HAPPENING

HA HA HA EAT A DICK SERENA FAGGOTS

There was a thread a couple weeks or so ago with someone claiming they had seen a promotional poster for the SM anime that had a Mudsdale pre-evo on it which sounded close to the one revealed today. Has anyone seen/saved it?

>>27463592
Greenshauna already won my heart

>coldsteel and exeggulong

XY confirmed for being the last pinnacle of the anime. Unless Ash somehow becomes the Brock/Tracey/Cilian of the region, SM will be another BW.

>>27463516
Is that even anime-related artwork, though? Multiple fully evolved starters together, only Ash and this game girl... it feels a lot more like general concept art than anything.

So even if Ash wins the league /padt/ will be gone to shit until they reveal actual information of the SM anime?

Well, the leaks pretty much confirm Ash wins the Kalos League.

Only because there aren't going to be gyms, maybe not even a "league" in Alola.

>>27463734

>>27463776
I'd question why the Chinese would have anime-related artwork that should be at OLM, but it is what it is. It's likely ideas drawn by Game Freak and affiliates about both the games and the anime.

>>27463784
Shitposters are already finding things to jump onto.

>>27463808
We don't know that. These "trial" things feel rather limited in scope, there could easily be gyms in addition to them.

>>27464022
Sun and moon companion confirmed
those three starter leaks confirmed
no gyms in alola confirmed.

Captcha: Select all images of Palm Trees.

>>27463932
Wasn't there concept artwork of Dewott and Ash prior to BW? Yet Dewott barely showed up in the anime.

>>27463839
>A brown girl replacing Serena
>yfw Iris returns

>>27463592
She's so cute. I wouldn't mind it at all if she became Ash's new companion.

So is Ash going to reset again? It doesn't seem like that Litten evolution listens.

Serena is not winning da Ash. That's a one less reason to live for.

>>27464087
That was an animator guide for BW4 specifically. Hence why it didn't even have Dent on it, since he wasn't in that episode.
All episodes have such guides, they're primarily to make the character's relative heights clear to everyone.

>Lunafags and Lilliefags just got fucking blown away

>>27464817
Lunafriends were comfy and humble and already said it didnt matter to them how the season turned out

those bitter passive aggressive Lilliecucks though yes, they did get B T F O hard

But what about the orange Ash Greninja shuriken, It wont be a Z-Move so what is it?

ASH IS GOING TO WIN THE LEAGUE, IM CALLING IT!

With the introduction of the new game it got me thinking, what if he wins and is sent to Aloha as they dont (currently according to the leaks which are now true) have an Elite 4 or 'league' He goes there and is told that its his duty to recruit people for an Aloha league. That way he has a new goal rather than ''Win a league''

I think this is a good way to repay the fans for being cucked so many years and also doesnt take from the ''pokemon master'' dream.

File: 1468351702141.png (86KB, 400x438px) Image search: [Google]

86KB, 400x438px

So the no gyms on the next game mean that ash is winning this league? He wont have another chance

>>27464895
Just a stronger Water Shuriken.

>>27464804
>out as his third and last Pokémon!!

Wait the finals only have 3? I thought that was just for the prelims (haven't watched the RAWs here).

So no 6v6? That sucks.

>>27464749
It's specifically not anime concept art, so AT MOST GF decided to just randomly put Ash and Apron in there because it had already been decided she'd be part of the SM anime.

Or they just picked some characters at random.

>>27464890
>Lunafriends were comfy and humble
because spamming every thread with their pasta was being humble?

We Orange Islands now
>Variant Pokemon

>>27464582
That would be the tits.

Crystal Onix will be Rock/Steel type and Alola Steelix being pure Steel instead of Steel/Ground.

>>27464968
youre confusing lunafriends with the AshxLuna anti-amourshitposter

>>27463769
>Orange Islands shenanigans with a brown non-game MC companion
This could've been fun if they use new cast all together, instead of dragging Ash into it again.

>>27464949
Last of the episode, we already know 4 of his pokémon.

>>27464817
Not really. For all we know, she'd just be present for the first arc/island, and each successive arc gets a new companion, while SM/Lilie is permanent.

>>27464905
Alola sounds more like a vacation region than a league one.

>>27464545
Functionally the same. Fight a bunch of the island's top trainers to earn the right to challenge the island Kahuna. Rinse and repeat on 4 maybe 5 islands if the manmade one counts

Only change is you're battling a loose association of the toughest people on the island instead of an officially mandated qualification test

>>27464169
Jesus christ...

>>27464949
Adamant said
>Actually, since there's an intermission and field change after someone's third Pokemon has been defeated, it's probably just referring to that. Alan isn't going to send out a fourth mon in this half of the battle.

>Still a weird way of putting it, though.

