My good friend Kriffix has a large amount of evidence to show that this fellow above is indeed fake.
Here’s what he said: “The above Pokemon “Zennuki” is supposed to be based on a Tanuki (a racoon dog) which is a big part of Japanese mythology. They are known to be tricksters and use their testicles as weapons as can be seen this this famous Ghibli movie Pom Poko (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4_Nmco2dtE). I however regret to inform you that this above Pokemon is fake. The poster on 4ch says he found it on 2ch. I have searched all recent posts and have been unable to find his source. To top this off, it contains a flipped picture of a previous screenshot. Here is the original: http://www.serebii.net/blackwhite/plasmamunna.jpg”
Bummer guys, it seems that the Tanuki is fake. 🙁 Aw well, stick around and hopefully the full scans will leak soon.
Many thanks to Kriffix for solving this problem! And to [SPP] for providing the image in Kriffix’s evidence!
