Pokemon based off of food is a huge turn off to the game...

Re: Rumour Discussion and Speculation

I'm not against food based Pokemon since a monster can be anything and the series is called Pocket Monsters rather than Pocket Animals.

/my 2 cents :p

Re: Rumour Discussion and Speculation

A bag of chips? Really? Really?

And why do all these rumors insist on there being a second Eeveelution?

Re: Rumour Discussion and Speculation

Food pokemon are cool as long as they have another basis. Swirlix with its feet looks like a cotton candy covered dog, and the Vanillite line looks like snow covered icicles.

A plain old bag of chips though...that's a bit too much.

The reason people believe that another eeveelution will be announced is because every generation thats introduced new eeveelutions, introduced two, not just one. Also I agree on the chips thing, thats just a terrible idea, and I know that their are pokemon based on ice cream cones, but what I'm imagining is a floating bag of Lays with a face, and its really dumb looking.

If there really is gonna be a bag of chips as a Pokemon, it better get some sort of variation of Razor Leaf called Razor Chip or something.

I don't mind more food-based Pokémon, most of them show how creative the GF staff can be. I do mind more eeveelutions, though, eight of them is way more than enough.

This I agree. I was originally hoping there were not going to be anymore Eeveeutions, until we got Sylveon. A Dragon-type Eeveeution however was something I wouldn't have minded, if only to complete all the Special typings before Fairy's eventual reveal. But even then I still don't want anymore Eeveeutions as we have more than enough now, and all these rumors of a rumored Dragon type is only killing it for me.

Re: Rumour Discussion and Speculation

A sushi Pokemon could work because they could make it a fish or shellfish-creature, so it wouldn't just be "lolfood" since sushi is technically an animal. I saw a picture of one on Deviantart that someone made yesterday, and it was a pretty cool design showing how you could make it work.

As for chips, my idea for it was basically a discarded bag with a creepy hand sticking out...its fingernails, of course, would look like potato chips.

But, I think this Youtube dude is full of it because, well, people who make Youtube videos are dumb. And I don't even think he's lying, rather I'm starting to think whoever did the panel was joking around, this guy didn't pick up on that (because he has no experience in social situations), and thought the panelist was telling the truth who may have played along for laughs.

Re: Rumour Discussion and Speculation

food pokemon sound really bad since the ice cream line but i would love another eeveelution not because there has been two every other generation i want it because i love the eevees
Apparently, according to a favorited YouTuber of mine, dookieshed (who reports on X and Y news every time it's announced), attended a convention where he went to an X and Y panel. Someone at the panel (who he says has very close relations to Nintendo and that he is well-known), leaked some X and Y information that he shared in his video. The man at the panel allowed him to, as long as he didn't mention his name because he could get fired.
There WILL be another Eeveelution, but the type is disclosed as of now. He suspects Dragon.
There will be two more "food" Pokemon. One is based off of a sushi roll and the other is a bag of potato chips.
Now, I'm not one to say I hate a certain Pokemon (except for Luvdisc), but the sushi roll I kind of expected. Before I make fun of the bag of chips, I'd like to see its design. Maybe it'll be a promising Pokemon.
These Pokemon (or, at least the food ones) will be revealed in the next batch of revelations.
What are your thoughts on these...reveals?

This sounds pretty fake to me to be honest. While I could see them making a Pokemon based on a sushi roll, a bag of chips seems a bit much. Though, the big sign that this is fake is the second Eeveelution. I really can't see them introducing another Eeveelution at this point when it would have been included in the Pikachu short like all of the other Eevee evolutions and it would have been revealed right along with Slyveon, or at least shortly afterwards.

they have planned to put another eeveelution in the short but they didnt have time to put in the movie bc in one of the imagines i saw for the short it with all the eevees there was a hole between two of the eeveelutions

While a bag of chips sounds stupid I wouldn't put it past game freak. Not just to do it but potential make it cool in the processes. A lot of Pokemon sound stupid when you talk about them without a picture to go off of.

Re: Rumour Discussion and Speculation

I can't really see a potato chip Pokemon working, and this is coming from someone who counts Swirlex and Vanillite amongst his favorites. Ice Cream and Cotton Candy have . . . well "bodies" isn't quite the world - but a singular mass to work with. Potato chips are a collection of crispy flakes with no adherence.

Re: Rumour Discussion and Speculation

The idea of a Pokémon based on potato chips is weird, but that is because we know nothing about it yet (and we will probably never know, since it is most likely fake). The Vanillite line on both ice cream and icicles and Swirlix is both a dog and a cotton candy, so the said Pokémon could more than just a potato chip thingy.

I have a really hard time believing that they just didn't have time to put it in the movie. Considering how much they've been promoted the entire Eevee evolution line for this short and in merchandise, if there was another Eevee evolution, they would have put in it there. It just seems way too unlikely for another Eevee evolution to be introduced in this generation.

Re: Rumour Discussion and Speculation

How would they not have time to put it in the short? I assume if they already designed one Eeveelution, and had planned to introduce two this generation, it would have already been designed, as well, along with Sylveon.

or they may not have wanted to show it just yet when they made that short it was just a guess

Actually, fan-made evolutions of Swirlix make it seem like it could be a llama.

Really? I don't see llama-like characteristics on Swirlix. I am not against the idea, the less dog-based Pokémon, the better for me.
