. i might go crabrawler or Jangmo-o
Really depends on what you like. Maybe try them out when you can and choose that way?
Lurantis duh
is it for coverage or u just love lurantis 😛
I adore it but yeah it does give good coverage
fair enough.
Pick Jangmo-o or Oricorio.
SO MANY OPINIONS AHHHH
Let me spell this out for you:
J-A-N-G-M-O—O or O-R-I-C-O-R-I-O
BACON LEGS
More like clown pants.
Pom Pom Oricorio or Lurantis
When you’re buying both games.
My teams are:
SUN (primary game):
– Rowlet
– Salandit
– Jangmo-o
– Lycanroc
– Oriocrio
– Mimikyu (or Shiruvadi if it’s available, but probably not)
MOON:
– Popplio/Litten
– Komala
– Alolan Marowak
– Alolan Raichu
– Minior
Im getting both but im planning my moon team before anything else
This likely won’t go as planned anyway, I’ll probably want to use surprise pokemon.
Yea sometimes i change last minute
