Now, I'm not here to argue the validity (or lack of ) of the starter leaks that we've seen lately. I'm pretty neutral. I just think that The arguments have been a little one sided for the denialfags, and I thought i'd be nice an throw them a bone. Here's a peice of evidence i haven't seen yet.

The leaks clearly show Mallow next to Ash, however Ash doesn't look the same, specifically his hat. His hat in the recent trailer is undeniably different from any portion of the anime so far, as well as the leaks. In paint, i outlined what his might look like in the leaks, and its clearly much different than the anime trailer.

Leakfags claim that the leaks are valid and that the starter will not change, due to Mallow's FINAL design being present, meaning that the starters must also be FINAL. If Mallow's anime design was finalized, why is Ash different from his finalized version in the anime.
