Yes I WOULD expect them to only show new ones. HE SAID THAT HE WANTED IT TO BE A BRAND NEW EXPERIENCE FOR EVERYONE. He DOES want the game to be a surprise, he freaking said it himself. He said he wants people to play the game and say "wow, what's that pokemon?"
They do not "NEED" to start showing off new evos for old Pokemon at some point during the PRE-RELEASE. The only one they even showed in the D/P pre-release was Electivire, and that's because he was featured in the anime as Gary's pokemon, it was a major thing apparently. Luvdisc is so totally random and has NO reason to be promoted in the pre-release material.
I may not have an 100% confirmation that they "have not already begun to show new evos for old Pokemon" but you likewise have no confirmation that they HAVE. However, the difference is, my theories are based on logic, critical thinking, analysis of past events, and drawing reasonable conclusions based on all factors. Whereas you and everyone else are basing it soley on the physical similarities of Luvdisc and Mamanbo and ignoring/covering up every other factor.
Apparently not. She's been throwing around the same argument for hours despite it being shot to pieces on multiple occasions.
"Shot to pieces"? Don't make me laugh. The only counterpoints I've faced so far are "they look the same" and "Electivire wasn't revealed until much later", and then your baseless opinion that they "have to start showing them off somewhere".
I'm shooting everyone else's arguments to pieces with logic and and yet they are being completely ignored purely because Mamanbo is a pink, vaguely heart shaped fish. That's why I have to keep repeating myself.
And rockinpikachu, stop saying that I'm ignoring other posts. I can only post one thing at a time and by the time I'm done there are a multitude of new replies, I can't respond to all of them at once -_-
