Dec 9
> Game Freak Uploads picture to Twitter
> Picture is setup similar to another picture posted that hinted towards upcoming gen7 announcement
> New picture contains Game Freak logo, Globe showing North and South America, a Christmas Tree with two Mews, and a self with Plusle and Minun
> People suspect Plusle and Minun to hint at gen 8 titles being "Plus and Minus" (+/-)
Dec 14
> Pokemon Twitter uploads new pic to kick off the Holidays
>In pic Pikachu, Eevee, and Mew in red and green Christmas attire
>Pikachu is also holding a scepter
Dec 29
> Some anon makes a /vp/ titled "Okay enough bullshit. Time for the real stuff. I don't care if you don't believe me, you'll know soon enough"
> Anon claims to be a leaker
> Anon claims that the titles are "Crown and Scepter"
Dec 29 (cont.)
> Pokemon twitter uploads another picture of Holiday Pikachu and Eevee
>Pikachu is still in same outfit holding same scepter
> Both are surrounded by holiday desserts
> Right in front of Pikachu there happens to be two candy canes arranged in a cross
Is this to say the "Crown" and "Scepters" will be the titles?
> Maybe
> Plusle and Minun could just be nods to the games being on the Switch with the whole "Red +/ Blue -" theme.
> But with Pikachu holding a scepter of all things and the formation of the candy canes the "+/-" symbolism could still be in play
> A scepter is usually a straight staff which can be symbolized by the minus sign (-)
> An item often paired with the scepter is not a crown but a Globus Cruciger (i.e. the orb)
> The orb is simply an orb with a cross on top, a cross which can easily be seen as the plus sign (+)
> Both scepter and orb are held in hand during coronations/ crowing ceremonies (making the crown the third member)
Again this is not to say what titles will be, but piecing together what they could be.
