I think one of the leaks said it would have a roster slightly higher than gen 1. I think. I'll have to find it.

EDIT: the '4 main leaks', the 4th leak says its larger than last gen, but not by much: http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1470156868724.jpg

Heres a 'leak' from /vp/. It's a list of the pokedex. Gives us something to talk about until Friday.

And a c+p thread on reddit if you don't want to venture to 4chan:

I hope that is true. That would mean 100 new pokemon, which I am ok with.

Someone on r/Pokemon came up with a good idea, there could possibily be Alolan forms for Eevolutions, but for now no actual Eeveeolutions.

I'm not sure how I would feel about that. My main concerns are that 1, they would only be temporary and 2 they would basically ensure that they would Never make a eeveelution of that type. Like if Flareon Alola form was a steel, or ground, they wouldn't make a brand new eeveelution that was steel or ground because they would just point to Alola Flareon.

Now, Barring my two concerns, and its a New, permanent form And it wont impact future eeveelutions, then I am ok with it.

My concern with Alolan Eevee's is that regular Eevee is already adapting to different energies and environments when it evolves.

True but they could come up with something like : due to the islands' XYZ, when Eevee evolves something modifies it and you get an Alola Eeveelution.

THey should replace all pokémon with eevaariations.

Well we do have enough types left to actually do cover the current 8 types used, with a few left over for later.

Coro Coro scans

http://serebii.net/news/2016/09-August-2016.shtml

Pretty much deconfirms the Alolan dex leak from a couple of days ago.

- - - Updated - - -

Alolan Fire/Ghost Marowak and Alolan Dark Meowth
Submarine Fish
Sandcastle Ground/Ghost
pre-evolution for Bewear

Also, first bits of the evil team of the games.

[Auxis]

Next months CoroCoro will have a poster showcasing Rockruffs secret evolution.

[Yunru]

Another ugly fish pokemon .

Also evil team look like pirates. Dark meowth seems a bit lazy. They could make him more feral or something.

Marowak typing is kinda ok. (the only 1 we got right now is litwick and evolutions)

[Auxis]

And sttarting from September 15th, a new manga will be released in CoroCoro Comics featuring a young trainer and his Rockruff as they travel around Alola.

[Deleted]

New ninetales and marowak look awesome. Maybe ice will get a slight buff as well, fingers crossed!

[Well]

I don't know what to think about the sandcastle pokemon. I kind of like it, but on the other hand... I don't know... a sandcastle? really?

Still better than a pile of garbage. Like the scan shows with Pikachu, maybe there will be traps in the sand sometimes.

Just need to wait for his "description" like Bewear or Mimikyu, will be something either sad or creepy (or both) like he disguises himself like a castle to play with children (or maybe to kidnap them mwahahahaha).

I DO like it, but it's just hard for me to imagine myself or even an anime character use it in a battle or it been found in the wild at all. Trubbish I can see, but this?

[FlemmMinis]

The new Marowak forme is fire/ghost? Called it!

Evil Team. NotLikeThis

[Ilir]

How does it confirm it ?

It proves its fake. On this supposed leak, it was said Bewear was a single stage pkm. We just learned he had a pre-evo.

EDIT : I CANT READ I AM SORRY

[Champagne Supernova]

That Marowak design is pretty cool. The Meowth though...kinda lazy compared to other forms. I bet the water trial captain has the Water Arcanine form, would make sense if the fire trial captain has Marowak.

[Deleted]

Sandcastle.... wut?

Not this again nintendo...

[Auxis]

Previous gens had their fair share of 'lazy' designs.

Grimer -> Muk = purple slime -> bigger purple slime.
Magneton is literally 3 Magnemites stuck together.
Electrode is a Voltorb flipped over.
Dugtrio is literally 3 Diglets stuck together.

Don't know why inanimate-object pokemon get such a bad rap. Banette? Never ever seen any hate towards it design wise. It's literally a possessed doll.
Sandcastlemon is likely ghost-possessed sand (given it's typing) that takes the form of a sandcastle. Same deal as Banette, only we don't know it's backstory.
