Spoiled

do you ever feel like somehow pokemon surprises from nintendo were spoiled because of some strange reason. I remember before I knew about serebii I
used to think of things like mew and jirachi as legends and would tell anyone off who said they were real. Post here if this happened to u
 
I see nothing here. If you're obtaining information in advance from a website such as this one, you're doing it conciously. If you don't like it, then don't dig for it. The end. What's the discussion?
 
He/She has a point though. It did feel kind of saddening for a little while after reading about the in-depth mechanics and such.

But then, once you get into it, it's Pokemon on a whole new level. Kind of like growing up.
 
I get what you mean. Yeah, the mystery kinda faded away after reading all the game guides and stuff on Serebii, but that's my own fault really.
Besides, It's kinda better now that I know whats real in Pokemon and what's just plain lies -.- Lol, I remeber thinking beating the elite four 100 times would get you Jirachi or something...ha, Serebii's a life saver :p (And now I own a LEGIT Jirachi ^^ yay!)
But the truth can be unexciting sometimes...
 
You're talking bout pokemon game myths?

I tried to get deoxys once by talking to the scientist in the rocket lab everyday. Didnt work so well. Still dunno if its true or myth.

I already own a legit Deoxys too btw.
 
YES!

I wanted to wait to see the new pokemon until I played the game myself, but NO. People had to put 4th gen pokemon in their sigs, and never shut up about them.

I think this kind of leakage should have to remain spoiled until the game comes out in North America... Though that wouldn't help me, since I'm in Canada...

That's the problem with being in Canada. You always know everything before it comes, because people already know it in the original country, and then we have to wait, because the USA always gets everything first.

Absolutely not. By coming to a known, confirmed, dedicated POKEMON board and especially one that gets the information it does like this one, you officially divest yourself of any right to complain about being spoiled.

i actually did beleive this jirachi thing along with the deoxys thing.. i would like stay there for hours killing the elite four until i finally realized it was a rumor
 
I think now things are not as they have been years back. The 'secret' legends were fun, but know we know all of them, plus every other little detail in the games. I wanted to have the 4th gen Pokes a secret, and discover them as I played, but it didn't work out. On the note of EVs/IVs and all the competitive, I think it takes the fun away from when we can just play as we wanted to.
 
Well I understand how you feel, even if you weren't actively seeking the pictures of the 4th gen pokemon, you saw them in everyone's avatars...

I'm suprised Canada doesn't get the games at the same time...
 
We don't, because we're always in the shadow of America. They get everything first.

Why do you think we're so far behind in the anime? The last episode that aired here was the episode with pachirisu.

The problem is that keeping people from mentioning the thing until the release date doesn't help anything. Many people don't get the game right after the release date, so they'll likely get spoiled anyway.
 
only time I felt spoiled was when I really wanted to know which characters are in brawl.

Now I know, and it realy takes all the magic of the upcoming game away. I also found somewhere how to unlock them all, but I didn't read it.
 
I sort of agree, in a way I think I would rather not know, but knowing it is very interesting. And like mentioned above it is sort of like growing up.
 
"If you don't want to know about new things yet to be revealed, don't look em up on the internet"

There, that just about sums this thread up.
 
I saw, if you don't want to be spoiled by any new Nintendo or Pokemon news don't go on a huge Pokemon forum or site where the news is obviously displayed. You're just asking to be spoiled. If you don't want to look, then don't come onto a site or a part of a site you know that there is probably going to be news.

I frankly, like to hear the news earlier. I get so excited seeing new Pokemon or hearing new things about games. I love to know what's coming up and everything about it
