RUMOR: 2ch Posts August CoroCoro Information

pokemon-x-y-rumour-slider

As with any of our rumor posts, we do NOT recommend people put any faith in speculative information. These are used to spark discussion and entertain only.

This month is rather unusual in that CoroCoro will be coming out on Saturday, July 13th not Monday, July 15th. This is due to a Japanese holiday that falls on the latter date. Luckily for us this means that the leaks will potentially come a few days earlier, possibly today even. With that in mind, there has been information posted on what the August issue allegedly contains. This was found on 2ch so be very very skeptical. We’re not taking any of this to heart and we don’t recommend you do either. It is fun to enjoy speculating about what we’ll see though 🙂 Without further ado, here’s the translated info:

New Pokemon

  • Honedge (Steel/Ghost)- The move used by Honedge, seen in the Message to fans at the Japan Expo in France, is called “Soul Smash”
  • Panpura (Grass/Ghost) – Pumpkin ghost Pokemon, may be based on a Jack ‘O Lantern, likes to prank and uses Astonish
  • Yotsurun (Ice/Fighting) – Giant with a horn, uses the move Ice Hammer
  • Syoomai (Water/Bug) – Snail-like evolution of split evolution of Shellos which gains an actual shell
  • Myuujii (Psychic) – Pokemon based on a quarter note which has a move or ability called Battle Melody which lowers opponent’s stats and raises user’s

Interesting, huh? Chatot might get a musical companion!

  1. Woo, Chatot’s across the world are waiting in anticipation, and young shellos everywhere imagine what they could become. Meanwhile I’m terrified of this new Ice Giant

  2. I heard similar rumors to this by a Serebii forums moderator with what he found. What you posted is translated differently or from a different source?

    • I’m guessing it’s differences in translation. post number 949 or ID:3ZNA4rLX0 of this thread is our source:toro.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/gsaloon/1372692359/922

  3. Dat Shellos evolution possibility! 😀 I heard similar rumors to this by a Serebii forums moderator with what he found. Is what you posted translated differently or from a different source? They said the giant/snowman would be Ice/Fighting… What do you think?

  5. I’ve always wanted a Jack o lantern pokemon ever since i saw this fake-mon in Pokemon Vega (pokemon hack) it was so cute! Now the Shellos evo sounds kinda weird since it already has Gastrodon as a evo i think it should b it’s own Pokemon honestly 🙂

  6. If they went with a “Stingy Jake” story based design for the pumpkin pokemon and possible evos I think it would be quite a nice idea. Stingy Jake is basically depicted as a humanoid creature with a pumpkin for a head (with a jack o lantern face, basically the reasoning for jack o lantern carvings today).

    • There’s a lot of times where names from loads of games are the same as a product, brand, etc..
      Plus it’s not even even english named..

      But im not gonna rule out this whole thing being fake either.

    • Abrakadabra….Alakazam!

      I mean ya >> so totally fake because of a possible name….Oh don’t forget our local movie star Pokemon Bruce Hitmonlee and Jackie Hitmonchan.

      • They were people that the majority people knew about. 15000 does not constitute a majority. I also find it more than coincidence when the name and attribute (music) match the real person. I also highly doubt that gamefreak looks through youtube usernames to get pokemon ideas. It was also found on 2ch which casts even more doubt.

        Reply
        • I highly doubt they did any research on the name anyway. Most of the time the name is a description of the Pokemon. Myuuji sounds like Music. They use names that ended up being famous name or phrases. It happens.

  7. It’s WISHFUL THINKING that Game Freak would announce three pokemon with two unique type combinations and one that people have wanted had more coverage in this month’s Coro Coro.

    Definitely fake.

    Reply
    • It’s a new generation and only 20 or so pokemon have been released. It’s quite likely that there would be newer type combos, and they would want to lure people into playing X/Y with that just as much as everything else thats been new. So just based on that, for just 4 pokemon, that’s no a major reasoning for this to be fake. But I’m also not saying it isn’t fake either.

  8. GameFreak giving us a long-awaited Grass/Ghost Jack-O-Lantern? I’m calling this fake just because it is so cliche with all the fanart out there.

    Reply
  9. pokemon has a lot of type that they could put in th enew generation like pokemon type galactic or light, sounds or something like that, and pokemon need to make a generation on the space like the future

  10. I want to know if we could ride a ponita, or arcanine, or something like that it will be really REALLY AWESEOME

  11. Hey. I think someone should make a post telling people to join Mount Moon Community. We get so much activity here, so maybe if more people knew about the forum, there would be more activity there. 🙂

  12. I don’t believe the rumors, but it definitely provides something to speculate on before CoroCoro. I will say I’m hoping we do get a Grass/Ghost Pokemon (Whether it be a pumpkin or whatever). Then we’d have a Water/Ghost, a Fire/Ghost, and a Grass/Ghost!

    I’m not sure I like this rumor’s idea of another evolution to Shellos. There’s already the differentiation of West and East Shellos; don’t really need an evolution other than Gastrodon IMO. I do, however, like the concept of Water/Bug. That’s something one of my favorite Pokemon (Surskit) has. Just a shame Surskit loses that type combo upon evolving.

      • North and south would be hard to incorporate with West and East which I think is why we never got a North/South version. I mean with just East and West you were guaranteed a specific shellos. While North and south would interfere with the spawning of East/West. Its always possible that we can get some, but I don’t think GF is willing to attempt yet.

        Snail version makes some sense since they are sea slugs. It could have an Eastern/Western look about it as well. Seeing as Kalos is separated into three parts we could see some Shellos appearing in the wild.

        Reply
    • Perhaps Syoomai could be found in the North and South (in their respective forms), and Gastrodon in the the East and West. Think of Kalos as a dissection of four parts.

      Alternatively, The Kalos Pokedex shows the Region divided into 3 parts (Coastal (blue), Central (White), and Mountain (Red)) perhaps a Central Shellos form could be introduced and evolve into Syoomai, instead of Gastrodon…

  13. What I am hoping to see in this CoroCoro is the next stage of the starters! I came across this pic, it’s someones idea of a Chespin 1st stage evolution. I would love for Chespin to evolve into something like this 😀

    Reply
    • They never show the starter evolutions, it’s one of those things that they want us to discover for ourselves
      This is an appropriate time for a hashtag, I believe.

      • Gen V showed the middle stages, and the middle and final stages were leaked. And Blaziken appeared in the Johto League. Just sayin’.

        Wait… unless it’s Twitter.
        Last time I checked, Twitter wasn’t a Pokémon!
        >:U

        *ahem*
        Besides that, I agree with you. Starter evos are never shown, only discovered.
        …Or leaked.

        • Because of you, I will now go catch a Spritzee and name him Twitter, then find you through the PSS and beat you with Twitter so I can say SORRY BOUT IT.

          • Only if its shiny version is blue should you name it Twitter. Either way, good luck with that.
            I’ve never gone online with Pokémon in my life. I only connect locally.

            ┐(´-`)┌

  14. I hoping to see in this Corocor the PROFFESOR PLEASE!! because in the intro who will lead you when you’re staring?
