Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl - Release 19th Nov 2021
- Thread starter DHR-107
- Start date
Think it's time for the datamine thread. Both Centro and Kaphotics are on it
While I see where you're coming from, I sincerely cannot take Centro Leaks seriously as a leak account. Don't think Sylveon will be in but I ain't having Centro be the one to outright confirm that lol
I've seen public toilets that are less full of shit than Centro. Active smear campaign full of misinfo.
We'll find out soon enough.
niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice
real leaks about to come through, we eating good now
I dont visit Twitter often anymore for my own reasons but sometimes I do get recommended Tweets in my notifs, some being from Centro
If I never saw his Twitter account again it'd be too soon.
A lot of his """leaks""" are flat out bullshit, stuff we already knew, or stuff a toddler could predict.

Thread so far:
"Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are made with the Unity game engine! This has resulted in a lot of structural changes with how data is stored compared to Sword & Shield's data storage.
Moves that were unavailable in Sword & Shield have partially made a return in these games; Hidden Power is back!?
As other leaks have previously indicated, a Mew and Jirachi are given in the games (both shiny-locked, 3 flawless IVs).
Data for species above 493 are not in the game. These remakes are quite faithful to the originals, so no future-gen form variants -- Platinum forms DO exist.
Special quirks from the originals also make a return, such as the increased/decreased encounter rates on certain days."

Are held items faithful as well? Seems like it's just Gen 4 + Pixie Plate/Roseli Berry as far as I'm seeing. This could be interesting.
They included all the cool code designs. Hopefully they're available from the start.
so uh no boots then?
FAITHFUL
We're getting smoked by Sneaky Pebble again. KANTOOOOO stans in shambles.
RIP Assault Vest.
Holy crap these look so freaking beautiful I'm actually going to cum.
Charon has been erased from history.
I don't know what coding in Unity means from a technical standpoint other than using a different engine is weird and it's going to cause enough differences to annoy Smogon's Research and Programing teams. Good luck guys.
I'd say RIP dreams of Struggle Unown, but you can just use Hidden Power's PP if you want one. I know it's not the same though.
I was a little worried about being locked into all 31s or something after recent event Pokemon, but people that care about 0 Atk and/or Spe IVs can get them!
Remember how much I was roasting this game about Flint? I take back Flint being the worst possible thing. Sylveon deserved to be in this!
Encounters based on time is returning, but certain days?
Edit: Didn't know about that minor detail. I'm starting to feel like being faithful is almost a meme at this point.
Of all the ways to be faithful, that's an odd way.
I didn't realize I missed Box Wallpapers.

All is right with the world.
Specifically this is referring to the discovery last year about how Gen 4 has faster egg hatching and higher/lower encounter rates on certain important dates which ILCA was apparently faithful to, you can see a quoted retweet if you go into the thread,
I doubt it considering there's no minisprites for them, unless you want to hold out hope for the day 1 patch.
So with all the Gen I through IV Pokemon in, that means the following Pokemon are missing from Gen VIII:
Unova:
Kalos:
Alola:
Unova:
- Snivy, Servine, Serperior
- Tepig, Pignite, Emboar
- Oshawott, Dewott, Samurott
- Patrat, Watchog
- Pansage, Simisage
- Pansear, Simisear
- Panpour, Simipour
- Blitzle, Zebstrika
- Sewaddle, Swadloon, Leavanny
- Ducklett, Swanna
- Deerling, Sawsbuck
- Alomomola
- Tynamo, Eelektrik, Eelektross
- Meloetta
Kalos:
- Chespin, Quilladin, Chesnaught
- Fennekin, Braixen, Delphox
- Froakie, Frogadier, Greninja
- Scatterbug, Spewpa, Vivillon
- Litleo, Pyroar
- Flabébé, Floette, Florges
- Skiddo, Gogoat
- Furfrou
- Hoopa
Alola:
- Pikipek, Trumbeak, Toucannon
- Yungoos, Gumshoos
- Crabrawler, Crabominable
- Oricorio
- Minior
- Komala
- Bruxish
What an odd choice.
Oh well. Moves?
Oh well. Moves?
:o
For the love of God please tell me I can capture stuff like Darkrai and Shaymin without the need for events
A man can dream, but my guess is that it's mostly just legendaries from regions other than Sinnoh with few, if any, mythicals.
You know I saw that and thought "who's that fourth character"? I zoomed in and saw it was a normal male grunt and thought "that's odd, why is there a random male grunt there?". Well, guess I know now!
So, I think this is definitive proof that GF hates Platinum version.
Ramanas Park?
