I would like to ask you guys to keep from discussing the data mine leaked mons in this community. The game is still a month out and people would like to enter this game as spoiler free as possible. If you want to discuss the data mine leak, keep it within PMs with eachother.

I can respect that just, can we not even discuss them on this thread? Cause if someone wants to be spoiler free but is looking at this, they are doing something wrong.

I think the scale is a bit too big.I mean the trailers are nice to get insight to whether or not you want to buy the game but spoiling a datamine can be too huge and ruin the surprises.

Us Auth don't have a problem with officially released content, but information that is not released by Nintendo seems to be where most of us draw the line. We are still discussing how to handle this matter, when these leaks dropped only a small fraction of us were alive and awake.

don't answer this question here, but what lead you to think that the Chinese leaks were 100% real?

First and foremost

They got Alolan machamp wrong for one so it isn't 100% Chinese leak can suck a d i c c

Second, I don't know what anyone expected, but I'm happy.

On the plus side, Alola has released 9 new type combinations so far, and if we do not include unique types in mega evolutions, that number becomes 12.

So even if A-Dugtrio looks horrible, we have 12 new things we can play with both in-game and competitive-wise.

If Wimpod keeps the Bug/Water typing we might actually have another awesome Bug type that trolled us back in Hoehn.

The new type combos

Normal / Dark ||| A-Ratata, A-Raticate

Ice / Steel ||| A-Sandshrew, A-Sandslash

Ice / Fairy ||| A-Ninetales

Electric / Psychic ||| A-Raichu

Grass / Dragon ||| A-Exeggutor

Bug / Fairy ||| Cutiefly, Ribombee

Normal / Fighting ||| Stufful, Bewear

Dragon / Fighting ||| Jarango, Jararanga

Normal / Dragon ||| Drampa

Poison / Fire ||| Salandit

Ghost / Fairy ||| Mimikyu

Dragon / Fire ||| Turtonator

Now if they release a Rock/Ghost, a Ground/Fighting, and a Grass/Fire pokemon I might forget they gave us the sandcastle pokemon.

For the longest time in monotype, bug has just had to deal with having no reliable answer to things like air balloon Heatran, and basically have no water stab whatsoever. Best water move was masquerain with Hydro Pump. Now, now we get this powerful looking wimpod Evo to fill this gap at last. I got the one thing I wanted most from this gen.

Can't even complain about the starters. If anything, then maybe this'll be the first gen I completely ditch my starter. Maybe I'll go with Grubbin or something

Normal/Fighting = Mega Lopunny, Meloetta Pirouette. Fire/Dragon = Reshiram, Mega Charizard X. Grass/Dragon = Mega Sceptile.

Also just curious, why do you spell Hoenn as Hoehn? (tbh the main reason I replied was to ask this, I've been wondering for a while)

I believe I mention the "unique types from Mega evolutions" there, as you can only get access to those type combos by using the specific megas, thus limiting your teambuilding quite a lot. Reshiram... I forgot about it, as I said above, because it's hidden in the limbo of Ubers.

About Hoenn, it's a funny story

Basically it's a matter of habit. When I played the third generation back then, I mistook the n as an h, and apparently everyone whom I spoke with or wrote about it didn't seem to notice or made the same mistake. Therefore, I learned it as Hoehn and still write it like this. Now I know it is not the correct spelling, but it seems much more correct to write "Hoehn" than "Hoenn". I'm not sure I can explain it in a better way.

Oops, I think I skimmed over the part about not including mega types x . x

So I (think I) finished what's currently in the demo (as in not including future events mentioned in the game).

This is probably an unusual thing to stick out to someone, but I really liked some of the graphics. I don't just mean the graphics overall, but also the type of objects that were used. As in there were buildings that had coffee machines, fire extinguishers, and others that I don't think have ever been seen in a Pokemon game before.

Also, it could just be that I wasn't doing it correctly, but it seems like we can't sit in chairs or on benches anymore like we could in XY. Not that it really matters to me.

Hopefully I remember to check every day for all the timed events ^^'

I'm just gonna ask that any discussion about information that comes through the leaks rather than official channels takes place here instead. Feel free to keep using this space as a place for discussion of official reveals. That way people who don't want to be spoiled about the datamined content don't need to worry about clicking on the spoilers in this thread.

Thanks.

So a lot of people were hoping that dugtrio with a wig was a gag and not an actual Alolan form, but I just got the event to happen myself and the lady says something along the lines of "some Pokemon have different forms here in Alola" indicating it really is Alolan Dugtrio.

You know how people keep accusing Gamefreak of running out of ideas? Yeah well it doesn't exactly help when they make stuff like "Dugtrio with wig". They didn't even change the color or anything.

I think it's a joke Pokemon tbh. There's always one of those and there's 2/3 of the alolan forms.

Besides.

You can't tell me that it doesn't have fabulous locks of hair.

Also wrong thread...

No it's not? Dugtrio with wig is an actual official reveal. Assuming you soft reset enough times to get the NPC to appear, you can see it without any datamining. If I had spoiled myself by looking at the datamine, I would have already known for a fact wether or not it's Alolan Dugtrio.
