Alright /vp/? Enjoying all the Sun and Moon news? I'm an employee at TPCi UK, and I've come to share some details about the games with you. I'd first like to say that us employees are probably only about 1 to 2 months ahead of you information wise, so I don't know that much about the games, but I still do know quite a bit. Secondly, if you think that TPCi doesn't like leaks then you're stupid, they love leaks. They just don't like large scale leaks of information they weren't going to "reveal" anyway. It gets the internet talking about their games and just adds to the general hype. Remember when Pyroar, Tyrantrum and Aurorus all "leaked" from IGN during X/Y and why pre-release? Yeah, that was planned. And if you don't think they know what they're doing when they hide unannounced Pokemon in trailers like Espurr and the one in today's trailer you're an idiot, but anyway:
>There was some footage we were given of the starters that was kept back from the reveal trailers. It showed Rowlet using Extrasensory, Litten using Play Rough and Popplio using Acrobatics. Make of that what you will.
>We don't know how many Pokemon are going to be included in the game but bosses are indicating it's more than X/Y
>Alola is indeed made up of multiple islands. We were given art of the next two to use in upcoming press releases.
>We don't know the typing but we have the footage of the legendaries using their signature moves and Solgaleo is definitely using a Fire move. It's called Blazing Glory. Lunaala's move is called Eclispe Beam.
>TPCi isn't planning on showing as much of the Dex as they did prior to X/Ys release due to fan feedback. If you think we don't check the online fan forums, you're wrong.
continued...
> Four Pokemon will be shown off next month, they are the Woodpecker seen in the reveal trailer. It's name is Pipicker and it's Normal/Flying. It's shown to learn Drill Peck.
>Next is this weird gnome like Pokemon, like imagine what a garden gnome might look like if it looked less like a person and more like a Pokemon e.g Mime Jr. It is Fairy/Rock and it shown using Rock Tomb. It's name is Gnoinz. Don't know where they got that one from. The design has been a bit controversial around the office.
>Next up is a pure Grass sheep Pokemon called Baaley that's wool is so overgrown that it basically looks like a bush with a few sheep features popping out. It has some wild flowers growing in it's wool. It doesn't use a move in the trailer.
>Finally, a dolphin is shown, it is pure Water and named Cufinn. There is a brief clip in the trailer of the player riding one across the sea but it's not clear if this is similar to riding Skiddo in X/Y or if it's a Surf animation.
That's all I have to say, I probably won't be back to answer questions but I may drop in. I hope you enjoy the information. All of us who work here are massive Pokemon fans and we're as excited for the games as you are.
>>26314689
Fuck yes dolphin
Thanks, its looks really believable because the new Pokemon looks not really exciting and the types sucks
>>26314686
>Popillo with Acrobatics
Yeah no shit, it's a circus seal, it would've been stupid if it didn't have it
Certain moves don't mean anything, Typhlosion can learn Extrasensory
>>26314689
>Fairy/rock gnome-like pokemon
Please be real
>>26314686
ROOTHOOT CONFIRMED STAGE 2
FEELS GOOD BEING RIGHT
>>26314838
>>26314689
>ANOTHER Sheep
>ANOTHER GRASS Sheep
>Bosses are indicating
>Fan Feedback
Get lost.
>>26314847
>Still believing in Roothoot
I'm sorry, what was that?
proof?
>>26314686
Fuck. Rowlet has a bowtie. It learns extrasensory. It's a magician pokemon. Psychic (Rowlet), Dark (Litten), and Fighting (Popplio). Final typings: Grass/Psychic, Fire/Dark, Water/Fighting.
>>26314686
>Litten using Play Rough
why would they give you a 90BP Fairy-type move at any level where you can reasonably expect to be using litten over its evolutions
>>26314890
Prepare you anus denialfag
>>26314913
they showed Fennekin with Psychic in the run up to X/Y
>>26314935
>>26314686
>Alright /vp/? Enjoying all the Sun and Moon news? I'm an employee at TPCi UK,
Fuck you for delaying our release then.
>>26314955
Nice dubs, for a denialfag.
Two fives? Really? Thats the best you could do?
>>26315012
Nice 12 you fagola.
>>26314876
>gogoat was a fucking goat you imbecile
>>26315054
Its clearly a 2.
I pity you denialfags, cant even count
>>26314900
Giving Rowlet Flying type just to replace it later would be stupid.
Fake but at least you kept it simple and believable. Nice job overall.
>>26315193
Not really, just look at Skorupi or Larvitar/Pupitar. Skorupi was a Bug-type at first but then lost it for Dark, same thing for Larvitar/Pupitar, both were Ground at first and lost it for Dark. This isn't really that odd when you actually think about it.
>>26315137
Haha fuck I haven't seen that pic before
>>26315064
>Grass Sheep
>Cottonee
>Whimsicott
>Sheep
>Mareep Line
>Using Green Text wrong
Just go home.
>>26314900
So why does Extrasensory mean psychic on Rowlet, but we apparently ignore Play Rough (Fairy) on Litten and Acrobatics (Flying) on Popplio?
>>26315137
Nice 37 you fagola.
