Leaks and/or Rumours Thread

Chances are we'll see a trailer again next week (monthly pattern). Let's hope it will be a sizable one, as I'm a bit let-down by the marketing-campaign being similar to SwSh's. It barely gave us anything.

At least we now know not to expect more than 1-2 bits of information a month, which will counter the frustration.

Although, in some ways this cycle is worse, by now we knew about Dynamax, the region's name, gym-challenges, the map, etc.

Sighs.

Do we have any idea of when we can expect our next trailer?

Next week has a high chance.

The third trailer for Sword and Shield was released on July 8, so it's very likely we'll have it this coming week.

 

[Scruffyjay]

I would personally guess either a shadow drop tomorrow or something on the 5th/6th.

 

[techitisJ]

Yeah next week is looking likely for the next trailer. If anything has stayed the same between the new generation news cycles I have followed (SM and SwSh), there is usually always a trailer early in the month after that second trailer is out. If it's also like SM and SwSh, this next trailer will be shadow-dropped, likely on the 5th, 6th, or 7th (desperately hoping it's the 5th, as I might be going on a short vacation on the 6th and 7th and I can't analyze trailers from the car without feeling sick lol).

I really hope we get the region name this time around, and a map too. Having a big map to break down in between this month and next month would be great. I'm also super ready to see some new Pokemon and characters.

Ah, forgot tomorrow's Sunday and I don't think they usually drop news on Sundays.


Monday is a holiday in the US, not sure if that matters, probably not.

About the keys with the coinmon teaser, is it possible that two hints tie together? When Khu says key:cells and key:gen 6, couldn't he just be saying you collect cells like Zyguarde,a gen 6 pokemon?

Key riddle and coinmon seem related.

Someone said that Gen 6 may be referring to an X, like X marks the spot on a treasure map. Definitely seems like the key riddle is indicating a collection quest for the coin.

Khu has been quiet the last two days.

This seems very unlikely to be real, but I'll post it anyway. Feel like it would be too easy for Nintendo to find out who was editing the next trailer and black bag them for this. Also, the voice sounds a little off from the usual announcer. That and I think they mispronounce "battle" as "buttle".

"Better shake the video like I just ate 100 bags of sugar to make sure nobody can get a good look at anything"

Also, I know any series can have names with "Neo" in them but I swear Neopolis sounds like a location that was probably in Neopets. I'd agree with others that it sounds a lot more like the name of a city than an entire region though.

 

[Scruffyjay]

neopets nerd voice Neopets is Neopia, but yes it's too close to Neopolis lol

Sooooo did anyone else notice that the video is upside-down and flipped for no reason?

I… never noticed that tbh. I think we were all too focused on the audio at the time.

I noticed, but I figured it was the least weird thing about the video.

If it were somehow real, I could theoretically see it as someone's attempt to make the video harder to trace or something silly.

Trace to what? If it was legit, they'd recognize their own audio and program, whether it's upside down or not.

Pretty sure their aim was just to hide their free video-editing software-

I'm just not giving much credit to anyone who would theoretically be dumb enough to leak of a video recording of them recording the video in edit. Someone dumb enough to do it is probably dumb enough to think that altering the video somehow covers their tracks.

XD Fair.

 

[PinkIceFox]

Oh my god, Oriden. That upside down tweet messed my brain up something fierce! xD

I was like "oh my god what is this text oh god"

Besides, the other video leaks we got before were actual clips with game ratings infront of them. As if they were the unedited footage used for the trailer.
