Evidence for Pokémon Direct THIS WEEK Found

by

Intrepid gamers have dug deep to uncover evidence that suggests a new Nintendo Direct is likely be held this week. They have based this on the pattern which Nintendo follows when updating their site ahead of upcoming presentations.

Although Pokémon games are not usually announced at the American E3 gaming convention, they are commonly revealed during the month of May. Information on the follow-up to last year’s Pokémon Sun & Moon is highly expected before the end of the month.

This means that the next direct to come from Nintendo has a high probability of focusing on Pokémon and what’s next for the main series.

Sound the hype horn!

  1. So I met a pokemon Go youtuber today… His name is Mystic7.

    I was just walking down Miami beach and there was a hoard of 8-13 year olds so I decided to check it out since they all had pokemon hats on.

    And yeah. This guy has like 1.5 mill subs.

    In other news, I am praying for some sort of announcement. Please GameFreak give us something

  2. Since we are talking about Poketubers let’s do this. What are your top 5 favorite Poketubers out there?

    My top 5 are:

    1. TheKingNappy – all of his content just makes me laugh and smile so much. It’s always fun.
    2. Shofu – such a great competitive battler, and the cypher 2016 made me fall out of my seat
    3. Shadypenguinn – when he played pokemon (now he does other stuff) his attitude and sheer excitement was awesome.
    4. TrainerTips – even tho Pokemon GO is mostly for casuals, I love how informed Nick is about everything and knows exactly what real Pokemon fans want out of the game
    5. Maybe a tie between aDrive and Aaron Zheng’s channel – just love their competitive content

    • I’ve just dipped into following Youtubers. I found Claire Siobhan when I was looking for what Mods to download for my Skyrim and liked her weirdness, so I subbed and watched her playthroughs. And then she’s dating Ali-A so I follow him now too…but they’re about as close to “poketubers” as I’ve gotten.

  4. Okay, I’ve decided I’m selling my WiiU to try and get a Switch. The only real downsides to that are that I won’t be able to play Smash (and it might be ported anyway) my favorite Mario game: Super Mario 3D world, or Wind Waker..although I have the gamecube version of Wind Waker, but I’d need a game card and controller to play it on the Wii. I feel like it’ll be worth it in the end though.

      • thx so much!!!. It’s not done, so the claw looks big currently, but it’s gonna actually be a perspective thing once the lighting is right 😀

    • Hmm…Its quite good. The face is very well done from a stylistic sense managing to capture a unique look for it while being well lighted/shadowed. The tuf’s of fur are really well done and look very natural and good. I can see some of the obvious points that your probably going to touch up on like the upper chest looks a little wobbly for lack of a better word and thinks like that back leg and back claw look off. However for something done in 25 minutes it looks really good. Kinda reminds me of the Game Grumps Pokemon art academy art from ages ago. So really well done.

      • I actually am like only 17-20% done so it’ll look much better (I plan to make the bigger claw look like a perspective sorta thing, and the back claw will eventually be blurred out since I intend for Weavile to have a sense of running very fast).

        But very well said my friend 😀 I intended for the face to look a bit unique and for the lighting to have an eerie mood. I imagined Weavile passing by a snowy highway running through the shadows at night avoiding the light!!

      • Lol my intention was for it to have a darker feel with moody lighting. I guess it’s a stylistic thing that I do lol

        • It’s not negative per se, just unexpectedly gritty.
          Like dark modern batman vs 1960s shark repellent batman – equally good, but different intentions.

          (When it comes down to it art is all subjective anyway, only the artist’s opinion matters.)

      • Yah, the face will be much smoother once I finish blending and adding the details. I’ll post it once I’m done later and then it’ll be awesome!!!!

  12. Plot twist: next game takes place in Alimia and is a main series game. Why? No reason

  17. I guess were a day or so away from Corocoro leaking. Doesn’t it normally leak on the 9th or 10th in Japan, or am I thinking incorrectly?

    Reply

    • The 10th is normally the earliest we’ll get it. That said unless it has something crazy juicy it prolly own’t leak until the 12th/13th and even then if it has nothing worthy of leaking then it may not leak at all.
