Thanks goes to Xous for the beautiful new banner! Famitsu magazine has revealed the next several episode titles, some of which have already been revealed over the past few weeks, and two which have not. Can you guess why we're posting this story? Thanks goes to DorianBlack for the translations!
It should be noted that Ash may only be reliving his memories of his Butterfree in the episode rather than actually meeting up with it. Nevertheless, this will be one of a few times since Bye Bye Butterfree that Ash's Butterfree has been acknowledged in the narrative (Ash remembered it in a couple of flashbacks before and it has appeared in one opening). | ||

This is the last Pokemon X and Y "insider" information we have to post. Note that like all of the other information we have posted, please take it with a grain of salt (what does that expression even mean?). We have no way of knowing how much of it is real until Pokemon confirms or denies each individual item. So again, please take all of the information here as unconfirmed and rumor until we hear something official. Later today Pokemon Smash will air. While most expect it will just be a rehash of what CoroCoro had, you never know if they might reveal something more since Junichi Masuda will be on the show. We'll see soon, so be sure to check back!
Again, some or all of this information could be fake and should be taken as rumor until Pokemon validates it or not. To discuss these unconfirmed rumors, feel free to check out this thread on our forums! | ||

I won't be releasing additional X/Y leaks for the time being. The name of August's English set will be Plasma Blast. The set will more than likely feature the cards from Megalo Cannon and its associated "Blastoise + Kyurem-EX Combo Deck." No other information is known about the set at this time. | ||

Update (Friday) - Added Tornadus-EX below, which will be the promo card you get for buying a box of the set. Like the others it is a reprint. As we reported last month, Japan's July set will be named EX Battle Boost. It will be compromised of reprinted cards from the Black and White era, and as you can see below, most of the reprinted cards will feature new artwork. While the set's initial information wasn't clear as to how many of the cards would be reprints, a press release now states "some new cards are to be included as well." Thus, most of the set will be reprints, but some will be new. The Tepig and Pignite card artwork is super clever. I don't think we've ever gotten artwork like that before. | ||

The official Pokemon X and Y website has updated, revealing the four Pokemon from CoroCoro, their names, other name localizations, various artwork and screenshots, and a trailer with new footage. A full press release is also below.

It is likely that Pokemon is either going to reveal the English names of the Pokemon that were revealed in CoroCoro tomorrow when the magazine is officially released in Japan or on Saturday after Pokemon Smash airs. Since that's probably going to be the next big opportunity to see if any of the source's information is true, I thought I would post the English names he sent me right after CoroCoro leaked. Again, although in February he correctly described one of the new Electric-type moves that was revealed in CoroCoro this past weekend, we probably would all believe his information a little more if something more substantial could be verified. We'll find out soon!
Also, I realized yesterday that although Patrice is not named after a tree like Oak, Elm, Birch, Rowan, and Juniper, the name is pronounced as "Pah-treece." The "treece" sounds like "trees." So there you go? | ||

Update (Tuesday, 9:00 PM) - Oopsies, the secondary types of Chespin and Froakie's final evolutions should be switched. Post edited. | Update (10:30 PM) - We just noticed this, but the filename for Mewtwo's new forme on the official Pokemon movie website is http://www.pokemon-movie.jp/img/pokemon/long/info/infoM2x.png. M2X = Mewtwo X, so maybe there's a Mewtwo Y? Regular Mewtwo's filename is infoM2.png, so the "x" was obviously added on purpose for the form's filename. | Update (6:45 PM) - Oops, I forgot a little piece about the Fairy-type which has been added below. | If you want to comment on this news story or have any questions, feel free to post in this forum thread. Back in February we were contacted by an individual who claimed to have X and Y insider information. Of course, our standard policy is to immediately doubt anyone like this and ignore them. However, the person was able to present several facts about their first-party source that we were able to verify and, without going into too many details, no normal individual would have ever even known about the existence of said original source were they not initiated (although there was some scant information about it on the Internet that proved the source existed). While mostly convinced that this person was the real deal, we decided to not post any of their information until we could know for sure whether or not one piece of their information was real. Then in late April, Hiro, the guy who leaked several Black and White Pokemon before they were revealed, revealed that there would be a new type in X and Y called Fairy. That's funny, I thought. The source who contacted us back in February had also mentioned a new Fairy type. I resisted every urge to post the news that the February source had e-mailed us because, for all I knew, it was the same source giving information to Hiro and could still be fake. Plus, there was still nothing about their news that had been officially confirmed yet. While I tried to contact Hiro to ask him about his source, he never got back to me, and thus I was unable to figure out if his source was the same as mine or different altogether. Although the source did claim that they had only approached me, I still wanted to be cautious. Thus, I decided again to not post any of the info. Then this morning, CoroCoro finally gave us the first major X and Y details since the games were first announced. Among those details was one tiny little tidbit that the source had first told me about in February - that there would be a new Electric move that drains its opponent's HP. This was the only attack that the person had told me about in February, and yet it is such a specific detail to make up. For that information to be verified three months later seems to indicate that the source is the real deal (unless they are just really good at guessing). I want to emphasize that under the worst case scenario, I am still somehow, some way, being duped. It would not be the first time to tell you the truth, and all Pokemon webmasters have fallen for fake news before. Thus, I want everyone to take this news with a grain of salt until it is actually verified by Pokemon. If it is verified, then yay, we will be able to post other news this source has sent us since February and up until today. What you will see below is a sampling of some of the news the source has sent since February. TL;DR - The source seems to be genuine, but still take the information below with a grain of salt. We are classifying it as unconfirmed. Do not soil our beach sand with red liquid if it turns out to be fake. :p
The source has sent us a lot more information since then, including several English Pokemon names, but again, I'm not going to post any of it until something more substantial than an attack effect is verified. I don't want to look like a complete fool if all of this is fake. If Fairy type and anything else above comes to be true in the next few weeks, I'll put up the rest of the information. If all of this is fake, well, at least I didn't let a potential good source go to waste - at least I tried to deliver potentially real and substantial news. | ||

Sorry for the tardiness - the Internet was down in my area this morning! Later today I will be posting some X/Y news I've been holding on to for a while now, so be sure to check back! CoroCoro has leaked, revealing four new Pokemon, some new attacks, the region's name, and the game boxart. We may update this later or in the next few days if clearer scans reveal more new information. Thanks goes to Gin for the translations!
