The X & Y leaker got the secondary types of Chesnaught Y Greninja backwards but was right about everything else.
There were other details it got wrong, such as there being two professors (one that gave you the Kalos starter, one that gave you the Kanto Starter and their Mega Stone) and your friendly rival giving you the final form of their starter as opposed to the first form.

Like I said, legit leak, some mixed up details.

Who knows? :3
I honestly kinda like Litten's evo. The concept of it being a heel wrestler is interesting to me.

My main concern was that it was going to be another goddamn Fire/Fighting type, and luckily that doesn't seem to be the case.
Aren't wrestlers (regardless of specific type) typically fighters? Wouldn't that make Litten's final evolution Fire/Fighting? I mean, there's arguably a chance it could be Fire/Dark, which could make sense since heel wrestlers are described as villains from my research just now. :p

After looking at them more, the final evolutions ain't so bad.

...Still hoping the split evolution rumor is true though.

It still feels weird to see that Alolan Vulpix & Sandshrew live in a snowy area when we're talking about of a region based a chain of TROPICAL islands.

But snowy/icy areas are pretty much required in every Pokémon game so whatever.

Looks like everyone's favorite type combination is coming back exclusively in Pokemon Sun and Moon! :)

One of the leaks detailing the starter final forms gave a name and typing.

Fukuroh - Grass/Flying, Tora - Fire/Dark, and Aniku - Water/Fairy.

Could you care of explaining more in details with this rumor is or send a link? I've never heard of it.
There's... two major parts, as I've heard.
One is that you can teach Rockruff howl and leave it overnight at a specific cliff, one in each of the 4 islands, which will make it evolve into one of 4 subspecies of the evolution. Each with their own typing and movepools but in one slot. Akin to Wormadam and Meowstick.

It closed with saying that, similarly, the starter evos have a second "Form" depending if the evolutin is at day or night.

So, Lays is doing that flavor contest again

And they actually produced a chip through it I REALLY like

"Indian Tikka Masala" flavor

It's the ONLY chip in the entire contest they've ever produced that I like

Well, yeah.

It could still learn Fighting-type moves, it just wouldn't actually be a Fighting type.

Am I the only one who like the Fire/Fighting final starter evolutions, even if they are cliche at this point?

I think I'm actually going to change to team Popplio

I'm considering having Lurantis as my grass type since it's based on one of my favorite animals, the flower mantis

Ummm......

Something about that leak seems off.....
Ninetales got Ice/Fairy, not Fire/Fairy.
No, the leak is referring to stuff that was revealed today; the Alola Forms.

Because of that, I'm willing to chalk it up as simple mistake, like how the PokeBeach X/Y leaks got some details mixed up yet was still a legitimate leak.
This is what I think happened.

And there is still this leak to that could hold legitimacy.

It came later but it still holds some interesting truths to it.

I'm still curious how Sun & Moon is going to handle the transfer of Green/Red/Blue/Yellow glitches. I still don't think Missingno. is going to be canon but a number of glitches in Generation I were basically cheats too.

Imagine a future update of Pokemon Go that will give us the Alola Pokemon. Ever wonder how Alola Exeggutor would look like when you try to use the Pokemon footprint tracker?

There was a problem fetching the tweet

This was the second joke that I promised to share a few hours earlier.

I was just thinking about the pre gen 6 types

Pure Electric Magnemite. It was pure electric in gen 1

Hmm...It probably wouldn't keep pure electric upon evolution though

A pure electric magnezone

This version of Exeggutor would be exclusive to Hawaii.

The cat sounds like this gen's gimmick Pokemon.
What was the definete Gimmick Pokemon of previous Gens? Only ones that spring to mind for me are Unown, Deerling/Sawsbuck and Chatot.

Gumshoo doesn't really look "Fat" to me

Yeah, it doesn't look that fat.
But it doesn't look thin or athletic... so fat fits more imo.


Hmmm looking at this Pokemon again... I think the leak should say incredibly ugly and hairy.
I think 'fat' was used in comparison to Yungoos...
I'd say it's fat, but it could be how one views it. In comparison to Yungoose it would definitely be fat as it's doubled in weight width, and adds a little more to that. Either way, it predicted the bird, which is a pretty good one, as is alola forms as there was only one other leak that was forgotten before this one and Alola forms were laughed off by everyone and deemed very unlikely. Either way it's worth considering.

The Alola forms are really what sell both the July 4th and 15th leaks since it's something so bizzare and out of nowhere that everyone immediately dismissed it as crap. The fact that such a specific detail was guessed gives them a lot of credit and strengthens their likelihood (especially with the July 4th one stating that it changes shape, color, height, weight, etc., which is confirmed on the main site by those like Exeggutor).

There is the possibility that they're fake, but with how much the latter leak got right and the specific details both got right, I'm more inclined to believe they're legitimate.

Looks like everyone's favorite type combination is coming back exclusively in Pokemon Sun and Moon! :)

I think it's a relevant time to post @Delzethin's video on the leaked starters again:


As he explains in the video, Litten could end up being dark/fire.

I believe it's going to be Fire/Dark as well

But it still has the theme of fighting, which is making me turned off from it

I played some LEGO Lord of the Rings with my sister today. Pretty fun.

Now I just really want Sonic to come out for LEGO Dimensions.

BTW, if there are any Fire Emblem fans here, there's a new translation patch for Tearring Saga in open beta at the moment.

(For those not in the know, Tearring Saga was a PS1 game made by the creator of Fire Emblem after he left Intelligent Systems. It's very similar to FE, and definitely worth checking out.)

It's so similar to FE that Nintendo sued his ass for this and he couldn't make a sequel*

Actually, I think Nintendo lost that one, as he made a sequel called Berwick Saga and today is now making Vestaria Saga. And alongside that, I think he's also making something called Strategy RPGMaker.

...My bad.
Whoops.
Still.
It was similar enough that Nintendo took him to court.

I heard good things about this.

Funnily enough, I've mostly heard about it from bitter FE fans.

It was actually even more similar originally.

http://serenesforest.net/general/emblem-saga/

Kaga wanted the game to be set in the same universe as the other FE games, and even wanted to include characters like Xane from FE1 in the game.

Berwick Saga is actually quite a different beast altogether, with things like a hexagon-based grid system and (IIRC) a completely restructured turn system.
