Rules
My favorite highlights:
The gen 3 starters we dodged a bullet on
Original smol Zigzagoon
skibidi rotom
gen 3 dev map tools! if you've ever played around with making a romhack, this is particularly cool to see.
there's also a creation myth and more lore around humans fucking pokemon which is really cool stuff
skibidi rotom
GAMEFREAK INVENTED A TOILET POKEMON AND WE GOT ROBBED
spoiling the fun
It's still a washing machine but top-loading instead of front-loading. It'd be weird to have a rotom toilet because its whole thing is possessing motors, which toilets don't have.
I think the gen 4 map editor got leak as well, great day for romhack nerds i think
Treecko basically the same tho
power stance changes everything
Did the original, official tilesets get leaked? It would be freaking awesome
Torchic looks better here
I love this zigzagoon, bring him back
Couldn't have happened to a nicer guys
The funniest result of this would be if scarlet/violet is part of the leak and an enterprising group of coders fixed up the code to not be such a buggy, low-res mess.
Truly the modern, non-authorized version of Satoru Iwata fixing up Gen 2's code so well, they could fit the entire Kanto region in the game.
Fucking please I’d love to play a version of that game that worked
Idk about Scarlet/Violet but I love reading through the sections of the Pokémon Crystal decompilation project where they show the code that causes certain bugs and how to patch them
Has the leak actually been, you know, leaked somewhere? I keep seeing the same handful of snippets but no giant torrents.
This just made my day OMG I love Pokemon so much
Oh no what about the heckin Nintendo copyright bullying and legal torment of people modding their precious IPs? 
Here is some of the pokemon/human lore that got leaked
i feel like the hackers just added some shitposting to the pile just to fuck with them even more
I want to believe this is real if only because this makes palworld look extremely tame by comparison which is hilarious
Lol maybe, but the lore about the creation of the universe does seem legit
It's basically canon-friendly with Gen 4 lore. But humans and Pokemon getting it on is a bit less weird with the varying levels of sapience on various mons. I'm not doing a Harkness test though and I know some Pokemon like Basculin are canonically used as food since they're mentally just aggressive goldfish.
(And I know, not the best site to discuss in terms of various taboos on intelligence versus acceptability to eat.)
And then the villagers said "I don't think he's all that shaggy"
I doubt this is real - why would it have been written in English? Did the hackers say they translated it? Seems odd.
It is translated, I've seen the original Japanese docs
Ah, I see. Thanks!
from what i read, the leaks were originally posted in japanese and people have been translating them today
Makes sense, thanks!
Especially sus because a lot of Pokemon names we know in English were invented by the official localizers. For example, Octillery is apparently called Ocutank in Japanese. Which is weird, Octank sounds like a fine name for a pokemon to me. Never understood why localizers make up new names for stuff that already sounds fine
Pretty sure this shit is just par for the course with Japanese folklore lmao
Sounds great! Literally nothing bad will come out of this, except some excellent Gen 4-5 RomHacks down the road from the community... Pokemon in itself is not really hard to code game-wise. What people care about is Pokemon (TM) brand - so it is not like 3rd party devs can expect to gain anything from this leak. What we will get is more unlicensed fangames
Will this actually improve the ROM hack scene? I assume anything taking advantage of the source code would be too legally risky to release publicly.
My assumption is having the source code out there inherently makes the ROM binary more understandable (able to diff against the source code) and behavior more thoroughly documented.
im going to post another few leaks i found interesting

OFFICIAL ORIGIN OF THE POKÉMON UNIVERSE
spoiler
In the beginning, there was a vortex of chaos.
All mixed slowly together, and everything was a blur.
One day, a large egg appeared in the center of the chaos. For a long time, the egg continued to shake.
Eventually, the vortex stopped, and the egg broke. The absolute god AUS was born.
The scattered fragments of the egg transformed into giants, and attacked the newly born AUS. However, AUS quickly grew, and continuously defeated the giants. At last, after a fierce battle, AUS defeated all the giants.
The wounded AUS created an alternate self. As the left and right side of AUS’s body were different, it created two selves. AUS gathered the body of the defeated giants, and poured its blood into them.
From the one who resembled his left poured out light, so AUS named it IA, the god of light. From the one who resembled his right poured out darkness, so AUS named it EA, the god of darkness.
To the two, AUS commanded that the world be filled with people, and fell into a deep slumber.
Although IA and EA were different in appearance, they loved one another, were joined, and had many children. However, there still existed no world, and their frail children, who had nowhere to go, died one after the other. Though overcome with great sadness, IA and EA thought of creating a world where all could live healthy and prosperous lives.
IA and EA called their children REI, the god of eyes; AI, the god of heart; and HAI, the god of voice.
When REI open its eyes, everything that was there appeared. There was now contour and color in the world. When AI wished for it, everything that was there could be felt. A sense of calm spread. When HAI shouted, everything that was there trembled. A blessed timbre began to resonate.
To the three, IA and EA gave the seed of life and told them to nurture it.
The three gathered in a circle and prayed, and the seed sprouted.
The sprout quickly grew, and became the giant tree of life. However, the tree continued to grow, soon filling the entire world, and no one was able to move.
The three asked Father IA and Mother EA for help.
EA and IA joined once again, and had three children. The god of the sky, RAYQUAZA; the god of the earth, GROUDON; and the god of the ocean, KYOGRE were born.
RAYQUAZA wrapped its body around the tree of life. GROUDON and KYOGRE slammed their bodies into the tree of life. Eventually, the tree fell and broke into three pieces.
REI, AI, and HAI prayed, saddened that the tree would rot away like this. Then, the pieces of the broken tree would transform into the sky, earth, and ocean.
RAYQUAZA became the pillar that holds the sky. The shadow that reached into the heavens became the three gods who sustain the sky: KAIRYU, KABIGON, and BANGIRAS. The air filled the sky, and the stars sparkled.
GROUDON became the land that covers the earth. The roar of the diving land became the three gods who sustain the earth: DAABU, SAAN, and GOODON. The earth shook, and the mountains stirred.
KYOGRE became the veins of water that embraced the oceans. The ripples that disappeared into the seas became the three gods who sustain the ocean: LATIAS, METAGROSS, and LATIOS. The ocean was filled with water, and the waves whispered.
Thus the world was born.
IA and EA, and the various gods, were very pleased with this, and filled this world with their children.
That peaceful world was a paradise for the children of god.
The children of god would continue to multiply.
Through that, words would change little by little.
Over time, the gods began would call those who lived in the world by two names.
The children of god who resembled the great father, IA, would be called “Pokémon”. The children of god who resembled the great mother, EA, were called “humans”.
The absolute god AUS will soon awaken, and seeing the world filled with its descendants, will promise great abundance and prosperity.
"Tex" (Regigigas) is breaking me lmfao
Pokemon universe origins is deranged.
Metagross is a god, huh
Turns out Game Freak are freaks
cant wait to see how much of a piece of shit scarlet violets codebase really is
Native PC versions when?
