POKEMON GEN 6 ANNOUNCED

[Garamonde]

how could they possibly make what appears to be a fake 3D model of it to exactly match the style overtop a clean background.
not to mention the art looks official as hell.

Seeing as how Pokemon is such a popular franchise and the recent artwork is done in one certain style, it's not too farfetch'd to say that someone who can draw well can copy his style. It's hard to tell anything about the 3D model considering its such low resolution, and it could easily be a sprite. There are lots of people who spend time making fakes like these.

However the Japanese is completely awkward, and if any new Gen 6 pokemon were to be released, there would be a lot more coverage on it by the bigger pokemon sites

Has anyone also paused to consider how unlikely it would be that Nintendo would release a random new evolution for an old and only moderately popular pokemon separately from all of the rest of the pokemon? Or why a Psychic/Ice type would have a purple background instead of light blue or pink? And I still stand by my original opinion on the gems, although they would work for a Psychic/Ice type, Jynx has never had them before, so them appearing on her third form would make very little sense, and also the thing I said about her weight loss still stands and I don't think anyone even addressed that at all.

Wait a minute.

A magazine had some grammar trouble, so everything is fake?

Is that really what we're going with?

Considering the amount of discussion being generated here, at a non-Pokecentric site, I'd say the buzz publicity makes it not at all unlikely.

Nobody addressed the weight loss because a salamander becomes a dragon, a melted icecream cone becomes a mime, and a malformed purple penguin becomes Jynx. The evolution here, this Frostitute, hardly constitutes any kind of dramatic change at all, really. It's actually an extremely tame shift in design compared to a lot of previous evolutions. Including those which were created back during the first generation.

[Zadaben]

Well, you have stated your opinion and I have stated mine, and I don't believe either of us will be able to persuade the other, and everything is speculation at this point anyhow, so I guess we shall wait and see.

I've been looking at some Japanese Pokemon fan sites and there pretty much no mention of this.

Yes, article below:

Also, seeing as how we're not supposed to be getting another Corrocorro for a good few weeks, and I don't believe they leak anymore

[ranfan]

well this would make rule 34 a lot easier

[DioShiba]

well this would make rule 34 a lot easier

What does this have to do with anything at all?

[Gors]

I am still laughing at diog's post, if anything Nintendo should officialize this so we can continue making Oprah->Beyoncé jokes

[Garamonde]

dang. why is it that the Fakemon look better than the official ones sometimes?

Who knows, but all I can say is it's kind of a disappointment.

(Although I would have to be honest and say that even if there is a bit of grammar trouble I think we all need to realize that a lot of magazines have those. I'm not sure how abundant the grammar issues are though but I'm just going to go with it)

[Koopaul]

I only believe it until Serebii.net or Bulbapedia reports on it.

Am I the only one who really dislikes the design of this?

Also I'm pretty sure this is fake--it just doesn't seeeeeeem like Sugimori's work, not to mention the magazine design seems off compared to the usually cluttered-with-images Japanese prints(I know it's not a good reason but I just have a feeling this isn't legit)

I also disliked it right off the bat, it doesn't even look like an evolved Jynx, just a redesigned Jynx.
