So, does that mean it’s in the 80-90 range?

Apparently he said not 135, which means nowhere near 130-150. I hate this. Didn't say 2 or 4 though so still holding out hope for at least 100, though I just want 95 for a perfect 1000.So, does that mean it’s in the 80-90 range?
The only other thing I'd be happy with is 94, cause we'd reach 999 and Gen X would start with 1000.I want less than 95 so I wont be eternally annoyed in us reaching Pokémon 1000 just short of generation 10
Yeah. Apparently it's just a compilation of rumors written with a dramatic flair anyway. I'd love to strangle the guy who thought doing that and letting it freely spread as "leak" was a good idea.Does this mean I can finally throw out that "uncle" leak?

Glad to see Khu debunking both Eclipse and the "Uncle's" BS numbers.
Ah, yes, bring back whoever did the PL:A "but not as you know it" commercials! (Although I think those came out post-release.)Game Freak needs a better PR department.
Or at least one of those weird commercials from the 90s.
Sneasel was actually intended to be a weasel at the start! It's based on the kamaitachi legend, and its original design was much more weasel-like:To be fair I sort of suspect based off a few things (it's Japanese name and getting paired with Meowth several times in the anime) that Sneasel is meant to be feline and the english version's name changed it to a weasel instead.
We had both Dragon cover legendaries and pseudo-legendary in Gen 4 and 5, so it’s not really an indication of what kind of pseudo we’ll get.So considering Koraidon and Miraidon are Both Dragon Types
This makes me wonder about the Pseudo Legendary of the Gen.
Will that be another Dragon Type? Or something else to contrast from the Box Legends?
Foxes are in the same family tree as Dogs lol
And Gamefreak DID put Cyndaquil in the same image as all the other Mouse Pokémon 2020's Year of the Rat/Mouse

I agree that it is very shaky but I can see where the theory comes from
Amusingly enough, I didn't start taking it seriously until Scorbunny came along lol
(I was like: Wait? A Rabbit? Were the Zodiac theorists on to something???)
And 1 Generation later Fuecoco comes along and destroys it entirely lol
Being on a Rat/Mouse year artwork does mean that the Pokemon is somehow considered to be a mouse or similar enough to be considered one.So... my main guess is that Sandshrew and Cyndaquil are only there because of their Pokedex classification as a mouse Pokemon, since if all the Mouse/Rodent Pokemon are on here, then i guess Emolga, Pachirisu and Dedenne ain't rodents/mouse Pokemon lol.
Isn't Rayquaza already inspired by Quatzalcoatl? It lacks the feathers but otherwise they are very similar. Not to mention we already have plenty of other Pokémon based on Pre-Colmubian societies like Sigilyph, the Natu line and even Mudbray in a way. I don't know to what extent GF takes the irl history of the countries they base their region on. I mean, they put the Indian elephant Pokémon Copperajah in British inspired Galar.[*Insert all the people who said Fuecoco couldn't become a Quetzalcoatl because it would be "insensitive" to use a figure from Pre-Columbian society in a Spanish Region*]
I wouldn't rule out other Pokémon based on Pre-Columbian cultures in the new region.Bulbapedia said:Given Asia's history with Britain and the use of captive elephants as working animals, Copperajah may be based on an Indian elephant with the digging bucket of a backhoe for a trunk. It may also be inspired by elephant statues often made of copper or bronze, which are common in Indian art and Thai art.
Cyndaquill's JPN name is literally a play on "Fire Porcupine", the PokéDex listing it as a mouse is likely a case of a pun lost in translation since there are various classifications of the Rodentia genus (which porcupines are part of) such as Jinezumi and Togarinezumi (with Nezumi on its own meaning "mouse"). Besides, even if you think that's too much of a stretch, using the PokéDex is self-defeating since the Fennekin line is classified as the "Fox" Pokémon throughout and not "Dog" like your logic would suggest.
A similar thing happens with Quagsire's category of "Water Fish."
The Japanese word for salamander is sanshō̄o- it comes from sanshō ("japanese pepper") and uo ("fish").
Obviously Quagsire is not in any way a fish. It's a salamander.
