Rumours/Fakes/Leaks Discussion Thread (V2)

[lavandula]

I implore you to do another debunk video for the fossil park fake because it's literally everywhere and people don't even stop to look at all the reasons why it's fake

I'm still thinking of a way to explain it in English.
But I don't think I can explain properly.

What language do you usually use? Can always help for English

If that is the case, we should be getting an announcement for a trailer either today, tomorrow, or sunday.

Or monday if they really want to wait that much longer for some reason. I'm really hyped because they may reveal other stuff in this trailer (like more about the story, new alolan forms, etc.) that could prove "leaks" wrong, or give some more validity.

Monday/Tuesday tends to be a more common time for new announcement videos. But anything is possible.

They could throw a huge curveball and let the anime make the initial reveal with a proper video afterwards.

Well,the only thing that we can hope for is something at Pokenchi this sunday :v

The problem with Anime revealing is dub isn't even close

 

[Rosalia R]

Please, let's not talk about Pokenchi. Not after last year's fiasco.

(I don't think getting info then is completely impossible, but it's super unlikely. Also Ohmori apparently isn't even in the preview for the Pokenchi ep, whatever that means.)

He really isn't, I saw it and it was all about pikachus.. it just means he's probably just some flavor guest there

That didn't stop Origins with Mega Charizard X, though that wasn't the main series and was a lot closer to XY's release than we are to USM's release right now.

I do think a trailer around Tuesday or so is way more likely, but there's a slight chance the anime will break precedent, especially since there's a chance of Corocoro leaks spoiling it around the same time as the episode might premiere.

Time to learn Japanese

What if they literally don't reveal anything until release?

In contrast with what they did in SM where they revealed literally everything, save for like 5 Pokemon, 4 Alolan forms, and 3 Ultra Beasts.

Couldn't even keep goddamn Marshadow a secret long enough.

 

[Nicolas721]

Fake-makers always forget that Corocoro never shows silouettes outside the cover...

The news have to be dropped in Monday or Thursday, or else they would be running the risk of Corocoro revealing the news. Of course, Corocoro won in October 2016, and there's the possibility of it don't having news.

You do realize that'd be bad for promoting the games, right? They need to release info to get people to want to buy/preorder the games.

Couldn't even keep goddamn Marshadow a secret long enough.

And they couldn't keep the Mythicals a secret likely since the beginning of the franchise, so I'm confused why you're saying this. Marshadow being known is no different than us having known Arceus, Genesect, Deoxys, or Volcanion for a few years.

You didn't quite understand what I meant, but ohkay.

That wouldn't matter at all--it's never stopped them before. Like I said, if the anime did the initial reveal, they would internationally release an announcement video afterwards. New Pokemon have been revealed by the anime from time to time since the 90's, and Japan has obviously always gotten those weeks/months ahead. So that's a non-issue.

That didn't stop Origins with Mega Charizard X, though that wasn't the main series and was a lot closer to XY's release than we are to USM's release right now.

Didn't stop Ho-Oh, Togepi, and others.

PokeJungle moaning about getting lots of messages about the Lillie leak.
I feel sorry for him.
It's like 4am in Japan now (where PokeJungle lives)

I'm more impressed that PJ didn't post it for clicks. Did he get standards or something?

 

[jeisu]

Also I don't believe any corocoro leak that doesn't occur between the 9-15th of the month.

 

[TheMonster6893]

This month we may get CoroCoro as early as the 8th. In August CoroCoro comes out on the 12th due to a Japanese holiday. So this time it will come early, but it's unlikely we'll get anything before the 8th. It's possible maybe the 7th, but that's stretching it.

Yes I agree with DoctorWhy let's assume the anime does indeed reveal new Lycanroc form that's never been seen before.

I highly DOUBT there won't be some kind of announcement video or some kind of game announcement, or some kind of official website update revealing information, even Coro-Coro might have something.

They did spoil Ash was going to get an Ash-Greninja, so a new form Lycanroc isn't impossible.

Fake-makers always forget that Corocoro never shows silouettes outside the cover...

I'm not doubting there being a fake because honestly the only rumor/hoax I would believe right now would be ENTIRELY about new form Lycanroc and images of it (and no I don't mean the diamond mane/golden claws one either which was obviously fake), but I could've swore there was a CoroCoro that did in fact have a silhouette on the the cover. Maybe not recently, might have been around 5th generation, maybe even 4th.

But I vaguely remembering a silhouette on the cover of a Pokemon that was revealed in the actual issue.

It's possible I'm mixing memories of actual silhouettes of Pokemon that we've seen, but I'm certain I remember something like that being on the cover of CoroCoro.
