the best part about theory is how we're never going to hear the end of it. (:

it's not.

i think with Gladion having a battle intro like Hala and Hau (and unlike literally almost everyone else), i think it's pretty likely that he'll use the Silvadi that's strong to your starter.

Ilima was also revealed in CoroCoro. you can't see whether or not they have that clover symbol because it's only chest-up art (#rip). maybe we'll get the full art tomorrow?

four out of the eleven revealed are Dark, the same number as Ice. if you want to add A-Muk and A-Persian, it's six of thirteen. of course, then that could just be the last of the Dark-types.

Cubone is a Pokemon that wears its dead mother's skull.... but it's also born with it... and said dead mother's skull also doesn't match up with its evolution's skull. it's Pokemon, not science. (see also: Remoraid and Octillery, Clamperl family, Durant evolves to have steel armor to counter...

which are made up of the individual stats......

that's irrelevant. fact of the matter is that flavor texts have consistently exaggerated the actual strength (re: BSTs) of a Pokemon.

because flavor text? after all, Arcanine is supposed to be faster than Dodrio based on its flavor text and yet Dodrio has higher Speed.

that's a weird comparison since without its hindering ability Slaking would be comparable to a fair few legendaries and mythicals, but with its ability it's incredibly weak (or at least incredibly manageable because of predictability stemming from its ability).

not really. it was just lost on Western readers that 'southern islands' in Japanese would refer to tropical islands and not mysterious, unseen bits of Alola.

those scans are up on Serebii's forums and it's mostly a regurgitation of what we know. Joe also explained that the context of "Southern Islands" typically refers to tropical islands (ie., Alola as a whole).

no but then what would Game Freak have left to say no second region, let alone no distant second regions?

i mean every other region seems to have fairly large boats and that's never allowed us to go anywhere else, so i really doubt that Game Freak would go with boats.

It's not that they've spoiled that she's important– arguably by being a non-generic NPC she'd not be unimportant– it's that from the get go they spoiled that she's Not Your Average Girl. Hell, the fact that they immediately said she was mysterious is why there is any sort of discussion on Lillie...

they're just bosses. if the Chinese leak is real-- plus the stuff about the Island Challenge-- it's not like there won't be any gym leader equivalents.

It has yet to appear in a 'serious' video game setting yet. Tretta, Shuffle, and Picross are all spinoffs where its appearances can be attributed to the fact that Greninja (and/or Ash-Greninja specifically) is popular. The TCG is interesting, however it doesn't have a direct match to the games...

it's not even the internet's fault (lol); it's just the fact that the games are being released worldwide and thus there is no reason to run multiple and separate media campaigns. that's why most non-TPCi and non-international channels have been pretty mum compared to previous generations.

because CoroCoro is less an 'entertainment' magazine and more of a monthly release of certain franchises' mangas, such as Yokai Watch, Pokemon, and Duel Masters, for example.

i doubt that. CoroCoro has been (reliably) leaking for ages. if anything it'd be a realization that the internet is so easily accessed now they don't really need a magazine to proliferate the news.
