Why did everyone ignore the signs about these being real? Apparently there were even copyright notices about them on Google but we wasted months arguing over their validity.
I find it interesting that Incineroar's official art was different than the leaks, but the other two weren't
Most people were just in denial over Incineroar
>>29513004
Because people are retarded.
>>29513004
A lot of people started believing after Mallow got revealed, which was two months later. Before that there wasn't anything conclusive.
>>29513004
I was a denialfag because these ust seemed too humanoid to me. And because I was afraid of Incineroar's Fire/Fighting potential.
But it was actual denial, I was afraid of the truth but everything turned out better than expected. I think the leaks gave me time to subconsciously get ready.
>>29513058
Which made Mallow's reveal way funnier.
>>29513004
It was way too early. It never happened before any people were perfectly valid not believing them
>>29513004
So Which one will you choose /vp/?
>>29513475
All 3 ofc although I am struggling to decide if I should eviolite Dartix or not.
>>29513475
I was wanting to use Incineroar, but I love Ghost type so, would using both be awks?
>>29513475
You posted it.
>>29513004
I liked these designs from the beginning so I was always on the lookout for anything that pointed to them being real
>>29513931
If there weren't so many new mons I want to use, I'd use both. But I'm gonna go Litten in Sun and Rowlet in Moon.
>>29514269
Good choices friendo.
>>29513004
Before Mallow you had no reason at all to believe this
>>29513004
The anime is so high quality now they need these designs to start animating episodes 1 year in advance
I really hated litten3 at first because i was expecting more of an actual fire cat, but Incineroar has grown on me alot after seeing it in action. It may just be my favorite starter now, beating out typhlosion, serperior and swampert
>>29514347
The day they were first posted, all you found from searching them was 4chan and copyright claims. That's a HUGE reason to believe them.
Mallow getting confirmed just sealed the deal.
Mallow confirmed them and everyone who denied them after that is an obvious retard. I knew they were true for awhile like most sane people.
>>29513475
This is legitimately the first gen where I've like EVERY starter. They've all got good designs (though I'd soft reset like a motherfucker in order to get a female Popplio) and they all have fairly decent typings. Though if I was hard pressed I'd have to go with Incineroar simply because I'm a sucker for /woo/ memes
>Since I took care of Mr. Machamp so quickly, I came prepared. Hawlucha, you claim to be the Pokemon of 1,000 holds, but I counted, and you know about 4
>>29513475
Gonna go with the heel tiger
>>29513004
I knew it was true as soon as I saw what looked like a fire/fighting type. Was wrong about the typing, but was right nonetheless.
>>29513004
Showed friend the pictures and the video
Friend: "Its still fake! Until I see them in the game they are fake!"
>>29514998
Sounds like /vp/ and twitter
>>29514998
Your friend deserves a punch to the face.
>>29514998
Did you tell them it was from the official channel
>>29514517
People actually posted about them being taken down from image google searches in July but everyone thought they were just trolling.
>>29515153
Yeah
>>29513127
Perfection
>>29513127
>>29515401
Needs the denialfags' "Ash's SM hat is completely different" and "a football lemur is not a rugby monkey!" autism.
