Greninja confirmed
Leaker on Neogaf who's reading off of the SA leaks says it's Water / Dark. Water Shuriken is a 2-5 hit multi hit attack with 15 BP and priority o_o

ugh...oh well...IT BETTER BE ABLE TO STICK THAT DAMN THING BACK IN
Water/Dark?!?! That's pretty awesome! Now let's see some stats! Beginning to settle into Team Froakie, but Chespin's final evo can still wow me
Has SA disclosed the secondary typing of Greninja?
Edit: nvm, question was answered in mod's edit.

Fire Psychic, Water Dark, Grass.... Fighting?
I wonder if they're giving the starters a signature move, of sorts, this time around. Both Mystical Fire and Water Shuriken seem, flavor wise, tailored to Delphox and Greninja
Would make sense... We have the Rogue and the Mage. All we need now is the Fighter.
That's what I previewed, because the type matchup advantage will go double way.
im more interested in what will be the Trinity Moves of this generation. We need Physical ones
BTW, am I the only one here excited ribbons are there, meaning contests are prolly back?
Also, wow, whatever leaker on SomethingAwful is taking these pictures really needs to clean his 3DS
Edit: We have visual confirmation on Water / Dark

Stat check on Greninja please? I am pretty interested right now.

Considering that Greninja has probably been grinded a bit to get it early, it will probably have a good amount of EVs on it, as it will have battled a lot of weaker pokémon. Stats will appear to be higher than what they really are if EVs are not taken into consideration.
Still, a rough calculation will have some validity, of course.

Man, greninja has some impressive stats. From what I can make out from the colours, that is a mild nature
My approximations assuming around 60 EVs, 15 IVs
hp - 73
att - 85
def - 65
spAt - 103
SpDef - 60
spd - 118

From the looks of it, Greninja is a speedy fragile mixed attacker compared to Dolphox's Special Attacker with decent speed and High Special Defense. Chespin's final form will probably be a slow physical attacker with high defense then.
Stone RG
Megas are broke
Umm, correct me if mi wrong, but isnt that Mild nature? I recon the blue tone on Def, but i cant recon the red tone no Any stat, bar SpA which im not even sure of. Oh Well, i was expecting a reverse triangle 4th gen style where each starter had an advantage against the other 2 in a way.
Seems to me like Greninja is super fast, and a generic frail Special attacker, idgaf, i chose froakie the moment i saw the starters.

We shouldn't assume otherwise. Super Training is probably just an alternative method of EVing.
On the other hand... Man, is Greninja frail or what?
