SPOILERS! Pokemon Sword & Shield Pre-Release SPOILERS - Check Post 2!

Wait... ...did the Kitsunoh image come from the same guy who posted all the other images in the second post?

DOES THIS MEAN THEY ARE ALL A HOAX WTF. HOW MANY ARE FROM THE KITSUNOH SOURCE
All or some. Idk, I got it via the battlespot discord and have been at work all day.
Edit: became aware of it via the CAP discord.

I think it was only the second meowth and the fox (not sure abt that one specifically) that were posted by the kitsunoh guy. The others were all by a different guy

According to Prof. Almeida, she did. Sorry man, time for more pink pain.
So stall is back on the menu.. my day is ruined and my disappointment is immeasurable
 
Now that the data is available, I would consider the bar to be raised significantly. After all, the internal data on a pokemon would need to include learnset, egg group, and base stats. A model without them starts seeming a little empty...
Well, we are just two weeks away from Sword and Shield. The real question is how soon or later we will ever see the model and their internal data before Gen 8 releases.

Hot news: The leaker left as 4chan users swarmed the server he was in. Well, safe to say that we won't expect anymore leak soon.

For now we just have a guy playing through the game with Grookey as their starter. The rival takes Sobble in this case. This makes Scorbunny info unavailable to them.

That’s fair, and I do think some of the leaks are real.I just think that if someone has the ability to hack the full Pokédex data they could also get info on Scorbunny as well. Not to mention typings, animation, etc.

I think you can trust certain images, idk if we can trust all the Dex lists coming out.
 
I think it's fairly safe to say the pictures are real (though I've been wrong plenty before), but I have little faith in the text leaks. I would be so, so happy if galarian exploud being fire/steel was real, as I've always loved his design and think he would look amazing as a sort of forge looking pokemon.

Also, immediate love for the purple lizard.

I'm not trusting anything text-based unless it comes from one of the regular data mining guys.
 
Now come to think of it, I've seen a leak that mentions Meowth getting a Galarian form before, regardless if this is real or not. It even mentions that Meowth "looks like a gray cotton candy with body parts". That leak was covered by a YouTuber called MemoMudkip. The Bug/Psychic Galarian Ledyba line is also mentioned in that leak as well.

I got the video link for proof but I dunno if linking to Youtube videos would be considered as forbidden in this forum.
 
Welp Smurf Salazzle is an abomination and ape is apeshit so I'm picking rabbit unless it manages to be worse than them.

For some reason I loved the Fox2. It looks so smarmy and silly. Def using it and calling it Snidley. All other mons look as lame as the others revealed so far so idc.

For the leaks: fuck this game already for no Ice-types.
 
So did we get anything about pre-evo/evo of already revealed mons besides the starters?

Where is stage 1 Corviknight? Or Stage 2 Rolycoly?
 
Kitsunoh and a Blue Raptor from Pokemon Uranium are apparently being passed off as "leaks" so it's kind of hard to know what is real and what is fake.

I'm gonna be skeptical unless one of the more reputable people starts talking.

Ah... so that's where the raptor is from?

Guess I'll need to give that game a look before it was a really neat design.
 
Are we actually 100% certain that the ganes have leaked? Is it reasonably possible that all this info is fake?

That’s where I’m at. Let’s say that someone is doing a playthrough of the game as is alleged. We should have gotten way more than just a few model screenshots (though I’ll admit the elephant leak looks real). I think one of the first things leaked that we didn’t know last gen was Pikipeak’s evo. Abilities were also leaked, as well as some movesets (even if they were tackle, leer, etc.). We’re not even getting screenshots of the first town or gym. This time we aren’t getting anything like that, just random screenshots of mons we may have heard about in other leaks.

Now the leaker may have their reasons for only leaking the info that they did. I just think it isn’t beyond reason to have doubts. Plus, it’s sorta too convenient that we get a bit of a leak exactly 2 weeks before release?
 
We know the games are capable of being dumped, due to preloading. Nothing more is confirmed.
You need a key to even read the data, and it’s allegedly behind 128-bit encryption. Unless you get super lucky it ain’t something that is likely to be broken in less than 2 weeks.

Wasn’t the demo datamined before the games would have been shipped? We woulda known from that.

Yeah. Someone mentioned that's where it's from and it took me a bit to find it on their wiki. It's called Stenowatt.

I don't think we knew anything much about movesets from the demo. Just the Pokemon pictures, because they forgot to scrub some of the dex sprites.
The picture of the Evo was part of it though, so we knew that bit at least.
