SPOILERS! Pokemon Sword and Shield Datamine Thread

At least I hope that, just like it was discovered too little too late in the Isle of Armor, you can release the legendary and skip the storyline.

I just want the birds and the regis.

I mean if the UB plot is post game then it'll be Birds, Regi, Calyrex, UBs so you could just get the bids & regi and stop playing if nothing else interests you
 
Didn't see anyone mention this yet but I'd like to call to attention that the black horse has the exact same pose as Rapidash's official art when it's fused with Calyrex

This is the second time (that I can recall) of them doing this kind of this this gen, the first time being Scorbunny having Chimchar's exact pose. Equal parts funny and lame.
In fairness, it's apparently pretty standard for the horse to be depicted like that when carrying a royal figure. Unless the horse is rearing back, which speaks to the discussion about static images being easier to have more personality.

Not coincidentally, the ice horse is rearing back

Its a shame the cathedrel/castle that'll probably be calryex's location is all busted up, it'd be cool to see more medievel artstyled stuff with Calyrex riding into battle on its steed(s)
 
Shut up. Please just shut the fuck up. Nobody cares anymore about this worthless trash. This is a datamine thread, not the umpteenth "time to bitch about the current state of the franchise" thread. You're not funny, you're not making insightful commentary, you're just regurgitating the same shit that's been shoved down people's throats for the better part of a year. "Gen 8 bad" wow good job, you're so smart, you're really on a higher plane of existence, only someone as enlightened as you could willingly ignore the difference between "deliberately frankensteinish manmade fusion of two Pokemon" and "one Pokemon riding another as a steed in battle" and the various design implications that has.

People like you are the reason why I damn nearly reached a point where I wished Gen 5 didn't fucking exist
This is currently the thread for discussing the newly obtained information on the designs. If they feel the need to state that they don't like the relatively mundane design for the dual form, preferring the fused forms of Kyurem and Necrozma, this is the thread where they should state that. Objecting to the more aggressive tone is fine, but the content itself has reason to be here.

the problem is that it is an "gf lazy look at what they made before and look at what they made now" and not an "they did pretty bad with this one" comment, and it is the point of this to talk abt new things, not to trash talk gf
 
So for the horse riding Calyrex shinys, it seems like only Calyrex is the one that changes colors, so I assume they're Calyrex formes rather than formes of the horses, right?

Yeah, this was confirmed a while ago IIRC.

Annoyingly, they've also made it a single key item like the DNA splicers. I thought they learned their lesson on that after they had separate items for Necrozma so you could have both forms at once, but apparently not.
 
you were just trash talking gf, lets look at the second half of the post.

yep, just trash talking gf.
you had an completely valid point at the first half, but you just turned onto an "fuck gf they lazy" mentality at the second half
also forgot that they NEVER WERE OFFICIALLY DESCRIBED AS FUSIONS by gf, tpc, and etc

That's only left to your subjective point of view. I'm free to extend my message as far as I want, and in regards to talking about the designs, I can perfectly alude at the reasons why I think those designs lack work. So, not only am I refering to the topic, but you are trying to impose your subjective interpretacion of what you think I really meant.

In other words, if someone were to talk about the horses designs being shit (which is on topic) and then added "Game Freak being lazy again", you have precisely 0 right of shutting down said comment, as we have a right to free speech while maintaining on-topic, and that translates into elaborating the point. Again: don't get mad. Also, don't call it trash talking. Describing a lazy-company as lazy is fair criticism. Enough manipulation for you.
 
To get us off the semantics....

I am curious what Calyrex-Steed will look like stat-wise, since it’s not a true physical change. Maybe the mount just increases HP, Speed, and maybe Attack (since Calyrex itself looks pretty frail, physically wise)?
I think Calyrex will have high hp and good special attack/defense, but low speed and middling attack.
The form change will kep the HP & Special Defense, but increase the speed to the horse's (which I think will be High and the same for both). I assume one horse will be phys and the other will be special, so one of the offensive stats will get jacked and the defense stat will also rise.

Or something along those lines
 
I'm not sure what the typings of those two horses are going to be - like, something along the lines of Psychic/Ice or Psychic/Dark? I don't know...

And what will likely be the BST for Calyrex itself?
 
As for BST since Calyrex is kind of getting special treatment here and, unlike Urshifu, has not been advertised as something you can take into normal online or competitive play, Calyrex will get in the ballpark of 660~680 and the Rider forms will jack it to like 700~720

Basically in line with the wolves and their forms.
 
What BSTs are you expecting for the Horses/Calyrex? I personally think the horses may have 600 BST and Calyrex has 680

If tradition holds: Calyrex's base form having ~600, the horses having around 680, and the combined ones having stats at or above 680. I can see 720 or maybe even a bit more, for parity with Zacian and Zamazenta in their optimal forms; if Calyrex ruled Galar, it makes sense that the cover dogs would be subordinate to it, which has generally been represented with the subordinates having a lower BST.

I'm mostly hoping the combined ones remain as special attackers. We've had enough physical-side legendaries for this generation.

My personal preference would be ice/grass and ghost/grass for the typings.

yea, you can say gf lazy, but you cant just completely go off topic to it. this is an datamine thread to talk abt ct datamine, not an trash talking abt gf lazy thread
but you didnt add an gf being lazy again point to the thing, no, more than half of your post is just gf bad.

If Calyrex has 660-680 stat spread I can't see it going to OU. Doubly so for the 720 Horses if that turns out to be what happens