So its confirmed Ash getting a Fire/Dark heel tiger
Hau gets Popplio and Mallow obviously has Rowlet

>>27464949
Adamant noted it's just strange/possibly erroneous wording. It seems to be referring to Alan's third Pokémon in the first half of the match alone. We've already seen screenshots of four of his Pokémon in the battle anyway.

>>27464804
>Fierce battle finally concludes
"Team Flare Will Interrupt the Battle Fags" BTFO

>>27464949
It's 6 on 6, the summary is just being weird.

>>27464895

I think the orange Ash Greninja Shuriken will be a Z move. It's the standard giant Shuriken throw that's just an anime version of the standard Shuriken attack.

>>27463592
Dayum, she's a cute.

How will Amourfags react if she ends up winning the Ash?

i hope they retcon the orange islands into alola

like after this ash just says "oh yeah i already won that shit, guess i'm leaving forever with waifu now"

>>27465043
>Ash Greninja is in the game
Will the BTFO on /vp/ ever end?

>>27464979
>orange islands extended for years

>>27465058
Nah. The image only shows Ash leaning over a Litten evo while Popplio and Rowlet are playing around it. It could just be a random evo that's sick while the Island Girl is looking after it and Ash runs in to her.

So will X Zard miraculously survive the Orange Giga Shuriken, similar to how Frieza somehow tanked a Spirit Bomb?

>>27465223
But I liked Orange Islands

>>27465241
Or just a concept art to show the design and how it works without much further implications.

>>27464220
I'd imagine that the canceled Team Plasma episode changed a lot of BW's story. Perhaps all of the starters were supposed to evolve, but only Tepig evolved since his development didn't take place in episodes that may have involved TP.

>>27464582
Blue shiny Onix looks majestic.

>>27465171
The issue with that is that Z Moves have been described as being one per type, and the water type one is not a souped-up Water Shuriken. Although those work with the bracelets and Perfect Zygarde's Core Enforcer seems to be a bullshit OP Z Move specific to it that requires no bracelet, so maybe certain legendary-level mons like Ash Greninja (assuming he's in the game as per the leak linked to here) will function like that.

>>27465223
if brock didn't leave OI would have been my favorite season.

As much as I love XY now I still miss him.

>>27465241
>>27465306
The starters are all joining the cast anyways regardless if you want them to or not, it's just a matter of who gets them and how many Ash gets.

>>27465202
No, it's /vp/'s fault for not being as humble as /a/ or any other board that knows of Ash's chance at winning the league. Can't wait for this fag board to be BTFO. /vp/ is only good for anime leaks and game leaks.

>>27465435

Ash won't be going with just her though.

We have at least one or two companions left to know of

The question is whether they'll keep doing 4-man or go back to 3-man, if 3-man it's bound to be a boy, but if 4-man it could be a boy and another girl, or a boy and another boy

>>27466039

Because GreninjAsh receives absurdal amounts of merchandise and screentime as an anime only gimmick.

Yeah, it's game concept art. Compare this...

>>27463750
>>27466447

>>27466454
Yes. But my actual point is that I'd assume that the anime producers and game producers have artists who go back and forth between mediums or work for both at once. So seeing ash in game concept is not really impossible. He is the secondary face of pokemon after all.

>>27466564

>>27466636
To this.

It's easy to tell the styles apart.

>>27466659
That's possibly true, more so that OLM staff goes to GameFreak, since the anime things are based on the games after all.

>>27466708
it gets a bit confusing because sometimes sugimori or another official artist does concepts or sketches of anime characters

pretty sure paul has a settei sheet somewhere where he basically looks exactly like Gen II's Silver

since Ash appears only in Litten's evo artwork can we assume that he will get Litten in Alola?

I mean, the trio of Sceptile - Greninja - Litten's evo would be pretty damn good

>>27466632
Lapras already showed up full-grown all the way back in Johto, anon. It's also similar to Pidgeot in that it has adult responsibilities to do now.

>>27466674
Ice Ninetails in Shuffle when?

>>27466708
>a final form facial character reference is the same as near-finalized concept art

wew

>>27466787
All the starters will join the cast, it's just a matter of who's getting who. He may get more than just Litten.

>>27466787
>can we assume that he will get Litten in Alola?
We can, but we could be wrong for reasons discussed thoroughly in the thread.

>>27466773
I was mostly referring to how the concept art is laid out. The anime art is always very clean and shows how the characters look from different angles and with different expressions, while the game concept art is more about showing off the feel of the character and tends to be full of dynamic poses and shit.

>>27466346
>>27466408
i skimmed the thread and couldn't find anyone posting proof that it's not anime artwork or from game freak

>Ash goes to Alola after being invited to the pokemon world tournament

No more than we can assume he gets any other random Pokemon.

i'm ready

let's take this all the way back to red/blue concept art, i'm ready for lapras' triumphant return

it can take a leaf out of flint's book and leave those other lapras to fend for themselves for a few years

>>27466615
> It sure looks that way.

