On February 27, 2022, the 26th anniversary of the release of the Pokémon series, after a series of mobile games and DLC news, Ishihara Brought a news that Pokémon players around the world are eagerly awaiting: the orthodox ninth generation sequel "Pokémon Zhu/Purple" will be released in the winter of 2022!
As was the usual practice of the release of the orthodox works of the past, this news came with the arrival of the teaser PV and the new generation of Mizoya.
And the treasure scholars who are never absent.
The long-held treasure scholars quickly analyzed the video frame by frame, trying to find clues about the new work in even the corners and corners of a certain picture. So, let's see what they have achieved, and some of the conclusions are quite reasonable:
The first thing that most treasure scholars have reached a consensus is that the background prototype of this work is most likely in Spain.
This conjecture is not unfounded, as there are several places in the video that are nakedly suggested. The first is that there is such a map on the wall of the "real world".
If you zoom in and look closely, you will find that its border line basically coincides with Spain.
Fast-forward the video to the protagonist's home, there is also a hanging painting on the wall, this time the shoreline is much clearer, very close to the Iberian Peninsula in the southwest corner of Europe.
If you think that the map is not convincing enough, then you can look at a few hanging paintings in the protagonist's home, the leftmost portrait is the famous white architectural town of Mijas in Spain, the paintings on the stairs are the windmill landscape of the La Mancha region, and the Spanish dance art genre "Flamenco".
It's hard to say that so many similarities are a coincidence that the treasure scholars continued to analyze them on the premise that more "evidence" was quickly discovered.
Given a large close-up of this building, it is difficult not to think of the Roman Catholic church "Sagrada Familia" in Barcelona, Catalonia;
The style of this square is like the "Park of Quail" in Spain;
The logos that appear at the end of the video are red and purple fonts with a layer of yellow strokes, and it just so happens that the flag of the Second Spanish Republic is red, yellow and purple.
In this way, the evidence on the background is considered to be a consensus.
However, the fields where treasure scholars haunt not only geography and history, but also linguistic phonoacoustics are also involved.
First of all, they believe that the pronunciation of Pokémon's name suggests its skills and personality to some extent, such as with evolution, the probability of sound obstruction in the name will increase, and the name of the mild Pokémon contains more vowels.
A paper titled "The Effect of Vowels and Phononic Voices when Pokémon Are Named."
Therefore, according to the pronunciation of this generation of Mimiya Shinye Meow (ニャオハ Nyaoha), The Fire Crocodile (ホゲータ Hogeeta), runshui duck (クワッスkuwassu), which has fewer obstructive sounds and a rounded pronunciation, will be biased towards assistance, and runshui duck may become the main output force.
Some people were also pleasantly surprised to find that The New Leaf Meow will be the first Pokémon in Pokémon's 26-year history to end with a "ha" sound, which will undoubtedly greatly increase the richness of the Pokémon Solitaire game, which is gratifying and congratulatory.
Speaking of skills, we all know that each generation of canons will add a special battle system to enrich the gameplay of the game. Some people have noticed that the flower design of "ン" in the logo of the past generation often hints at the characteristic battles of this generation, such as the rainbow color in "Pokémon X/Y" represents the evolution of Mega, the poké ball in "Pokémon Sun/Moon" means Z move, and in "Pokémon Zhu/Purple", the logo appears as a hexagonal ice crystal.
It's hard to tell what this ice crystal means, but now that the appearance change, skill enhancement, appearance change & skill enhancement are all there, maybe it means a new direction - pokémon fusion?
However, this means that the design cost is multiplied, and the possibility of realization is not high, so it only stays at the stage of conjecture.
According to the screenshot in the video, some players believe that the Pokémon attributes of this game are still 18 kinds, and there are no new changes.
However, the next analysis of the evolutionary form of the Imperial Three Houses, everyone is a little uncertain.
In previous Pokémon works, Mizoya's appearance often oscillated left and right on the routes of "cute" and "ugly with personality".
No one knows why the cute rabbit in Pokémon Sword/Shield turned into a bad rebellious rabbit, and players who choose concubines in advance often want to cry without tears after seeing the evolved form.
Therefore, for the most popular "new leaf meow" in the Imperial Three Houses, countless players began to pray that it would not evolve into a standing form, and even launched the "topic of not letting the new leaf meow stand up" on Twitter.
A tweet that reads "All Mankind Prays That New Leaf Meow Doesn't Evolve into a Standing Form" received nearly 120,000 likes.
After all, such a cute cat, no one wants to see it become like this:
Therefore, some people analyzed and summarized the imperial three families of the past, and believed that the new leaf meow was still promising--the original form was a four-legged grass Pokémon, and after evolution, it was also the appearance of four-legged landing on the ground.
From the perspective of probability, the Fire Imperial Three Families bear most of the evolutionary obligations of "standing and walking", and there has been one in the water system, but there is no precedent for the grass system.
From the overall morphological analysis, the fire system is often derived from the dry branch, the grass system is close to the ancient creatures, the water system is based on the theme of weapons, and the hope that the new leaf meow has been cute has been much greater.
If you allow it, three would be nice to evolve like the following:
However, perhaps it has been too many times to be hemped over the years, and many players are pessimistic, thinking that the following evolutionary hypothetical diagrams are still more likely.
"Absolutely like that"
It seems that the evolutionary route can only wait for the official further announcement.
So this time, which one did you choose?
