The word "Project" is colored with the colors of eeveelutions and the word "eevee" is colored with the eevee colors obviously. We may even have a new eeveelution coming out of there, but this logo doesn't imply anything sincerely

I mean not really. If you compare the empty charcaters to the Eevee tail and Eevee in the main avatar pic the colors are very different. The empty characters are a lighter brown color that isn't part of Eevee's color pallet. Maybe the last 3 characters on't mean anything, but it's not because they're colored like Eevee.

I literally pointed this out the day that it was posted and no one acknowledged me because everyone wanted to talk about the possible battle change system for 40 fucking pages.

Dragon, Poison and Steel. My guess.

I wasn't aware it's been around this long but glad that we can discuss it now? I can definitely see Dragon and Steel being two, but for the third... not sure if it would be Poison or Ghost.

I updated the OP with the Italian translator leak. There is actually a lot more to the leak that I have seen mentioned around here (after digging through it), so I added that as well.

Also someone tried to edit the OP themselves and add the Italian translator leak.... Not sure which moderator it was :cautious:

Swap Steel with Ground (Ground will give Poison and Jolteon a weakness, while Steel does not).

Congratulations! and nice pic BTW :D
Thanks. Took my long enough, I was going to do it a while ago just never got around to actually doing it. Shedninja is one of my favorites especially with the introduction of Burn Up in generation 7 letting you with a bit of maneuvering create a type less Pokemon with Wonder Guard and Shedninja is a key player in that strategy

Someone on 4chan made a recap of what he said


>According to the translator, the translation team is almost halfway done their scripts with the last bunch of scripts dropping late March with their contracts likely being terminated by the Summer so the translator thinks a March announcement is likely and that a 2018 release is possible
>The region name is Meania and the local food is Kottu which is described as being spicy
>More on the region: The translations take place in a single location of the game the translator refers to as the "Green Area". It is said to be huge and is the only place mentioned in this script (excluding shops and villages). Also the fact that there are 60,000 words that need translation in this part of the game suggests that exploration will be bigger than normal
>The term "Big Island" is also mentioned which could hint at the region. It is unknown if it refers to a single big island (as in the whole region) or the biggest island in a group of islands like Alola
>No game titles are mentioned, the project is just called Pokemon Switch (This isn't really a relevant detail unless the game is literally called Pokemon Switch )
>Within the area they translated, there are 17 (give or take) new Pokemon including the starters and a new Grass Pokemon (more on this below)
>There will be a big fat Grass Pokemon that will be the "meme of the game", and will be given a lot of meme-ish mentions. It is unlikely a regional variant of Snorlax
The starters are described in a very vague sense by some of the NPCs. One mentions that females will have bigger ears, another mentions that you can see the fire in its eyes, and then there is one that people are confused by because they are not sure if they are looking at its real face
>There is a new way to "lengthen the logic of capture them all" (This part was translated) and they mention that it will be like Spinda logic but amplified and not just Spinda. This could mean we will get randomly generated Pokemon variants like Spinda with its patterns.
>Customization is likely to return as it is alluded to in the script
>A new Pokemon will have the move Will-O-Wisp (Possibly the fire starter)
>Silvan is a mysterious jungle boy that will be a recurring character (who will likely have a big role in the game) who follows you around but runs away if you try and interact with him. He is definitely being manipulated/scared by someone evil and although it isn't mentioned in the scripts, he may be related to some experiment relating to Pokemon and Humans
>It looks like they introduced Halfway Stores where you can go to stay well furnished as you follow bigger exploration routes
>There are 3 tutorials mentioned in the script which seem to be "triggers" for mini games which are detailed in other scripts (that they don't have) which means this/these mini game(s) (They never specified it was 3 tutorials for 3 different mini games, or 3 tutorials for 1)
>4 Moves are still mentioned in the game, however the translator believes something definitely will change when it comes to battling. A lot of NPC's mention the "Arena" which is a place where trainers go to fight and a lot of players mention they want to go there because battles are more exciting there. Also there are special items that are said to affect the field when activated. These special items are exclusive to the Arena and cant be assigned to Pokemon. The translator says this whole Arena thing sounds like something fun and new but they have a feeling that it will be like a Battle Royale 2.0
