Today at the RTR prerelease, one of my friends pulled a Hallowed Fountain and another got a Steam Vents, so I know the shocklands are in Return to Ranvica. Do you think the rest of them will be in Gatecrash? I don't think it was confirmed, but it would be awesome.

But the uncounterable cycle was not completed, so I don't know if we can be sure...
There's a difference between not completing an uncounterable cycle, which likely won't bother people as much, and not reprinting the rest of the shockland cycle, which might prompt people to riot and storm WotC's headquarters in outrage. The rest of the shocklands will definitely be there.

There is no way that they'd print 5/10 shocklands in an arbitrary order and leave the other guilds short on land options. Never happened before and never will.
They only printed 5 M10 lands for a while and then printed the last five in a random block, so it could happen.
It's different when you're sticking to a typical cycle of either all allied or all enemy colors (see fetches) and dealing with core sets. If WotC prints a mixed group of allied/enemy duals that are obviously a cycle and puts only some of them in the first set, it's clear that the others will be in the second set. Besides, Wizards can only lose by not printing the remaining shocks ASAP. There's public demand for them and it's dictated by logic and balance that they will be present in Gatecrash, even if they weren't announced.

Epochalyptik from http://tappedout.net/ EDH isn't about what you play, it's about who you play with.

Not in this case, no. There's 0 chance that they don't print them, further backed up by other posts here that previews of sorts for them have already been shown. M10 lands are, again, a much different story than the Ravnica shocks, which represent the guilds. M10 lands are only there to be duals, Ravnica shocks are there to fix in a widely multicolor environment and embody their guild's colors.
Okay, thank you! I am glad there is picture evedence. I just wanted to make sure they were really confirmed, not just wishful thinking or questionable logic. Thanks everyone!

They have already shown us the art for the shocklands in gatecrash. The only reason I can think of for the shocklands NOT being reprinted in gatecrash, is the possibility that WOTC goes out of business before it happens.
