They are just beta designs. Chill out vp and stop referring to

Sun and Moon are just beta for gen 8

>greninja was already planned for smash 4 before he even was called greninja

They look like reference art for the anime team. Would GF really send reference art to them with beta designs? Wouldn't it make more sense to wait to send reference art with finalized designs?

Animation takes awhile to make fyi. So these were finalized a while back.

>>27564770
GF wouldn't send beta art to the production studio for the anime, jackass.

they sent out designs so they can make a beta anime, dumbasses
you have to make an alpha and beta before you can move on to a final omega product, this is product development 101

>>27564966
Exactly. And if the intended designs don't seem to translate well through animation, then it gets sent back to the original artist to either make changes to the design or scrap it altogether.

I think these are the final designs BUT all Pokemon, and especially the starter's final evolutions would almost certainly need approval/input from TCPi, the anime etc so it's not impossible that the final designs would vary somewhat.

It doesn't prove they aren't the final product.

>Implying they'll change a Pokemon design just for the anime
That's final, deal with it, the anime is a side product of the Pokemon brand, they have nothing to say about any Pokemon designs

>>27565049
It doesn't prove that they are the final product either.
>b-but mallow--

Her design and character traits were most likely decided upon before these supposed final evolutions for the starters.

>>27564984
Dude I was being sarcastic, there is no such thing as a "beta anime". Designs that are sent off to be animated are final unless it's a pilot, which is definitely not the case for an anime that has been airing for the last 20 years.

Thanks for proving that anti-leakfags are genuinely this retarded, though.

>>27564770
We'll see

kek

>>27565089
Dude, Gamefreak said once that they design starters, their evolutions, and legendaries before ANYTHING else. These are probably final. Get over it.

They are the "real deal" if they're just beta designs you dumbfuck
