The Damned Posted June 11, 2016 Author Share Posted June 11, 2016 Shiny Mewtwos... if you're signed up for the right stuff. But to top that off, we got some new CoroCoro leaks! It's a koloa pokémon! It seems to be called Nekkoala, the Half Awake Pokémon. It is a Normal-type with the ability Definite Sleep which prevents it being afflicted with a status other than sleep. Next, we have Iwanko. It is a Rock-type Pokémon. It's abilities are Keen Eye or Vital Spirit. Another picture of it. EDIT: And that weird humanoid Zygarde from the anime is now official in Sun/Moon. Lots of news this last day or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subz1987 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 w00t! Zydoge and his monster form are in the games! I feel like they're going to tie Sun & Moon to XY somehow storywise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirby Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Here's an English version of that with slightly more info (also slightly less) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 Welp, people like Iwanko. Not even 24 hours and fans are making high quality plushies of it. This is one of the times when the fandom is pretty cool and alright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty obvious that the new Pokemon reveals are the this generation's Pidgey, Rattata, and Weedle/Caterpie. Pikipek could be good but the other two will just be Pokedex fillers.

In Gen 3, Linoone was a fairly decent Normal type. In gen 5, Scolipede was a fairly decent Bug type. And in gen 5 and games afterwards, Unfezant was and still is 100% useless. What I find super interesting was the mention that everyone keeps missing - that every island has a guardian Pokemon. Could Zygarde actually be the "fourth" one, adding onto a generation's standard three main legendaries? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirby Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 It was mentioned in the demo shown on the Treehouse Live demonstration. Here, I've queued it up to the cutscene that mentions this. Apparently the first island's guardian deity is Tapu Koko, and I think the first island is indeed called Melemele. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted June 15, 2016 Author Share Posted June 15, 2016 Despite the sheer amount of footage and discussion that have come out, I feel like that a 43 minute long interview was the wrong way to go. They could have had a 20 minute Direct video like before, covered everything just as well (if not better; no people talking over the footage) and left it at that. In stead we get 43 minutes of talking, talking, talking, more talking, while the game is blocked out or shrunk down. It was hard to keep watching after the ten minute mark, and it was just depleting to complete. I actually lost interest and don't feel like I saw anything worth while. People talking for 45 minutes isn't showcasing the game. It's just 45 minutes of people talking. HoboKa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it worked because those particular devs aren't ones to have their faces plastered everywhere or give interviews. If it was like...Miyamoto and Aonuma talking constantly about Zelda I think I'd have less interest, but Masuda and the poor dude whose name I can't remember generally don't have very much screen time or face-to-face involvement in talking about their latest game or its inspirations.

The Damned Posted June 17, 2016 Author Share Posted June 17, 2016 The Sun/Moon (SuMo? SM? Is there a consensus on this gen's abbreviation?) QR Scanner feature has a new detail revealed... it's region-locked. http://nintendoeverything.com/pokemon-sunmoon-qr-code-event-distributions-to-be-region-locked/ Well, this isn't exactly a new thing. The current download code system is also partially region locked, and everything from Gen 4 on has done this. I'm guessing it will run similar to the current system, where the region needs to have the event active. When you go online with a code or jsut a download, it routes it to that region, checks to see if there is an event, and then begins the download. Still... region locked? We know from homebrewers that it's not hardware based, as you can set a hacked 3DS to any region, or even region-free. I just don't see the point these days.

Even though they made a big deal about "seeing" Pokemon you haven't seen via QA code...tbh it sounds like it's just another method for Mystery Gift at this point, and different countries have entirely different events for Mystery Gift.

The Damned Posted June 23, 2016 Author Share Posted June 23, 2016 Just a reminder: the 24th is the last day to get your free Manaphy from the Wi-Fi event. After that, you have to wait until July 1st (Canada Day, woo-who!) for Shaymin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool out there, but still out there. Grab the video while you can before it gets taken down. by Nintendo.