>>26315239
What do those pokemon have anything to do with a grass sheep? You literally just named some mons with fluff or the ONE sheep Evo line. You've made no point.
Also posting 2 pokemon from the same evolution line to make your list bigger just makes you look desperate
>>26314686
Op here ok ok you caught me, I was pretty bored so I decided to make a leak just to pass some time and speculate a little, did I at least sound convincing.
>>26315364
>acting as OP because you don't like the leak
Pathetic.
>>26315364
You aren't me.
>>26314686
is the new pokemon in today's trailer a dog or a deer? name? typing? anything?
>>26315364
It's as if you don't know people can see individual posters.
>>26315326
Numbnuts, the point is we already have two lines of sheep, one of which is already a grass sheep line. Your bait is stale. Go bake some new bait for your hooks.
>>26314900
If my math is right (it likely isn't) only 37.5% of pokemon that learn extrasensory are psychic type. Grass/Psychic is a worse defensive type than Grass/Flying. I'll take either.
Conformation on post game content when?
>>26315239
two of those are cottonballs you fucknugget
>capitalizing green text and acting like it's special
double fucknugger
>>26315326
Whimsicott is a ram. The cotton is wool and the swirls on its head are horns.
>>26315326
>Whimsicott isn't a sheep
>Based off the Vegetable Lamb of Tartary which is why it is Grass/Fairy
wew lad
>>26314838
i so much want a gnome
>>26315395
We don't know. It's not going to be revealed any time soon.
where's your proof nerd
>>26314686
>>26315239
Not seeing how Cottonee and Whimsicott are sheep
>>26316040
What do you think they are?
>>26316056
That tree cotton crap that floats around in the spring and summer
>>26314686
>calling people idiots at every opportunity
yeah you're probably some amoral marketing faggot
this sounds pretty real idk
>>26316062
Dandelions? That Jumpluff.
While Whimsicott is based off the Lamb of Tartary, a mythical plant that grew sheep. It's why Whimsicott is literally a cotton planet with horns like a ram and wool like a sheep.
>>26316149
No do you live in America?
I'm talking about these seeds that look like cotton and the wind blows it off of trees every year
>>26315401
Gogoat is a goat, not a sheep retard
>>26316199
Yeah. Whimsicott is based on cotton though. It's obvious in its name.
>Whimsicott
>Whimsical + Cotton
>>26316217
Then why do you think it is a lamb based on a vaguely known myth and not something commonly found in America the region the creature is based on where the creators of the game have visited
>>26316245
Not all Unova Pokemon are based on American legends.
>Cofagrigus = Egyptian sarcophagus
>Sigilyph = Peruvian Nazca lines
>Golurk = Jewish golems
It's not a stretch for that myth to be the design origin for Whimsicott, especially when there are obvious design elements from it.
>>26316313
It's not a legend it's an actual thing first of all
Secondly there are no similarities you are grasping at straws for something called the Windveiled Pokémon when they myth has a sheep growing out of the ground
>>26316387
>It's not a legend it's an actual thing first of all
Whimsicott is the actual thing? Why do you think it is Grass/Fairy?
Being the Windveiled Pokemon doesn't refute anything. A pokemon doesn't have to be only one concept. Look at Noivern.
>Wyvern
>Bat
>Boombox
>>26316427
Wow you are dense
You think that it is based on this pic instead of little pieces of cotton looking seeds that the wind carries
>>26316457
Those aren't cotton you stupid fuck. They are dandelion seeds. Whimsicott literally has cotton in its name.
>>26316457
You're dense enough to think Pokemon must look exactly like their design inspiration. And you fail to see the similarities to Whimsicott because you're hung up on it representing one thing.
Fun fact: The Vegetable Lamb of Tartary was a fable of the cotton plant.
>http://www.pantheon.org/articles/v/vegetable_lamb.html
>>26316313
>sigilyph
>Unova
You are full of bullshit in so many ways...
>>26316481
No jackass I literally mean tree cotton. It's not a dandelion seed
>>26316555
Sigilyph debuted in Unova, you dumb fuck. It's a native pokemon.
Then what are the gyms and elites then?
>>26314689
FUCKING GNOME? KEEMSTAR?

>>26314686
>>26314689
(you) deserve all the (you)s if this is legit
The names are surprisingly good for a fake leak
>>26314913
Lots of Cat Pokemon get Play Rough, like Absol. It's not out of the question. Fennekin can learn Power Up Punch.
>>26315239
Wut
>>26314686
Post proofsEven though I want to believe
>>26316652
Honestly, I think OP MIGHT be legit, if only because he isn't giving huge doses of information, and is being oddly specific.
>uses moves with starters, but is clearly being vague as fuck as to their actual typing
>confirms the fact that the game's map is of more islands
>specific names for legendary moves that sound legit, but not the legend's typing
>3 new weird shit 'mons
This is all the info he actually gave us, and it sounds right up Gamefreak/Nintendo's alley when it comes to revealing information.
Though I would remain skeptical all the same.
>>26317144
It'd be interesting if he were true
more and more I read this the more I think they're real
