You should use minus.com and create an album and share the link since it would be easier to view the pictures.

Ah, that looks good, thank you. Under the conditions I get it on the 11th I'll be very happy to share absolutely everything with anyone, including stuff like evolve levels, items locations, Gym Leader and trainer rosters, encounters, new Pokemon, new moves, learnset, basically pretty much anything I can find! I know Serebii and the like will probably cover this all but it's still worth a go.

Reviews won't have that much new information I'm afraid, still a lot of restrictions

The good stuff will have to wait till the 12th.

So will a lot of reviews be edited on the 12th to include more information then? And, you have the game, correct? I assume you aren't permitted to debunked any rumours?

 

[Charlie0108]

Sorry about this.

 

[Sponge]

In two weeks we will look back at this thread and laugh.

Or cry.

I'm already laughing. I can't believe people are calling this fake.

It's Wottergate all over again, time pop some popcorn.

 

[Drago]

I really hate what I'm seeing of Greninja, so it's probably real. ;(

 

[Qurupeke]

I don't know what to believe anymore... Nothing is confirmed, right?

 

[Dr. Buni]

Whoever did that compared the 4chan leak picture (Greninja) with the Pokebeach picture (Binacle and Hawlucha).

It needs to be compared with the 4chan pictures.

Hm... Either way, that proves that the Hawlucha pic isn't photoshoped, doesn't it? So the Pokémon must be real.

I really hate what I'm seeing of Greninja, so it's probably real. ;(

I really like what I am seeing of Greninja, so it is probably fake. ;_;

 

[Trigger]

Dear Greninja,

The twist is the Greninja isn't real.

Spoiler

I hope.

The most important embargo? Release. Reviews will go live sooner, should be end of next week or so.

what are you allowed to tell us in your review? can you tell us anything which wasn't already officially anounced till then (i.e. new pokemon or the like)?

I'm already laughing. I can't believe people are calling this fake.

neither can i.

Pretty sure this "proved" the starter evos fake last gen too... We all remember how that turned out.

 

[MetalGuardian]

Under circumstances for a normal gen (if I can even call it that), I would be fine with 70 new pokemon. I've been playing this damn series since R/B, and I've STILL never completed the pokedex (though it is on my bucket list!)

The designs for this gen have been do damn excellent though, I want as many as I can get. Especially since Gen VII will be, well, way too far into the future.

As for the "lack of post-game" rumor... that would assuredly suck too, but AT LEAST that sort of stuff is usually addressed with the third version.

Time to get the Pokemon Z hype train rolling!

Dear Greninja,

Please be fake forever more.

 

[Dawg]

Can't say much, just that the NDA is one of the most strict out there. I've reviewed many games, big sony exclusives and all, but this is the first game where things are under a very tight wrap.

Reviews will talk about some new stuff, but don't expect any megatons yet. Unless big sites like IGN received a lighter NDA. New Pokémon are a no go afaik.

 

[spindashing]

Dear Greninja,

You are ass.

I don't know anything about it. I just thought the purpose is to compare the two pics taken by the same person.

Someone did that here, and I don't know what it proves at all: http://www.pokebeach.com/forums/thr...and-potential-spoilers?pid=2532976#pid2532976

Dear Greninja,

Please be fake forever more.

I like the design for the most part, but man, the tongue wrapping around his neck like he's trying to strangle himself is way less cool than the epic bubble-beard that most of us were probably imagining.

Strange that they go from Brigadier (fitting with the french theme) to Ninja.
Even weirder is that the french name for Frogadier doesn't actually use Brigadier.

 

[Courage]

I'm getting Pokemon Y but I have no idea what's going on in this thread.

Can someone summarize?

 

[DMG-01]

I'mma get real here, guys: I got the guide early from a friend in retail. And while I told myself that I wouldn't leak anything, I can't watch you guys suffer like this. So, ladies and gentlemen, I give you Fennekin3: http://i.imgur.com/YAHovVG.png

You people astound me. Froakie does a ninja pose in the starter select menu, he acts like a ninja in the anime, the evolution looks like a ninja, you guys should have seen this coming. The localization team choosing a stupid way to name it doesnt mean anything when GF already had something in mind for the concept.

Frogs that use their tongues as scarves.

Can someone summarize?

There is a Froakie final form, a luchador bird and a turd-anemone monster floating around that have a decent chance of being real. We're still debating the validity of the Froakie form due to invisible weirdness with the picture. (

Spoiler

That and some froakie fans are in severe denial mode.

I swear new Pokemon are looking more like Digimon every gen

Same with me.

It's Gen V all over again.

 

[DragonKnight]

Thank god for new york mom and pop stores. I cant take this shit anymore.

 

[Dawg]

Did you start playing yet?

What do you think?

Really can't say more though. I should really stop viewing this thread till the 4th (and even then) because it's hard to NOT reply to certain stuff I've managed just fine for now though.

