>Cetatian: a marine mammal of the order Cetacea ; a whale, dolphin, or porpoise.
Face it, it was a mistranslation of Cetacean that lead Kaka and Khu to call this a dolphin. We were robbed of a dolphinmon again. Dolphin mon never ever.

It looks like a final stage and his pre-evo will probably be the dolphin
I expect it to be single-stage like Duraludon.
Khu said it has a "cute" prevo
why do you keep mentioning duraludon specifically when saying you think its single stage
Don't forget that Khu said the dolphin evolves "but doesn't evolve" whatever the frick that means. It's likely unrelated to this thing altogether. The implication from what he said about this thing's prevo was that it was a normal prevo, it was cute, and there was something to do with Wailmer and a beard.
>Don't forget that Khu said the dolphin evolves "but doesn't evolve" whatever the frick that means
Frick, we're getting Tera-specific forms, aren't we?
Could be like type null where it doesn't actually evolve outside of gameplay mechanics
TERA FORM CHARIZARD!!!
I hope not, unless it's for the legendaries. Or Diancie.
Slowpoke and Type: Null both evolve without actually evolving.
Slow pokes body actually changes
Doesn't matter, the dex explicitly clarifies that Slowbro and Slowking are still just a Slowpoke and Shellder even after evolving. It even goes as far as to confirm that the "evolution" reverts when Shellder's removed, and there's entries that specifically refer to them by name when mentioning their individual bodies.
Okay
This actually makes a lot of sense. And I could see it being something like that, where the evolution is mechanically an evolution but realistically just a slight design tweak and refiguring of stats. There's a few more Pokemon to do this too. Wishiwashi comes to mind. You can make an argument too for Dugtrio and Magneton since they are just three of the pre evolution. Or it could be like Shedinja where it "spawns" a stronger form. The phrasing he uses is still super vague, but will definitely make sense when we see the final product
>evolves "but doesn't evolve"
It probably has an evo that is also a landwhale. It evolves by Pokémon's definition, but not by biology's.
this is one of the ugliest looking pokemon ever created. we owe feebas at this point
Crappy edit I know, but does it look better without legs?
>remove his main interesting feature
excuse me its main interesting feature is of course the fins
Shut your dirty trap, everybody knows that horns are the best!
its fine with leg reminds me something from gen 3 like shelgon
yeah looks a lot better
absolutely eldritch
This is why /vp/ shouldn't do character reminds me of the malamar edits that turned it into a normal fricking squid
>GUYS LETS REMOVE THE ONLY INTERESTING ASPECT OF THE DESIGN AND MAKE IT MORE INTO A FORGETTABLE CARTOON ANIMAL, IT’LL MAKE IT BETTER I SWEAR
Every fricking time, I’m so fricking glad the moronic zoomers on this board have no input on pokemon designs.
do you live in fricking chernobyl? I can't think of any other way it would look like a cartoon whale to you
>zoomers
The only people who obsess over elemental animal designs are gen 1-2 boomers who think new designs are worse despite being better on average than old designs
>missing the entire point
>hey, look how it looks with out legs
>REEEEEEE YOU CANT JUST DO THAT OR EVEN LOOK AT IT YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND
>asks how it looks
>it's bad
>REEEEEEEEE
>it's true because it's in a picture
This is the most moronic board in the history of the internet.
KInd of. I would change the pink to ice blue and remove the black markings under its eyes.
It does look better but the ugliest part of it is its mouth by far because it clips into itself every time it opens its mouth.
Non virgin visiting this loser board because these mon reveals are pathetically bad. Without legs makes it way better, don't listen to the autistic perpetually ten-year-old nintendo fanbois.
I hate you frickers. I want more fricking monsters, not just elemental animals.
Looks like a quilfish evo
nah you are
Its ugliness is what does it for me. It looks threatening and I like that.
It's not "ugly" (in the sense of Feebas or Bruxish), it is monstruous. And it is also gigantic in size.
It already grew on me, it's amazing.
It's actually looks like a pokemon for once barring the troony make up.
He's awesome, he actually looks like a weird ass monster.
Not having some shitty human-related theme is enough to make it great by nu-pokemon standards
new not "nu", learn to spell
It's a badass Kaijumon you limpdick homosexual. I fully expect your favourite Pokemon to be Primarina or something.
>kaiju
You gays keep calling it that but what kaiju is it supposed to be based off of? Last I checked, there's no whale kaiju, gay.
A Kaiju is anything which takes inspiration from real life majestic animals, in this case a prehistoric whale. Use your imagination.
A kaiju is a giant monster. Full stop. There's no design basis whatsoever for those, and if you seen even a quater of the genre's roster you'd realize how fricking moronic you sound since there's shit like literal plants and personified pollution and generic fricking aliens and robots.
"Gojira" literally means Gorilla Whale you fricking moron
I would prefer ice blue to pink but otherwise it's the best Mon so far.
Thats because khu has no access to the pictures itselves. Only some text or translation stuff. Since he doesn't exactly know what he is talking about he uses tje 'riddles' to spark interest and delay delivery of the leaks. With that in mind the obscure references and anime pictures of PLA make sense. Why did he tied muscular girl to sneasler even though they are nothing alike? Read the dex entry. Hes got text and speculation.
Khu definitely sees images of the game because lots of his info has visual clues. Kaka is the one who is a playtester and thus had info from the data files without necessarily seeing them.
Khu also has 2 separate riddles for Cetitan and the dolphin mon, so I don't think they're the same.
>majority of leaks are leakers own fanfic interpretation
WOAH
nice boobs
This is why I’m skeptical of the starter evolution details from Khu. I don’t think he’s lying or completely inaccurate, but he’s been confused about the theme/inspiration of Pokémon before and there are also translation troubles.
I believe, for example, that Quaxly’s final evo probably has flashy feathers and a graceful fighting style, but I’m not convinced it was directly based on dancers and I HIGHLY doubt it becomes a literal peawiener just because Khu said so once Kaka started stealing his thunder.
I think so too.
Like how he says Sprig will look like a clown, j think he means a jester.
>majority
a lot of them are concrete
This will look really moronic with the hats.
Not really, by that I mean not more than with other mons
we have yet to see the other types too
even when you get a dolphin, you'll cry because you meant (but wont say) that you wanted Flipper
Newsflash, we HAVE a dolphin and you're right, incels ignore Kyogre as it's not flipper and tv told them only flipper can be a dolphin.
by that logic gastrodon is a snail and swanna is a peawiener
You know that "whale" in English can mean any cetacean, right? The orca is in the dolphin family (Delphinidae) which means it's a dolphin in the same way (You) are a moronic ape.
The phrase "Leviathan does not resemble Kyogre" is really pissing me off, it makes it sound like Kyogre came first. I'm tired and should sleep.
if the chances of getting a bottlenose dolphin mon are slim, the chances of getting a river dolphin mon are slimmer. this makes me sad.
Looks like an ai generated nokemon
That's the best ultra beast that Gamefreak never even made.
get....get rid of the tail...
I like the idea of removing some details, but I think larger simple eyes works well instead of removing them completely.
I hope the shiny is yellow
LET'S FRICKING GOOOO!!!!!
BALL OF DEATH YEAAAAHHHHHHHHHH-
Normally I like these kind of pokemon but this is doing it for me. Seeing others liking it for the reason I should confuses me
*isn't doing it
why did they make it so feminine?
Yet again "leakers" embarassed themselves. I miss real leaks.

