Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

I'd like if it we had a massive blow-out of "Oh look, it's a Fairy-type! Sylveon's a Fairy type, as are these old Pokémon. Also, here's some new Fairy Pokémon!"
Or, whatever the new type is called.

I expect a few more pokemon at least, though I definitely hope we get info about the new type(s) as well, and Sylveon's type is finally freaking revealed, so we can move on to the pointless complaining of the fandom stage, and then on to the grudging acceptance stage sooner.

Well Smash have promised that next's week show will reveal something that will change Pokemon gameplay forever, and they will be doing a section focusing on types (source: Pokejungle) so a new type reveal is looking mighty likely.

And like you say if we get the Fairy reveal now, it gives haters at least 4 months to calm down about it.

I can't WAIT to see if the Nintendo E3 info will be the exact same as CoroCoro, or if it'll just be a taster and CoroCoro will be the main course. Less than 24 hours left until the Direct!!!!

See Arya's face? This is totally my face right now.

Does anyone else have a translation of that? I'd really like to know if that was really said or not.

I think this is officially going to be the week I am forced between the two route options of

1, OMG I know everything before release
and
2, hide avoid forums live in cave must have something to surprise me on release.

Stay away from this board, and you will probably have a few surprises when you get the game.

That's what I am kind of feeling like is that all the new Pokemon revealed in this months issue will be strictly Fairy types so they can show off the new type, while completely ignoring all the non-Fairy types until next months issue or so.

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

As far as I know this CoroCoro is a standard edition regarding Pokemon information. Given that the new type will probably take a bit of space, the movie will get pages. Which means that there are noy many pages for everything else.

I don't see that the new type will taqke all of CoroCoro but a bit part of it will.

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

Realistically they could cover a new type in a single spread. It's not like the magazine will divulge every detail. They'll have a big image of Sylveon, possibly a brand new fairy type unrelated to old pokemon, and like images of the Clefairy line in a corner, under which it will mention a move or two that's being retyped. Some game images debuting a fairy type attack, next to Sylveon and the new pokemon, and then just text everywhere else saying it's weaknesses and strengths. Easily fits within a single spread.

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

XY promotion is all about tid bits. And what huge deal do you have to cover about a type. Which types it's weak to which types it's strong to!? And 2-3 Pokes of that type. That's a simple double page! Nothing more. Eventually if they announce the way Ninfia evolves it could get a bigger spread!

This Coro Coro will feature probably the Region Prof. and maybe the starter town or the prof town depending how they will handle it in game. I assume the adventure starts at Coast part Kalos!

So leaking could already start in 24h ! Can't wait! :D

P.S. On pokejungle so guy/girl said there will be not only the new Fairy type but Echo type aswell. I don't know it's not really believable but let's see!

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

On one hand anything coming out of pj is bull. On the other however echo implies sound and I really would prefer a sound type to a fairy type. What you mention is obviously fake, but damn would a sound type be smashing.

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

The official Japanese website is updating with XY news tomorrow (I imagine, to coincide with the developer round-table). I wonder if that information will then later be in CoroCoro?

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

So E3 will have it first. Yeah, that probably means everything will be talking about the same things. I don't normally condone getting your hopes up, but in this case, it will HAVE to be big.

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

I don't think that E3 will be that much of a big deal. They will reveal information, but not too much information.

Game Freak is very good at keeping things secret until the release, but still reveal tiny bits that builds up the hype for the release. And part of that secrecy is to give way for fake rumors- Like how that one image before B2W2 were released with the eastern half of Unova hidden in ice sparked rumors that the eastern half will be completely frozen? Yeah that.

I just hope that they reveal new information, not just Japanese information released in CoroCoro for English speakers.

It's a behind-closed-doors Q&A with the press, so it's not being live-streamed. It starts at 2am on Wednesday, British Standard Time, so 3am. It will also be an hour and a half long.

Tomorrow? Not for most people outside the US.

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

Now it's just a matter of seeing who will win this race: will coro coro leak first? or will we get the e3 info beforehand?

I. can.'t.wait. to have one of the longest Pokémon arguments (Silveon's type) put to rest.

Re: Official CoroCoro Discussion Thread

Does anyone know if the PokeJungle translation is accurate?

If it is, it's probably a new type, obviously and it'll be revealed in CoroCoro, obviously.

Another thing that people seem to be ignoring is the possibility that perhaps there's no new type--maybe they're just redoing how typing works. And perhaps Sylveon, instead of being that type, is the "poster child" for this new typing mechanism. If this were the case, I would not be surprised (in fact, I would expect) the legendaries to have it, too.

There was something to that effect in one of the rumors a month back, but I can't remember how credible it was....
