Whoever made this decision, I'd like words with them.

You're horribly off.

It's not nintendo's choice. Some shops decided to sell early and now there are copies out there. It'll be all leaked before release day. It's not GF or Nintendo's choice it's rogue shops.

EDIT: Also copies are sent off to be reviewed so there's a possibility people have got hold of them somehow through that method.

I've been following the instagram guy who has a copy of the game already.

Holy crap, I wanted to avoid spoilers but it's just too compelling. Thankfully no new Pokemon shown just yet, looks like everyone has seen the early-game Pokemon.

I'm kind of sad this is happening though, I really wanted it to be a simultaneous release.

The map looks epic though. Seriously amazing how crazy it looks.

if anyone on this site lives in canada or italy please dont post anything on here.. its hard enough to aviod everything else until the 12th

It looks kinda small :/ I hope it's bigger in-game.

[Richard and Blaziken]

WHYYYY

This does kind of sadden me... but it's only 10 more days... 10... more... days...

On the plus side, the picture of Froakie's final evo going around has possibly made me change my starter selections.

*SPOILER*

Did anyone else notice the Snorlax on the bridge? Is that some sort of way of bringing back Gen I or something? It does seem very reminiscent of Gen I, with. Kanye starters, Snorlax on bridge,

Please just avoid the topics or this particular forum.

This is a Pokemon discussion forum. Discussion will take place on new games when they come out, leaks and so on. Once others get their hands on it, they'll want to talk about it. As that's what this place is for, we're not going to prohibit it.

And yes, there's also a Pokeflute item I saw in the bag. I think they are trying to get new and old players interested in this game, I'm pretty happy about it.

PS: sylar if you rename the topic to include something about leaks then people will probably just post the leaks discussion in here. I'm gonna try and use white text to make spoilers kinda hard to read.

Sappy's Instagram link has had pics removed by Nintendo, so here's the same images on Tumblr:
