The July issue of Corocoro has begun leaking and showcases lots of new information. It’s worth noting that these names are the Japanese version and may change in the English version of the games.
- Pansy (パンジー) is set to appear in the Pokémon anime on July 18 with the riding Pokémon, Gogoat. Pansy is a journalist working for a company in Lumiose City.
- Viola (ビオラ) is a Gym Leader in Hakudan City (ハクダンシティ), and is a photographer, it is suggested she is a Bug Type Leader.
- The town you begin your Kalos adventure in is known as Asame Town (アサメタウン).
- If you pick the male character, the female protagonist seems to be called Selena/Serena.
- Alternatively, if you pick the female character the male character is known as Callum in game.
- Sana (サナ)is a new female character, she will begin her Pokémon adventure with you and two other characters from Asame Town.
- The large guy is Thierno (ティエルノ) and short guy is Troba（トロバ）they also begin their adventure from Asame Town.
- The player befriends these three characters along with the character the player did not pick.
- Vivillons evolutionary line has been revealed. Kofukimushi (コフキムシ) evolves into Kofuuari (コフーライ), which finally evolves into Vivillon. Either one could be Spewtal
- Furabebe (フラベベ) is a pure Fairy type Pokémon and is classified as the ‘Single Flower Pokémon’. It is said that when Furabebe is born it finds a flower and looks after it for the rest of its life. It learns the move Fairy Wind.
- Shishiko (シシコ) is the lion cub Pokémon. It is Fire/Normal type and learns a new move called War Cry, which lowers the opponents attack.
Keep checking back as we update with more!
And here I thought the info would be the same as E3! We are getting sooooo spoiled, I love it!
I was thinking the same thing and I want the spoiler to STOP NOW (or not).
Like seriously who is the douchebag going around downvoting everything? This is the HAPPIEST comment on here and some Scrooge Mcduck has come along and thought ‘no, I don’t like positivity in the world’. Anyway.
THIS IS THE GREATEST TIME TO BE A POKEFAN YOU GUYS.
It certainly is! 😀 Now if they work out migration, HELL YES!
THE LAST BATCH OF NEWS IS HERE.
(Or if Pokemon Smash will show something new, oh wait.. they seldom do…)
Smash will probably reveal Spewpa.
never mind the pre-evolutions were just announced lol
It looks like Xavier will be picking up chicks!
If you look closely at the anime pic, there is also a Helioptile in there.
1st Gym Bug? C’mon, Bug deserves a bit more of love. No Gym/Elite Four in Gen I and Gen III, 2nd Gym in Gen II, 1st Elite Four in Gen IV and 3rd Gym in Gen V. Bug Type deserved 4th-7th Gym, not 1st…
say that to the dark types. hahaha
Yes, but also Dark Type was Elite Four in every Gen (not counting, of course, Gen I) except Gen IV. But yeah, we need 4th-8th Gym for Dark Type…
For Me I’ll have Dark as 7th Gym and Bug as 2nd E4 Member.
I love Bug type too…but,Well, at least we won’t see rock type in the first(…)
Judging by those curls in their hair and the matching eye colours, I wouldn’t be surprised if Pansy and Viola are related
4 NEW POKEMON!

the flower is apparently pure fairy and not grass/fairy smh
Amazing Pokemon but I would love a Grass/Fairy type here!
perhaps evolutions.
I think it’s like Farfetch’d. It’s not grass either.
Maybe Furabebe will combine with it’s flower in some way when it evolves? Becoming Fairy/Grass. It might even have different forms depending on the type of flower it’s holding (I read somewhere that they can hold different kinds) It could be something like Shellos/Burmy.
I’m thinking it will evolve into grass/fairy.
yes! A lion cub 😀 No offense, Luxray line, but you were to lions what Growlith/Arcanine were were to dogs.
On a side note, that fairy thing is too adorable for words. Very Fantasia-y.
the lion cub looks too cartoony. hope it becomes cooler when it evolves
yes, its eyes are kinda ridiculous
I can’t wait to see it’s evolution. I’m really hoping for something amazing with him.
I cant take it! So much awesome stuff coming all at once XD
Sorry guys but im worry to say this but my mind says its uglyyyy -.-
Anyways, a trailer or something on the 15th may do the cure…
theres a fire lion on serebii as well as a flower fairy-esque pokemon!
I was saying where are the bad designs and here they come.
What? Did I just read “Bitch bitch bitch, I’m so ungrateful for all this news. I can’t keep an open mind.” ?
No, you were reading a comment made by belmad 🙂
No you just read an opinion.
Lol at the irony of cannot keeping an openmind. You cannot keep an open mind for different opinions, can you…
Watch some of these Pokemon with “bad designs” have great stats, moves and what not. People hated on Vanilliuxe and Chandelure because of their looks but their Stats heavily outweighed their appearence. Always rember, don’t judge a book by it’s cover.
I don’t care if Vanilluxe have good stats or not. I’m talking about designs here. For me Design>Stat anyway.
I hate Vanilluxe and will still hate it if it has 700 stat total.
That’s very shallow -_-
Actually you are the one being shallow by saying that. I have said that for me designs are more important, stats cannot be a justification of a bad design. This is my point of view, this is how I look at Pokemon. I love how amazing ideas can turn into Pokemon, how good designs there can be. For me it’s all about creativity. In the end it’s hard do design a Pokemon but it’s easy to give it stats.I see it this way.
I’m not being shallow because as I said before basing a Pokemon by their looks rather than stats is the same thing as judging a book by it’s cover. Looks are only the graphical aspect of the game, the stats are apart of the actual gameplay. As a gamer I value the gameplay more than the graphics unlike most of the people who were easily impressesd with the various trailers at E3 despite most of them not showing any gameplay what so ever.
That’s how you look at Pokemon and I explained above how I look at Pokemon. It’s not about judging book by its cover, it’s about appreciating different contents.
I know I’m gonna have Pokémon withdrawal symptoms after this huge leakage of news
I’ve just realised that the fairy type thingy is actually not the whole flower…durrr
the new fire lion just may be the redemption we need in case fennekin fails to impress dont you think?
I already have Fletchling as a back up if Fennekin’s evo sucks. 🙂

I thought this would be a repeat of E3, what an amazing week for Pokemon news!
I think the little flower fairy is adorable. The flower definitely doesn’t look like part of its actual body, I wonder if it just goes around possessing flowers or inhabiting them?
corocoro says that the flower is 0.1m and 0.1m. It’s tied with joltik for size and gastly/haunter for weight.
new “voltorb” of the generation? or foongus/amoongus
I’m the manliest man in the world so it is my duty to say that
THE LITTLE FAIRY WOTH THE FLOWER IS THE CUTEST THING EVER!!
REAL MEN LOVE FURABEBE <3
That needs to be on a t shirt.
It’s like My Little Pony around here… but with Furabebe.
Totally agree! I love how it holds the stigma thing! <3
STAMEN
Yes so i’m not the only guy who thought that Fiary looks so damn CUTE !!!
Calm down, Jorgen Von Strangle.
Obviously I didn’t believe that there would be a Fairy-type and I thought it sounded stupid. But I have to say, I do really like Furabebe! It’s new and original and different than what we’re used to seeing! Except I was looking at fanart of it, and, erm… does it have just the one leg? That, in my opinion, looks really dumb, so I hope that it has two legs. If it has just one, it won’t stop me from liking it, but it just looks weird to me lol. I think I’ll eventually warm up to Fairy-type though, depending on the new Fairy-types this generation reveals~ I don’t think that Marill or Jigglypuff should be Fairy though, I don’t see how they’re fairies.
I have to say, I really like the new Pokemon revealed so far, generation 6 is looking great! I’m a little sketchy on Clauncher though, it looks, kinda not like a Pokemon, I dunno. It’ll probably have a really badass evolution though, which I’m excited for~
I hope she doesn’t evolve she’s just too cute
yay i always wanted a fire lion :3 so cute ,and the tiny fairy is adorable ,That is what you expect a fairy to look like
Hey the trainers on the page with the protagonist, all look like they have different pokemon devices. The first guy has a poketch (or a cgear), the second looks like he has a pokenav and the third person looks like she has a pokegear on her bag. (maybe they’re from sinnoh(unova), hoenn and johto respectfully.
I was wrong. CoroCoro proved needed.
since Shishiko is fire/normal and Helioptile is electric/normal, I can’t help but wonder if they will be version exclusives
i hope not…. i really want both :/ but if so i would assume shishiko is with Y and helioptile is in X..
I hope not i kinda want both 🙂
me too I want both 🙂
I’m already planning on getting both games, ALL THE POKEMON!
If they are I’m more likely to go to the version Helioptile goes to.
If we have 3 characters starting their journey alongside us (presumably rivals) and the opposite gender as a character too, then how are starters going to be dished out?
yesterday they said the “rivals” won’t be exactly like how past ones were, it focuses more on connections with a bunch of friends, not just them.
the rivals might have originated from other regions, look at their pokemon devices. One has poketech (c-gear), one has a pokenav and another has a pokegear.
so they might have starters from those regions maybe 😛
do any of them have a poketch?? from DPP
The leaker said… no wait… good point.
There’s the possibility that part of the leak was false. Tai La Ree, claiming to be the leaker, said the info is false, but he wasn’t involved in the leaks. Read the full story here (http://www.pokebeach.com/forums/thread-1-last-of-the-x-and-y-insider-information-5-18?pid=2437410#pid2437410) and here (http://www.pokebeach.com/forums/thread-1-last-of-the-x-and-y-insider-information-5-18?pid=2437465#pid2437465).
Kind of hoping that we could name our rival but as of yet it doesn’t look that way. Maybe they will have good story lines and diverse personalities to make up for that. I like them more than 3rd and 5th gen rivals design wise.
I agree i especially like Tieruno’s Vanilite shirt! 🙂
Sana is the girl from the first trailer
http://imageshack.us/a/img560/2597/imageqnqd.jpg
I swore she was the girl from black/white 2 and she ends up looking extremely close like her.
Oh yeahh, she doesn’t stick close to your ass like Mira did in DPP.
Can I say I REALLY like what they did with the friends? They actually look diverse. Along with the fact your character doesn’t have to look the same for every game, the friends all have different statures and sizes, we have a fat friend and a short one…i dont think we ever had any fat or short main characters.
Yes, I agree, they look interesting. Almost as if they could be the cast of an animé of their own! (Feel free to do that, Pokémon Company.)
