Yesterday's Pokémon Smash (a Pokémon-themed Japanese variety show for those of you not in the know) confirmed that both this months edition of CoroCoro Comic (due in the next few days) and next week''s episode of Smash will feature brand-new information on the forthcoming Pokémon games. At the very earliest, we will know this news when CoroCoro leaks before Wednesday, but I'd like to remind everyone that SCANS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BE POSTED. POSTING SCANS WILL RESULT IN A BAN.

 

[Schadenfreude]

My Pokeballs are ready.

 

[Snakeyes]

Calling it now: rival and professor reveal

 

[Aggrotek]

The wait is killing me.

 

[Andrefpvs]

I want to go on a media blackout, but I guess taking a look at this early information won't hurt.

 

[MasterSheen]

Soon

 

[grimshawish]

INCOMING

Calling it now: rival and professor reveal

Professor Ash would be a great name to confuse people and retain the tree motif.

 

[Bel_Air_Jeff]

WOOOOOOO

[Aeana]

This OP will be updated with news as soon as it drops.

No it won't; a new thread will be made with news when it drops.

 

[789shadow]

I need itttttttttttttttttttt...........

 

[Schadenfreude]

FUCK YEAH. We also need a poll.

Who's winning the starter poll in the other thread?

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Hopefully some details on the region and a few pokes thrown in.

 

[TacticalFox88]

No it won't; a new thread will be made with news when it drops.

I laughed at this WAY harder than I should have.

Holy shit.

 

[SovanJedi]

Calling it now: rival and professor reveal

And 2-3 Pokeymans.

 

[Qurupeke]

Fennekin.

Spoiler

Eatchildren is actually first...

Trainer reveal? I thought we already know their looks going by fan art posted in other X Y threads.

 

[zroid]

EatChespin

 

[Qurupeke]

Okay I expect 2-4 new pokemon. I bet on the rodent and the bird, along with two key pokemon for the anime. If we're lucky they could also reveal the second evos of the starter, even thought it's too early. Also, probably we'll have details for Xerneas and Yveltal, such as typing and classification. I expect announcement of some key features like the 6 gen's cgear/poketch/pokegear/etc. And details on at least one new area, probably the first town/city. Finally, art for the trainers and the rival.

 

[Gintoki313]

Seriously now I'm starved for news about the next Pokemon game. I'm getting a 3DSXL just for it and Luigi's Dark Moon.

Heck I'm so starved I'll even take a cheesy "who's that pokemon," reveal of a new pokemon. Lol anyone remember these from the TV show.

 

[Winterfang]

FINALLY!!

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Actual X/Y news is probably going to be sparse, it's going to focus more so on Movie 16 and the probable New Pokemon withing...potentially New Eeveelutions and/or the Pseudo-Legendary Lucario/Zoroark type.

 

[Unicorn]

Hype thread, hyping a hype thread to come.

[Schadenfreude]

Fennekin.

EatChespin

How can any starter hope to compete against Eatchildren?

They started doing those again in the new episodes of the show.

 

[LeleSocho]

I hope the news is that they have thrown the 3d stuff away for a full 2d game

 

[73V3N]

New types.

So, I'm guessing an Eeveelution and a

[Boss Doggie]

In hindsight, we actually got more new Pokemon in XY's reveal vs. last gen's reveal.

Anyway, my Chespin is ready. GO CHESPIN!

 

[injurai]

oh god...

it begins again

 

[The Lamp]

Yeah let's devolve back to gross low quality 2D sprites with lazy animation that haven't proportionally improved with time over the past 15 years.

No.

 

[Kurtofan]

News will come, new fanarts will come and then weird fanart will come, thus is the PokeCycle.

 

[Grakl]

Oh shit.

*gets Chespin fanart ready*

 

[Refyref]

News will come, new fanarts will come and then weird fanart will come, thus is the PokeCycle.

The last one will not necessarily be after the middle one.

 

[ZeroAKA]

Oh god, I'm worried about Chespin's evo. :/

 

[Lucario]

GO CHESPIN!

. Also, Chespin shouldn't evolve. Just make him get stronger and make his hat bigger or something.

 

[Salvadora]

Keep the Pokemon under wraps and reveal some of the gameplay changes, please.

 

[Andrefpvs]

Keep the Pokemon under wraps and reveal some of the gameplay changes, please.

I'm actually hoping for this. But of course they'll have at least one new Pokémon.

 

[Grakl]

Time to rehost a bunch of images.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Kinda peeved on thread title though. News imply it's new unless you add "old"

Keep the Pokemon under wraps and reveal some of the gameplay changes, please.

Judging by history they're usually spread around updates.

 

[Qurupeke]

mascot for the Genesect movie.

I'm pretty sure the movie won't have mammal. So, it needs something to compete with Genesect. Probably not legendary thought. So it needs an advantageous type. It's only weakness is Fire, so a Fire type. Also, we need another resistance to bug, steel. As far as I remember, Steel resists to itself and bug. So Fire/Steel, that's it. A robo-dinosaur that was the predator of Genesect on the ancient times!

 

[zroid]

Obligatory re-post of this image

 

[IntelliHeath]

All board on PokeHype Train.

No.

Yeah let's make a game that will look like complete garbage ass in less than 5 years since 3d graphics evolve exponentially just because people want more mainstream shit than fully developed well done 2d arts that was just getting started to be fully animated.

No.
