Doesn't seem like we'll be finding out more through the leaker either way. He wasn't playing a review copy after all.

There's a few others out there putting stuff out too, not just him.

Not sure what to make of "incomplete ROM dump," though, I've never heard of such a thing. It seems like if you gently caress up a rip it should just not work at all. Maybe a dump of an unfinished build somehow?

Could have been a dump of an E3 build or something?

Mods just deleted the 4chan thread, for some reason, but it was from the same leaker from earlier. Someone probably saved the screenshots.

Pretty much, the guy is using the name Lurantis and is just going through the game normally, he hasn't posted anything on gengar because how could he even.

I don't know that I would call it confirmed, though. Toucannon is a pretty guessable name for a toucan pokemon.

That's not really surprising since most of these past VGC seasons has been semi slow bulky attackers.

Schooling form has pretty high stats aside from speed. And apparently it only wears off when Wishiwashi drops below 25%, so that's better than Defeatist, I guess?

They aren't great. It looks like its along Briavary's build, strong but not really fast or bulky enough to be worth it.

Also, important thing for starter-specific Z-moves: We get to see Incineroar's FINISHING COMBO

Depending on the backup method the in-game manual might not work.
An incomplete rom dump wouldn't run. The checksum and rom file system would be messed up.
Other options all seem unlikely too. Kiosk version, prototype, preview copy, anti-piracy effects, very elaborate and detailed hack of the demo?

Huh. Well that's less interesting than previous speculations, also cribbing on Palkia and Giratina's style. Wonder if they go with D/P remakes whether they'll do any more Ultra Beast stuff?

Nintendo stuff has always been weird with game leaks. Usually what someone does, if they want to put it out there and not risk their job, is to send it to a release group who brands it and takes credit. For some reason, this never happens with Nintendo games and people end up wanting the recognition for being the leaker.

Because they want to be the uncle who works at Nintendo

Smogon is already calling for it to be NU which seems harsh considering we don't know BST (we only have a guess), movepool, or any idea what's available. One dude is dead certain that Weavile will kill it and that's why it'll never be any good, but I don't remember if Weavile is even IN the Alola dex?? So it's probably irrelevant. Also it was never gonna have 126 base speed.

I'd say UU, definitely. Maybe Borderline with its' strong attacking stats.

lol, seriously?

Compare it to Trevanant or Gourgeist. Neither of whom are good, both having comparable stats, and have better abilities.

I like him and I'm going to use him, but UU is way too loving high for a slow and bulky Ghost/Grass unless it gets an absolutely killer HA. Like Speed Boost or 'make ghost attacks priority' or something.

absolutely anything
