Hey everyone, staff have documented a list of banned content and subject matter that we feel are not consistent with site values, and don't make sense to host discussion of on Famiboards. This list (and the relevant reasoning per item) is viewable here.

Chest revealed: https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/chest-research/
The site also lists:
And doesn't provide any Pokedex information. So it seems like maybe the roaming form isn't catchable? And instead you collect the coins off it's back that they leave behind when they run away, and once you've collected enough maybe there's a chest where you can put the coins that will summon the Chest Form? So long as the coins aren't only in Go, this could be a fun little side mission.

Sounds like it. And roaming form is exclusive to Pokémon Go.
Which is just... Lame. I really hate Go exclusivity.
Game Freak: being dead is cool!
Sounds like the totem stickers / hidden Digletts / Musketeer footprints / Wisps of this generation. Collectibles, this time with a pokemon as reward for finding all of them.

If the Litwick line is in this game, half of my team is going to be Ghost types at this rate.
And Ceruledge who's very popular

I get how raids work but it’s the “running around” part that I don’t understand. Like…how does that work, and what makes it even worth doing?? What kind of interaction is there? And can everyone still make progress in their own games when playing with others like that?

I posted a few pics so far in the leak thread, for anyone who wants to look, go head over there!

At least this time, the chances of it getting inexplicably flagged as Mythical (I still have no idea why they did that to Meltan when you can spawn them at will), seem very low, as it's just an alternate form of something you can catch in game.
mythicals are just promotional pokemon. they're easy to get, but you have to get them out of the game, so that limits the number people who can get them, even if it's just 1%. gimmighoul roaming form may or may not be exclusive to Go though. the Hisuian Zoroark image explicitly mentioned it being transferred over, for example
The thing is that trading Pokémon with the Mythical flag has been heavily restricted since Gen 7, which makes some sense when these are only from Mystery Gifts or the occasional in-game event, but makes no sense at all when the entire gimmick is that you're supposed to catch them by the dozens in order to evolve them. The only other Pokémon considered Mythical that you have easy, intentional, repeatable access to is Phione, but at least that kinda makes sense on some level since the process of acquiring them requires a Manaphy. Meltan doesn't even require you to own another game now that Home can trigger it too.
Regardless, Gimmighoul roaming form will most likely transfer back over to SV once it's catchable in Go. No reason for it not to. Should even be breedable.

Yep, that one! I thought it was confirmed.

I just made this decision as well. I was just looking through the leak thread, and then started wondering when the last time I played a Pokemon game without knowing the entire dex already was. Now I'm craving the rush of discovering a new Pokémon in-game that I have absolutely no idea about.

From the official parts, it does tomorrow after the trailer. ^^
the only trailer left is the launch trailer and the western overview trailer, since that's already out in japan

I will stay strong, no leaks for me this time. Who's with me? Let's stay strong! Managing this week-and-a-half will be infinitely more satisfactory then leaking everything there is beforehand. Maybe we could even make a dedicated thread to keep each other strong.

Since I'm not getting this one so soon, gimme all the leaks!!!!

If course, did it with Sw/Sh and it worked out great.
Will tune in for tomorrow's trailer tho

It just re-dawned on me that we are a bit more than a week away from the first open world Pokémon game. Truly blessed timeline this.
I looked at all the leaks for SwSh, but that was because I was disappointed by what was being shown of the games and was hoping for something that could make it more exciting. I'm feeling better about these games pre-release, so not looking at leaks.

sonic and pokemon taking transformational steps just over a week apart from one another, whewwwww
Pokemon to have a worse internet reception (not actual sales reception).
bet
that's something I saw a lot of people say about Legends. folks were surprised by how much was hidden during pre-release for that game

Hope this will finally be answered in this trailer, because it’s still bugging me not knowing:

I don’t want to see any leak whatsoever, but I’m too curious about the trainer customization being restricted to uniforms only (as implied on the official site).
Of course anyone who might answer this here please put it in spoilers, though I’m not asking for many details about it (yes/no should do it actually!)

what do you mean restricted to uniforms? the character customization now extends to faces including eyeshape, eyelashes, etc
Yeah I remember the general opinion toward that game from more vocal crowds (that weren't only shitting on the graphics) changing a lot closer to release. I got spoiled on a couple things, but I was at least interested enough in it as something different with potential that I didn't bother actively looking at leaks.
