Oh my fucking Zeus @ the Arceus event in HG/SS

PROTIP: Turn off audio, and just skip to the five minute mark; watch only to the end of the sequence.

This can't be real. I refuse to believe it. All those real life images. Hell, even the skyline from CSI Miami when they go YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHH is in there. This is the biggest acid trip I've seen in a video game, and I've played Earthbound. What the hell.

Before anyone calls it fake:

I remember there was a little clip from the event shown on Pokémon Sunday a few weeks back. Most people settled on the idea that the real-world footage was a place-holder and wouldn't be in the final version of the game.

I thought this needed its own thread to discuss its epikness.
 
Wow... guess we were wrong. Oh well. It still looks cool. You cannot deny that.
 
Wow. Just...

Anyway, why is this the first we're hearing of this?

It's actually not. I think the first we heard of it was on Sunday. We thought the pictures were jsut placeholders or something.
 
Does anyone know what the symbol beneath Arceus is during the clip show? The whole thing keeps reminding me of Fullmetal Alchemist when Ed is exposed to the truth.

Also is the clip show always the same no matter which legendary you choose?
 
Now thats cool I have to say...so its basically showing life the universe and everything? (Ok its not 42, lol, I mean space and signs of life) but still look better than things we got before, kinda shows they are thinking outside the box now.
 
It would be a cruel joke if a programmer put Goatse in there ):
 
Wha..Why hasn't anyone talked about this before? Other then the Pokemon Sunday.

So my theory that Pokemon is set in an alternate world, where everything we have exists is correct..

or maybe this is a view into our world...

And to answer the question, I think we all thought it was a hoax.
 
I was blown away when I first saw it; I totally did not expect photos to show up in a Pokemon game. It gave off a bit of a Neon Genesis Evangelion feel to me.

I really doubt the Pokeworld only has a few regions, and a bunch of water. So, it's probably my theory, or something similar to it. Why would Arceus be looking into our world, instead of its when it was going through time?

But, that did give me an Evangelion "Look into an alternate universe" sort of feel.
 
REAL WORLD FOR 5TH GEN!!!




It *could* be "real" photos of the Pokemon World since the Pokemon World is based off of the Real World, which we all know that they are simply just images from the interwebs.

This wouldn't be the first time the Fourth Wall has been broken in Pokemon though, GameFreak appears in every game of the series.

Did anyone lol at the "EPICNESS" of it all... with a chibi-Arceus sprite in the middle of everything?

I did and I still don't understand what all the fuss is about besides having a nice video sequence in pokemon for once

Because they're real photos of the real world, and we're pondering it's hidden meaning.

Does anyone know how to capture video on a PC, I might get an emulator running so we can have HQ footage of that.
 
No Pokemon live in a mirror world from ours. Their globe is upside from ours.
 
I guess next gen they're going to have to convert our world into the pokémon world. That'll top HG/SS. They could call it the Pokémon Real Life Project.
