What? I don't want a damn Exp All again. This is going to screw with my level/EV micromanaging way too much.

Well then don't use it.

[penguinofhonor]

But I still need a way to share experience and EVs with lower leveled pokemon. I guess I'm restricted to using two pokemon in my party.

[Aklyon]

Theres always the tradition of 'put the pokemon in your first slot'. Being EV-specific is just making extra work unless you actually need it for some sort of cart-based competition.

[Culise]

Or have all of the other Pokemon in your party already EV'd up, or requiring the same EVs.

If anything, this could help accelerate EV training quite a bit.  If you need 4 special sweepers with 252 EV points for whatever reason...
1. Obtain four Power Lenses, equip to Pokemon being EV-trained.
2. Equip lead beater (not being EV-trained) with EXP All. 
3. Go EV train: assuming you get 1 Special Attack EV point for each Pokemon you defeat (e.g. Gastly, Litwick, Magnemite), every Pokemon in your party now gets 5 EV points, summing to 20 EV points for a single battle. 

Instead of taking 32 battles per Pokemon (assuming you used vitamins) for 128 battles total, you now only take 32 battles total.  That and Super Training will definitely ease the way to EV training.

   It will actually make it easier though you will need just the two Pokemon in your team. With it this way you can throw the share on the guy that does the fighting and then throw the correct power item on the Pokemon your training. This way you can have the accelerated power item training without having to have the mon in training be first then switch out for one that can actually battle. Long as there is an area with Pokemon for just the stat you need trained it can go incredibly fast. Also as pointed out if you need multiple Pokemon with the same stat trained as long as you have enough of that power item you can train them all at once.

The dub of Pokemon The Origin will be put online on Nov 15th.

Also apparently it's 4 episodes long? Or the dubbed version is splitting the special into 4 parts. Its open to interpretation until it airs I guess.

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

   It is probably just the first episode which is probably a special long one. From how I understand it and the way the Underground podcast described it the series will be an actual series which will be similar to the Pokemon Manga and you could not fit that in 4 episodes without insane compression and loss of content which would just be a fiasco.

[freeformschooler]

I thought we figured out it wasn't going to be a series?

[Furtuka]

The dub trailer said it's 4 episodes long, and there are other sources agreeing with this. Wikipedia says each part will be animated by a different studio, but I can't find any confirming sources on it that are written in english.

[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

   Hmm it might have been figured out here. I am coming from a different source of information then you guys. Mainly the Underground podcast and since its not an active discussion they could have found it out later what was up but forgot to mention it in the next one they did.

2 MORE WEEKS, ARE YOU HYPE OR ARE YOU HYPE?

Also, apparently there were some "leaks" on a few pokemon. They honestly look fake as fuck, but here they are anyway.

Greninja, Froakie's final evolution. Apparently.

Hawlucha, Flying Fighting. Knows a new move known as flying press. Kinda disspointed this one will be probably fake.

This one deserves its own spoiler. If this is fake ,it's the worst looking fakemon I've ever seen.  If it is real, we now have a Pokemon that will be unquestionably hated by EVERYONE.

Spoiler: BEHOLD BINACLE (click to show/hide)

Supposedly Rock/Water

Also, has everyone decided what version they're going to get. I'm going with X. I have a friend who called dibs on Y.

[Furtuka]

I've seen those before. I'm pretty sure they said those were fake.

[MagmaMcFry]

I dunno, Greninja looks pretty convincing to me.

[Eotyrannus]

I want a Binacle. It's like a Lileep, except it's a barnacle. SO ADORABLE

[Mesa]

AFaIK final starter evos were not to be revealed until the release.
So calling BS on that one.
