Is GameFreak just going to release every new Pokemon before S&M's

>>27023970
The only way that that isn't going to happen is if they happen to have created a substantial amount of new Pokemon for gen 7. But let's face it that's not happening.

>>tfw there will be no exciting leak season like in 2013 because GF are buzzkills

all of the previous 7 pokemon were leaked before they were officially shown.

>>27024023

It's not the same because GF immediately confirmed that they're real. Remember when Hawlucha and Greninja leaked? People were dubious over them being real for weeks.

>Yfw over 120 new Pokemon.

>>27023970
You sound like you think the dex is only going to have 70ish pokemon and not over 279.

gen7 has 109 new pokemon bringing the total to 830

>>27024132

Lie.

>>27023970

I don't know?

>>27024099
I'd love to hear your rationale for this

>>27024132
I'd be satisfied

>>27024165
Shut up, Richard.

>>27024055
>Remember when Hawlucha and Greninja leaked? People were dubious over them being real for weeks.
And this isn't the same issue.

>>27024223

Never trust unofficial sources.

>>27024285
that was his point you FUCKING moron

>>27024193
I don't have the image I usually post explaining this in detail on this computer, so I'll summarize it:
1. Odd-numbered Gens have a larger number of new Pokemon.
2. Lots of people, not just /vp/, were disappointed with only 70 new pokedex entries, including children. (COUNTERPOINT: Jap devs either don't give a flying fuck about the opinions of their fans or are completely oblivious to them, game freak included) I THINK game freak knows this, because of Masuda's cheeky-ass comment about there being "more than 10" new pokemon in sun and moon. A massive amount of new pokemon would make up for the disappointment of only 70 new pokemon.
3. 279+ would have the national dex break 1,000 pokemon. That'd be a HUGE selling/advertising point, as the people who complain about there being "too many" pokemon are the normie casual American trash who haven't played since gen 1 and probably don't plan on playing a video game ever again. (COUNTERPOINT: At this point, we're so close to release that I think them using 1,000 pokemon as an advertising/selling point is far less likely. I think they'd announce that a long time ago if they were planning on doing that.)
4. The likely reasons for them only making 70 new pokemon in gen 6 is because they had to model and animate every single pokemon and create the concept of megas from scratch. The models they used are not the ones from the iOS Pokedex thing. However, it looks like they're reusing all the models from the old game.
Modeling and animating 721 pokemon plus megas from scratch is a LOT of work over 3 years while making B2W2 and making an entirely 3D game. In comparison, modeling and animating ~279 new pokemon (plus megas isn't even confirmed because they haven't announced a single new mega) in 3 years is nothing, especially considering they either cancelled or were never making a Z game.

I'll note that while I always act super confident that they're DEFINITELY going to make 279+ new entries, I realize that there are counterarguments. Basically what I've got there is:
1. They don't have to make 279+ to sell copies, and they probably don't even think that it would sell any more copies than if they made 70.
2. They probably either don't give a fuck or don't realize that people were mad
3. Again, we only have 4 months left, and news has started. There's still a LOT we don't know about the game, but if they were going to try to hit 1,000 for a selling point, they probably would have at least hinted at it by now.
4. We see a fair amount of pokemon from previous games in the wild, and the region looks to be relatively small, or at least not that much bigger than any other regions. Fitting 279+ new entries onto that map would either require some new mechanic like the friend safari or a LOT of cramming.

>>27024448
I see your points but still, 279 is WAY too fucking much for a single generation, specially considering that Alola is full of old Pokémon.

We're probably looking at something around 150.

>>27023970
genuine question: How can you guys love this design ?
I genuinely want to understand why this guy is so appreciated design-wise.

>>27024611
the expression mainly. the dark muted color scheme is cool too.

It's an evil, smug red-backed salamander bandit who doesn't give a fuck.

Also he has Ultros eyes

Probably.
Also, finally a new pokemon design I actually like!
I really don't like any of them except for Salandit and Solgaleo.
Poison and fire looks like an interesting type combo, as well as it's ability. I hope it'll be usable and not just a gimmick.
I hope it's evolution looks good.

That's when the game came out. And they were confirmed in one day.

>>27023970
are you going to complain about every detail of a game you haven't even played??

>>27024854
You're lucky. I only like Solgaleo and somewhat Popplio because of the pose it makes.

114 New Pokemon. Screencap this post.

>From the base of its tail, Salandit can emit both a toxic gas and flames. The gas has a sweet odor that causes dizziness. The female can also release pheromones that attract males of all species, including humans. Additionally, these pheromones may cause opponents to be controlled by this Pokémon's will.

Game Freak does this shit on purpose don't they?

>>27025173
We have a shitload of pokemon already, I'm entirely okay with that.

>>27025186
What does any of that have to do with autism?
