Re: Revealed Gen VI Pokemon Discussion/Speculation Thread
So why not announcing it oficially now? remember that the Japanese site has updated too, so there is no reason to say like in previous generations that "it can't be on the English site until it is on the Japanese one", since now both sites update simultaneously. Since today the Japanese site updated today too, they could have done the announcement today, yet they skipped it.
I'm aware of that, but that's my point: every new non-Legendary Pokémon gets its type revealed as soon as the Pokémon is announced. Previosuly, since no other Pokémon apart from the starters and Legendaries was revealed, there was no way of knowing how they would handle new Pokémon reveals for this Generation, so it could be said that Sylveon's type was kept a secret because that's how they would treat all the reveas. But now we got several reveals and Sylveon remains the only one whose type has not been revealed. Why keep it a secret at this point if it wasn't anything special about it? I was not talking about the Pokémon website alone, I was talking in general terms, just using the website as an indicator.
EDIT:
No, and neither has Mewtwo's forme. I was refering to all Pokémon not Leegendary. My bad, I apologize.
Well they can't exactly update Sylveon's type until it is officially announced.

No matter how much evidence and how likely it is Sylveon is a new type, nothing is confirmed, and the Pokemon site isn't going to put up an unconfirmed type. The question marks there isn't really by choice.
