spmb has now updated with details of someone’s personal experience with the BW Demo. I have translated the details below for you all~ (Don’t bother watching the video it is almost all text and if you can’t read Japanese it won’t do you much good)
- Demo takes place in and around Sekka City
- When you start the demo you get one of the starters, Shikijika, and Zoroa
- Which starter you get and what season you play during is random
- Mijumaru has a high attack stat (they speculate that it’s final evolution is indeed Water/Fighting)
- Shell Blade: Physical / Base power: 75 / Accuracy: 95 / Slight chance to lower defense
- Pokabu has high attack and HP but low defense
- Nitro Charge: Physical / Base power: 50 / Accuracy: 100 / Chance to raise your speed
- Grass Mixer: Special / Base power: 65 / Accuracy: 90 / Chance to lower opponent’s accuracy [Very similar to the attack ‘Octazooka’]
- Shikijika knows the attacks: Leech Seed, Take Down, Scary Face, and Double Kick
- Zoroa‘s ability Illusion is confirmed to only affect appearance, does not emulate type or attacks. It knew the attacks Fury Swipe and Faint Attack
- Darumakka is confirmed as being in the demo and is Hihidaruma’s prevo. *It doesn’t seem to have arms or legs shown at all times. First image.
- Basurao has a rectangular jaw with the top half of its body being green and the bottom half being grey. Writer compared it to Carvanha. Second image.
- Tabunne is the 3rd image and is the normal type we heard about yesterday.
Nice to know a little more about the demo that we’re getting leaks from! Wish that it could’ve confirmed the existence of Wakoishi/plant pokemon though… that’s all for tonight though 😀
UPD2: Frankly I believe that the Tabunne screenshot COULD be fake because the pokemon we saw back in early July matches the description that people have been talking about much better: link. Just had to say that after this Wakoishi/Plant fiasco.
<3 pokejungle
ps- Anyone else wish they would’ve said what Tsutaaja’s highest stat was? =[












Mistletoe Seed? Wonder what it does ~
Yes, I do wish they would’ve said Tsutaaja’s stats, it’s my favourite starter <33
The attack you reffered to as “Mistletoe Seed” is actually an existing attack with the name “Leech Seed”.
You are correct :> My mistake~
Well so much for that idea.
Doesn’t matter, it can use Energy Ball, and can turn grass moves into move strength. It’s one fun fawn, that should evolve.
Hey pokejungle!
Looks like I’m first to comment! Yay!
Hmm nice confirmation!
I’m also curious what stat was high for Tsutaja.
Of course I’m still curious of dex numbers. Could they capture anything in the demo? But Shikijika and Zorua make fun partners. My theory is that Mistletoe Seed can start infatuation on the next turn like Yawn.
More surprises demo!
P.S. I did this comment on DSi.
Ok 3rd is better than nothing.
I’m curious what fishing will get us in this game, not just Basurao.
No oldies means PLENTY OF NEW and that’s cool. Always new discoveries. I can imagine Ash amazed at the sheer amount of foreign beings to encounter and befriend.
If the last stage of Mijumaru is Water/Fighting then, I am definitely going to pick it as my starter.
I knew Mijumaru will become a Water/Fighting when it evolves.
Im happy that the plant owl did not get confirmed, theres still chance its fake 😡
If I were to guess, based on the other Pokemon, Smugleaf has high Sp. Attack and Speed but is fragile, kinda like Alakazam? Nice job on the quick work. 😀
So Shell Blade is a Water-type Crush Claw, Nitro Charge is a Fire-type Charge Beam except for Speed, and Grass Mixer is a Grass-type Octazooka with slightly better accuracy. They seem to lower/raise whatever would help the Pokemon best based on their stats.
I hope it’s a water type crush claw (50% is hardly a slight chance). But I’m glad to see it has high attack!
yayy new info!!!”:DDDDDDDDDDDDD
but why the leakers hatin’on tsutaaja? DX
we need some tsutaaja info!!
Going out on a limb and saying Smugleaf has high Sp. Atk and Speed. I also think he’ll be part electric (unique typing FTW)
Thank you for this information. It’s a shame we haven’t gotten confirmation yet though. I do hope these aren’t fakes.
who is smugleaf?
it’s a very popular/widespread fan name for Tsutarja.
I hope tsutaja is the usable version of Sceptile, like Infernape and Blaziken
and i want it to be dragon type, it’d be epic =P

Tabunne, Basurao and Darumakka.
found by slowkingsley from serebiiforums
The starter we get is random?
I thought there was a video of you picking your starter though…Maybe that was of Cheren and Bel picking before you :S
It’s during the demo that they’re random I get it now…
anyway more demo pics have leaked with new pokes, and I saw some hands and feet on darumakka.
Why do the 3 new picutures seem to contradict a few of the old pictures?
