If pokemon announces they'll patch the games and I see someone complaining that it's taking too long or future games are delayed I will be tossing bricks around.

And with dozens new more Rock-types introduced, you'll have no shortage of ammo!

Hmmm, actually aren't they technically copying and pasting the same models of pokemon in the overworld?

Uh...I sure hope not. It'd be like if you copied and pasted your avatar into your post every time you posted. They should just be calling the same asset.

Bisharp is my favorite Pokemon and I have one I trained from a mono-Dark type X Run that I'm REALLY close to. But I feel like it fits the aesthetic of the Galar Region perfectly, so I'm not too worried. It would still suck if it doesn't make the cut.

I really hope starters are allowed because I love my Incineroar from Sun and Samurott from Black 2. I also am kind of nervous for Pokemon like Porygon, Gothita, Solosis, Litwick, Elekid, Zorua, Absol, Scraggy, Sewaddle and Misdreavus (and a bunch others) because I love those lines and I'm not sure if they are popular enough to make it through :/
 
Due to the very large number of reports this thread is currently generating, and the vast amount of general rudeness that we're seeing we're going to be locking it for a little while to give everyone the chance to cool down.

For reference, if you'd like to voice your opinion on the Galar Pokedex situation, please do so in one of the three seperate available threads. Anything else, take a look around the forum for one that fits your need. If it doesn't exist, why not make the thread yourself?

Thank you.

Ruffoldrowlit had shown his concerns for the future of Pokemon, since for Gen 8, it's likely there's going to be nearly 200 new Pokemon, exceeding the number to 1000.

in an interview with Famitsu, Junichi Masuda that we exceeded the pokémon 1000 (including Pokemon shapes and new Pokémon included). This assumes that the new generation contains at least 70 new Pokémon according to our calculations

I just hope we have new pokemon that actually evolve. that was something that bugged me in Alola as many seemed incomplete.
 
The leak did have some errors within it such as Yamper's name and Scorbunny's Pure Fighting instead of Pure Fire...

So what makes us think that when referring to Opal being a Fairy Type Gym Leader is in fact a Dark Type Gym Leader?

It's just a theory, not something that I'm slamming my fist for as some immature person as some might mistake me for. Forgive the harsh tone, I'm just trying to describe the situation with words that only I know.
 
New Pokemon So far and my guess on evolution

Wooloo ->???
Gossifleur -> Eldegoss I think are complete but I would like another evolution to something similar to this (as it looks eerily similar)

Drednaw -> ???
Corviknight complete
Yamper -> ???
Impidimp ->??? -> ???
Unnamed Squirrel pokemon complete

The Dynamax Rumor does say Opal's gym is the first Fairy type gym, but we know this is a mistake because Valerie has the honor of being the first Fairy type Gym Leader.

Plus there are also other mistakes and errors found in the leak, such as Yamper's name and the pure Fighting Scorbunny evolution when it should be pure Fire.
 
I've watched both the Treehouse Live and the Water Gym Demo but I still haven't been able to see what the Pokemon Stats UI looks like. Has anyone managed to find an image or video that shows it?

It's the circled part of the image - when you press 'Y' to display changes in Pokemon stats (if you didn't understand what I was describing).

However, it is possible that the leaker simply forgot that Valerie existed, which is understandable, given how forgettable Kalos's Gym Leaders are.

The line makes me feel like it’s going to be 3 stage for some reason. I know ‘vibes’ are purely subjective and often irrational, but its giving me a similar-to-Tsareena vibe.
