>>37570586there are really only three kinds of leaks
Completely True
Completely False
Mixed info
Mixed infos are presumably for plausible deniability, or due to imperfect info/last minute design changes.
Completely False tend to make bold claims with no attempt to hide.
Completely true tend to either be very small snippets and the posters don't try to make a huge splash, or they're a lot of info but coded/intentionally vague.
We also know from recent news that the company has taken to dividing up its asset creation into division with no significant communication between teams, only placeholder descriptions. Which, in retrospect explains things like why vikavolts appearance and dex don't remotely match its stats.
This explains the leaks pattern. So like Riddler? He probably worked in Dex or Stats. Knew every pokemon but only general concept.
Chinese leaker? Lot of misinfo, but a lot checks out. The misinfo was copied from a deconfirmed leak, it was probably to cover his tracks. The stuff that was right were all mechanical stuffs, probably a coder.
Concept art was obviously initial design. hard to smuggle without being easy to hunt down.
Nebby and UB predicting guy, he clearly worked in story. Didn't know what to call anything but knew what they'd all do.
