I would just like to point out that according to Serebii, Detective Pikachu is apart of Gen VI.

Maybe Z-Forms on the 4th? If so, then that would help with leaks.
Why will we get Z-forms when we already got Alola forms? Doesn't Sun and Moon have enough already?

That would make sense. The way I figure the 7th gen technically hasn't gotten here yet until Sun and Moon are actually released. Plus I wouldn't know for sure, but as far as I know Detective Pikachu doesn't even have any new pokemon cameos or anything does it?

Okay, I was busy copy-pasting that humongous leak here last time, so here are my thoughts on it

Gen 8 info is mostly fake. Because after SM there will most probably be a remake of an old gen and then only will they introduce a next gen. So if there are any early plans, they are mostly for a remake.

Starter evo drawings, Salandit evo MAY BE genuine. Only time will tell.

So many Alolan Formes and 20 new Megas - FAKE. He also said there will be megas of gen6 and this gen's starters which is very hard to believe. There may be new megas but I expect just 8-10 not much.

Alolan Clefable and Wigglytuff is hard to believe as well.

Jangmo-o final evo typing and stuff? No idea, only time will tell. It may be Dragon/Steel or Dragon/Fighting, I am hoping for the latter.

Lastly, this leak seems way too farfetched with Riddler's consistency who apparently is the real genuine leaker.
So I am going to call this leak FAKE.
It was nice and entertaining to say the least. Props to the leaker who made so much effort in making this.

Because the Chinese leak, which is very credible so far, says: "Logo diamonds cause Pokemon to transform shape, like Ash-Greninja."

That would make sense. The way I figure the 7th gen technically hasn't gotten here yet until Sun and Moon are actually released. Plus I wouldn't know for sure, but as far as I know Detective Pikachu doesn't even have any new pokemon cameos or anything does it?
Not a single one. But:
There will be a second Detective Pikachu due to the first one ending with: "To be continued". So I am assuming that this second one will be apart of Gen VII.

A platypus Pokemon? *Pokemon puts on a hat* PERRY the platypus Pokemon?!

Well, strictly speaking, Psyduck is a platypus. :D

Yeah but Serebii's not an official source

Maybe Z-Forms on the 4th? If so, then that would help with leaks.

Oh man do I wish. I keep expecting Z-Forms, because they're obviously coming (Chinese leak mention), but they keep not coming! It's maddening. :p

There are a few things that could be revealed, not necessarily on the 4th but maybe sometime next month, there's always around 2-3 news reveals in a month, so we can at least foresee 4-5 more news reveals between October 4th until November 18th unless we get a Surprise news of sorts

Ummmm? Did this come from the riddler? (I have trouble on the forum being on mobile, so I can't really find latest post, but it this was posted from 4chan, I don't know if they got it from a post from the riddler)

An owl, a raccoon and wrestling. I am guessing it has something to do with the starters. Maybe their other forms?

No such image on the riddler's latest page (17).

Anyway, I think that one is clearly pointed towards the starter's evos.

Only 2 of them seem to be the final forms of the starters. The owl with an arrow in it's wing, and wrestling. But the ferret thief, I don't know.

What if it is implying that Popplio is going to evolve into Water/Fighting?

If any leaker speaks of gen 8: *puts tape over their mouths* Shhhh. No one's gotten to play 7 yet lets not get ahead of our happy little selves, yeah?

And I dunno what is supposed to be in that middle picture, but I want whatever is in that middle picture. Look how cute it is! I want a pokmon that's basically that! :p

ALSO I WANT MY HEEL WRESTLING CAT TO SUPLEX SOMEONE.

So it might just be some Riddler copycat. At this point someone is actually copying the format to make their own leaks! That's pretty funny.

All I can say for now is I love the wrestling picture and lil thieving Raccoon. The guy in red looks way too calm, and the raccoon is so adorable!!

Actually thinking about it maybe the wrestling pic could be about a day Beltiger (or w/e). Most people already think it will be dark type because the text on the concept art and some parts of the art itself make it out to be a heel, so a more goody goody "face" wrestler would be a sensible alternative, or maybe even a version that is inspired more so by traditional wrestling instead of flashier dramatic entertainment wrestling.

The first picture seems to be a psychic owl due to the third eye on its head. So maybe Grass/Psychic?

The second seems to imply theft which could mean Dark-type and thus Fire/Dark. Which means that Litten3 is apart of, I am presuming, Moon's forms.

The third seems to be a blue wrestler which could be Water/Fighting.

This would all lead to Popplio3 and Rowlet3 being Sun's forms with Litten's Sun form still missing.

I believe that Gen 7 will go like this:
2016 - Sun and Moon
2017 - Nothing (Maybe finally a Gen 7 spin-off, haven't heard or seen anything yet)
2018 - Gen 8 for the NX(Yes, I know this will make Gen 7 very short. But Gen 7 seems just like a celebration of Pokemon's, anime and games, 20th anniversary.)

But if one team is working on Gen 8, is another team working on Gen 4 remake(s)? The NX is launching in March 2017, and if the rumor about it being a hybrid is true, then Nintendo doesn't want another situation like BW.

I think it's DP remakes on NX. It'll be a first on GF's part on releasing cross gen platform, but knowing how they're trying to break the pattern, I think it's plausible. DP was on DS, though the 1st gen DS, so I don't think it's a good idea.

2017 can have third version, since they can run same engine of sun and moon with additional improvements.. And this will be their final work on DS.

By the looks of it, we had..
Gen 1: GB
Gen 2: GBC
Gen 3, gen 1 remake: GBA
Gen 4 & 5, gen 3 remake: DS
Gen 6&7: 3DS

I'm calling the leak fake simply because:

Come on:p If this is real I'm not touching Pyukumuku with a ten foot pole.

But I'll add the leak to the OP anyway, because at least they tried to do more than just make a wishlist.
