Is there a reason all leaks show already announced Pokemon?

Yes. Most early Pokemon (and their evolutions) have been shown.

Ta-da.

I solved the mystery.

He's still really early game.

And there's at least one that was only semi-confirmed and not announced officially yet.

 

[Mastamind]

Maybe they decided to announce pokemon that could be found early in the game. Or if you dont like that answer we can say conspiracy.

It seems that's all there is at the beginning, he's shown us his PokeDex, and he's not hiding anything...he really hasn't encountered a lot of new ones.

Anyway, seems on /vp/ they figured out the store the Canadian dude got it from...so, we should hopefully have lots of people playing soon to help spread out the info and look for different Pokemon.

 

[GamerSoul]

He better not start doing that.

So the guy who managed to get the game early turns out to be an opportunists. Makes sense.

 

[JStein0222]

Hmm I thought it would just be me but it looks like a lot of people just want to see those final evos before closing the door on all the spoilers.
99% sure I'm choosing Chespin no matter what though. Not choosing the water starter because I am definitely choosing Squirtle (throwback to that first pokemon goodness) and I never pick the fire starter (mostly lame designs in my opinion, not a fan of Fennekin so far either)

 

[ramyeon]

I like how people expect him to grind to show the final evo of Chespin quickly yet also expect new pics/leaks from him every 5 minutes.

well obviously he should grind to final evolution in 5 minutes!

Doesn't really take that much time to take a picture and upload it to instagram

 

[ramyeon]

I dunno about you but I don't usually see much interesting stuff when I'm grinding.

 

[PorygonVandal]

It does when you have freaking Pokemon 11 days early

 

[Charles Foster Kane]

Whatevs, nvm.

 

[Dr. Malik]

I dunno about you but I don't usually see much interesting stuff when I'm grinding.

I just want to know what level his Chespin2 is at now

 

[DaBoss]

There is a guy on VP posting under kosthedin, most likely fake (99.9999999999% sure it's not him), but he says that he wants more followers for the next pic.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Christ some of you are unreasonable.

It's his game! Let him play how he wants.

 

[XaeonBE]

This is sad news. To be honest I would understand if f this is Nintendo first and last worldwide release.

 

[ArchedThunder]

This is sad news. To be honest I would understand if f this is Nintendo first and last worldwide release.

It isn't Nintendo's first and it won't be their last.

 

[meijiko]

It isn't Nintendo's first and it won't be their last.

Probably meant pokemon specifically.

 

[ramyeon]

Probably meant pokemon specifically.

I sincerely doubt they would choose not to do a worldwide release again because of this.

 

[ColtraineGF]

The world isn't gong to end because one guy in Canada bought and played a game 10 days early.

 

[Dryk]

Christ some of you are unreasonable.

It's his game! Let him play how he wants.

I would play the game at my own pace but upload more photos. Poor guy's experience is being ruined by the demands to grind out an evolution.

 

[DaBoss]

Almost at 7500 followers.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

7500 followers, man 10 days is too early, i would be more comfortable with this if it was 5 days early

 

[ColtraineGF]

Would be funny if it had nothing to do with follower count at all and it was just a coincidence.

 

[Artemisia]

 

[SloaneRisette]

7500 followers, man 10 days is too early, i would me more comfortable with this if it was 5 days early

It's nuts.

C'mon Nintendo, just put it up on the eShop early... ;_;

 

[DaBoss]

Well its starting to look like it I guess.

 

[BriseFlots]

I wonder how much time left before Nintendo sues him or the shop where he got it.

 

[Sandfox]

So now its 9/19 now and we aren't even sure if he has his second badge yet.

 

[Santiako]

I wonder how much time left before Nintendo sues him or the shop where he got it.

Nintendo can't do anything to him, he bought the game legally and is not bound by a nda or anything.

 

[TrickRoom]

Nintendo can't do anything to him, he bought the game legally and is not bound by a nda or anything.

It'll probably be the shop, then.

 

[Frost_Ace]

Still no final evos? *disappointed*

 

[Dartastic]

Why can't this game just be out already ughgghghhh

 

[hort]

So now its 9/19 now and we aren't even sure if he has his second badge yet.

You keep saying numbers but I can't for the life of me figure out what they mean

 

[BriseFlots]

Not him then. But I'll bet they are gonna track down the store where he bought it.

 

[ivysaur12]

I told myself I wasn't going to look at the leaks until I have the game and can play it first hand.

Then I saw the Espurr picture.

I CAN'T HANDLE IT. I NEED IT NOW.

 

[Kiryu]

What will you do if Kosthedin (he's sleeping now) couldn't show the Chespin final evo the next morning because... Nintendo Ninjas just made a deal (bribe with unannounced Nintendo game) with him to not spoil any leaks.

:O

 

[HawthorneKitty]

The weirdest thing I tend to do is bumrush the game on release so my trainer card says I beat the Elite 4 on the day of release. Well, I guess I don't really rush it since I beat everyone I see... I guess it eats up my whole day... and that's normal.

 

[Sandfox]

Wild pokemon lines that have already been revealed.

 

[hort]

Wild pokemon lines that have already been revealed.

Ahh, figured it might be something like that but wasn't sure

 

[DaBoss]

Once it hits 8000 followers, I'm done for the day. Though seriously, today it has been amazing regarding video game news and GAF has been going haywire.

 

[Monado Blade]

Huh. So Exp. Share is a Key Item now? Interesting.

 

[Glass Rebel]

where are mah final evos?!

 

[ramyeon]

The guy's probably wrapped up for the night. The Snorlax pic was supposed to be the last anyway.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Exactly how does polish stop the series from feeling samey?

Because polish makes it really good.

Hell, just off the beginning, the mons of BW2 showed the most diverse, spread out Pokemon unlike the older gens.

 

[SoulUnison]

It's nuts.

C'mon Nintendo, just put it up on the eShop early... ;_;

I was really hoping that would be part of the Nintendo Direct - that X&Y would be on the eShop early like Wind Waker HD.

It was an impossible dream.

 

[Zalman]

I can't decide whether I want to spoil myself or not. I'd like to know more about the version differences, but not much more.

 

[Hedge]

God I'm so excited for leaaakkksss~

 

[jokkir]

Off topic but I'm doing a playthrough of Pokemon White before the X/Y release. Who's the best starter? I think I might be leaning towards the pig for fire tradition.

 

[Apath]

Sorry if this gets asked non-stop: do we know all 3 of the starters' final evolutions?
