Why the hell am I not grinding up my team in Alpha Sapphire? Because I'm waiting for the scans to pop up. Ugh.
Is this normal?

So, there have been previews of SM and Gamexplain posted a video on their thoughts
But the most important thing is that we finally have the new Pokemon Center design and

It's beautiful, it really looks like an expansion from previous games unlike XY which seemed to just make it 3D
There's even a coffee shop and the PokeMart looks so pretty

They did a really great job, I was getting tired of the standard pokemon center.

It seems rather comforting to me, it reminds me of some nice hotel lounges I've been to. In fact it makes me want to revisit Mammoth Mountain again for my birthday, which is after this game comes out. :p

It looks pretty nice, although the main booth looks a little out of place imo.

I wonder if it's centered though and if there is anything else behind it. It kind of looks like that to me....

This is definitely more aesthetically pleasing than the last two generations of Pokemon Centers and Pokemarts forcefully rammed together.

I think one of my main issues was that it didn't feel like the two were really combined in a way that felt like it. . .belonged, and while this isn't quite what I imagined the perfect combination to be, the overall feel works much better than before in that it seems something along the lines of an actual place you'd visit on a vacation. Visitor center, rest stop, hotel lobby, etc. Just replace the help/receptionist's desk with the healing station and that's the general image it gives.

Y'know

Out of context this looks like really terrible clickbait.

But Gamexplain's thumbnails are awesome.

Remember when they've had a fat Snorlax for the Pokémon GO McDonald's collaboration (which should have been an international thing)?

I just woke up so I dunno how late I am to the Alolan Grimer reveal. But here's my thoughts.

Poison/Dark? Ho-o-ly **** that's an awesome typing. Would of preferred it on Arbok, but so be it. Anyways, the reason why its a good typing is because it only has one weakness, being Ground, and depending on how bulky Alolan Grimer is, just slap an Air Balloon on it.

Again, this is ANOTHER direct upgrade versus the original. Lol seriously GF

I love Alolan Grimer's colouring.

Dark and Yellow is the most common natural pattern that screams "This animal is poisonous." Maybe the backstory goes that Alolan grimer evolved its poison naturally, as opposed to born from industrial sludge.

Changed my icon to reflect my feelings on the fact it's been 9 HOURS since the first scan popped up and we still don't have the rest of the scans. Sorry if I come off as an impatient, immature child but I am not a patient person.

I'll change back once we get the rest of the scans.

Ever heard of this guy? He made the 'Porygon HD, Bounsalty, I main every character' joke leaks and more. After his recent tweets, I have good enough reason to believe the scan is fake.
All the screenshots of gameplay were in trailers
Refusing to show more than one page despite claiming to have more exciting news that you'd take a pic of
Type Nina evolves according to this, right? But...That contradicts the last issue of CoroCoro, "Type Nina's TRUE power"

Serebii put the Grimer scan on the main page and mentioned Jangmo-o's and Type: Null's evos, if SEREBII thinks it's credible, it's mostly likely:

They... have always been? Unless you mean ORAS in which case it wasn't an intentional design choice
I know, but hasn't Merrick been fooled before?
No, afaik

There were only two times I remember Serebii being incorrect. Funnily enough, both happened during BW.

One was them listing Alomomola as a Luvdisc evolution during pre-release (to be fair, a reasonable assumption), and the other was including a fake leaked Grass Pokémon among the lineup from a blurry screenshot, seen here.

BW was probably the weirdest pre-release
I still remember someone trying to disprove the final starter evos by saying he made them and designed them after other Pokemon(such as Emboar coming from Rhyperior)
I don't remember that pic though, but I'd probably have believed it if I had seen it

I still don't see no Griffins :glare:

But in all honesty we just need to be patient...Remember Pyukumuku was first leaked from corocoro a day after the same Corocoro was initially leaked...so we may see the scans within the day at least...But I am honestly curious what Jangmo-o's evolutions will look like...

So what's the story behind Grimer's Alolan variant going to be?
Also the design isn't too different from a normal Grimer. Guess there's only so much you can change with a pile of sludge.
There's a lot they could have done. In fact here's my interpretation:
Alolan Grimer and Muk.png


Type: Water Poison

Story:
When brought to the Alola region, Grimmer and Muk slowly began to change. The fresh air, and lack of burning of fossil fuels cause a change in their appearance and gene structure. The two, began to be cleansed of their toxic sludge, however a problem arose.

Something went wrong with their genetics and they began to react badly to the purification. Parts of their sludge slightly remained, and the core began to change. Grimer slowly became corrupted and parts of it body began oozing a strange yellow substance. To protect the environment, the people of Alola pushed back the creatures into caves. This way they wouldn't be able to cause as much damage. Wild Pokemon adapted to this and learned to coexist with them.

In order to see in the darkness of caves, the grimer's eyes somehow changed to a bright red and they were able to light up the darkness. They live in peace in caves and are said to still be playful unless made angry.

Researchers theorize that perhaps if their bond with a trainer is strong enough, they can overcome the corruption and live in a stable manner for the rest of their days.

This look so good now! Everything is ordered nicely and really well designed!

This leakers kind of scummy.

He was like "Fine, have some pity, take a page. You'll get the rest when I feel like it." Don't see why he couldn't have leaked it all at once.

There's been a few others, such as ilulmious being a ledbya evolution, or shellos evolves into lapras, but those were very minor, a bigger one was when he fell for this convincing fake during the BW era:


To note, Type: Null Corocoro news WAS confirmed by the company weeks back so odds are this is real.
Yes, but knowing that, the guy could make up info that seems convincing. Don't see wht he would though, but it's also strange to not post the other pages.

If he was the kind of guy to make up ****, then Joe wouldn't be working with him.

Technical/human difficulty. Calling it. We've had late Corocoro news before.
