I'm nonbinary and I know what that feels like and I think this Short film is inspiring to people who are different and you I give this ten stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🏳️‍⚧️👍🥹

I *need* to find what this game is.

youre so real for that tbh

Ladies and Gentlemen: The Artsy Omni of Pokémon.

i dig it very much, but levelate or compress your stuff

LMAO "STUPID GAMES HAVE STUPID PRIZES, BUT TO STUPID PEOPLE STUPID PRIZES JUST LOOK LIKE PRIZES. AND BOY AM I STUPID-"

the voice actor who play sudowoodo in pokemon need to come to rhode island comic con this year.

gotta say i adore the jotaro hair hat on the boy protag, it genuinely had me fooled until now LMAO

I really came back at the right time

What was the song at the end??

Winnie's Trick

Watching this video because it randomly came up on my feed an then finding out YOU MADE GIRLS WITH HORNS was like a shotgun blast to the face (but positive)

i stopped paying attention 2 minutes in because i went oh shit is that earth wind & fire? that's fucking earth wind & fire

Honestly, Centro deserves to get grilled when they make zero effort on vetting the information, but I guess clout is the only thing that matters.... Fun video, it was a great listen!

I'm glad I was lied to tbh that 'Beta Hilda' is super cute :)

6:39 holy shit "maria robotnik you will always be famous" is me. i am part of this story twice (i also translated a rse brainstorming doc for some of the people actually doing research) edit: 11:31 what the fuck is happening

Question is: Has typhlosion beaten the allegations?

Annoying voice

congrats?

I KNEW there was something off about that shelmet concept. Love your analysis of misinformation, disinformation, and the fun of fakery as well as its follies. Super interesting watch!

I haven't gotten into the video proper yet, but I need to address this one you are a younglinnial midlinnials are staring down the barrel of their 40s, not their 30s a couple years and you'd be a GenZ with the other children that's all I needed to say, please don't take it too harshly I will give algorithm metrics in compensation for my rudeness

And this is why people don't like you, or respect you lol

commenting to say that centro posted several of my fakes as well

i hate that i recognize the bgm

I'm the author of three of those fake leaked Pokémon on that old serebii page 😶 who am i to judge.

I can't believe I'm seeing the original artist behind this art

all i have to say is: based

Joseph Vargas, (aka Centro Pokemon) debería de dudar un poco más acerca de todo lo que hay en 4chan. De todas formas no es lo único en aquello que la comunidad falló, me sentí muy decepcionado cuando tradujeron mal toda la historia de Typhlosion por ejemplo...

Here's the thing: I think fake designs are some of the best parts of any pokemon leaks. I already know going in that anything can be faked if someone is quick enough, and people are lightning fast nowadays. Beta Hilda was one of my favorite non pokemon designs from the leaks. I adore falling in love with "what could've been" designs, and learning some are fake just gives me a new artist to follow. It brings the community together to love something just because we can.

this is amazing, you got a fan out of me from this. amazing work

I've always had a really deep interest beta pokemon content as well as things like fake leaks ever since I was a little kid, and I'm also an artist and used to make my own fake pokemon as a kid all the time, doing something like this has been a passing thought through my mind for SO long 😭 I thought about it again when the spaceworld demo leaks came around, when the gigaleak happened, and also when these leaks came out but just couldn't bring myself to do it despite the thought of centro falling for it being really funny in my head. Even though I know to take their posts with a grain of salt and to look for other sources too because... yeah, these ones did fool me for a bit because they really have that placeholder sprite look to them honestly (like the hgss gym leader ones!), congrats on fooling everyone and they're still awesome designs regardless! ^^ And good luck with your TCG art dream also! I'm with you on that one too

>No mention of the myth scrapped lore So those were real? Damn, i was really hoping you'd confirm they were fake.

It isn't real? Damn looks too great

I might be a little stupid

Freaky Shelmet, my beloved... ...he may have never been official, but he'll always be real in our hearts

You explaining all this feels like a Saturday morning cartoon villain monologuing their plan to trick some goobers on the interwebs. These designs are very nice imo. Good job

Ah interesting. A bit of a shame that it wasn't official, though they are geuninely some really fun designs. I'm not surprised they got spread without any checking considering that some Moncraft designs where just thrown in there and spread without any checking. Though that one was found very quickly. Also just seeing the centro leaks was just funny cause they just kept being like "oops this one is fake oh well". Which is really annoying cause of how hard it is to correct misinformation. Especially cause of people not going back to see what is fake (for good reason, it's a bit odd to just expect something like this to all be fake) went to check cause I didn't realize at first, but been following you for a while. I like your comics.

woah i can’t believe Square Enix STOLE a leaked pokemon 😱😱

Gothorita?

WAIT MR.MEW FROM THE WORLD ENDS WITH YOU???

im 10 minutes in and still don't know what you're talking about. is it my non native english? perhaps it's struggling.

I was doing the same thing shitting up the threads with that fake ass beta dog arceus and centro ate it up lmfao

The crazy thing is, that I still believed that it was a beta sprite, even though I saw a week or so earlier on twitter, some Sugamori sketches of Hilda that showed her in the outfit that was in the game, just with a midriff

Damn, I thought they were real because many other people also posted pictures of those two "beta trainers" and not just Centro, some even before Centro, and also because GF and TPC copyright struck and DMCA'd them and even threatened lawsuits. But I don't think we have any reason to be mad about this or angry because people make mistakes all the time and especially in such a flood of information, information can get mixed up (and I mean that accidental misinformation exists and not everything is intentional, even if people don't believe that accidents exists).

pokemon fans don't play any other games so you probably could pass off mister mew as a real scrapped design LOL

icl i was on /vp/ at the time and thought it was real,

NOOO MY LIFE IS A LIE I LOVE THOSE BETA HILDA AND HILBERT DESIGNS SO MUCH 😭

oh my god, you're a genius i've always loved fake pokemon leaks so much over the years, that Serebii page was my favorite thing in the world as a kid lol - as a result, i've always had a bit of a twisted dream of making a fake leak that fools some people, and this was such a great opportunity! I missed my chance lol G'luck on the TCG art contest dream btw! I'm right there with you, in having that dream. One day!!

What's crazy is I remember seeing the Hilda and Hilbert and thinking "they really don't look like the others...eh, probably just a different artist on the team" and then I find this
