Incredibly true. I guess that when there's a certain number of guesses, one of them might just be right. Speaking of rumors, what the hell ever happened to Pokémon Stars?

In other news, Bulbapedia is claiming Japan will be receiving the games sometime this winter. It's probably an error, but I'm trying to ask the admin who implemented that edit.

Sorry for the double-post, but someone posted this leak exactly one week before the official announcement. He's been right about the game titles and the region inspiration so far. Let's see if he gets the rest right. Also... I really want her to be a main character! SO KAWAII!

It's probably taken out of the Japanese Pokemon Direct, given how the American one said "Late 2019" and that's what the other regions say. I'd imagine they mean November or December 2019 when they say "winter", not March. Sorry for the double-post, but someone posted this leak exactly one week before the official announcement.

SO KAWAII!Somehow, I bet she's going to be Ash's traveling partner for the Gen 8 anime. And it shall be known as BrexitShipping.Seriously, considering the list hasn't been updated since the Obama administration, I'm not entirely sure what the plan is going to be for the flood of new names this generation will inevitably bring.

Thus the list hasn't been updated since the Obama administration. And lol I know there are official names for Ash with Lillie, Mallow and Lana. I was the guy who organized the polling for that on Serebii.

SM did start in 2016.

Also, there are actually a lot of named SM pairings that haven't been listed yet. Some of them are rather major, if I recall correctly. Not like top-20 major, but probably top-100.

Let's see if he gets the rest right. Also... I really want her to be a main character! SO KAWAII!Hmm... This actually has some validity to it, considering the Mewtwo movie coming out. I really wish they would stop giving every cool thing to Charizard and Mewtwo (considering they both already have two Megas each), but still, this is actually possible. Also, she is a main character. Of the games, I mean. XD The anime will be kind of dependent on what other characters will be revealed for these games. I mean, Hilda, Luna, and Leaf all got passed up just to have some gym leader girl be used (for better, or for worse in the case of Iris). I suppose it is possible and I would love to have her in the main cast. Oh, yeah, has anyone else noticed how much more expressive the player characters seem? There’s much less deadpan face this time around.

I suppose it is possible and I would love to have her in the main cast. There is a pattern, but I'm not really sure if knowing it would do us any good. Every single generation where the PC that isn't chosen by the player still has a significant role in the game, the female PC is traveling with Ash. Likewise, if the PC that isn't chosen doesn't have a significant appearance, Ash travels with a gym leader or the trial captains. Of course, this doesn't really help much, because by the time the games are out, the anime would already be announced and likely set to air within a week.

That actually explains a lot. Well, we don’t know anything just yet, so we’ll just have to wait and see. Also, I just realized the Pokémon Adventures manga will likely name these characters Sword and Shield. That is hilarious. XD

So looking closer at the map of the Galar region (I keep on almost typing Galah when typing that. XD) I come to the conclusion that it's not just based off of the UK. It's the UK but upside down. Looks that way. I can even make out certain landmarks that I'm familiar with. Which is...an odd feeling. Looks like Ireland wasn't invited though. Good.I just realized that you technically have a home region. Too bad you now live in a region that doesn’t currently exist. XD Sadly, it’s the same for many of us. DXAlso, I have to say I really like this region thus far. I like the whole idea of it being an industrial region, and the aesthetics and sights just look so cool. Really looking forward to playing these games and coming up with a potential future arc for Fusion Warriors once I finally get a writing plan together.

Something I just realized, anyone who is opposed to hacking in Pokemon games should consider themselves pretty happy, because these games are going to be very hard to hack because of how the Switch manages save data. Granted, I can think of attacks and ways around it, but it wouldn't be anywhere close to as easy as before. A man-in-the-middle attack or a DNS attack or firmware data spoofing could work but it's doubtful it would last, and the only sure way I can think of would require two Switches, two copies of the game, and manually trading everything.

Pretty sure people have already figured out a bunch of ways to do it, considering they hacked the Let’s Go games pretty quick. It sounds like it’s definitely not as easy, but it’s still very much possible.
