    Pokemon Plus and Minus



    A large new rumor... the next generation 6 Pokemon games!

    A direct quote from Dual Pixels starts below this line. Article: http://dualpixels.com/2014/01/06/rum...es-plus-minus/

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A source that Dual Pixels has taken information from in the past, Geno, has claimed to have received information on the next Pokemon games. He claims that they will be dubbed “Pokemon Plus and Pokemon Minus” and has provided us with the following information. This comes from the same guy who leaked Castlevania: Mirrors of Fate being console bound, the Kingdom Hearts HD Remix, and countless information on E3. Not all of his rumors have come true. Despite this, a large amount of key ones have such as our leak about first and third party titles for E3 2013. Stay tuned as he has told us updates regarding this rumor are on the way.

    Please keep in mind this could all be true right now, but all of it could change tomorrow because that is how the gaming industry works. The reason that I put this up is because I see truth in this. Also the feature image above is not supposed to be a screenshot, its just concept art made by an Unreal Engine Developer.

    >GameFreak were one of the first development studios inside Nintendo to receive Alpha-Prototype hardware, now have been upgraded to the Beta-Prototype hardware above.

    >Have a few areas marked out, TONS of concept art traveling between Pokemon Company and Nintendo Co Ltd.

    >GameFreak plans to completely overhaul the basic systems of battle, simplifying the process.

    >The development team is “going to put a lot of ideas they have wanted to do for years in this game”.

    >Two versions already have code names, possibly final: Pokemon Plus and Pokemon Minus.

    >Theme is “Old Tradition VS New Exploration”

    >New region, no name yet, is based on South East Asia with one large peninsula and many smaller islands.

    >Three new starters with no names: Water evolves into Water/Steel and is a squat, teardrop shaped humanoid that has a jar filled with on its head as it evolves it grows taller and the jar bigger until it needs another set of arms to hold it on it’s head. Fire evolves into Fire/Fairy and is a tiny cute goat with fire blowing out of its horns, it’s horns and look evolves more menacing until it has curly ram like horns and a motorcycle hot-rod-like look. Grass evolves into a Grass/Electric and starts with a leap for a face with a nubby root as a body and evolves until it grows into an electric producing palm tree with each flower petal having a different face.

    >The main legendary for Pokemon Plus is a Shi Foo Lion-looking Psychic/Ground-type that has multiple faces, the Pokemon Minus legendary is a Ghost/Fairy type that has two dashes for eyes and is a hurricane-like appendages with many arms and hands.

    >More traditional Pokemon-like gameplay will be on the Handheld controller while an all new gameplay aspect will be on the Terminal unit.

    >The “Pokken Fighers” render that was teased was running on Alpha kits, Beta kits now have advance cell shading. Going for very detailed “living anime” look.

    >The new “Team” villains are described as a bunch of “Sohei Zelots”-types who have discovered the player’s best friend as a reincarnation of a special type of person who only is alive every 100 years. They believe the old system where people were given a Pokemon egg and they stick to that Pokemon until they die and who’s function in society dictate what role that person is. They are against the “modern” trend of Pokemon Trainers and capturing multiple Pokemon and are making a holy pilgrimage to evoke the old Legendaries to turn everything back to normal. They keep the player away from their friend, saying the special one (who can do amazing things like mega evolve Pokemon without the use of a mega ring) only love is that of Pokemon and not people. It is planned to be reveal later that for the special one to fulfill their role in society they must be mortally sacrificed to awaken the legendaries.

    >Routes connection the island together are water bridges but clumps of island are connected together by underwater tunnels.

    >There is a “Stone Slowking” statue that is a parody of the Reclining Buddha at Wat Pho, Thailand.

    >Many Pokemon from Hoenn and Sinnoh will make a return.

    >Variety of Pokemon Gyms, one is a mail system that only uses flying types and focuses on sky battles. One only uses baby Pokemon, one is implied to be a real vampire and uses Ghost and Dark Pokemon. There is also a military like leader who uses Fire and Steel Pokemon.

    >The island gameplay with Gym Leaders and the Elite Four island can be played entirely on the Handheld and can be blown up on the Terminal for home play.

    >New Pokemon Type similar to Shinies, no details yet on how they work but I’ve been told they “change the game significantly”.

    >The “Mainland” is an MMO-like environment that is exclusive to the Terminal and is shared by both versions.

    >Players all over the world online can chat, trade, intermingle and experience new-updated story lines on the mainland.

    >Pokemon Band is a new mechanic introduced to get people involved who do not battle, a co-operative experience where Pokemon dance and make music together to achieve the highest group score.

    >Pokemon Bank are actual locations on the Mainland and Handheld areas where people can import past Pokemon, mainly from Pokemon X and Pokemon Y into the new game.

    Yeah, so these games "X" and "Y" came out a few months ago, I know Gen 5 was the shortest on record (by a lot) but I highly doubt they'd start on cranking out a whole new generation with a whole new set of starters this early.

    The "Sohei Zelots" thing, from what I could make out of it, is also a wee bit of a stretch from the standard model they've had for approaching two decades, too. If anything, it sounds like a fan game.

    They're also definitely not going to be making a Pokémon MMO any day soon, because that makes the Dream World server load look like an empty parking lot and the target audience of Pokémon is a wee bit young for that anyway.

    And even without the leaker's dubious track record, I prefer to get this kind of news from more trusted sources.

    I wish/hope it is real.

    The dream world is dead anyway.

    I'd just like to point out that there is evidence of Game Freak designing Pokémon games way before they come out, such as Munchlax and Bonsly being revealed in the anime and Lucario being referenced Mystery Dungeon Red/Blue back in Gen 3.

    And the Sohei Zealot thing isn't that much of stretch, especially if you judge their goals.
    You had Aqua and Magma trying to add land/water to the planet, for almost no good reason.
    You had Galatic trying to recreate the universe.
    You had Plasma trying to steal all Pokémon, originally to "liberate" them.
    You had Flare trying to eliminate everything on the planet.
    These guys are trying to revert things back to the way they were probably centuries ago.
    So the trend is that these evil teams are just ****ing crazy. #Teamrocket #Prepare4trouble

    I just want to say this is probably fake, but it'll be cool if it isn't, especially the "Old Tradition vs. New Exploration" part.
    It makes me think of AC4BF X Pokémon X/Y

    Sure, they had Ho-oh appear way back in the first episode of anime and Marril not long after.

    But to have a detailed record of plot, starter designs, online framework, another type, and everything else listed in the article? To have that much completely finished (plus the completely modeled screenshot, if you remember anything from working on Dawn and Dusk you should remember that is not where they start designing video games) they would have had to start working on this a really long time ago: I'd estimate at least two years ago. And this is being described as a whole seventh generation, not a side series to X and Y.

    Also, basing the plot around a relatively unknown Eastern religion is a terrible idea from a marketing standpoint. Who here could honestly relate anything to that, compared to NYC and France?

    They started X and Y 3 years ago and I assume they are already thinking towards the future. Besides, a lot of things have been pointing towards gen "6.5". That could be this. Also, look at Hoopa the leaked legendary, that looks VERY much like it could be from an Asia-like place. Just saying.

    Reminder that BW and HGSS were developed at the same time.

    Still fake, though.
