Spoink/Grumpig = Psychic Pig.

I still believe that Pokabu will be Fire/Ground, Water type will be Water/Fighting and the Grass will be Grass/? Don't know what fits well with that circle. Steel?

No I know about Spoink/Grumpig... but they were pure Psychic. What premise would GF have to make a pig that's Fire AND Psychic? 0.o

Hey, you guys seen this yet? Still not confirmed, but it looks pretty legit if you ask me. I believe it. Which kinda sucks, since the Tsutarja evolution kinda sorta blows. But the Mijumaru one isn't bad, but honestly, anything is an improvement over Mijumaru. Also, bat thing (Zubat replacement?) and what I'd say is something that looks like a first-stage "pseudo-legendary" Pokemon.

I'm fairly confident it is fake. The drawing isn't all that great, and the shading doesn't even seem finished. Why would Gamefreak just have some half-assed (no offense to whoever drew it; it's good, but not official artwork quality) and half-drawn sketch laying around? Doesn't seem to add up.

Because it's only production art, it's not supposed to be finished. I'm hoping it's real cause then that'd make the water starter pretty badass, being water/fighting.

That Tauros Evo looks sweet, but I was thinking more of a Bison look would happen, I hope this is real though.

Apparently it was rumored that it would be called "Minotauros"
I have no idea, but I think this was coming from the same guy who predicted the Professor's new name: Araragi(or something like that)

And here's so everyone can see. The [real?] water and grass first stage evos of B&W:

I'm curious as to what the version exclusives would be, and how balanced they would be for the metagame. Something seemed to click in my mind when I thought that White would be getting the 'bulkier' exclusives, and Black would be getting the more 'sweeper-oriented' Poke.

That, and I just don't want another fiasco like HG/SS where the only reason you got Silver was for Ursaring and Skarmory. Damn, compared to all the exclusives Heart Gold got....

I guess, but still why would it be laying around open for people to see? I have a feeling Mijumaru will have his revenge via his stage 2, regardless if these are real or not. He'll probably be the best of the 3.

Minotauros is fake and that is fan-art. Pokebeach had discussed this thoroughly a few weeks ago, and none of the rumors came up to be true.

You know, that dragon thing looks a lot like a Phrynocephalus mystaceus a type of toadhead agame. See for yourself:

They even have the same toes / claws.

You know, if Spiritomb really does evolve into Sarcophagus, I think that would be the biggest change in colour I've seen in a pokemon evolution. VERY dark colours -> VERY bright colours. It doesnt sit well with me.

Remoraid -> Octillery. Hell, that's not only an extreme color change but a complete change in species >_>

I like the image of the Water evo, but I'm in the minority that I don't want it to be a Water/Fighting. I want it to be Water/Ice. X3

No more Water/Ice types! And I want a boxer otter Water/Fighting, DON'T RUIN MY DREAMS

I hope collecting all the Pokemon is a challenge. I remember how brutal it was to get the last couple of Pokemon in Sapphire (But it was fun lol). Spoink, Relicanth, and Chimecho I'm lookin' at you. I'm going to hold off looking at all the new Pokemon (bar the pre-release ones) and resisting using Serebii/whatever as a source to find all the Pokemon. I want to discover everything myself, I think that's the charm in Pokemon and something I should have done with Diamond/Platinum.

the image could possible be real.. i mean.. water/fighting.. grass/dark.. making the fire starter fire/psychic. so our comments about making the "circle of types" reversible.
Click to expand...


I'm hoping unlike this gen the circle of types is enforced rather than reversed. With all the hype about Water/Fighting I'm (really) hoping for Grass/Psychic and Fire/Dark.

"But we already have a Fire/Dark,"
Yeah, because we DON'T already have a Water/Fighting. Shut up.

Give another Seal-like Water/Ice 3-stage pokemon (possibly a Narwhal or something) and I'll be fine with water/fighting otter :) I like abusing Hail in my Ice-teams

I hope there isn't too many new trade pokemon...I don't really trade, so I usually have to AR those pokemon.

We haven't had a sweeper Water/Ice. An epic otter wielding giant icy carved shell blades (coughRedwallcough) with base 107 speed (since I still like Infernape) and base 125 Attack with Kingdra-esque bulk would pwn all with epic Shell Blade. I'd certainly want that.

Besides, that otter's evo will probably SCREAM for a Brian Jacques lawsuit no matter what.

I love magnezone too but I'm sorry, better than skarmory, that's fake. Yet again no one clearly reads what I say here, I said If skarmoy where to evolve to a stage two(In which I know he won't, possibly one at the max) he will be Argubly one of the best steel types, reason, with a base stat at around 470. it's still used a lot in major gameplay, therefore if it evolves to around 525 base, It's already massive 140 base defense will shoot to 155, and it's lower base hp and sp.def will increase and not mention it will gain a very decent 100 base attack! thus making him an awesome fighter not just for stealth attacks but for bravebird attacking as well!

You must be joking....Skarmory is more of a physical wall , Magnezone traps Skarmory and K.Os in 1....2 at max thunderbolts....

New WiFi Event - Ash's Pikachu
Within a flyer at the McDonalds restaurants in Japan, there was a note indicating that a new Wi-Fi event is going to occur in Japan following the current Goon's Scizor Wi-Fi event. This event is based upon the Pikachu that has been owned by Ash since the animé started on April 1st 1997 and can be downloaded on all Generation IV Pokémon games. It is currently unknown what its details are. This event is set to begin on July 15th 2010 and it is not currently known what day the event ends

Possibly another trade that unlocks something for B/W or is it just for the anime fanboys?
 
gamefreak trolled us in multiple different ways ever since pokemon RBY came out....but this.....this ash pikachu event.....is the most insane evil twisted mind raping troll that gamefreak ever did.