Those leakers on the other hand though... Wouldn't want to be in their shoes. Nintendo ninjas aren't a myth

i'm saying it's weird that they even went with "Frogadier". makes no sense Ninja name is fine.

I'm guessing the other person on GAF who has the game did a bit of a naughty in debunking previous rumours?

(((((((((((((((((. Im gonna read deeply into this sentence and say that there are def more than 70 pokes.

Edit: Fuck. Or maybe not lol.

 

[Courage]

Is Chespin still GOAT?

 

[Diprosalic]

i have leaked nintendo shit in the past that was still under NDA. nothing happened.

obviously i didn't sign a NDA.

 

[R0ckman]

As long as the 70 new pokes myth is killed I dont give a shit about anything else. I like the frog and the only thing else I want is a farfetch'd evo.

 

[subtles]

Samurais and Ninjas.

I was hoping Fennekin evolves into a Fire/Fairy rather than a Fire/Psychic but I'd take anything over another Fire/Fighting starter.

 

[Kouriozan]

Who are you and what have you done to Diprosalic? x)

 

[Caladrius]

No idea. The leaker freaked out and deleted everything before he could show the other two.

 

[Dawg]

Depends on the game, I think. Did you see how those pokebeach leakers went from leaking to "oh they're fake" and "looking forward to x/y" ?

 

[Deleted member 17706]

These people have to be signing NDAs with Nintendo to get review copies, right?

Doesn't seem too smart to leak all of this information. Especially that Italian person. I mean, how many review copies could have been sent out for Italy? I imagine it's a small number.

i have leaked nintendo shit in the past that was still under NDA. nothing happened.

obviously i didn't sign a NDA.

And that's the big difference...

 

[Diprosalic]

it was a huge game. i didn't sign a NDA tho.

 

[Zalman]

I was hoping Fennekin evolves into a Fire/Fairy rather than a Fire/Psychic but I'd take anything over another Fire/Fighting starter.

I seriously wonder what went through Game Freak's mind when making a third Fire/Fighting starter.

 

[R0ckman]

No idea. The leaker freaked out and deleted everything before he could show the other two.

I thought everything he posted converted into "I can't wait to play pokemon xy!"

 

[DaBoss]

Summary

Some person on 4chan posts these images:

Nobody knows whether it is real or not (other than those on NDA playing the game and laughing at all of us in this thread). The name of the first Pokémon is Hawlucha. The name of the second is Greninja (and is the evolution of Frogadier).


Later, someone (username is rdecargh) goes into the PokeBeach rumors/spoilers discussion thread and posts this info:

-aerodactyle will have a megaevo
-exp.share can be activate to share exp with ALL Pokémon in the team
-some place have 3d actually but overworld is 90% without it
-teamflare uses a lot of houndour / zubat etc. classic Pokémon from rival team
-circlepad=rollerskate / direction buttons=running
-you can choose 4 obj to be used with Y
-pokedex is 3d so be sure to slide up the 3d slider!
-binacle is n.21 Pokémon in the coast pkdx, its like a sea creatures with two heads -anemon I think their called?- (i guess its evolution will have three...) and its rock/water

Then says Hawlucha is real and that it is both Flying/Fighting types:

hawlucha is real trust me, dont know the other since I didnt choose the froggy
hawlucha is nr.89 in the coast pkdx, its flying/fighting type which is pretty cool story bro right?
its 0,8m and 21,5kg. thanks you too

Then posts these pictures:

The second image is a Pokémon named Binacle and is Rock/Water.

But after this, rdcargh claims that he/she Photoshopped all of that and none of what he/she posted is true. People can't tell if rdcargh is telling the truth about Photoshopping. Most people (including myself) think that he/she is backtracking and wants to not be "taken down by the ninjas".

rdcargh then deletes the images off of PokeBeach and edits any posts he/she made to remove any info made.
--------------------------
I think that about covers it.

Thank you based dawg for confirming our flying luchadore. Fucking dope.

It was pretty funny - same thing happened to the playtester who did that PB leak earlier this year, the one which turned out to be like >85% right.

 

[Deleted member 231381]

I like all of Greninja apart from the tongue-scarf. The design was so close. Still sticking with Greninja, though, if only because Chespin is derpy as fuck and Fennekin likely to end up in Renamon territory.

 

[Charlie0108]

So I'm guessing all of this is genuine then?

 

[DragonKnight]

Seems that way. Shame about the 70 pokes.

 

[Elfteiroh]

I feel so sorry for whomever took that avatar bet backing Froakie3 against Chespin3. You could not have made a bigger mistake. A tongue scarf, really?

Also, that Diglett Pie monster is the only Pokemon that I absolutely hate. It's ugly, disturbing, and I hope to god that it isn't this gen's Geodude or Roggenrola.



Double the mass.

Would be the tentacool of this gen, it's aquatic
