The football theme kinda sucks imo. The UK has such rich history like the holy island of Lindisfarne, the haunted Shambles of York and the mythical Tintagel and yet they opt for fuckin football. Really? :/ As a Brit, very disappointing.

Having football themed gym battles doesn't remove other themes and settings from the game (of which we haven't seen all that much of). Usually Gym/Kahuna battle locales were pretty generic in comparison.

I like how this fake leak just assumes there will be exactly zero new characters that haven't been revealed yet lol

Yeah, calling fake. Will be ridiculous if the towns are all football-inspired, which would mean the region was created after the game. What is the significance of the region name Galar even?

Oh lord, must we treat everything posted on anonymous boards as possible?

I feel we've has an abnormal amount of real leaks for this game compared to other pokemon gen cycles where we get a lot of fake rumors.

This one may be fake, but we'll just have to wait and see till we know more as per usual with any rumor.

Even ignoring that it's 4chan for a second, it seems highly suspect that Zacian/Zamazenta wouldn't have their own separate theme from the normal legendaries.

Also, if Looker appears, I half-expect them to reuse his XY theme like SM did lol. Since the music went from sequenced to streamed, they don't need to redo older themes for them to work in newer games. A good example is the mirage spot/ultra wormhole legendaries.

Legendaries have had completely unique themes before, take HGSS for example where both Lugia and Ho-oh had their own battle theme.
EDIT: I can't read.

I mean its something new in twrms of creativity, so you gotta give em that.

There is actually 1 new character below Looker, but yeah it suspect. Like I said the overworld music has lots of holes, like:
-No starting Town Forest
-Only One Cave Music when there are 2 caves hidden on the map.
-No giant Wall behind Dragon City Music
-Only Two Rotom Bike functions when we know there are likely more.

Yeah that's what I'm saying. You would expect it to be "Battle! (Zacian/Zamazenta)" and "Battle! (Legendary)" instead of just the latter.

Isn't the only confirmed leak the very first one? As far as know we didn't get any other

Biggest eyebrow raiser over the last couple of pages isn't the CD rumor but that there are people who still deny that Charjabug is a traincar/bus. Very upset by this.

I get the feeling that Charjabug is the most popular middle-staged Pokémon.

There's a rumour going around on 4chan regarding the 24 Hour Broadcast:

"I am one of the handful responsible for writing the "script" of the upcoming Glimwood Tangle 24hr livestream. I write script in quotes because we're actually a part of the accessibility team, and are transcribing the video to supply an accurate set of captions. The team I am a part of was only supplied with the source files the same day as the stream was revealed. Due to the strict accuracy requirements from TPC marketing department and the sheer size of the stream, we've broken the feed into quarters.

It's my job to transcribe 0600-1200 of the livestream. I haven't watched all 6 hours straight, but I've scrubbed through to look for highlights. Beyond captioning Pokémon cries and environmental noises, there are also short interactions with Sonia shortly after each new Pokemon is revealed. Here's what I have so far:

-a Breloom and some shroomish walking slowly
-jigglypuff floating between tree branches and singing
-morellull constantly moving around back and forth
-kricketune comes out of a bush and plays a melody
-every so often the ground shakes and bushes rustle
-nidoran male cry followed by nidoran female cry
-more bush rustling
-two galarian nidoran male and female emerge from bush and play energetically.
-Sonia talks to us about the two forms
-they run off as nidorino and nidorina cries play
-more bush rustling
-one of each galarian form emerge from opposite sides of screen
-Sonia comes back and talks more
-The screen shakes, and all Pokémon scatter.

-A small bird Pokémon we haven't seen before flies quickly out of tree and off-screen. It was orange and blueish?
-galarian nidoqueen and nidoking appear and roar
-they eat some berries and take nap on screen
-nidoking snores
-mist forms
-they wake up and leave from opposite side they came in

That's all the content i had. Keep in mind there is anywhere from 2 minutes to 30 minutes between these events. The Sonia screens are kept up for around 5 minutes each.

The galarian nidorans look pretty similar to kanto variants. Both inner ears are slightly darker. Male has two horns instead of one, and is slightly more red in color. Female is an even paler blue, and has a small tiara of horns. Nidorino is a slightly darker shade of the color galarian nidoran is. It has two rows of spikes on its back instead of one and the ones on its head get longer. Nidorina's tiara gets slightly bigger and her belly is slightly darker than her body. Nidoking has a large spike on either side of his tail, like a "T", and spikes on his shoulders. Everything else grows like normal. Nidoqueen tiara is shortish and has small bracelets of spikes. Their belly's are both darker than normal. Sonia explains they are Fairy/Ground type and have the choice between new abilities Friend Guard, which reduces damage done to allies, and Pedigree, which boosts damage done by moves learned from its parents.

Today at work I'll ask the others what they had on their portions. I'm curious if my section had more or less content than the others. I'll come back after work and post more after they tell me."

This is... a bit underwhelming if it's true. Galarian forms for yet another Kanto Pokémon (I'm so sick of Kanto, please stop) and a bird.

Hopefully there will be more.

That sounds pretty neat. Very detailed for something that will be easily debunked very quickly into the stream, so I'm gonna lean towards real for now.

Not happy about yet more gen 1 regional forms but these at least sound interesting. the king and queen theme being exaggerated is fun, and the pedigree ability could be interesting

He does state though that Sonia gives info on each new pokemon shown but doesnt comment on the new bird pokemon? That's odd unless it's just a teaser for the bird to be officially revealed later

I am pretty sure he stated that this is not everything and he just knows a bit of the 24 hour live stream

What the person is describing according to him is only a bit of the live stream

Unless this dude clearly wants to lose his job, this is fake. No one would clearly explain who he is like that when leaking something.

Considering that what he is describing is 6 hours at most. Then it's likely it could be revealed later in the stream

I mean Affleck Leak pretty much did that, mind you he was angry

Fake AF. I don't understand why people go through so much effort to make up such boring leaks lol
