Pokemon Predictions

Pokemon Predictions

9/23/07 – Ok, our first prediction! Since the Dragon Trio includes Giratina as well, and we already have two of them, Dialga and Palkia, I’m assuming that, like Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald, there will be a version about Giratina. That being said, Giratina’s gem is the girasol (like Dialga’s diamond and Palkia’s pearls), or fire opal. I doubt it being called Fire Opal version, and Girasol Version’s a bit hard to say. Most likely it will be called Opal Version, with Girasol Version coming in second and Fire Opal Version in last place. That wraps up our prediction this month, so see you next time!

 

12/14/07 - Now for Pokemon Strategy’s next Prediction! There is a Darkrai shadow (an outline of Darkrai, filled in with black) that appears on the front page of Pokemon.com!! This is very similar to the appearing and disappearing Manaphy Egg about a month before the Manaphy Code and 9th Movie were released…! If you wait approximately 5 seconds, a Darkrai shadow with a purple aura will fade in, float down the screen to one of the three ‘link tabs’ (it changes every time), pause there for about 20 seconds, then zoom off in a blur of darkness back where it came from. This could mean one of many things:

-the US will get the Darkrai ticket soon

-the US will get the 10th Movie soon

-the US will get the Movie Darkrai (nickname: “Eigakan” in Japan) (this is assuming the tenth movie, if not both, of the above happen) soon

 More proof that Darkrai is liable to be released any time now is the announcement by Pokemon USA about a new TCG set; ‘Diamond and Pearl: Great Encounters’!

Here is the description:

This obviously means that Darkrai may be released in early January, followed by the release of its Trading Card and Set. (speaking of which, the Starter Decks are going to be called Eternal Time (Dialga), Infinite Space (Palkia), and Endless Night (Darkrai)) This also means that the movie will probably be released in late January or early February. So:

-Darkrai release: Late December - Early January

-Darkrai Event?: Mid January

-Darkrai Movie: Late January - Early February

-Diamond and Pearl: Great Encounters: Mid February - Late February
