Leak Repository Thread (WARNING: Huge spoilers!)

...doubt it, since they already rejected a pokemon based on Dolly a long long time ago-

Keyphrase: Long long time ago. It was only controversial during that year and it's been decades since so.

The appeal of not knowing all the Pokemon going into the game, kinda reminds me of my first time playing a Pokemon(X) and honestly that's amazing.

...Dolly is still very much controversial, it just isn't often talked about.

This is one of the fakest leaks I've ever seen.

Because it wasn't meant to be a "leak"

You know, after looking at it more closely it's quite obvious it's meant to be a joke.

It's okay, I take things too seriously all the time! It happens to the best of us.

Still, I doubt there's much that can spark up controversy with Wooloo, it can become a literal clone and be able to clone itself.

And they just decided not to allude to that anywhere except for Germany?

While I agree that there might not be a lot of controversy--after all, there already is a (sort of) clone Pokemon, Mewtwo--however I figure a Pokemon inspired by Dolly would be more science-y, something to suggest its cloned nature, and wouldn't appear as a common early-route Pokemon.

Considering how Porygon and Kadabra have been treated after their respective incidents, I doubt they're going to suddenly embrace a concept that they labeled as too controversial before it even got out of the gate.

Kadabra had an incident?

Some psychic accused GameFreak of using his likeness in Kadabra's design without his permission.

oh yeah, now i remember, i thought it was something in the anime for some reason.

Thanks to that guy (whose name is Uri Geller, by the way), Kadabra will not be in the TCG again anytime soon. In fact, the last time he was in a card was in 2003. He might be as far as I know the TCG equivalent to Porygon.

that guy looks nothing like kadabra, so he just robbed the tcg of a perfectly fine pokemon.

It was for using his name as a base for Kadabra's Japanese name. Also, something about Nazi imagery in Kadabra. Good thing he lost that lawsuit.

Kadabra hasn't been in the anime since 2005 either, so it's actually gotten it from both ends.

In addition, and possibly related to this, Kadabra holding an everstone will still evolve when traded, ever since Gen 4.

That's depressing. And from the mangas side, it managed to outlive the rest before disappearing in 2011.

^^ I am very much wondering now whether this discussion has turned into predicting one of two possible situations for Sword/Shield!!

The first is that the Abra line might not be in the Galar dex?? They did just appear in Let's Go, as well as it being in Pokemon GO, but if they are wanting to exclude it this is really their first opportunity to do so.

** Now I have checked the Serebii,net list of which Pokemon have been seen, the Abra line has not been seen yet..!!

The second is, perhaps there will be two totally new Galarian evolutions for Abra??

Um... neither of those two topics have appeared in the current discussion.

At any rate, I think there's a low chance that the Abra line won't be in Galar. Not only is the line a counterpart to Machop's line, which got in, it is also a relatively popular line of Kanto 'mons. As for whether or not Abra will get Galarian evolutions, I think it's more likely that it will get a Galarian form instead of new two evos.
