It's a little past 3:30 AM Friday over there in Japan, so yeah, probably within a few hours or so.

I might miss corocoro this weekend but I'll be back on Sunday. Many possible things that corocoro could have. I am going to go with mascot silhouettes. Seems logical for them to do.

Well, CoroCoro is most likely going to be leaking tomorrow morning, and there's a 50% chance we'll even get anything. Given how recent the announcement was, it's most likely that we will get at least SOME information on the games this month. At best, we'll get the starters or the box legendaries, but at worst we'll just get the logos or nothing at all for Sun/Moon and instead more stuff on Pokken or the Volcanion movie.

From what I am guessing given this month is known for being a dry spell, it will most likely be Movie 19 stuff, since that's almost always what CoroCoro focuses on at this time of year is on the movies and not the main series games, to which nothing is revealed for the games until April/May.

I'm thinking it's going to leak late tonight or early in the morning. If not then sometime this weekend. I think there's a chance we'll get starters more than anything. If that's all we'll get, I'll be content. Then I'll come up with a nickname and try to imagine it's final form's typing and speculate a team around it. Of course, when we get the final list of Pokemon, that speculation will mean nothing.

I would hope that they provide some more information with CoroCoro. I don't mind that we didn't get much with the initial announcement since they only had five minutes, Sun/Moon weren't the main focus and they wanted just have an announcement for the 20th anniversary, which would have had a bit more kick to it if the logos weren't leaked before, so that was all fine for me.

With this issue, I just hope for some good amount of information that we can speculate on. My main hope is for the starters, which might have a decent chance of happening given that we did get the Kalos starters right when X/Y were announced instead of waiting for months. The new box Legendary Pokemon would also be a good possibility, but I'd be happy with just the starters. I just want to find out which Pokemon we can choose from, speculate endlessly on their evolved forms and see fanart of the new starters with the previous sets. I do love how new Pokemon always results in a ton of fanart. There's fanart of the little bird from the trailer and we don't even have the full design for it yet.

Personally, I just want at least a few screenshots of the game, as well as the starters and maybe the player character art. I mean, I don't need too much information like any specific features of the game, just a few screenshots and some Sugimori art to give us an idea of what the game will look like, and that would be enough.

I mean, I think it's time we got SOME news on the games, even if it's just a few screenshots, because this is a new generation of Pokemon, and the first Corocoro leaks of the game should be big, not just an uneventful snippet on a single page that just gives us only the logos just to let people know the games exist at all.

My best prediction is that I still think we're not going to get anything for Sun/Moon at all and it's just going to be Movie 19 information, probably some information on a Volcanion distribution event, and that's probably going to be it until April. However, I would still like at least a page or two of info on the new games.

In XY weren't we given the box legendaries by February? If we don't get at least that then Game Freak would be playing things damn close to the chest. Which would be evil.

We got everything up front with XY but not in BW

Magearna would be our closest analogue to Zoroark, so I'd think we'd get something more substantial. Perhaps we'll get silhouettes, but I think we'll get other details as well.

Can someone give an estimated timestamp of when you expect it to drop? I'm definitely super curious.

These games are releasing in "Holiday 2016" which probably means in December (since IIRC, ORAS were billed as fall 2014, and they were released pretty late, in November). So there are many corocoro isshus (still funny, in case anyone gets this pun) between now and release. XY and ORAS went months after the initial reveal with nothing in CoroCoro. IMHO, people are getting their hopes up way to high--I think we'll get nothing, but I'd love to be proven wrong. I know precedents don't mean anything, but an obvious analogy is with BW. IIRC it was almost the same--a Pokemon revealed (Zoroark/Magearna) then names/logos revealed. If we do get info, I think we'll get a few screenshots.

So as one kind person showed us in the leaks thread, 4chan has what appears to be corocoro leaks showing the box legendaries, starter pokemon and trainers and some screen shots. I won't post them here until it's confirmed but they look damn legit.
