God this was retarded. As if similitudes never happen in pokémon designs, and this guy had no idea how drawing works, the poses were different for fuck's sake.

oh my god that's one of saddest and most pathetic posts i have ever seen on 4chan

Oh, goodie

I don't know what's more impressive, the face some sad twat took credit for shit he didn't do- that turned out to be legit Pokémon art btw- or the fact he correctly guessed Pignite's name.

>>27309865
I remember that, when the starters first got revealed /vp/ started naming them. Smug leaf obviously, but I'm pretty sure Tepig was being called Pignite on here.

I must admit that I've passed a good bunch of 2015 screaming on vp "it's going to be XY2 you retards" because, well, every sign pointed towards that. In fact I'm still surprised that we got SM instead, but whatever.. I shield my shame with anonymity

The worst was when Hawlucha was leaked here, and some retarda thought it was fake because the feathers were assymetrical.
It was standing at a 3/4s view. They literally had no idea how perspective works.
Even if it was was asymmetrical, how does that make it fake?

:^)

>>27310161
Fake and stupid

>>27314114
I don't think these are real because of a certain inconsistency with the designs
Tiger 3 is an angry heel who shoots fire from his crotch, it looks like Litten but doesn't have the personality that was established for Litten on the website. On the other hand Owl 3 develops the idea of Rowlet being a fast owl who shoots his feathers into an archer. Why would Rowlet's evolution make sense while Litten's doesn't? It just doesn't make any sense. Sea Lion 3 is kind of inbetween, it kind of takes the performer feel from Popplio but at the same time it doesn't. Also Popplio has 87.5 chance of being male and it looks pretty masculine, and unlike Delphox Sea Lion 3 looks too feminine for a pokemon that has a higher chance to be male, Braixen looks feminine but it's only the second stage and loses the femininity when it evolves.
On the topic of these "leaks" every other piece of concept art shows the names of the pokemon while these just say Owl3, Tiger3, and Sea Lion3, ALSO on tiger3's sheet it has a doodle of Ash and his female companion. Other reference sheets just show the pokemon but this one has Ash.
also Owl3's arrow is short in one picture and longer in another but that doesn't seem too important

TL;DR probably fake

There are Pokemon who change personalities when they evolve.

At least read the whole thing before disagreeing just because you like the "leaks"
but if you did read it then my apologies

>>27317132
Rowlet and Popplio don't lose their personality and aesthetics, speaking of aesthetics, most starter evolutions have different color palettes when they evolve while these minus sea lion 3 have the same palettes

At the risk of sounding like I'm trying to force my opinion on other people, I just want to say that if you actually want these designs to be real and think they're cool, you should just go fuck yourself, because they are by far the shittiest and most boring looking starters, beating even the last gen. That tiger especially is a fucking joke, and would single handedly prevent me from buying Sun or Moon. I've seen my 5 year old niece shit out better designs with a crayola crayon on my aunts wall.

Are people seriously this new, dumb and naive not to know about the Japanese's infatuation with the English language or are you just pretending to be retarded?

Even ignoring that [CONFIDENTIAL] has shown up on Pokemon concept art before, the Japanese absolutely love to litter their things with "cool-sounding" English phrases, even in serious business contexts.

Already been done by a Bulbapedo forum member:

Owl3
1. Has a calm\cool persona ( Rowlet is the next Sceptile folks)
2. Tightens its hood when its upset or irritated
3. Uses its quills as arrows and vines as the string.
4. Its difficult to notice which helps it ambush foes
5, Much like Ash's Sceptile it likes to chill on Tree branches.
Tiger3.
1. Has a wild and gusty persona ( Think Might Guy from Naruto or Red Magnus from D5.
2. Fights dirty- spits ember in its opponents face, isn't above using unconventional items or means, uses Fire Spin from its belt.
4. Has a signature move called Beast\Tiger Swing???
5. That Belt gets hotter the more "passionate" it is ( I guess this is its variation of Blaze.)
Sea lion3
1. Uses its voice to charm and or lure opponents
2. Has a elegant and welcoming nature
3. Is very playful ( I wager this is GF'S way of not making it "evil" since Sirens would lure sailors to their doom just for fun)

I get that, it's just lines like Owl3 5. Tiger3 4. and the lack of information for Sea Lion3 that convinced me

The Japanese on the supposed leaks are really accurate as well which leads me to believe that if they are fake then it wasn't made by some everyday 4chan fag

>>27310444
>Garbarge
>not garbage

>>27318017
I can't actually read much the text at that size but I think I know enough about Japanese text to know that there are way too few characters to convey all of those elements you just listed. Some bits and pieces are correct (tiger swing), others are definitely not there (text next to fire belt literally says "fire belt" and doesn't describe its function)

>Unlike other starters who at least gave some sort of ambiguity, she has little to no room regarding imagining it as a male
>There will be people who can only picture it as a female

>Which in turn might make the gender rate fucked as hell, even if it just so happened to be 50/50 because people will most definitely merely see it as female and female only and regardless of the rate, will try to soft reset so she's 100% female in order for the design to make some sort of sense

If you know a thing about japanese translation, you'd realize that most japanese translators almost always try to make a version of what they think it's written in japanese. As a result, that's why manga subbing for instance can get quite dodgy from time to time, because when seeing the subs of one person, you think you know that X is well translated until you check on another manga sub and you realize that shit isn't actually as accurately translated as you think it is.

