How in the absolute fuck would they have not been aware after all this time? Fucking Hasbro knew about bronies wanting to knock up Derpy and shit
What interview was that? Are there any other drawings of a similar style you know off the type of your head?
Knowing what we know now, finding the 20GB of dolphin porn probably means it's the real leak.
This was hinted at(marriage with pokemon) as far back as Diamond/Pearl. These games came out in 2007.
It was a Nintendo Dream interview in 2011, but it was only translated into English in 2019 or so.
completely private dev materials that were never implemented into any games is not canon, but this lady does the character setting for stuff still, so it's not out of this world that she could slip something in some day.
Simple. They're just adding them back because ZA is set in Kalos and it was Kalos that introduced Megas. After ZA they'll go back to pretending Megas never existed.
It's weird since PLA still has the Arceus diagram, but I think it still mostly holds up. You can even see the prototype for Xerneas, Yveltal, and Zygarde in the tree of life which the weather trio fought, destroyed, and stole power from. So I guess that updated version of that would be the tree split into the life trio upon it's defeat and the weather trio got their Mega/Primordial forms from the power they stole.
They're well aware of it, they just tend to not get involved unless someone's making money off of it or they try to pass off copyrighted characters as their own (with a special mention to the second one, remember that Kuroodod's often-memed Oversexed Eeveelutions comic had to be comepletely retooled and any Pokémon characters removed from it due him being a retard and giving the comic an official ISBN).
Seconding this, I also wouldn't be surprised if they told her to cut that shit out in the future in order to make a future leak less damaging.
It's word of god, what we already see in-game heavily hints at this anyways, and most of the playerbase consists of coomers and/or furries already. This is a fight you're going to lose, might as well argue that the Fallout TV show is also canon. See how far that gets you. It's better to just roll with the punches when your alternative is getting mocked by a bunch of furries for being a puritian, or whatever insult they will hurl at you.
it would be word of god if it were released in any official media. as it stands, it's as canon as beta arceus or the gen 5 design for tyrantrum.
You're free to fight this battle if you choose, but you will never win with the pokefuckers.
A lot of those models actually look like they were used in Pokedex 3D
This arguing over what is and isn’t “canon” is literally retarded. The specific stories aren’t canon, sure, but pokephilia has (unfortunately) been a thing since we first read books at the Canalave library.
It would be pretty crazy if that app only exists because Gamefreak scrapped the 3D build of Black/White and they still had the resources. From what I remember, the models are different than the ones in Gen 6 and onwards so it's not like they're prototypes for that.
