Leak season has begun boys and girls. Obviously MAJOR SPOILERS will be posted in this thread so avoid if you don't want to see!

Discuss it here!

Anddddd back to the Spoiler Bunker thread.

How on earth did the game itself leak though?!

Someone with a review copy. Probably a youtuber.

The guy in the thread implies that he works at a store that already got the shipment.

 

[Qurupeke]

Rowlet is confirmed to be shit, all hail Popplio.

 

[agent00]

Damnit. I need this game now

 

[Mistouze]

"fake and gay"

Stay losing, 4chan.

 

[RuinerPrime]

Rowlet confirmed to be fake and gay. according to the screen shot.

Did they get any NES Classic Edition consoles?

Rowlets base stats(neutral nature accoring to leaker)

I'll copy/paste my post from the other leak thread

On Rowlet, I mean we extrapolated that he would be slow and bulky from the pre release footage, but I still burst out laughing when I saw his base stats (Rowlet had a neutral nature according to the leaker)

Whilst Grass/Ghost is an interesting attacking typing, defenses wise it's barely any better than Grass/Flying. To stand a chance as a Grass/Ghost in the meta you need to be speedy and able to take out Pokemon quickly, because being a slow Grass/Ghost Pokemon is suicide in a meta where everyone and their mother is running around spamming Knock Off, Ice Beam and Fire Blast/Flamethrower, Trevanant and co can attest to that.

As it stands it looks like the Rowlet line will be joining it's fellow Grass/Ghost mons down in the lower teirs.

Hmm. Let's see how this pans out

Grass starter speed stat is going to be shit again, isn't it?

 

[Forkball]

Why is this guy not streaming it somewhere?

THERE'S A WHOLE SITE DEDICATED TO THAT.

nintendo ninjas would be all of that shit you know

No link to a thread? /vp/ I assume?

Here we goooooooo

XY was being streamed before release. Same with Smash. Granted I think those were closer to the actual release date, but still.

Stuff I stole from twitter.

Seems to be just this one guy. I don't like the fate of spoilers being in the hands of a single man, that's too much power.

Decidueye may still excel even if Rowlet is underwhelming. Especially with it remaining unknown how much his evos will boost his stats and whether his hidden ability is something boss.

 

[MannyToons]

How are we coming to the conclusion that Decidueye will be slow based on its base form? T_T

 

[NSESN]

Cmon GF stop doing tanky grass starters

Just lowering our expectations. There is still some hope for a fast Decidueye.

TRIGGERED!!!

 

[Not75Drops]

The stat growth for the starters up to now hasn't really fluctuated. What they have in their base form is usually consistent with the final evolution. Decidueye's description still says its fast and I think its speed could increase dramatically, though that may mean nothing in the end when it comes to stats.

pokemon stat distribution don't change much with there evolutionist just look at the other staters

sure some change but most of the time they stay the same

any way i don't think decidueye is gonna be a bulky mon by the end, he is a sniper. snipers aren't about defence

 

[ubiblu]

My Sky3DS+ is ready. Don't fail me now!

One word. Escavalier.

Ignore descriptions completely when trying to make an educated guess on the stats of a Pokemon, they're always utter nonsense.

 

[Forkball]

More junk.

 

[SkullHydra]

Wow, this is much earlier than I thought.

I mostly just want to see the names and typing for some of those datamined Pokémon, without spoiling the story.

EDIT: Oh shoot, Leafage is Physical. Nice!

 

[Lkr]

This is looking fucking good

How did he get it? Leaked through Eshop servers or did he find a cart in the wild?

HYPE! HYPE! HYPE!

I'm so ready for this.

To be fair we've never had a Starter switch Types like Dartrix -> Decidueye does.

I think he was working with a store that got an early shipment.

Please tell us more about your plans to pirate the game.

 

[MaximumSpider]

I just want him to beat the game and get to that delicious post game.

 

[PadWarrior]

Were the base stats of Litten leaked? Do we know whether ash greninja is breedable?

Only one guy has the game so far so he doesn't have access to Litten since he went with Rowlet.

Just psyched to potentially play it early. Doubtful my pre-ordered copy will arrive before launch.

Shucks.

 

[UberTag]

Curious to see whether any of the following Melemele Island (aka Island 1) mysteries get unveiled by the leaker today...
- Alolan Dugtrio's typing/abilities
- Pikipek's evolution names and typing/abilities
- Crabrawler's evolution name and typing/abilities
- The unnamed sea urchin/anemone pokemon's evolution names and typing/abilities

I'm betting on no.

 

[Starwolf_UK]

I'm guessing that bottom option (Party/Box) is to do with what we saw in the catching section of the demo. That is, when you capture a Pokemon with a full party you were able to choose one of your party members to be sent to the PC. I'm assuming that is what the (default?) manual is.

Saving is nothing new it seems :lol:

 

[Stairouais]

Being out of the loop with pokemon games is really weird.

From the outside, it seems that 99,9% of the game has already leaked (offically or not)... I understand that there're few elements of surprise in a Pokemon game, but still...

 

[GoldStarz]

Even though he has said on multiple occasions he doesn't report on game leaks? lol ok

There's a lot more than 0.1% we don't know about. New pokemon types, pokemon stats, movepools, abilities, hidden abilities, post game, etc.

Is that only since he got caught pirating BW?

 

[Torokil]

I'm actually shocked Rowlett actually turned out to be a shitmon, I would have bet that they would've made him OP like Greninja and make him the "mascot" of gen VII.

Yea now I'm curious about what Litten stats will be.

We don't really know he's a shitmon yet. But being below 100 speed with be a pretty big blow.

 

[Brawly Likes to Brawl]

I don't think he ever got caught by Nintendo for that. But what changed his policy on leaks was when he posted that full set of dex images for BW that was leaked and got a C&D for it.
