Your argument is weak. Blastoise and Squirtle are both, in fact, TURTLES. Turtwig and Torterra share the similar quality of being turtles, as well as the sprout-->tree "growing up" similarity.
WPM, spare us your insider information, seriously. This insider information crap is absolutely ruining your/Serebii/Pokexperto's community, and I'm pretty sick of it. If it's real , show us the proof, and if Pokexperto wants to validate his claim, why is he keeping it secret?
I also love how you discredit people's arguments by saying you have your own insider information, and then say "We'll know it's a scam if the smiley mask Pokemon has crazy eyebrows". Um, what? So, you're basing your argument of disqualifying other's arguments based on something that you yourself have not confirmed yet?
Give us a break, tell us or shut up and let us speculate. I'm tired of this just as much as you are, but coming in and saying "Lol okay guys, they are real now" while EVERY SINGLE SOURCE has a TINGE of doubt is pretty ballsy and insulting.
Also, you yourself tackle the weakest of the arguments. What about the forensic editing proof, or perhaps the errors within the sprites? The coloring issues with Pokabu's 2nd evolution, the fact that Mijumaru is all-but-confirmed Fighting-type (Revenge/Shell Blade) yet shows none of these qualities, or the fact that the final evolutions show perspective issues with the mustache of Mijumaru's 3rd and the hood of Tsutaja's 3rd.
You validate your argument by picking at the weakest link, when everyone agrees that they are WEAK arguments.
You could have done this in a more respectful way.~de