It's more on a matter of finding the correct translator that doesn't just get the gist of it and tries to translate the dialogue as they see fit, but rather one that knows how to translate japanese correctly enough to know how to compose certain sentences/phrases while being accurately translated at the same time.

I'm not sure how "good" this translator actually is, but honestly, I'd like a second translation just to make sure the text above is actually what the japanese dialogue actually means in the fake leaks.

>>27318254

And fuck me, I thought I was the only one who thought the incredible lack of text/annotation on the seal's part was disturbing. Especially design wise, you'd think a design like hers would require some sort of attention towards how it's drawn or what each part of its design actually means. It just seems like it's merely describing what and how this pokemon acts like.

>>27318774
If these are real Tigelist probably will be the most popular since the concept seems to be trying to make it into a typical anime hero, Pearlio will gain popularity as a niche fanservice Pokemon, and the owl will be popular on sites like 4chan, Gamefaqs, and Reddit.

(Though being competitively good could make anyone popular on this site)

I know the parenthesis parts are his notes.

But is the one mention about Ash's Sceptile outside those parenthesis a note too? If it is, then the rest of the translation outside those parenthesis might be part of the translators' notes too and there might be more clutter than we think it is.

This is the Pokemon fanbase we're talking about, anon.

Not even bringing into mention whoever decides to go unspoilered and even thinks for a second Popplio will become something in between, manages to get a male one (either by bigger chance or 50/50), grows used to it and gives it a probably male sounding name and let's just hope that the middle evo already shows some signs of Popplio wanting to become a lady, otherwise, people will either get mad at the sudden no-warning shift because they can't really seem to picture Poppmaid's design as male, entirely box it due to losing interest on it and go for another Water type or just accept the fact that Popplio decided to become a beautiful lady and go through the rest of the game showing you're proud of your feminine male sea lion while making it use something like Attract on a female Charizard, that would be a hoot.

To the few people who won't mind it at all like Tumblr, the rest of the people might not be as open-minded as you wish they were and might in turn, definitely have a impact on the overall popularity of this mon unless it just so happens to even out. Starter final evolutions have always been unpredictable and I do admit pokemon like Emboar doesn't look all that feminine either I liked how Bianca's Emboar happened to be a female though, but this is on a whole new level.

>>27319256

>Pengu

I just want Hawkeye over there to be real.

My only concern is that the starters managed to keep their color schemes

Why

We all know Gamefreak loves to change colors, people hated chestnaught for it

>>27319988
When it comes to starters rarely do they change their color scheme

>>27319988
They kept the dominate colors but also added other colors as well just like with the Chikorita line.

>>27318589

at this point, it's literally because the person who made it, assuming it's fake, hasn't revealed themselves

Atleast Ballio and friends ended up revealing himself, if he didn't, we wouldn't considered it possibly real still

>>27319256
>Drakid

>>27320081

Just to ask, how long did it take for Ballio's artist to come out and how long has this one been running?

>>27320156
I'm pretty sure this was out before or around the same time Ballio's was post but it was ignored until recently.

>>27320156
This set has been out since June

Ballio & co came out in June as well but were quickly debunked a few weeks later

>>27320202
>Before

That early? I only remember these being posted after Ballio's (not too long afterwards, but still with a considerable gap), I'm just unsure of the date. I think these image leaks' source is chinese (not talking about the chinese leak that came afterwards), which made me believe what's at fault here is either the Chinese translation theme or one chinese guy (or two, the Ballio artist just so happened to have a supposed friend who was the one who leaked Ballio & friends) just so happening to be rusing us all.

>>27320156
Ballio is from late May
Firecrotch is from mid-to-late june

>>27320320
>Firecrotch is from mid-to-late june

It's earlier than that. June 5th to be exact.

>>27320320
Are you sure? I am pretty sure I saw them around the same time.

>>27321853
I'm a different anon, but they were definitely earlier in June. They showed up maybe a week or two tops after Rapelio did. Can we please continue calling him Rapelio instead of Ballin? Please?

>>27322666
Why call him Ballio or Rapelio when the guy who created him calls it Pinnister. Why even keep trying to force memes about a confirmed fake Pokemon. I'm looking at you, "Sanslio".

On another note, my favorite thing is when people try to take credit for "faking" leaks that turned out to be true. Especially when the same guy leaked Greninja, Binacle, and Hawlucha, and then some other Anon claimed that he faked Greninja and Binacle, but not Hawlucha, because Hawlucha was the only one people actually liked at the time.
