SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

and we just had Calyrex last gen so it wasn't going to be Psychic.

For Grass/Ghost, we “just had” Brambleghast in SV and Poltchageist in this very update itself though… :tymp:

Plus, repetition even with Legendary-tier Pokémon has never stopped them before (Hoopa Confined, Lunala, Dawn Necrozma, Calyrex Shadow all being Psychic/Ghost)


Another Pokémon that will be impossible to get next gen...

I’m guessing this “data we have” is nothing more than exactly what everyone else is already speculating off of?
 
Not necessarly. We thought the same of Lycanroc Dusk and Own Tempo Rockruff, but it was actually made available normally in gen 8 and 9.

Nothing excludes Blood Moon Ursaluna to show up regularly in next generation somewhere.
But that time we could evolve that Rockruff, this time there's no Ursaring to evolve

yeah it's literally just the same reasoning that I used earlier

It's the Ground/Steel thing all over again!
 
When you move to the mountains, you have two options:
-freeze and turn into an ice type
-die

Braviary is hoping no one notices
Ah, but Hisuian Braviary went extinct, (as far as we know as of right now), so technically it DID die.

I mean just because it’s potentially a one-off in this game doesn’t mean it won’t be importable or catchable in some way in another game. You forget also that Battle Bond Greninja itself IS importable up to gen 9, they just presumably cut the Ash part of it because of its tie-in to a specific season of the anime that is no longer running and to a character that is no longer the protagonist of the show. Bloodmoon Ursaluna has no such restrictions.
 
Another Grass/Ghost

Frowning bugs, can we get this one done in HD if possible? Thanks in  advance : r/MemeRestoration
 

yeah ik our septillionth Ghost/Grass type is lame-o especially since we just got Poltchageist and Sinistcha

but look on the bright side guys

WE FINALLY GOT OUR FIRST GHOST/ROCK TYPE

We don't know if Ogrepon is ghost in all of its forms. It could be, but it keeps its grass features in all of its forms, so it could just be grass/ghost and then grass/water, grass/fire, and grass/rock. It's the most boring option, which also means there's a high chance GameFreak opts for it.

The post literally has all of the types listed though????????????

Oh, my bad, the reddit embed was just a big blank space when I quoted your post (still showing that way for me in the quote in my post), so I didn't realize you were quoting new "info."

Not going to 100% trust Centro just yet, since they have a tendency to speculate and pass it off as leaks, but these are typings I was hoping for, so I'm going to claim a tentative victory for my crackpot theory from this post:

Crackpot theory time: in the key art for the Teal Mask there are a bunch of lanterns with type symbols on them, which have been speculated to be hints at the types of the loyal three and Ogrepon:

Khu highlighted the lanterns recently, too. Given that the loyal three have Toxic chain as an ability, they likely share Poison. The most recents presents had a scene in which Munkidori used a psychic move, Fezandipiti used Moonblast, and Okidogi used something like Giga Impact but could possibly be an updated Meteor Assault, which could hint at Psychic, Fairy, and Fighting types for those three. Then, we've also seen that the balloons in the ogre busting minigame have grass, fire, water, and rock symbols on them.

This accounts for all of the symbols except ghost and the ogre symbol. Possibly then Ogrepon could be part ghost, which if it were dual-type in all its forms would make it the first rock/ghost, third water/ghost, and seventh grass/ghost and fire/ghost lines. :P (But, if its mask changes its type, then possibly it acts more like terastallization and becomes mono-type depending on which mask it wears).

Presumably the ogre symbol is just representative of the ogre story, but I guess there's an outside chance it's the 20th tera type. (Though it'd be weird if part 1's special tera type were revealed before part 2's, so I wouldn't bet on this).

Yeah, I’m just gonna wait for someone other than Centro when it comes to the typings. He’s already spread misinformation because all he’s doing is haphazardly reporting things from a second- or third-hand view.
I still remember him saying that Walking Wake was gonna probably be Water/Fire based on its signature move name even though Khu had already directly hinted at it being Water/Dragon by that time.
 
Ogrepon's different. It's Ghost/Grass. Totally different. Just like how Scream Tail's unique by being Fairy/Psychic rather than Psychic/Fairy.

Absolutely.

Not to be that person but what's the value of sharing Centro posts in this thread? They are proven to know nothing and contribute little of value to the conversation. It's really just clutter.

My speculation is as useless as anyone else's but it seems a bit more likely to me that Ogerpon gets the Ghost typing from the Teal Mask and loses that when the mask gets swapped out given that the other forms still retain the Grass design elements. I'd really love to be proven wrong though.
 
The post literally has all of the types listed though????????????

The post is from Centro though, they've been know to just share their interpretations of Khu's words as facts. I don't dismiss the possibility of all forms being Ghost, but do take the info with a grain of salt because it's just Centro's take rather than a proper source leaking info
 
I'd rather BM Ursaluna were a legendary than another Battle Bond Greninja. They should not set a precedent or it will make it more difficult to nuke BB in the future.
