>50 new Pokemon now revealed because of Corocoro
What does this mean for SM? Will we be getting a substantial dex count; or just another repeat of X and Y?
Leaks have already confirmed we're only getting 80 new Pokemon
>>29092774
wrong
>>29092786
We have two posts where a leaker mentions Silvadi or whatever Type: Null's evo's name is and says 80 new Pokemon. I'm on the can right now so I'll get the link in a sec, but we talked about it all day. Try to keep up.
Expect anywhere between 80 and 100.
>>29092774
>>29092852
So is that 80 before or after alola forms?
>>29092774
>>29092852
Gonna need a source once you're done with that shit. 80 is okay I guess, unless they reveal MORE Pokemon in which case we'd be left with such a low amount of new Pokemon to discover. That'd be really disappointing
>>29092910
Before, obviously, or else we literally would have the entire dex revealed atm
>>29092910
Not him, but before.
I think it's 80, including UBs, but not including mythicals like Magearna and the Alolan forms.
>>29092725
We also know that we're getting 1 more evolution for each starter, 2 evolutions for Pikipek and 3 island guardians. And we've seen Cutiefly's evolution. So that puts the count at 59 minimum.
>>29092922
Here you go, friend. Sorry to disappoint you--I'm pretty disappointed myself. I think all the designs so far have been 7/10 and up, and I wish we'd get at least 30 more.

You shouldn't be on fucking /vp/ if you really wanted a "sense of discovery" or whatever the fuck
>>29092910
>>29092936
>80 + around 20 Alola forms
I actually wouldn't mind this considering the Alola forms are a fresh and new take on old designs with cool abilities and unique Z-Moves

How do you expect me to trust this man?
>>29092910
I wouldn't be mad if there were 80-100 including Alola forms, because they're, in some cases at least, completely new typings, or at least additional typings, with new move pools, fresh new looks and potentially different/better stats. They're distinct enough that they seem like brand new pokemon to me while still having a bit of nostalgic advantage because they're new versions of old favorites.
XY didn't reveal *everything* post release unless I'm misremembering, so it's entirely possible that we'll have a handful of pokemon in the final game that haven't been officially revealed ahead of time, and I'm okay with that. The games come out next month, and there's no way they're going to reveal everything else before then. We still have final form starters, Alolan Persian and Muk, Pikipek's evolutions, potential evolutions for some existing new pokemon, the (unlikely) potential for cross-gen evos, or just brand new pokemon they didn't feel like hyping up pre-release.
Whichever way it goes, Sun/Moon looks amazing and I'm going to love playing them multiple times over, whether that includes another 30 new pokemon or not.

I'm just being honest. If you really wanted to be surprised in the games then you wouldn't be following the news and posting on /vp/.
>>29093007
first postseems more legitimate since it mentions the name, but doesn't mention anything else
The second post doesn't really say much though. Anyone with a braincell could've seen that Type: Null was going to drop the mask and the starter leaks were real. Just throwing "80 Pokemon" in there doesn't legitimize shit. If it was the same user it'd mean something, but as is it's just some shitter anon theorycrafting.
>>29093007
>first post shows its name and says nothing about pokemon count
>second post copies all of it and says 80 pokemon
>>29093206
I'll admit, I should have evacuated the hype train sooner. But the initial reveals and hype on this board got me really excited. But its not my fault that the final starter stages got leaked 6 MONTHS ahead of release.
>>29093314
Oh fuck
>>29093007
Yeah no this faggot is bulshitting
>>29092774
Only 80 new Pokémon?.
How disappointing.
>>29092910
Just think of alola forms like cross gen evos.
If you don't count evos/prevos for old pokemon then G/S only introduced 80 new pokemon and D/P only introduced around 70, even less if you don't count legendaries.
>>29093314
>post made on oct 1st copied post made on oct 3rd
yep, makes complete sense
>>29093007
You got the order wrong. 80 Pokemon post was first.