unironically a good idea

Good.
whales>>>>>>>>>>>>>
This IS a dolphin, anon.
>literal landwhale pokemon
what will you nickname yours?
landwhale
Khu said the dolphin and cetitan are two different lines. Apparently when the dolphin mon evolves it “doesn’t evolve.”
>trusting khu
Lol, he's just been grasping at straws anon
he was teasing Fidough for a month
>teasing
What about actually saying it's name instead of clowning, huh?
>moving the goalpost
Just a heckin coincidence xD
I love Cetitan. Definitely my favourite new Pokémon revealed so far.
Didn't Monster Crown make a whale with limbs?
found it
I first thought of Monster Rancher's Zilla
So Cetatian is 14'9 tall but the trailer made him look so small.
>Pure ice type
>"Dolphin"
I sleep
? No. Khu leaked this before the trailer and posted something else for the dolphin.

Golem
Why won't these frickers stay in the sea.
>leaves the water

>leaves the water again
>land whale
Melony was introduced a gen too early.
> Height : 14'9"
You seriously telling me this Pokemon is as big as Complete Zygarde?
Tip to tail, as with all fish Pokemon
Still more probable than the Dog-Don misconception with the legendaries. That's so stupid.
>the Land whale pokemon
>Doesnt look like american woman
gamefreak isnt even trying at this point
"noooo it doesn't look like a dolphin from real life, no dolphin poke>:("
Have you ever played a pokemon game?
Have you ever played a pokemon game prior to swish? You'd realise that most pokemon look like the thing or animal they were based on and usually not like messi in a fursuit
There's no game called swish, Lantern is from gen 2 and Tapus fini from gen 7 and Messi isn't an available character in pokemon
Lanturn is an anglerfish, i dont know tapu fini is supposed to be besides a totem pole and you dont know who could be in that fursuit they adress as "cinderace"
When people say dolphin they mean a bottlenose dolphin stop being an autistic moron please. Also kyogre is an orca and not a dolphin .
An orca is as much of a dolphin as any other in the family
Nobody cares though. They mean a bottlenose dolphin which is what people are referring to when they say dolphin.
Right and I agree. But then you continued to say
>Also kyogre is an orca and not a dolphin
which isn't true
When people say dolphin they mean a bottle nosed dolphin right? So if kyogre is an orca and not a bottle nosed dolphin then kyogre is not a dolphin (but instead an orca).
If that was the intent, then it was unnecessarily added on as the first sentence already implies that if it's not a bottlenose, it's not what people want. Especially since adding the "also" makes it sound like a side note to the main point.
It is a side note though.
Right, a side note that implies orcas aren't dolphins regardless of what people think a dolphin is, which isn't true.
jumping through these hoops is moronic and justifying common denominator thinking instead of educating is even more moronic. If you want a specific type of dolphin, just fricking say so. Say you want a bottlenose
>but OBVIOUSLY people mean--
dont care. Say you want a bottlenose
>Say I want a fruit salad
>Be given salsa
>Get told tomato is a fruit and I should have said I wanted something more specific
>Vp wants a whack ass dolphin in the game
I don't think I'm going to like the pink ever but I also think the art vs. ingame is just showing how they can't into graphics STILL
I'm going to go with they're not the same Pokemon and the reason why is because Khu had two separate image riddles for the dolphin and whale.
If I'm wrong and they're the same I'll be upset but not the least bit surprised because the Chinese are pretty moronic and do this kind of stuff a lot
Dolphin pokemon (water/psychic)
Orca pokemon (water/dark)
Great White shark pokemon (water/fighting)
The orca has an ability that makes it strong against fighting types to own the shark rival
The dolphins are rare and elusive and try to make peace between the rival gangs of sharks and orcas.
The orcas are the villains of the story since they are so effective at killing, the sharks are losing but are too stupid to face it, engage in wanton killing as a result
Would be a decent movie, make it happen
