They actually applied to join our staff the last time we were looking for new forum moderators, back in January.
I think you mean significantly more likely. People thinking this isn't real are more in denial than anything I'd say...
What? Grass/Ground, Fire/Fighting, Water/Steel. Ground and fighting both beat steel whereas steel is fuckuseless against Torterra and Infernape...
Holy shit, what does this mean? Leaker was leaking info since then? Or the leaker just copied-pasta'd the stuff?

It don't make sense. He said Patrice few days ago, now it's Sycamore?
I would understand if it's Sycamore since it's actually tree name. Why mention Patrice in first place.

He said a professor, not the professor.

Could be another Professor. Can't imagine the same professor giving you two pokemon anyway.

Well, I'm not sure since they usually use character from their own region to give away their own region starter pokemon so far, so they decided to use stranger professor to give away the pokemon.
Gen V had two Professors.

Who is second? I forget.
Maybe each section of the region has a professor to it? The Pokedex is split up accordingly.

Either Fennel or Juniper The Elder. Either way, it's not as clean-cut as say, Elm and Oak in Johto.

I lumped Fennel in same group as Bill and other. Is Elder retired?

If I was him I would've used that information to cheat at the Speculation Contest for X/Y Bulbagarden always has.

No one seems to be able to agree on WTF happened in that segment.
Hell, we have Bulba in here saying that it "hints" at being weak to fighting and strong to ice where as Serebii Joe, from what I have read, only thinks it hints to being strong against Ice (in relation to these rumors and how they contradict the segment) and others simply think that it's resistant to ice if anything ... or that she simply used a fighting type move.
So all we know is that it's not fighting typed, not steel type but is resistant to ice maybe.
So yeeaaaah ... we will likely know more by Sat so w/e.
As far as I can see WPM released the names and credits this same source with that ... so it doesn't matter who his source is (if it's that Bulbagarden guy or someone he knows or w/e), they're still more credible than anything else we have now so I'm taking his (WPM) word on it for the time being..

Are we sure the segment demonstrated that Slyveon is super effective against Ice, and not that it effects it normally?
dakkumauji

The thing with the segment is that it didn't really say anything out loud. The hosts didn't say look, that's super effective against Ice or she's weak to fighting. Instead, she just did a bunch of things and all we can do is speculate till they actually tell us.

Well the reason the experiment was conducted was to determine if Sylveon was Fighting, right? Well if Sylveon didn't break the ice we would think Ice resisted it, like the rock. Since this isn't a scenario where there are only two outcomes, breaking the Ice doesn't necessarily mean it's super effective. Only that it's not resisted.

This has been my stance on it all this time really.
I think that's why neither of these big sites are able to point at this and say they're 100% sure.
Plus ... come on. Does Ice REALLY need more types that are SE against it?
I really hope that this fairy type is motivated by more than metagame balance.
A simpler way to nerf dragons would be to reduce the base power of their attacks.
There's always much more room to maneuver balance by taking things away than there is by adding new things. As a rule, the more stuff you add, the harder it is to balance everything together.

Oh damn. The pig is black/white haha. My bad.
Fullest explanation of all the leak drama over the past few days
Honestly, all the drama's really stupid, but stuff like this is why I love the buildup to these games so much.

Yep, those Nintendo ninjas.
This drama and all these fake leaks have been fun to read and not be involved of.
I just read all of that. -_- I never realized Pokemon was all "srs bizness".
In case anyone didn't bother to read because it was TL;DR, Pokebeach will post the English names of 5 new Pokemon tomorrow along with some other minor news.

There's more to that, just check /vp/ in the Conspiracy thread. TPCi went to the source's dorm and signed a contract.

We'll just have to wait until next month to see if "Fariy" type is confirmed. If it does, way to go to /vp/ for ruining this for everyone! Looks like there'll be no more leaks going forward.

People thought we would never get a big leak ever again after the big Black and White leak.

Haha, the leakers are Digipen students? Oh man, they're fucked. Should've made a bigger distance between themselves and "the source".

This is leaking 101: Don't leak stuff with an account that is not only linked to your place of work/study but also linked (easily I might add) to your actual name. Especially not when the company whose information you're leaking used to be in the same building as your classroom.

I totally missed the leaking drama, oh boy. Internet fame is too tempting for some people. I could totally leak two-semi big titles but I'm way too afraid that I could risk someone's job (I didn't sign an NDA).

Digipen is strict huh?

Probably. Unless the source was mixing fake info in with his real info. I doubt that though.

Semi big? Are you fucking kidding me? These will probably be the best selling games of this year. Top three at worst.
