Because the trailer that revealed Megas would be back said "Relive" which implies nothing new

I mean, that's kinda fair. But even Ash-Greninja isn't in this model dump which is really weird since its in the demo.

And I guess Ash-Pikachu is a persistent out of battle form?

I don't know if it's that exactly, but I imagine the dataminers would have found the mega models if there were any to be found. Did they not find the OLD mega models? That might point towards new ones.

I'm pretty sure the models listed there are from team preview, and the battle models were scrubbed better. So any form that only appears in battle would not be found.

No, they didn't. They also didn't grab Ash-Greninja which is in the demo.

If there's new megas and stuff they'd be in the complete pokedex probably.

There are no new megas because they already confirmed that battlespot would not allow for mega evolutions during launch. The point of doing that is to further highlight new things, like z-moves and the new pokemon, so if there were new mega evolutions they would not have banned them.

Yeah, I just scanned through this. Definitely no new Megas in the regional Dex.

I don't know, isn't the point of a demo to give a taste of what the real game is like?

It's just a lot bigger of a taste than they were thinking they let out

They removed all text about the main game, the trainer data, dummied every pokemon entry with Pikachu data as well as almost every attack entry with Bounce data. They probably did a thorough and arduous job. Just someone forgot about the shinies and team preview like a dumbo.

I think pokemon may turn into ultra beasts too because the black sticky one looks just like Wimpod's evo.

I think so?

It might be dummied out Cell data.

Also some of those blanks could be for the Totem models. At least the one next to Yungoos and dancing Grass type match up, though there isn't one near Wishiwashi.

That would be weird, for them to be mostly based on important NPCs and then a seemingly random pokemon in the middle of the 'dex?

More likely there's some cool buff dude NPC we haven't met yet.

Also Ultra Beasts are not pokemon, they are eldritch horrors from beyond our dimension and take the form of our NPCs to mock us.

Question: when everyone was talking about the game struggling on older 3DS hardware, was that just when using 3D in battle? Does it still slow down if there's too many models during a battle even without 3D?

You no longer can turn on 3D in battle, even on the n3DS.

If wimpod 2 and this Ultra beast are totally unrelated, its kind of sad how uncreative they were that they couldnt prevent different dudes from looking nearly identical.

Probably, X/Y could chug like crazy without the 3D in battle and SuMo looks to have greater graphical fidelity.

There is no 3D in battles if the demo is any indication.

Don't insult my friend, Wimpervious.

I'm hopeful that the UBs aren't Pokémon and aren't catchable so we can have somewhat inflated stats and more drawn out battles since they wouldn't be expected to be used by the player. More like traditional RPG battles, where the enemy has a mountain of hitpoints in comparison to you.

Wimpod's evo doesn't have the claws reach its feet (neither does the Ultra Beast I guess since it's claws go past its feet). Also, doesn't have the tiny feet or blades protruding from it's arms. They do both have shoulder spikes though. I'll give you that.

Totem Pokemon will probably have something similar (maybe not the mountain of hitpoints thing), and they're still pokemon that have catchable forms.

Tall bipedal body, primarily green, a tail that flares out at the end, short and stubby arms with tiny claws and an undersized head. Which pokemon am I describing?
