Yeah, really the only things I can see coming out of the rumor post is new eeveelution (though not as retarded) and more global emphasis or whatever he called it.

Wow, they are hyping the shit out of this announcement. It might be more legit than I first thought.

It'd be cool if we could start up a chat for around the time of the announcement, preferably on something browser-based like livestream rather than AIM.

If 6am is the announcement, wouldn't the party have to begin no later than 5:30am if you want to give people one last chance to excitedly throw out theories and joke-theories before Iwata blabs? I definitely will not be able to make that meeting time. ^^; But those of you who can and will, have fun.

Holy shit, Iwata is going to be presenting the announcement? Well there you have it, Pokemon 3DS confirmed. Now the question remains, is it SunRuby/SeaSapphire or Gen 6?

still banking on Black and White 3

Since we're less than a day away from the Chotto Nintendo Direct about Pokemon, I thought I'd share this rumored info that came my way. The source would like to remain anonymous. What I can say is that this source has sent in Pokemon info in the past that turned out to be true. We'll see if they're spot-on this time!

The announcement is, more or less, a love letter to the franchise. It's being called Pokemon Rainbow, a 3DS game that encompasses the settings and Pokemon from generations 1-4: Red and Blue, Gold and Silver, Ruby and Sapphire, and Diamond and Pearl. You can take my word for it that the graphics are done up very nicely. The perspective is similar to what you'd expect from Pokemon games, but the camera is much more dynamic. The graphical style is characterized by very clean, dark lines. Almost cartoonish, but not quite. Battles look radically different, and move away from the use of pixel art. Though it seems that the interface is still made of pixels. The battle that it shown is between a totally new trainer and a wild Weedle. The trainer uses a Pikachu.

I'm not privy to any story details, as I only know what will be announced tomorrow. The story is concurrent with Pokemon Black 2 and Pokemon White 2 in terms of timeline. There are over 20 new Pokemon, and two will be revealed tomorrow. One is an evolution of an older Pokemon Eevee, called Draconeon. The other is a totally new Pokemon, called Verbill. It looks like a rodent, much like the Pokemon Patrat, but has a sort of pirate theme going on.

A Wii U app will be launched along with the game, which will be announced tomorrow. However, all that will be said is that the app will be addressed "at a later date". The logo for the app features a globe with Pikachu, Munna, Treeko, Cyndaquil, and Piplup popping out from various countries.
Pokemon Rainbow actually DOES make sense. Actually, a whole bunch of this makes sense. Then there wouldn't be a need for a Gen 3 remake, as it would essentially be included.

Holy shit. I'm trying very hard to not get hyped up for this considering it's probably bullshit.

I was almost buying it but then

>Draconeon

...eehhhhhhhhhhhh.

That aside it sounds pretty good, but as you said Deo, best not to get too hyped.

Also, http://www.pokemonrainbow.com/ does exist. Just sayin'.

And Draconeon isn't hard to believe at all. Next gen will almost certainly introduce a ghost and a dragon Eeveelution.

Very skeptical about this, but would e amazing if true. Also, pokemongrey.com existed too, so that's not legit evidence in my mind.

Is it owned by Nintendo though? This sounds a lot like Emp's rumor's claim. I doubt they'd do a "four regions in one" game.

While Draconeon fits the pattern in that it would complete a set of Eeveelutions whose STABs correlate to all the previously 'special' types, all of the current ones have adapted to environments or the thoughts of their trainer (or something fuck Espeon). Something adapting to its habitat by becoming a Dragon doesn't really add up (same for Ghost or Fighting) in my opinion.

But this is just my thoughts and I'm mental.

Interesting on the website, mind.

But it doesn't redirect to the Pokémon website like http://www.pokemondiamond.com/ does, which sort of discredits the theory if anything.
