Any idea why this is so low? IIRC this was explicitly confirmed in its announcement. Are people expecting a technicality to cause this to resolve “no” (like some minor sub-area that is outside the city) or is there some news I missed?

If you were just watching Pokemon Day and saw Champions announced, I have a market on it!

For anyone looking for a market on "which Pokémon will get new Mega Evolutions":

Just thought that the @traders on the ">5 new Mega Evolutions" question would be interested in the above! :D

Just checking - this includes Megas, right?

@PaintspotInfez I’m going to say no to distinguish it from the 5 New Megas option

bought Ṁ5 NO

Got it! also, Oh shoot, then I guess I've gotta bet it WAY down, then

Ah man for a second I thought this was something.

@CertaintyOfVictory ...What do you mean?

bought Ṁ100 YES

Pikachu is featured prominently in the trailer, no way it's not catchable.

@Gabrielle there have been 3 pokemon catchable in every main game, psyduck magikarp magnemite, pikachu isnt one of them (wasn't in unova) so there is a slight chance

@mattyb when were you thinking of this being called? E.g. one month after release?
