Leak Repository Thread (WARNING: Huge spoilers!)

[RileyXY1]

Are we still discussing that leak with galarian chatot and the water zacian?

It was proven fake because that time passed with no trailer.

What about Koffing? Do you people know if Koffing will get a galarian form, or it is a regular (kanto) Koffing evolving into Galarian Weezing?

If i recall correctly, we have seen regular Koffing in a trailer (We didn't saw Weezing yet though). So Galarian Koffing is out (It is a Cubone-Marowak situation).

 

[AngryBinacle]

I honestly don't think we'll have anymore leaks, except for when a hypothetical demo drop will happen before release. Which I doubt.

 

[swiftgallade46]

Gigantamax? What?

Are you referring to Dynamaxed Steelix?????

Obviously lol

 

[yudgefudge]

Obviously lol

oh lol

 

[ShieldFan]

Steelix already got a Mega Evolution, so I think it will not get a galarian form.

I don’t think u read the preceding conversation correctly lol

That doesn't matter because they removed Megas.

I did. I only wrote a personal thought. I know that Steelix did appear on dinamax form.

 

[ShieldFan]

Yep. What I mean is that I'm expecting more galarian forms for forgotten pokémon like Farfetch. Since Steelix already got a mega evo, I'm not expecting more new forms for Steelix. I don't know if you get my point.

Has this been explicitly stated or are we just surmising from current information available on Dynamax and Gigantamax?

 

[badwolf1234]

Apparently there is no Elite 4 in Galar?

Its not officially confirmed theres no elite 4 but yes it is heavily hinted at

It seems this time around you participate in the championship cup made up of x amount of trainers. Including your 3 rivals then the winner faces leon.

Thats my take on it

Explicitly stated.

Pretty sure we've already had that idea for a while, because of the site mentioning a Champion's cup.

And with what just happened in the anime. People have assumptions on what that means for the game. As far as the elite four type goes. Which is confusing anyway because the elite four does not exist in the anime. Still people are making comments.

 

[ShinyOotachi]

Explicitly stated.

Would you mind showing me where? It's something I've been wondering about for a while (as a Fakemon creator) but don't recall ever seeing it anywhere on the official site or in trailers.

I always assumed that Megas would just be relegated to the post-game again. I didn't think they had been done away.

Them removing Mega's isn't the issue giving a Pokemon that can Mega a Galarian Form, the issue is that they need to give both the regular and the Galarian Form a Mega evolution if they ever revisit it again, which is a bit redundant if its the same Pokemon, but only the typing is different.

It was in a Famitsu interview with Masuda. (Advertising what isn't in the game probably isn't what they want to use trailers and the site for)

They could always keep the Galar form out if they brought Megas back.

They don't have to give a mega evolution to a galar form any more than they had to give an evolution to regular Linoone. One form will simply go without.
