Official Pre-Pokémon Sword & Pokémon Shield Speculation & Leaks thread

[Fluttershy of Light]

Going to have to step in and remind everyone to keep things civil when discussing about potential leaks regardless of their current status. Leaks aren't worth the time to get heated about.

So there's been way too much fighting back and forth in this this thread lately, despite an in-thread that was done a few days ago. Because it hasn't stopped yet, we'll be locking this thread for 4 hours to give folks a chance to step back and cool off.

When the thread goes back up, we'd like the "UK as a region" subject to be dropped. It's been done to death at this point and it's just causing arguments and bitterness right now.

Recently there's been quite the controversy when it comes to "Is the next Pokémon region going to be inspired by the UK?"
Yesterday you guys were asked by TeaWest to drop the topic for now and let it rest for a while, before bringing it back up again, as it's currently too touchy of a subject.

I'll request it once more, drop the UK theory for now. If in a couple of days you find some new evidence regarding the UK theory, please PM a VG Mod before posting about it, and they'll let you know if it's fine to talk about or not.

We do not wish to silence a topic here, as the whole point of this thread is to have fun seeing what other people believe the next game is going to feature. However if a certain topic stops us from being civil and only derailing the discussion, we'll have to step in.

Oh, and one last thing. This thread is about speculations, bullying from a month ago doesn't help towards the discussion either and only causes drama. So try to keep things on-topic.

As always, if you guys got any questions or remarks, just send me a PM and I'm willing to discuss it. But don't derail the thread with it, thanks.

Hello everyone,

After reviewing PkmntrainerV's suggestion, the staff have come to a conclusion that if you're posting a video, we recommend summarizing its contents for people with slower connections and for convenience. Additionally, everyone is free to ask for a brief summary to filter out clickbait and get to the point. Thanks in advance!

Just a heads up everyone. While joking about leaks is perfectly fine (and encouraged!), please make sure you're contributing and not just asking for likes. They don't really add much to the topic at hand or bringing up a new point. In other words, it's off-topic and irrelevant to the thread. Thanks.

Today was a quiet day.

A bit too early for Pokémon day
