Dex leak confirmed fake.
. . .What.

Well it's not retreading, anyway. I can definitely give it that!

A living sandcastle and a hive mind school of fish. . .they both fit the region but I certainly didn't see that coming.

Also calling it: Team Rocket goes to Alola, Meowth falls for Girly Blue Meowth.

*checks Serebii*

Oh, the swarm is just a form change? I. . .may consider this one depending on what other Pokemon there are and my mood when playing. The baby fish is adorable and the swarm is outright insane and probably has incredible animations.

Alolan Marowak tho. I hope it learns Shadow Sneak for STAB priority lol

Sandcastle Pokémon becomes Ghost-type when hit by Water-type moves.

lol The antagonist team is called Team Skull.

Their designs are nice though.
Team Skull. Huh. Hopefully they're interesting in some way. I felt each Team had some that made them stand out in general, whether it was character designs(remakes or originals), personality, or their goal.

Team Flare is one of my favorites just for their silly flair~

I hope Alolan Marowak is still a Physical attacker.
Because if it's a special attacker, it's gonna outclass Chandelure due to the Thick Club item

LOL really?

OK that explains the Ghost type. Your sandcastle disappears like a ghost when the water washes it away! That's beautiful. XD

Wait.

Wait wait wait.

Team Skull?

I'm guessing their signature Pokemon are Zubat, Koffing, and Skuntank, then?

Not digging the sandcastle Pokemon, though what it does to Pikachu there is terrifying. Ghost/Ground is an interesting type combination though.

I have no idea how the fish works...

Alolan Meowth looks great. Alolan Marowak is basically how I envisioned it. I still want to see other Gens get Alola forms.

Team Skull look interesting. How do they fit into the Alchemy theme the legendaries have?

I like Meowth but I gotta say that the Alolan form is kinda... there?

Maybe Persian will have some more flair.

I like the sass tho.

Okay for real.

I'm hoping that the EXP Share from XY and ORAS come back.

In XY I didn't get it, so I only raised six for my in game team.

By ORAS, I got it and had an in game team of about twenty that I had on rotation. Rotation was much more fun. you feel like you get more out of the experience.

There are a lot of new Pokemon I want to try as well as older ones I want to revisit. Stuff is gonna be good.

Hmm... that Marowak looks super boring.
It would look cooler without eyes and with some ghostly yellow floating pupils inside the skull (like Dry Bones), IMO.

Yeah, it's the typing that's exciting me more than how it looks

Yes! Alolan Meowth is something I was hoping for!

Marowak looks cool, too. Sandcastle and mini-Bewear are okay.

EDIT: The fishes are... interesting. I don't know which water type to pick on my team yet, but that is one possibility.

Team Skull? I guess they forgot they already used that name.

The Pokédex leak is dead, huh? Thank goodness.

I really like the new fish pokémon line. And Alolan Marowak looks cool.

CoroCoro leaks already out? Sweet, I'll give my thoughts.

Those sand castle Pokemon look pretty odd. Apparently, the latter is the result of a spirit that possessed the sand. Sounds pretty dark how it "absorbs the Pokemon's energy by sucking them into the sand." Sounds like a pretty grizzly death. With these set of Pokemon, the Golurk evolution line has lost its unique typing.

Yowashi is pretty cool considering Pokemon has finally pulled off the "fish colony" aspect perfectly. I thought the larger-looking fish was its evolution at first, but it turns out it's just a different form. Still willing to bet the fish colony will gain better stats since it comprises of multiple Pokemon.

I like Bewear's pre-evolution more than its evolution. It doesn't seem to look as lazily-designed as Bewear, but I guess that's just me.

Not surprised Meowth got an Alola form, and its typing is not surprising either. It looks pretty cool though, and I can't wait to see Alola Persian. Alola Marowak being part Fire didn't surprise me because one of the Trial Captains is mentioned to have a Marowak, though the Ghost-typing is pretty interesting (and the Chandelure line loses its unique typing). I really like the design too.

So the villains are named Team Skull, and they are a team of punks? I actually like this. We're yet to have an evil team inspired from punks prior to this, and now we finally have such. I'm surprised they would already reveal the team's leader though. That's usually something that isn't revealed until the month the games are released or a month after that date. Anyway, Guzuma and Purumeri looks pretty cool. I'm betting the latter is one of the team's admins/commanders. I can't wait to hear what their goal is. They don't look like a team that would encourage tourism in the region, but you may never know.

Also, I can't wait to see Rockruff's evolution next month.

The funny thing is, they could have cover their bases by giving Bewear a prevo

Why give Salandit and Wimpod a prevo but not Bewear?

You're not alone. That's what also came to my mind when I first saw Guzuma.

Sandcastle ftw. Definitely going to be a contender for my main team. I'm loving the school of fish Pokemon too. The new Alolan Meowth and Marowak dont interest me as much. Much rather get Vulpix or Sandshrew.

Anyone else thinks the ghost Marowak is a reference to the Pokémon Tower from Gen I games?

Dark-type Meowth and Ghost/Fire-type Marowak seem interesting.

That sandcastle Pokémon also looks neat.

And that 100 Pokémon leak is dead. :chuckle:

Bewear's pre-evo is somehow stupider than Bewear itself, it's incredible how it's the only Pokemon from this Gen I absolutely hate
The fish thing is weird, but a neat concept, I'm sure it'll look pretty cool with its 3D model animated
Yo, is that a sandcastle Pokemon? I already love him. Rip in pokeball Pikachu
Mewoth looks ok, that's all. But Marowak tho, Fire/Ghost even, he looks hype
And it seems we can never escape the evil teams, no matter how much pf the formula has changed

Team Skull doesn't look like the type to wrangle a legendary Pokemon but then again, Team Flare looked more like staffers for a fashion mag than genocidal maniacs.

I really hope that Team Skull's grunts aren't going to be complete morons like other teams' grunts. I don't know if some people find their incompetence funny, but imo the joke grew old a long time ago.

WHY THE FLIPPING ****ING DOO DAA IS GOING ON?!?!

WHO IS THAT? PSYCHICS?

MUTANTS?

EVIL PEOPLE?

SAKI IS A MONSTER NOW?!?!

JAPAN IS GONE?!?


THIS IS ONLY THE FIRST LEVEL!

WHAT IS HAPPENING?!?!



Also, why is Saki the main character when he "dies" in the first level?

OK so...
I have a important question about FE Conquest.
You see, right now, I am like on Chapter 23. However, since I know what will happen next. I fear that not all of my unit would be able to fight.
So, since there is no normal level grinding in Conquest. I thinked to buy the Boo Map DLC.
However, second problem: the enemy stack up the more advenced in the game you are.
So, I would like to know if I should buy it at this point of the game. Or just advence in the game normally and just hope I don't screw up.
Thanks for any feedback you can provid.

I'm thinking Grass.

Ground < Grass
Fire > Grass

But I can't be too sure... cos it's still weak to water. And now weak to 5 types rather than 3. But still! I wonder if Thick Club will still work - physically offensive Fire/Ghost?

Anyway, I love the Sandcastle Pokemon. Ground and Ghost are my two fave types, and I think I like this guy better than Golurk.
