Dex Speculation/Discussion Thread

[Valdoom]

are you sure ;-;
have u tried to translate it?
*shields because that was probably a stupid question*

Don't worry it's not a stupid question no but as demon said; Sunyshore is a reputable translator and has done many times in the past. Also notice the middle symbols don't appear on Eevee movie short poster whereas the rest do including Sylveon's Bow symbol. So they would have shown those as well.

[M-D]

Quoting Sunyshore for this



The orange letter doesn't mean anything.

However the ones on the outer edges of those do appear on the Eevee poster where the symbol of Slyveon is in the middle (the bow) so shows they represent the other eeveelutions.

I guess that makes sense though I'm not too sure why they made his name two colours...why not have his name in a different font or at least one set colour? Though it does seem like a logical reason for the extra letters.

darn...
i was hopeful it was alluding to something new

^Quackah ovah herah. (Referring to first post)

Did it possibly come to mind that new new Eeveelution (Sylveon's counterpart) would be released in Eevee's short? Several Pokemon have come out that way.

Perhaps, but remember all that for now is hopeful wishing... I hope they do come out with a counterpart.

[mtie123]

Surely they would be relased together at the same time like the others were e.g. Espeon+Umbreon, Glaceon+Leafeon. But this is GF so they could do anything really

i just want them to reveal the type of sylveon at least since I am not so sure we will get more than what we already know.....

Just to keep it in the same style as the rest of the symbols probably; the colour is just colour, doesn't really mean anything for that but more for the outer edges as seen in this image



Which is what we were originally speculating on; however Sylveon represents the bow, so either Espeon is at the end with the stars or Glaceon is in the wrong place and is the one with the stars and espeon is next to umbreon.

Oh yeah! Agreed. At this point I'm just thankful th gave us at least 1 eeveelution,
So before they announce the second (IF they have made a second) I would also lik them to reveal sylveons typing first, or at least how it evolves.

That translation is correct.
The question is, is that show official or just some dude dressing up in Eeveelution costumes for the hell of it?
If it's official, there's still reason to speculate.

The show is SMASH and it's quite official. Even though they're playing around most of the time.

[stevencloser]

Well then, there you have it. No reason to dismiss the colour choice as coincidence just yet.

[adamfitz]

Hmmm... So smash is on tonight?
Doubt they have anything to show us x and y related
Especially a new pokemon

Well, I read a news update at the beginning of the week that said there would be X and Y information included on Smash, but in all likelihood, they're probably just going to rave about Sylveon and how mysterious it is.

I haven't seen this posted (from what I glanced, sorry if it has been) But I saw this and assumed it was fake, I don't think I've seen it posted anywhere else?

Fake, and old. I remember that picture going around back in mid-December.

I don't really see how color choice would indicate what type a Eeveelution partner would be. After all, the Eeveelutions don't exactly correspond to their gaming color code:

Espeon is notably purple, but psychic is given pink as its color
Sylveon is pink, but no type possibility has pink as its color (unless they *shudder* introduce a new type, or worse: evolve espeon) That in mind, I am fully aware that pink is very typical for normal-types.

If the orange is an indication of anything, it's just what its body's color is, potentially. Time for the waiting game I suppose!

I'd say Espeon is a strong pink going into magenta.

Not sure if it is already posted, but could that move Sylveon used be miracle eye? It looks A LOT like the animation from gen V.
