Shradow Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 So someone mentioned before about Solgaleo and that whole alchemical thing with the lion eating the sun, you guys seen the connections people are making with other alchemical stuff? This one being lead, for the rock-type Iwanko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 I feel like thats reaching a bit since I'm sure for a lot of Pokemon you can get their basic shape to look like a symbol they could be tied too. But who knows, maybe it is intentional. An alchemy theme would be interesting at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 I'm sure for a lot of Pokemon you can get their basic shape to look like a symbol they could be tied too. I'd think that too aside from the fact that, besides Poppolio having to be positioned like that, it fits Rowlet and Litten perfectly without any sort of posing (it's so close to the lines and eyes of Litten's face it's uncanny), and the specific pose of Iwanko is spot on as well while being an actual official image. Plus there's the whole Solgaleo possibility as well, it just seems like too many coincidences to me. Maybe if we keep seeing more of these symbol tie-ins.

And Magearna. And the new cover legends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But who knows, maybe it is intentional. An alchemy theme would be interesting at least.Hard to say it's reaching when like Black said, there's precedence, also the marking on Litten's face is literally the alchemical symbol for sulphur oh also funk europe no word on if NA will get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Sage Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 Revenge for MM3D and the later date! …Although wasn't this an actual pre-order bonus with ORAS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the new cover legends. I'm not saying some of the Pokemon don't have ties. Magearna and Litten are good examples of the ties. It's Poppolio and Iwanko that I'm more suspect on. oh also funk europe no word on if NA will get it Maybe we'll get it? Hopefully? Maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astro Dude Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I just hope there's a bigger roster this time around. Gen 6, though creative, was lacking. Quality over Quantity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I just hope there's a bigger roster this time around. Gen 6, though creative, was lacking. Quality over Quantity. It really isn't if you count Megas as new Pokemon. Functionally, they are since they have increased stats, new abilities, and new designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 We're getting new previews on July 1st; 10 pm Japan time (GMT+9; you can convert this to your own timezones), so that might answer some of your questions, Astro (if we're getting more than 72 general Pokemon, discounting Megas). That, and some more stuff on the 3rd (mostly extended gameplay and new Pokes) Info was posted Thursday/Friday on Serebii, but no one mentioned that. ----I've already pre-ordered Sun; as much as I'd like to get both, obviously money is an issue.

♪ ♪Aria ♪ ♪ Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Well, I'd expect more unique and bizarre Pokemons, some that are quite hard to imagine, and of course new abilities and moves which mix things up a bit.And while Megas have higher stats, they take one precious turn to activate, which could be quite hefty, especially in tourneys.....Can't wait for new Ghost types--Spooky.....

Just wait until July 1st / 3rd for new leaks and stuff. Likely will be some interesting stuff (hopefully some stuff based on the plants/animals that are native to Hawai'i) 2. That only applies for their speed stats; everything else (offensive / defensive stats) gets boosted upon Mega Evolution. Although for some stuff like Mega Garchomp/Heracross, their speed remains at their original form's base before dropping. Or rather, things like Mega Charizards and Eons retain their base speed (which is already pretty good) and aren't bothered. 3. Likely will be a few Ghosts (well, you already know the Moon legendary is part Ghost anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 It'll be interesting to see what will be unveiled come Friday. I'm expecting more gameplay at the very least and probs 2 new pokemon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I expect them to roll out a couple new pokemon every few weeks until the games come out. Past that the major thing they need to do is talk about the new diamond bracelet thingy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Possibly leaked Pokemon. [spoiler=Leaked Pokemon] 1 and 3 looks sweet. 2 and 4 are fine. 5 is O_o. 6 makes me laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tourmaline Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 I mean... The bug types this generation are excellent. That rectangle bug is the hero of Alola. The Pokemon to save all Pokemon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Possibly leaked Pokemon.[spoiler=Leaked Pokemon] 1 looks interesting. Another Dragon/Fairy, perhaps (it kinda looks like one)2 is cute (dk if it's the Alola version of Pikachu, but we'll see)3 looks neat4 is okay5 is weird, but I went to look up native marine life here; it's probably based on the lagoon triggerfish (it looks very similar in design)6 is probably the evolved form of Grubbin, judging from appearance.

We don't have a lot of those tbqh. At least not fully evolved. 2) the cheeks make me think it is. 5) That was my guess. The design looked WAY to specific to not be referencing some native wildlife. 6) That is my guess as well. Curious if any of these will show up tomorrow in the direct. O, we got a 7th one. [spoiler=7th one] Looks neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 In terms of fully evolved pure Dragon, we really only have Goodra and Haxorus (and guess Druddigon despite the fact it has no evolutionary line). Maybe they will show up in Friday's direct, but just gotta wait. (Hopefully the new leaks are worth it, as they'll require me to stay up until 3 am factoring in timezone differences [but shouldn't be a problem]) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 I agree, the 7th one looks promising. Not sure what it's based on though (or whatever native concepts we have). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
