- Thread starter DHR-107
- Start date
Heck, not just vtubers but some IRL streamers get clipped and translated too so it is definitely not something unheard of.
Edit: Also regarding Penny and Team Star: She could also be picked on/pressured by them in some way that would cause her to skip school. It would also give the Player Character motivation to go after them and make it so that all 3 of the stories involve the three fellow classmates they showed off earlier.
I missed a couple things, which webinar?
My bad, that probably wasn't clear enough. I meant what the Rock or Electric crowns would look like.
Hey All,
As we are finally a month away from launch I have a small present for a number of you:

The above will be the primary thread for discussing leaked information - Do not click if you do not want to be spoiled!
This thread will continue to be the primary thread for Official Information released by TCPi/Nintendo/GameFreak.

It could be good for worldbuilding.
Looks like previews are gonna be starting soon
For what its worth, we got the Grafaiai reveal cycle in the last week of August and the Wiglett webimar in the last week of September. I can see them doing another unusual trailer for October. Could even be a Halloween themed reveal for some Ghost mon or something (altho still would find it weird to have an unusual reveal right after Bellibolt)
Early hands om test reviews are coming in, including one from Serebii Joe himself!
I think the October 25th thing is going to be a separate reveal though but still probably SV related as it has the border used in most SV related content. Seems like the preview videos are all releasing right about now though and I'll put whatever I find here for reference before viewing later.

EDIT: I think a lot of these videos may have played the game but just got the same raw footage to talk over so these will be pretty redundant.

Any new Pokes or regional forms show up in those?
Apparently, review copies have been sent and reviews may start to popping here and there. Serebii got to play the game and posted their preview (including video with new footage).
Joe didn't reveal any new Pokémon/forms but confirmed the following:
Joe didn't reveal any new Pokémon/forms but confirmed the following:
- Shiny Pokémon are visible in the overworld
- Wild Pokémon won't attack the player like in PLA
- Trainer cannot move during the battle (unlike PLA)
- Trainer battles have to be started manually (i.e., talking to them, so no need to avoid trainers)
- Day/night is not tied to real world clock
- There's random weather effects that can affect the player
- When leveling up you will be asked if Pokémon should learn a new move
- Moves can be relearned/forgotten at any time like in PLA
- Pokémon PC is always accessible
The legendary bikes’ movement looks so smoooooth. PLA rideables were decent but transitioning between them could be clunky. The Raidons look like a very fun movement system.
I'm pretty confident they were explicitly asked to not share anything about new pokemon/forms they encountered.
Also I'm glad to read from the feedbacks that the Tera Raids aren't anywhere as clunky/boring as the Max raids, and don't risk you having to fall asleep waiting for people on 56k internet.
No, Shiny Pokemon were never visible in the overworld in SwSh.
Let's Go had them visible in the overworld, but not SwSh.
They will start a battle with you if they run into you, ala SwSh though.
Also did any of those previews mention anything about Tera Blast's base power or was that something that couldn't be shown.
Cetitan can learn Ice Shard I repeat Cetitan can learn Ice Shard
Hopes of usability increasing rapidly
You say that implying that speedruns don't already ignore every ignorable battle and just go "ha ha X-item go brrr"

In IGN's preview it's mentioned that the fight against Brassius was a pushover due to the player having stronger Pokémon than what would be expected at that point in the game. This does not necessarily mean that difficulty scaling isn't a thing, but you certainly can overlevel the opponents if you go out of the "expected" path.