I’m talking about the ones under the spoiler tag on Serebii’s front page’s newest article. http://serebii.net/index2.shtml
Basuaro is shown as bright green with a grey top, when in the earlier picture most definetly appears grey with a red top.
Tabuun doesn’t seem to be of the same quality as the other sprites. It really looks like something someone could have thrown together on paint within an hour.
Also Darumakka is shown with…arms and legs, despite all other pictures of him showing him as nothing but a head.
Anyone think that maybe these new screens are fake based on this?
I don’t think so. Darumakka probably rolls up into the daruma shape before or during battle, so we might just be seeing a different animation pose a Darumakka.
Basuaro’s appearance matches the descriptions of the report of this post. The earlier picture might have been a bit messed up, or else it could a gender difference thing like Hippopotas had.
I’ve never seen Tabunne before, but it matches the earlier descriptions I heard – pink and white center.
The SPMB blog that was linked to in this post said that Darumakka’s limbs do fold in. Pokejungle mistranslated
well either way, Darumakka just got awesomer*
lol
Yes, yes I did :>
Tabunne is so cute~~~!
I can’t wait to find out if Mijumaru will be part fighting down the road. I hope so!! 🙂
first image. ダ? グ?
グ?
Tabunne looks…strange, haha.
I agree. Tabunne looks more like a Digimon to me (Simple, more anime-ish, body structure, sucks xD). I hate Digimon.
I think that it may be fake. It just doesn’t look like a Pokemon. I hope so.
~Prof. W.
can any body tell me whomis smugleaf? never heard og him, is he that catripillar or what?
Smugleaf is just a very popular/widespread fan name for Tsutarja.
fan name for tsutaaja. xDD
he got the name from his appearence looking so smug. ><
In the screen shot with the player using Pokabu and Shikijika, what are the attacks in the lower screen?
Nitro charge and smog. Nothing new.
Fire/Poison would be kind of bomb. Have we had that typing before?
Nothing that there has been so far springs to mind.
Fire/poison would admittedly really rock!
P.S. Would it be possible for me to get editing features please?
During the corocoro scans I had so much info to give in some cases AGES before the other sites had it translated, yet I was unable to put it up for hours ;__;
(Thanks to Ozy for coming to the chatroom and putting up some of my stuff eventually though! He was busy translating himself yet was kind enough to come listen to what I had to say! :D)
the attacks are “Nitro Charge” and “Smog” look like it’s pokabu’s moves. 😀
NC is on the left while Smong is on the right. 😀
Ah thanks for that guys.
dudeee i’m liking all of these!! :DD
cheren’s fish actually doesn’t look to bad! 😀
and tabunne…>///<
Haha, I bet Team Rocket eventually get Tabunne!
Up until now they’ve got other pun-tastic Pokemon in order to make their motto’s more humorous.
Wobufett/Sounansu- sounds like (That’s right!)
Mime.Jr/Manene- when it says its name in a certain way comes out as “maa ne, maa ne” which sounds like (I guess so, I guess so) [In a doubting way]
In the Japanese version of the anime this Pokemon would often say this at humorous times, which naturally didn’t make it to the English versions. (Except maybe Wynaut sounds like “Why not!?’ lol!?)
How is Tabunne a pun?
Ummm it’s a pun on the Japanese word 多分 and the particle ね. I means maybe. I don’t know if the pokemon will have any special characteristics that make it related to the word or not.
As PokeJungle said it is indeed “Tabun” and “ne”
It means like “Probably” but with no context it sounds a little doubtful.
Translating “tabun ne’ whilst exaggerating it in order to get across the nuance would probably end up something along the lines of “Well yeah, Probably I guess”
Theres a hint that the speaker may not believe so deep down though (out of context anyway!)
Grass Mixer: Special / Base power: 65 / Accuracy: 90
Yeah!! Nitro Charge BP 50 – great!
Pokabu learns Smog, a poison type… :O
Cyndaquil and Houndour learns the move naturally. Shouldn’t be much of an indicator… hopefully?
Exactly. That’s like saying “OMG Staryu knows Gyro Ball it must evolve into a part Steel type!”
~Prof. W.
There sure is alot of pink pokemon this gen. And I like Darumakka even more now that he has limbs.
sorry bros, put no effort into the plant and emonga sprite, but i put some effort into the wakoishi fake
but yeah you guys were right, fake shit is fake. hope you guys enjoyed it anyway, lol’d @ some of the responses to plant.
called Nourishana btw
oh yeah, darumakka sprite was a clone of the official.
‘grats on making it to Serebii’s ‘New Pokemon’ page though :]
shell Blade is the most powerful of the three, but the attack is cool grass mixer. Nitro charge is the least powerful, but raise the speed, accuary is 100% lol.
Incinerate a lot of cool victiny … that it burns all the berries that takes a team, we will have to see what has power and accuary …
wat about tsujaja
