@eclipse_tt Podcast thread to put together all the info revealed and put together some theories as to what things could mean (of course, nothing is confirmed until it is officially revealed)
Hisuian forms and evolutions:
-Under 10 new Pokémon/evolutions, more than 5 (can't be counted on 1 hand).
-17 Hisuian forms of existing Pokémon ("2 down, 15 to go"), not counting evolutions.
-No Hisuian form that evolves into a new Pokémon.
(Numbers match with ball guy leaks)
Legendaries:
-New forms in PLA, not primals as stated by Centro, more in line with Giratina's Origin Forme. (Ball Guy)
-All gen 4 legendaries and mythicals catchable in BDSP
-Centro "unverified source" leaks all fake
Chinese riddler:
-Centro emojis don't translate riddles properly
-Riddles hint at starter evos/types
-Ghost girl riddle can only be understood knowing a signature move of the associated starter (each has one)
-Only someone who knows Chinese can understand them fully
BDSP:
-No megas
-May include some kind of new form
-No DLC planned for now
Legends ridable Pokémon:
-Only 4 ridable Pokémon (3 revealed + climber leaked)
-More than 4 wardens (for things such as Kleavor)
-Climbing Pokémon could be new Sneasel or Nuzleaf evolution (speculation) [Ball Guy has said it is a Sneasel evo]
Specific forms mentioned:
-No eeveelutions
-New starter evolution forms
-Hisuian Voltorb and Electrode
-Ridable Ursaring evo is fake (but Ursaring could still get an evo, Eclipse was told an old bear Pokémon would get one)
-Typhlosion's new concept is "sick"
-Dunsparce mentioned
-In addition to what is said above, leak shown here is half real half fake (reliable source gave mixed real/fake info)
-Starter forms, Hisuian Electrode line real, rest is fake (BDSP issues may just be an assumption)
Legends stats:
-All Pokémon may receive a stat buff, as has been seen before in trailers
-Stats can level up up to 3 times, using a new item they can eat to raise them
-Stat raise is substantial (example was given with raising 60 Attack to 70 with 1 level)
Unite:
-Not much information, but Decidueye definitely coming
2022 plans:
-No Legends DLC
-Gen 9 in late 2022/early 2023 (former more likely)
-Gen 9 announcement definitely in 2022 (possibly first half)
-Gamefreak working both on PLA and Gen 9
Centro collage tweet:
-Collage is entirely real
-Besides the 3 images seen from the Chinese riddler, here are the statements made on the others:
Top middle image (Zoro and Perona from One Piece):
-Related to today's "found footage" trailer
-This teaser is for an unrevealed evolution of an existing species
(Speculation: Zoro being included seems to point to Zorua/Zoroark, as is being speculated by many)
-Trailer should be coming within the week (possibly tomorrow) to officially reveal this Pokémon.
Top right image:
-"Love cloud" given as a hint
-Heart shape could relate to Luvdisc
-Clouds could relate to Altaria
-Could be a different Comfey form
Middle image:
-"Swimsuit" given as a clue
(Speculation: possibly a swimming/diving mechanic? Perhaps a new form based around swimming?)
Pokéball image:
-Confirmed to refer to aforementioned Voltorb line forms
Cactus image:
-Name of the creature is supposedly a clue as to what it could be hinting at
(Creature's name is Cactuar, from Final Fantasy)
Snail ring:
-Platinum ring in the shape of a snail
-Could refer to snail/slug-shaped Pokémon (Dunsparce?)
-Could refer to Goodra line (snail-based)
Warship:
-We already have a warship Pokémon (not sure who this refers to, Dragapult?)
-Related to said warship Pokémon
Bottom middle image:
-From old manga Esper Mami
-Esper could point to a Psychic type form/evo
Bottom right image:
-Points to aforementioned new bear evolution from an old species
-Maybe not Ursaring as it was shown as a miniboss
Baby Pokémon:
-Tweet below supported
-Crossed out Pokémon have had their regular evos shown already (notice tweet says "line")
-Will be teased soon by Eclipse
And that's all, just as a reminder, this isn't me trying to say any of this is confirmed, simply wanted to register all that was said for those who missed it.
