Pokemon Sunday News: Yanappu + Vid

Yanappu 「ヤナップ」:

  • Grass Monkey Pokemon
  • Type: Grass
  • Ability: Gluttony
  • Height: ~2ft
  • Weight: 23.1lbs
  • New Move: Acrobat (Video shows it’s effect in triple battle is to attack a pokemon on the far side of it, not normally possible… also base power is doubled if pokemon isn’t holding item.  Flying type?)
  • ‘Ya’ in its name probably comes from ‘yasai’ (vegetable)
  • Aaaaaaand Kriffix is begging me to add in that it is probably Dento who gets Yanappu (because it was mentioned that an important character in the anime WILL get it)

  1. I actually really like its design. The color scheme of the toy was a little off but it seems to work for this little critter. Hoping for a cool evolution!

  2. Pokejungle, Sabonea Masukippa says its name comes from “Yana” meaning willow tree, not Yasai.

    So I’d guess the romanized name is Yanape.

    • I strongly disagree xD

      “Yanagi” is willow. I’ve never in my life heard it be simply called as “yana”. Plus its a single kanji so the “gi” is not a form of “ki” if thats what he’s thinking.
      The “ya” from yasai has the meaning of vegetable/plantations growth just by itself. Awell as things like “Field” and “greenery”.

      • My apologies, i think he actually did say “yanagi” not just “yana”. I was referinng to the “yana” that appears in the Pokemon’s name, which seems to be more accurate than yasai.

      • I did say it could come from Yanagi.

        And sure “ya” by itself means all that, but the yellow dots and tail leaves remind me of a willow’s flowers and sapling leaves. What can I say?
        Just because 12 hours ago we all assumed it was called Brocco[lli] doesn’t mean it’s a vegetable Pokemon.
        (In saying that broccoli flowers are yellow too…)

        Not that it really matters that much anyway. ;P

        • まぁ、確かにそんなに気にすることないよねw どっちもあり得るし

          ただ、うわさの「ブロッコ」の発表は時間の問題だからヤナップはそいつと関係がある可能性は十分にあると思うよね〜

          どうせ来月までには全てがわかるけどねw

          • ちゃす^^
            せやけどな、どっちも有り得る。ヤナップって、野菜か柳か、どっちにしても、強そうで、楽しみにしとる。SPPfでブスってよう言われとるけど。ww
            ブロッコっていうのね、ブロッコリーとなんか関係があるはずやけど、積み木とか、ボックスという意味がある可能性がないとはゆえへんね。(笑)

            まあ、4週間後全部分かる情報ばっかりなんで別にええと思う。150類以上が登場する希望はあるけど、そない出すわけないやんと思っちまう。
            ところでさ、関西弁が分かるかどうか、分からないが、クリフィックスさんなら、分かると思うが、もし分からないとこがあったら、教えてね。使う理由は2つある。最初、実際に僕だと確かめること。そして、他のヤツが簡単にグーグルとかに入れて、訳せないこと。
            じゃあな

        • なるほど。確かにそんなんじゃグーグルは訳せるわけないやなw

          Myバイトではみんなは関西弁だから言われたことは大体わかるようになったが、個人的にはまだ正しく使える自信なんかないっすw

          あと、ポケモンのほうだけどヤナップは進化したら確かに強くなれそう。
          SPPfでブスって言われてんの!?ww ここじゃ結構人気があるのになwまぁ、人もフォルムもそれぞれってことにしようかw

          ブロッコは本当はRubix Cubeみたいなやつだったらやだなw 
          あっ!でもそれじゃNが好きそうやな!*ahem*
          そないにまちごうてへんでーーー

          Peace out! 😀

  3. Okay, I just realized something. If this thing gets Belly Drum or something, it’s going to WRECK with Salac + Acrobat. It’s gotta have good attack.

    But if Game Freak nerfs it, I’ll be very very sadfaec. Seriously, they would totally do something like that, but they shouldn’t, for the hell of it.

    • English, MF, do you speak it?

      But just for the hell of it:
      “It is necessary pokemon but pretty i like a lot, alfin pokemon sunday reveals somewhat new”

    • Jejejeje pues hablo en español porque es mi idioma natal, pero detodos modos prefiero las paginas de pokemon en ingles porque traen mas informacion que en español 😎
      -Since I speak in Spanish because it is my natal language, but everything manners I prefer the pages of pokemon in English because they bring more information that in Spanish

  4. Hey guys… don’t you think the song we hear at the end of the vid could be the opening for best wishes? Moreover, it sounds like a song from AAA, and since AAA members came for pokemon searcher BW, it could be that.

    but it does look better than the to and the fake art we saw. :DD