This should have never been there in the first place. The original answer was much better.

>>27466636
>>27466708
the sun/moon leak doesn't look like either of those desu

also sugimori does character design for both the anime and games so who the fuck knows

>>27463838
Can't have more tanned guy or girl. Pale companion is needed. Like how misty countered brock and cilan countered isis.

>>27466863
It IS confirmed to be game artwork from Game Freak. It's not anime artwork.

>>27466937
No Lilliefags, you were BTFO, just let it go already.

>>27466863
The Pokémon are designed by GameFreak and the leaker was supposedly an employee that worked on stuff related to the games.

>>27466863
We can't tell either way, but Chinese having access to anime-specific artwork would be strange, especially since their leaks were about the games and not the anime.

>>27466933
the leak looks like hasty scribbles compared to either that sycamore concept or the paul settei sheet

>>27466937
So...

Serena?

>Hawaii region
>the female Trial Captains are relatively covered

>>27466933

Read the thread. Anime concept art and game concept art looks very different, and that's game concept art.

>>27467061
The age of Serena is over. The time of the Mallow has come.

So you need to fight 4 captains to qualify fighting 4 leaders. Isn't that just a roundabout way of retaining the gym challenge? Either that, or someone in the game production crew was a real fan of Orange Islands back when it aired.

>>27467055
yeah, i see that now. makes sense

it still looks a little different from sugimori's usual style but that could also be due to the low resolution of the picture

admittedly that's not confirmation so much as likely speculation

like i don't want to be a pedant but at the same time if ash shows up on an island with brown apron girl whoooops

>>27467179
Consider that even if they're final designs of the pokémon who knows when it was made, I don't think that was ever confirmed.

>>27467184
thats more like it

>>27466856
see
>>27466807

they're different type of use art altogether. The paul one is what you give the animators when they make the frames.
The prof one is what you use for the character designers who'd convert it to sprites or 3d.

>>27467213
Tbqh, it felt boring for a while. Just it being completely one sided

>>27467243
It's also because it's of a Pokemon instead of a human.

>>27467243

this seems likely to me even if it is game art. it's not like game freak and the creators of the anime don't know what each other are doing

Who here will watch the next Season? I will even if Ash gets reset mainly because NO FUCKING SERENA ANYMORE HOORAYYYY

Fucking KEEEEEEEK

> How will Amourshipping end?

A. Serena doesn't confess. Ash gives a vague "I'll see you again someday" promise and leaves.

B. Serena 'confesses' but Ash doesn't understand. Serena hopes Ash will one day come to realize her feelings.

C. Serena confesses and Ash reciprocates. Contestshipping ending repeat.

D. Serena confesses, but Ash admits he sees her as one of his friends. Friendzone ending.

E. Serena goes with Ash to Alola.

F. New protagonist is Ash and Serena's kid.

>why is everyone jumping to such different and extreme conclusions based on a thumbnail sketch
It's shitposters. They're going all out now with everything they can think of

You know, maybe Korrina being with the group for a bit is the writers testing how the group dynamic would work if the members have guest stars for every arc. Each island hop could have a new Captain as companion, with Ash getting a small group of rotating members, kinda like an actual RPG.

>>Ash will get reduced to his BW-self
Why? There hasn't been any evidence for this.

/padt/, I've been out for 13 days. What have I missed?

>>27468895
I would've understood had it been during BW, but now with XY it's hard to believe that people are so butthurt that with every new tidbit of information about the SM games /padt/ got more infested with shitposting.

A neat League battle. Other then that nothing.

Most likely to least likely.

everything

Leprechaun is back
Ash is gonna win
TF is gonna fuck some shit up
S&M fucked our shit up

what would this do to the movies I wonder

>NO FUCKING SERENA ANYMORE HOORAYYYY
I am glad as fuck, hopeless shipping ruined the latter part of XY. False hope is a weapon of mass destruction

>>27469236
The shitposters hate the anime in general and are just looking for random shit to spam about. It doesn't have anything to do with XY and SM in particular.

G. Bonnie wins the Ashbowl

>>27469181
If Ash is still the protagonist, regardless of anybody else, I'm not watching.

>>27469186
closest would be B, C or D but I can't see any of those three being Ash's response

he's not OS tier retarded anymore, C is highly unlikely. D is closest but I doubt Ash would be that dickish about it

>>27469186
I say F.

Isn't C incomplete anyway, like so what happens afterwards?

It's not people being butthurt about SM, it's people being butthurt about people enjoying the anime to the extent they actively look for things to shitpost about.
