| Some pokemon seem to have just got leaked. - Thoughts:
The bug looks absolutely awesome, meanwhile the dragon looks absolutely creepy. The eyes man, the eyes.

| Here is the official trailer. In Japanese thus far. Also shows the same Zygarde nonsense again. - Thinky things:
It's Falcor-mon! Some terrible designs in there, including the worst fish since Luvdisc, the Traditional New Electric Rodent (for crying out loud), and a barely-there pathetic-looking fairy-bug. I can at least appreciate the elefairy.

| Poorly designed new Pokémon announced! - Thunks:
Ehhhhhh. Ugly bastard. Also based on a salamander, an amphibian, not a lizard.
For a brief moment I thought that Corrosion looked like a really great ability. Poison attacks can hit Steel-types? Great! Alas, instead it turns out that it just allows poisoning, and therefore even that is, to quote Jimbob Sterlingssen, a bit toss.

| If you don't think salamanders are lizards you might need to brush up on your fantasy Balla. Being serious though I wager highly that they're basing it on the fantasy creature first and foremost rather than the real-world one. If I were to attack it I'd say that ground weakness is absolutely horrible, and its typing in general has poor synergy. Aside from that I like the guy though, nice sneaky troll face eyes fitting with the Poison type moniker of being sleazy Pokemon. The design is a heck of a lot tighter than anything from the last batch honestly. The ability is fine in my opinion. Better in fact, steel types are frequently tanks or walls and being able to status them with the most common and best hp reduction afflictions in the game is honestly a far bigger boon even in in-game, and in pvp being able to toxic Heatrans is going to be amazing. |

| Saw the new beastie yesterday - liked the look of it, to be honest - all dark and mysterious. The designs have been pretty good so far, I'd say. |

| BAHAHAHAHAHA - Snrk... giggle... BAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA:
Both of these two are in "so stupid they're brilliant" territory, although I'm sad the bear isn't part fairy. The Fakeachu, though... I want it. I really seriously do.

| The fakeachu is very bold design, in my opinion. The bear... looks a bit ordinary to me. |

| Evilchu looks amazing! The bear not so much, I'll be sticking to Teddiursa when I want an adorable bear and Ursaring when I want a grizzly monster. |

| And yet more of them. - Thoughts:
No real strong opinions here. Trilobite basis is cool I guess? But how are you meant to catch it? (Net Balls. Lots of Net Balls.) And some interesting abilities.

| I think I'm going to have to call it as close to quits as possible till the games come out at this point, we're reaching that part of the cycle where too much is being spoiled (I blame square enix for creating this hype method). Can't do anything about the youtube videos in the sub feed, but I can avoid everything!
What can I say, I like going to routes and finding Pokemon I've never seen before. I've had my tasters, I'm out. |

| - More new Pokémon:
Bounsweet looks like part of the Hoppip line and Bewear is ridiculous. I said on Twitter last night that it looks like a cardboard cutout and not a real animal (I know there are rubbish bag Pokémon and gas cloud Pokémon and ice cream Pokémon and lawnmower Pokémon and that, but most of them are still supposed to be real animals, dangit). That aside, grand. 10/10, would capture.

What can I say, I like going to routes and finding Pokemon I've never seen before. I've had my tasters, I'm out. Yeah that is a fair point, and I tried that for X&Y (with, it must be said, limited success). I might try that again from now. Bear remains stupid though. |

| ...did you put that one in the right thread Shanks? Looks like it might be S&M-related to me. God damn it a page I follow on Facebook just spoiled stuff for me. And yep, this is definitely in the wrong thread. MODS.! |

ICESHREW BEST POKEMON!
And if you think otherwise you're wrong! Ahem, new trailer out. They're really changing up the formula this time, super exciting! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AZHowhxM0U - Fanboying:
Exegutor is hilarious. Awful, and hilarious. I was going to rage, then LORD ICESHREW blessed us with his presence and everything was forgiven. Same for Vulpix and Ninetails which look as lovely as their original forms. Nice to see pre-evolutions are getting apparent Mega evolutions now!
Super moves too, those animations are hilarious and adorable in equal measure!
And man they've changed up the game progression a bunch too! Rideable Pokemon for everything it seems! And actual boss fights!
We're making Alola great again this november! Get hyped!

Albeit vague ones. And I've already been spoiled. But seriously, tag that stuff. |

Must. Let. Trump hate. Reassert itself!

| So, I've been hearing that people are speculating Mega Evolution might be gone now. - Spoiler:
Not sure I agree with the idea, sure we've got super moves now (yet to be seen if those are strictly for specific Pokemon or all Pokemon get them) and we've got "Alola" variants of Pokemon, but they've never changed a battle mechanic in the entire series. So it'd be a little strange to remove it, especially given how hard they pushed it.
