[SPOILERS] X and Y pre-release Leaks and Rumours thread

Wait, does X/Y have the option to set up your own online tournament? Or is it some nintendo organised thing?

A Nintendo thing I think. Though I wouldn't be surprised if it was possible in X and Y.

Not even sure where the word "tournament" came from. maybe it's a lost in translation thing, and they are just going to show a Wi-fi battle (likely)

 Possible new pokemon

EDIT: It's fake.

you can see where the background is photoshopped out.
Sorry [MENTION=6958]Dredragon[/MENTION]!

Would totally use that, nintendo pls

Can't be arsed reformatting this set of rumours. So here's a link:
Possible Spoilers

A lot of things on there are actually already confirmed, including that Rhyhorn is the first rideable pokemon.

The leaker corrected himself on one thing: he meant no Gen 6 pokemon are getting mega-evolutions, not Gen 5. (but we knew this already)

[COLOR="#0000FF"]

Pokemon from all previous generations will be able to be caught in-game, making it easier to complete pokedex without having to trade or use pokemon bank service. Re-emergance of 'Gotta Catch 'Em All" to regain Gen 1 fanbase.

Sounds delicious!

Just the idea of there being so many Pokemon available in each area is simultaneously whetting my appetite and wetting my pants. Having 15 or more Pokemon species per route would really make the region come alive.

Arceus, and then we can figure out how entire ecosystems function... "It appears that Masquerains feed on Weedles, and are in turn preyed upon by Emolgas who ambush from treetops."

I want.

basically this too[/COLOR]

New (potential) pokemon spotted!

 Hawlucha, Fighting/Flying

Looks very convincing. The design, name and inspiration are all very legit sounding. A flying luchadore bird? it's kickass.

Then there is this, which i'm not sure about:

and some rumours related to these leaks:

 Spoiler

Some basic stuff you'll want to know:
>Xerneas is about 715/716 and the Z legendary is two after, so I think there are about 70 new Pokemon total in Kalos
>the final starter leaks are legit. Greninja is ****ing sweet.
>Almost no post-game. You can get the Z legendary, Mewtwo with the stone of your version, the legendary birds roaming around, and I think thats it. Still havent dug through it properly yet. Only played 27 hours or so.
>Surprisingly stiff challenge if you don't abuse the EXP, but the EXP works in a way now that switching in a Pokemon doesnt divide the experience points, and everyone gets the full points regardless of how many folks switch in. EXP Share is one of the first key items you get, and that also gives extra EXP to your party members without taking away from or dividing the original Pokemon's earned experience.
>Final team is Greninja (Froakie final evo), Pyror female (I think that one was revealed?), Aumoros or whatever its name is (rock/ice fossil), Venasaur, Xerneas, and Hawlucha (a hawk luchador fighting/flying type)

hope the challenge part is kinda true so i dont speed though the game..

Please be false...that froakie evo looks gross ._.

Man, I hate the last few weeks before a Pokemon's game release, what with all the attempts to convince people of fake information. I'll never understand that.

Regardless, though, I hope Hawlucha is real (even though that's a dumbass name) because I've always wanted a Flying/Fighting dual-Type, and besides, I really like the idea and concept behind the Pokemon.

However, one of the rumors that came with Hawlucha strikes me as odd. I just can't fathom Nintendo not putting a lot of time into the post-game. This is the first Generation that takes everything into full 3D, supposedly you can catch every Pokemon ever as a way to reconnect with the early Gen fans (if this is true, that is), there are Mega Evolutions, and with all these aspects, how could Nintendo not make the post-game just as good as the main campaign? There is so much they could do. I dunno, I just can't imagine them skimping out like that. It'd piss off so many people.

[COLOR="#0000FF"]This. Also, the froakie evo looks KINDA fake, but honestly can't tell. There has been post game since like plat version (I think, if not then hgss started it), them not including it will be really odd, especially with how much hype this game has gotten.

Hopefully they aren't saving it till the next version, but maybe they didn't have enough time. e.e
I'd rather just believe what they're saying is fake, even though it goes against what people would want with that piece of information which would make you think they're telling the truth + some other valid sounding points...

tl;dr aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa[/COLOR]

"There is only 70 new Pokemon and X and Y has practically no end-game" I refuse to believe any of this. That is pure bullshit. That would mean basically every Pokemon we've seen already + a few legendaries is all the new Pokemon in the game. That's not even enough to fill certain routes with any new pokemon. In which case they should of called this BW3.

Flying is also almost just as blue as Water type in this picture. It should be more like a light purple. So I think that was a mistake by the person who created this image.

Also Greninja's naming pattern is very weird which is another reason I think it's fake. It's supposed to be Frog + rank. Or really anything that transitions well.. this doesn't.
Frog (also a pun with croak) + Rookie = Froakie
Frog + Brigadier = Frogadier
Grenioulle + Ninja = Greninja

It's just a very random change. Grenioulle is french for Frog, and the only thing I can think of that even makes sense for Gren. And I don't think the leaker is playing the french version of the game because attacks and items wouldn't retain their english names. For example if he was playing French then Mystic Water would be Eau Mystique. I also don't see how his design makes much sense. Where did the bubble cloak go? Why is it gone? Why is his tongue suddenly long as pineapple? Where the hell did those paper airplane ears come from? If this is real I am no longer picking Froakie lol.

The same guy also posted pictures of the overworld.

 Spoiler

Like it or not, these images seem legit.

Leh gods! another new pokemon

 Binacle, Water/Rock

It's so uglyyy

I won't lie, I and most of my friends who were planning to get X and Y would be very upset if some of the things listed here are true, esp the 70 only new pokemon and no post game =/

Guess only tme will tell now.

 Binacle, Water/Rock

It's so uglyyy

What in the actual hell is that supposed to be? Honestly can't even tell.

[COLOR="#cc8899"]Oh god Binacle why. That had damned well better evolve into something awesome to be that. pineappleing. ugly.

[MENTION=12938]Pewsks[/MENTION]; It's a barnacle. Bi (two) + Barnacle = Binacle. It's ugly. It's stupid. I don't care if it's resistant, it can go die in a fire.[/COLOR]

I doubt nintendo would be stupid enough to remove end-game when they've repeatedly improved end-game with every gen.
Or rather i HOPE they wont be that stupid.
That'd honestly ruin the game for me since i enjoy getting to the end-game.

What in the actual hell is that supposed to be? Honestly can't even tell.

It's a pie. with worms in it.

(of course it isn't, MasPan is correct)

Well it looks like Black and White's leftover s'hit scraps.

That had damned well better evolve into something awesome to be that. pineappleing. ugly.

I don't know, I can't see how they could ever make this good. If anything I am now expecting Trinacle.
Please GF just end this abomination at it's first stage. I've already seen enough.

Possible SS of Froakie's final evo

I was looking for a rumor roundup and I found this. What do you think of the pokemon in this video?
(ps i'm new to the forum, hi)
