"Sylvanshine is an optical phenomenon in which dew-covered trees of species whose leaves are wax-covered retroreflect beams of light" Oh man, Wax type 100% confirmed.

Ha, they still have 8 months to fill with information without spoiling it, so it's actually surprising that we've gotten everything we have already. You must've been really dissatisfied during the buildup to gen5 if you're complaining like this now.

So I'm just assuming nothing new was revealed on Pokémon Sunday since it hasn't even been mentioned. What did they talk about? I was hoping they'd at least hint at Sylveon's type :(

They also added Dark and Steel to give Fighting a buff, so they could potentially add a type to give Poison a buff and Dragon a nerf (which would in turn lessen the need for Steel)

Pretty sure he was joking. Either way Curse is Ghost now so it doesn't matter.

Man, with all these negative comments I feel like I'm the only one who really loves Sylveon: how it looks, the name, everything. It's already my favorite eeveelution (previously Leafeon) and I don't even know its type yet. Why is everyone so negative?

I thought there was debate over whether it was Dark or Dark/Fighting. Hmm, maybe that was just what I was hoping it'd be haha. I think Yveltal is pretty obvious, though.

They did the same thing with Zoroark at first last time, though, didn't they?

If it were Normal I think it'd be awesome competitively with Adaptability especially if it got Swords Dance and ExtremeSpeed. Although we'd have to hope for Superpower as well.

Seeing it in the image with the other eeveelutions is making me question that it's a Flying type. It really could be any type for all we know but looking at every other eeveelution its ridiculously obvious what types they are. Why isn't this one obvious? Could a new type really happen or are...

Probably some new hold item or location. Or maybe Eevee gets Aerial Ace as a lvl up move this gen and it evolves ala Piloswine/Aipom/Yanma etc.

Yeah but Eeveelutions' names are indicative of their typing, so if the "nin" really did mean ninja it would most likely be Fighting type since ninjas fight. I'm leaning toward the person who said it's probably based off nymph, though, which could be Flying or Normal.

Ha, the amount of Bug Pokémon with four feet is much much much much higher than with six. Caterpie, Volbeat, Illumise, Kricketune, Karrablast, Venonat, Surskit, Joltik, etc, etc. The only ones I can think of off the top of my head that have six are Ledyba and Spinarak and the latter should...

I'm really surprised they're revealing so much. We got Zorua/Zoroark in February 2010 then didn't get anything until the starters (without evolutions) and region name in April then nothing really after that besides Reshiram/Zekrom until basically a month or so before release. Am I forgetting...

Thank god. I wasn't ready to accept Yveltal as a Dragon.

First news from Corocoro is that Yveltal is Dragon/Dark. Disappointing. I was hoping for a Lugia-esque Dark/Flying. Edit 1: Well now that was removed from the Serebii front page so I don't know if that means it's false or what. I'm hoping it was a fake. Edit 2: Can anyone translate...

It does 102 max, not 120.

Those are two of the moves that wouldn't be outclassed. I'm mainly talking about Waterfall/Aqua Tail, Wild Charge, Leaf Blade, Stone Edge, Earthquake, X-scissor, Icicle Crash, Zen Headbutt, Crunch, Shadow Claw, etc. Assuming the distribution would be like Return/Frustration, then all those...

That would ruin the viability of so many other physical moves.

But what would they do about Hidden Power?
