ITT: Real Talk

Ok.

They are fake.

The final owl evo literally has Roothoot's face copy and pasted on it. Final Litten evo is not a Pokemon and doesn't have a unique place where its fire comes from, just its boring old tail like Charizard. Popplio evo is the only one that could possibly work, but even then its terrible-looking. Not worth discussing any further, they're 100% fake just like Roothoot and friends.

At least Typhlosion isn't colored like a real badger and is stylized, the panther is literally a drawing of a panther with some stripes and a bit of fire.

You don't know what a panther is you stupid shit. Little's final evo is based on a cheetah.

That being said, if you want reasons to be skeptical, you don't have to try that hard. First of all, these have only been posted here. Nowhere else. No source, no explanation. Sure, that would be the wisest way for a leaker to go about this to protect themselves. This has never happened before, however. Leakers are usually attention whores, for the most part. What other kind of person would willing risk their job or legal trouble just to reveal information to the Internet that they were all going to get eventually in about 6 month's time anyways? Second of all, who would even have access to sugis of Pokemon not scheduled for a press reveal at some point in the near future? A Japanese GF employee? On 4chan? Probably not. A localization team? Why would they need artwork when the game would be more than enough for their job? The press? Not unless they're getting revealed soon, which has never happened before. Next let's examine the format.

I really don't see any reason to fall for this beyond liking them and wanting to believe.
Finally, the artist is probably among us, shitposting. The roothoot face Easter egg is probably not a coincidence

You don't even need to do anything to be skeptical.

There is no reliable sauce. That's it. They are fake until proven otherwise.

They are the ones who have to prove shit.

>>26360078
You're missing the point. That's not a realistic justification to cry fake. There is no reason to assume GF can't/won't make a starter as simple as or more simple than typhlosion in the future. Besides, it's not like the panther is unmarketable to kids or anything. In fact, it would probably be pretty popular among the least common denominator of Pokemon fans if it were real

>They
Who are "they"?
GameFreak? They'll prove it to you in months time.
I'm not surprised /vp/ is too retarded to tell if a leak is real, none of you even like Pokémon anyway.

>>26360652
You can have a (You), too, friend.
These leaks are totally fake. They have NO possibility of being real, daddy GameFreak hasn't confirmed it for me, so they're fake.
;)

They can't be proven to be fake without finding the artist or something equally unlikely, but they don't need to be proven fake because that's not how burden of proof works. There's nothing obviously fake about them, so it's a waste of time trying to disprove it.
