The Dragoniteite... the Dragoniteite is real!

Obviously this is their way of teasing the long awaited sequel to Hey You, Pikachu! (Pokémon Channel aside) This time, Pikachu can use GameChat to watch you play other games.

Kalosian Emboar leaked I like that after millennia of regretting his sins and finally reuniting with his old friend, AZ decided to... chill and run a hotel. Hey, even giant immortals can hang around the city and run a business, right? I'm glad that he's living his best life. With how his fate...

I'm mostly expecting just a bunch of mobile game stuff and Legends Z-A, but I'll be satisfied as long as the latter gets a trailer and release window. I think it's much too early for Gen X though, Z-A only got announced last year because there was no mainline release in 2024 and they wanted to...

Did the post say that they were meant to be anime-"exclusive"? Zeraora and Zarude were obviously made with their movies in mind but that doesn't mean they were never planned to be in the games. The logical explanation to me is that Game Freak left spots open for new Mythicals and let the anime...

Something interesting about the Ruby/Sapphire data is that Chimecho existed in the November 2001 data despite clearly being a late addition to the final game. Maybe someone really liked it enough to convince the rest of the team to include it at the last minute? Who knows? Incidentally Nosepass...

Types for new mons: Hydrapple: Grass/Dragon Gouging Fire: Fire/Dragon Iron Boulder: Rock/Psychic Terapagos: Normal (all forms) Pecharunt: Poison/Ghost

It looks like Terapagos's Terastral form is Water-type (other type pending), since that's what its Tera type is. Pecharunt's Tera type is Poison, which was probably expected.

It looks like Farigiraf has two new abilities: Cud Chew ("When a Pokémon with this Ability eats a Berry, it will eat it one more time at the end of the next turn.") and Armor Tail ("It makes opposing Pokémon unable to use priority moves.")

I think Wiglett by itself is fine, but I'd prefer if "convergent evolutions" in the sense that "it looks like a regional form but isn't" don't become a regular thing. Some monster collecting games pass off recolors as completely new species and I'd rather if Pokémon didn't start doing that. (But...

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet is an action game which is based on Paldean history. The stages of the game will also be based on famous battles which actually took place in ancient Paldea. So here's this giant enemy crab... Though in Paldea, when you attack its weak point, you take massive damage.

My first impression upon seeing Grafaiai's silhouette was that it looks like an alternate Aipom evolution, since it could plausibly have a hand on its tail like Aipom does. I'm not sure if the potential aye-aye theme supports that idea, even if aye-ayes are also primates.

Cetitan is great, it's been a while since we've had a whale Pokémon and it's cool that it seems to take inspiration from Arctic whales in particular. I was wondering when Fairy became the food type, but Swirlix and Slurpuff were around in Gen VI so it's always been the food type. I wonder what...

I don't mind too much because I have other things to look forward to, but it's funny how games like Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes and Xenoblade Chronicles 3 had their entire prerelease cycles in the time it took for ScarVi to get two updates. There are some caveats like the latter...

As another thing, it seems we have multiplayer now, in the sense that you can explore the region in a party of four:
