Since it's not really speculation anymore, I felt like I should just make a new thread for that.

UPDATE : just in case, while the domain names have been registered by an official trademarking company that usually only deals with companies, I'll stick Joe's tweet here :


UPDATE 2 :

Somewhere. I think.
Don't official domain names just redirect to the official Pokémon website when it's now active yet? I remember previous Pokémon domain names (including some that were never used) redirecting to that.

So the sites were registered yesterday, the day when the leaks became public, and they don't link back to Pokemon.com...

Yeah, I'm gonna go with the URL squatting theory here.

So hyped for the reveal! Does this seem somewhat reactionary to the leaks to anyone else? Feel like we could be getting the announcement moved up to today or tomorrow.

Guess the reveal is going to be this week after all ... or is there a (longer) time-frame until those regs go live?

#TeamEevee

I'm so intrigued by it.

What if you start the game at the Pokémon Mansion at Celadon City (where you get Eevee in Blue, Red and Yellow),

What if you play as Blue, your main rival (considering Eevee is his starter in Pokémon Yellow)?

At present we don't know if that company is representing Nintendo/Pokémon or if it's someone squatting through that company

So according to you it's no longer speculation and 'confirmed' at this point, but we don't know if this is official.

I really, really hope they drop the announcement video sooner rather than later. I don't want to wait another week or more.
