    Been doing a Nuzlocke run on black 2 and using sawsbuck and i am impressed at how good he is. Mind i would prefer fewer trainers using pokemon with jump kick as it seems to be rather common.

    Saw the pictures from the new Japanese Magazine. Other than the pictures of the Box, that was kind of disappointing... Again.

    Are they trying to keep everything a secret until the game comes out?

    Like Volcanion's Fire/Water typing.

    You know Nintendo, they like to troll us. Like when they revealed Zygarde's alternate forms, hinting at Pokémon Z, then announcing that Sun/Moon will be the next games and leaving us wondering how the Hell we'll be able to access them in the games!

    Serebii states

    The first images from CoroCoro have leaked and have revealed that next month's issue of CoroCoro will provide a huge scoop on Pokémon Sun & Moon. It has text saying that you can't see the Pokémon in the box art yet. We'll bring more as it comes

    It's pretty normal for them to slowly reveal tiny bits of information up until the game's release, and leaving a few things to be revealed even after the games have been released. But I have to admit, I feel like they are going a lot slower with revealing new information for Sun/Moon than previous Generations... Hopefully CoroCoro's "huge scoop" in next months issue will finally give us some real news...

    With X and Y they at least revealed the starters, legendaries and name of the new region.

    we have had nothing since they announced it.

    I'm so goddamn thirsty for news man.

    Yeah, although X/Y was unique in that it revealed the cover legendaries and Starters along with the initial announcement of those games, they hadn't done that before. But that is why I said it feels like they're going a lot slower in revealing things this Generation. Hard to believe after almost 2 months since we first learned about Sun/Moon and we really haven't had any more news about it.

    This,


    I understand why we had so little, cause they were pretty much re-inventing the entire way they make their games, as well as Mega designs.

    But after two games, they should be quite use to making of them.

    As for Mega's, I'd prefer if they just focused on the rest of the starters. Or else it makes Kanto's and Hoenn's weirdly stick out

    As I've mentioned before, Mega's should of only ever been that for starter's first, then fill it with other pokemon, instead of being so random and unbalanced in choice when comparing them to all pokemon and not just within a specified generation.

    Well for starters, there's no starters. Second we're getting Gen 7 as stated by gamefreak, not 6.5, that's not happening.

    Black 2 White 2 was still gen 5, not 5.5. Johto is connected Kanto, yet even they have their own starters.

    If this was real as well, Pokebeach and even more so Serebii would have this one the site as news. I mean before Trevenant was even released they had fan drawings of him to put up as news, even the same for Zygarde.

    But hey, who knows the people who said this is fake might be wrong, unlikely, but might be wrong, we'll all know sooner or later next month
