    Yeah. It isn't rare at all. Everytime there is an announcement I log into my account ASAP and make sure the mailing list is checked.
    I don't know if it does something or is just a placebo on my part.

    One guy said he made 15 accounts and only got 1 code. He had issues in the past events so tried this. It's crazy how bad the system for emails is. Mine just doesn't send any emails anymore no matter how often I log in and reset my preferences.

    The only reason it is accepted as a Leopard is because of a quote from the creator.

    The beasts of Johto have cat, dog, and other inspirations in their design. Hence, why people call them Legendary Beasts.
    The argument of whether they were dog or cat based led to people deciding that they were Gerbils.

    And no, I am not making that up.

    So Pokemon just dropped a found footage style video today.



    It is teasing something new. Given we have seen Hisuian Growlithe and Kantonian Vulpix in the game, we know it isn't another one of those.
    Some guess it is Hisuian Arcanine (or Hisuian Growlithe's evo if not Arcanine), but doesn't make sense to confuse with the evolved forms of either.

    So it is likely a small pokemon that could be confused to Growlithe/Vulpix. Some are thinkin Zorua.

    What do you mean found footage, this looks exactly like the other Legends footage we've seen. Just as muddy anf grainy :P

    Well since Hisuian Pokémon are extinct in current era games, basing them off on (near) extinct animals from the area makes sense. Doubly so if it is not a regional form or evolution.

    Being exterminated during the Meiji Restoration fits the Legends timeframe perfectly, so I'd be surprised if there wasn't a Pokémon based on Hokkaido Wolf in the games.

    Wow, that was a quick confirmation. Hisuian Zorua confirmed alongside Zoroark today.

    They are a unique typing of Normal/Ghost.

    If you only played Gen 6-8 you'd automatically know that 7 and 8 are really, REALLY worse than Gen 4. Gen 6 is the bomb, and brought the best changes this franchise has ever seen

    Gen4 is the only generation I never finished. Mostly because it felt so slow and got bored after the 3rd badge

    Nice, I like this color scheme and Zoroark's design vs the older design. Kitsune all day.
    Thanks for the ad-hominem; it supports your inability to support your argument.

    Gen IV was definitely the slowest generation especially in DP where HP drained terribly slowly.

    If the rumor of new Starter forms isn't true, my starter is going to to Oshawott because of Zorua and Growlithe.

    Harrison's purpose in the Anime was to tease Hoenn and nothing else.
