Eclipse doesn't have a good track record at all and this contradicts statements by Khu, will believe it when I see it
Man-made time machines have been canon since Gen 2, complete with technical limitations being hand-waved with standard "don't change the past or else bad stuff will happen" time travel rules.
The latest game made by the Monolith Soth runs at 378p at times (an upgrade from the 368p resolution found in XC2) so I don't know why anyone would look to them and be surprised at the lack of graphical prowess in this game. It's clear based on the other games they've assisted with that they're no Nintendo EPD.
Honestly it's less "this is insane!!" and more "that's a weird thing to have for this game". Like yeah the god phone was dumb but, whatever, god gonna do what god gonna do in order to have a not sheikahslate for breath of the sinnoh wilds.
it's a game that on its face didn't necessarily need time travel for its premise. I assume, now, that if that is the case it WILL be important in some way, sure but I'm just saying going into idk XY I'm not expecting an opening where its someone being dragged from 3000 years in the past and that someone is calem/serena.

Also just because they're on the game doesn't necessarily mean theyre doing graphical load work.
In my defense that subreddit should do a better job vetting their sources. If he happens to get it right, then it means we have this to look forward to. If not, then I should have been more cautious in posting leaks from there.
This 50 pokeball photo is very strange to me without context based on the time travel theory, ignoring that you are supposed to be holding 50 balls in your hand. Why would the professor give 50 handcrafted pokeballs to some random kid he just met unconscious on the beach, and how would you store them without a backpack or pockets? Something about this doesn't add up.
My crackpot theory is that this character has nothing to do with Akari or Rei and this is actually a tutorial segment where you get to meet the starters and go through some gameplay where you eventually black out and Arceus brings you back to life or you have to avenge your own death or something.
Apparently the guy completely exposed his personal information on facebook so I expected the ninjas to get him eventually.

we will never forget you
poryleeks did also say that a lot of stores are breaking street date though so I don't think it'll be long until the next batch of leaks start rolling in

Though I wasn't thinking of it before, you could argue that some time shenanigains were a requirement for a major pokemon game set in the past. This will obviously connect to Home, and a point is made that it's the same mon being transferred up. In other words, there needs to be some explanation for why the Legends player character would be familiar enough with the modern storage system to send mons.
Honestly, what surprises me more with Monolith is that their Help-out-Nintendo division wasn't entirely busy with BotW 2.
I mean....not really, because Home is entirely its own separate thing & UI. The Legends side doesn't need to explain anything, because there's never going ot be anything in Legends that explains anything or has a need to. It's really easy to abstract it
I was about to say... This is all looking very familiar.
It is impressively brazen of GameFreak to have the Voice of God summon the player into a new world and not turn him/her into a Bulbasaur.
And that's where I stopped reading. That looks like a lot of Exp from catching Pokemon before you have to do any battles. I hope it's enough for Poison Powder Dustox! :D
I would say that this means TMs/tutors are in the game in some form, since I doubt Lucario would learn Thunder Punch and Shadow Claw by level-up. Crunch may have gotten upgraded to level-up status however, since Egg moves, or breeding in general, doesn't seem to be a thing in PLA.
So it's as the rumors once said.
Your job is to catch every Pokémon in Hisui, and then by doing that you will eventually reach Arceus.
Very interesting to see Arceus having a proper speaking role in this game though. It's as if you are partly on this game's mission by Arceus itself and it's testing you to see if you are worthy of being in its presence. I wonder what else Arceus will do in this game's story, since it's very obviously an important character in this game.

Arceus 'bout to use the Splash Plate to flood the region for 40 days and 40 nights.
LMAOOOOOO THIS GAME IS STILL 10 DAYS AWAY FROM AN OFFICIAL RELEASE AND PEOPLE ARE ALREADY SCALPING IT :skull:
if this is real tho we will defo get the dump by at least Friday

Saturday or Sunday if everyone is stupid enough to summon layers by saying they have it in very public places. -_-
So I wasn't coping after all. Once a single copy leaks, it's guaranteed another is sure to follow.
Full back of the box from eBay.
It seems like Aura Sphere and Crunch are stylable while Thunder Punch and Shadow Claw aren't at that point.
What is the thing Rei is looking at in the screenshot on the right next to the Basculegion and Wyrdeer ones? It looks like a really spiky Pokemon but I can't tell what it is????
Is it just me, or does it kind of look like a spikier Avalugg?
Flip it over and it looks a lot like the mon there. It might just be confirmation bias talking but if they just casually put Hisuian Avalugg on the back of the box without it being revealed in the prerelease cycle I'm going to laugh my ass off.
edit: looked at the pic more closely and I'm like 90% sure that's Hisuian Avalugg. The head and foot shapes are exactly the same as Kalosian Avalugg's, but its back looks like a pyramid, which is a feature that Kalosian Avalugg most certainly does not have lmaoooo

It doesn't look like a Pokemon to me. It looks like a move effect, like a big swirl. Maybe something getting hit by Whirlpool or Hurricane, maybe something powering up, I'm not sure.
