  1. From GameXplain’s latest video:
    GX said that GF said “we have to work so hard to find the right mix and balance of pokemon
    —–
    At first I thought of commenting this as a joke, as the leaked dex is completely imbalanced, but then I realized it’s another loose connection. What’s that saying again? Oh yeah! “It all comes together”! xD

  2. Something else from GX’s video: GF apparently put alot of effort into post game and wanted to focus on longevity this time. This is exicting to me at least! ^.^

  3. S/M developers had some interviews, here are some important points:
    – Hawaii was picked because of vacations and that they wanted a place that represents the S/M.
    – Kanto Pokemon were picked only as Alolan Pokemon due to the 20th anniversary.
    – Previous characters from other games will make an appearance.
    – No soaring from OR/AS.
    – The next game is seems to still be in planning.
    – 3D only for cutscenses because GameFreak wanted to have more detailed models and environment, so they restricted the use.
    – No Mega Evolution during the main story. It will be post game as it will focus on Z-Rings and Crystals for the main game.
    – Battles will take place in actual environments.
    – They’re not running out on designs and they want to balance types.

  4. not gunna lie I’m sorta upset that they didn’t at least finish mega flygon. they wanted it in ORAS but couldn’t come up with a solid design, and decided “F*ck it” and scrapped the idea.

  5. Ok sorry for what looks like spam, but I swear last comment about GX’s video: GF focused on kanto for alola forms because they wanted to give something special to their 20 year long fans. Nothing against people who have been playing for 20 years, but every single person I’ve ever met who has started with gen 1 has been a genwunner. Sure, for the twentieth anniversary, let’s cater to our special fans who won’t even appriaciate these forms and disregard them for being “new”.

    Obvious joke is obvious

    I was helping my mother clear my grandmothers house of clutter to sell and I was allowed to take anything I wish

  7. I have a question

    The little two spacy Pokemon are seem to come after each other in some Pokedex pictures and I only see them coming before Solgaleo and Lunaana in one Pokedex picture. Which one is correct?

    Reply
    • Tese little 2 actually come before Solgaleo and Lunaana I didn’t know y ppl think they r pre-evolution but for sure they r related by some, maybe core or supporter.

      Reply
      • Yes if they are after each other, and not one before Sol and one before Luna then they are not preevolutions. That’s why I wonder the order.

  8. Ok, I apoligize to those of you who I actually offended with my joke a few minutes ago, maybe it was a little too profiling for a joke.

  9. Comment Question: If you were a Gym Leader/Elite Four/Champion/Kahuna/Evil Team Leader/Trial Captain, what would your type specialty/theme be and the Pokemon you would use?

  10. @TCRowlet I remembered some more evidence.
    Charizard isn’t in the leaked dex, despite being a ride pokemon and being seen in many trailers.

    Reply
  11. Remember the Lumiose ghost? The horde of faceless men? The Couriway train? The locked doors at the Kalos Power Plant?

    I wonder if GF just forgot about these or they’re planning on expanding on these.. in the remakes

    Reply
  12. @TCRowlet IT’S ALL FLOODING BACK NOW
    Horsea isn’t in the dex leaks, despite being on a statue and it’s evos being seen in many trailers. They wouldn’t make a statue of a non native pokemon.

  14. I love the fact that HMs no longer exist. Like, it’s a relief that they learned they can do roadblocks through other, less aggravating means.
