October’s issue of Japanese comic magazine CoroCoro has leaked and brought with it new details about Zygarde. The form fans are familiar with from Pokémon X&Y is when it is at half power and called “50% Form”. It has a “cell” form as its base, the amoeba-like one, and a newly revealed dog-like form at one tenth of its power and is called “10% Form”. Finally the last form is its “Perfect Form” which retains its original Dragon/Ground typing. It incorporates the red and blue of Yveltal and Xerneas and is even more powerful than them.
** We’re awaiting specific information on just how the forms are attained
Ash is also going to have a Greninja that shares physical traits with him. We don’t know if this was achieved through the power of friendship or some satanic ritual. This weird, new Greninja is set to appear in the new Pokémon XY & Z anime, which will air close to Mega Evolution Act IV.
Pokémon Z confirmed? Or is it Pokémon XY & Z? Or X & Z and Y & Z? Or none. Who knows!

We’re going to get a 10%, 50% and 100% Zygarde amiibo 3-Pack sometime near the end of next year. My third eye has spoken.
I still need to get my splatoon 3 pack D:
I need that too! I just don’t have the money to spare but I’ll somehow find a way.
I’m relying on Christmas for a few things. I still need to save up to build a new computer
What about a 5-pack of all five tho? I’d like that. I could see them doing Zygarde and Perfect Zygarde as a 2-pack, but why include 10% Zygarde if Cell and Core Zygarde aren’t included? If what I saw on Pokebeach is correct, and Cell Zygarde merges with Core Zygarde to become 10% Zygarde, then a 3-pack of the lower three makes more sense.
Dang, I’m not sure if I’m goona be able to sleep. I’m so hyped! I love Zygarde so much more just from these leaks
Agreed! I love them all so much! if only the rest of the fandom would think that. Getting a lot of Digimon, Dragonball Z, Transformers references for Perfect Zygarde, “Houndoom 2.0” or “this exists, okay.” for the dog and green blob being Dunsparce cousin. The poor canine isn’t getting a lot of attention. Does someone want a treat? xD
The dog is what made me so excited. I would be hyped if there was just perfect Zygarde, but the dog is easily one of my favorite pokemon designs now. My favorite animal is a wolf so this makes me so excited
Consider the following:
If the “regular” “50% Form” Zygarde has a BST of 600…
Does that mean Perfect Zygarde has a BST of 1200?
Oh god, that would be amazing. But it’s like it has reverse wonder guard where you can only hit with super effective moves. That would be a neat idea.
It’s going to get Slow Start…I’m sure of it.
Imagine if it had skill swap though. That would be unstoppable
Whew…that’s hard to swallow.
Then the 10% form would only have 120 BST, so i somehow doubt that. But who knows.
Ash noibat to evolve before movie
I really hope Ash getting noivern is foreshadowing for mega noivern. That, mega Froslass and that dog is all I need in this game
That dog-like form is weird… Looks too much like Houndoom. But whatever.
Now we wait for the official reveal in a few days!
I can’t wait to see all three form’s Sugimori artwork! They never did mention the dog or blob form’s types. Did they?
I think they said they all stay Ground/Dragon
I thought they only mentioned Zygarde’s Perfect Forme type. Ah well. I’m sure we’ll know soon enough.
Yeah, they only mention Perfect Zygarde’s type. Personally, I think that Zygarde Cell and Zygarde Core won’t have the ground type, they’ll only be dragon types.
I love it! Dogs and wolves are my favorite animals and I love the black and green color scheme! It definitely has a spot on my team based on the design alone!
Why is the Coro Coro month always a month ahead? I never really thought about it until now
All magazines are like that.
Oh, I haven’t read a magazine in a long time .-.
So in the anime leaking, it shows off “Ash Greninja.”
After translating, it is said that Ash somehow is able to fuse with Greninja, and they even use a quote from a lady in Pokémon X and Y that says “I wish I was able to fuse with a Pokémon…”
Furries confirmed
Lol and wow mega evolution and fusion…it really is digimon but it definitely makes sense. Idk for everyone else but it was hard for me to se that The greninja has Ash hair
It’s like under his head it’s weird.
And it has a red streak on his head which I guess represents Ash’s hat?
Let me just say that after what Xatu told me about simplicity in gen 7…yeah bring on gen 7 lol
When this is 100% confirmed I’m playing “One Vision” with a smirk on my face.
Is this from the scan above, or a new scan?
There was a scan revealed along with this documenting the reveal of the new anime season “Pokémon XY and Z” that isn’t posted here.
Oh okay. Wait, is this the scan that zooms in one the ME 4 poster? If not, do you mind posting the scan? I believe you, I’m just curious to see it. 🙂
So, all Bonnie wants to do is see Ash turn into a giant frogman? A giant frogman? All she wants to be is someone who gets to see a giant frogman
Pokemon ReBurst confirmed lol
But now the question remains.
How will we be able to get Zygarde to attain this new forms? A held item? Some sort of move? Maybe it will just do it normally? Who knows.
Only time will tell.
Maybe you’ll be able to catch multiple Zygarde cells and you can change its form using those.
I thought serebii.net said that it was dependent on its Hp?
Side note: my biofilms hypothesis was semi-plausible.
I just checked the website. They haven’t really said anything but that these forms exist.
Ok, I’m just goona get my Steven universe fusion jokes out of the way now
He fused? With his pokemon greninja?
ITS FUSION ASH!! WHATS MORE PERSONAL TO US THAN FUSION!?
All I wanna do, is see you turn into, a giant frog man!
Fusion is just a cheap tactic to make weak pokemon stronger!
Ok I think I’m done for now
Edit: This is Greninjash back together
All I wanna do is see you turn into an Ash Greninja an Ash Greninja all I wanna be is the one that gets to see an Ash greninja
Oh fail…I didn’t realize you said the all I wanna do…sorry
I appreciate this on more levels than pkmn can achieve
i tweeted something similar to this last night after the leak. XD
Idk about you guys but I never use legends competitively and in dppt I didn’t use a legend in my adventure team, I didn’t use the legend in unova unless you count my use of victini , I used Yveltal and a little Xerneas (never beat X) and I used groudon. Idk what they will do with Zygarde but unless we get it before the eighth gym and at a level like 40-50 I’m not gonna use it. Plus different forms? In the scan it says that Perfect form is stronger than Xerneas and Yveltal and the dog is only 10%. To me that seems like the only thing the dog will be good for is speed. I’m just hoping that there is new stuff like new gym leaders or whatever new megas and hopefully some of weaker Pokemon making them viable.
I hope the dog is good. Because I want to use it competitively so bad
I just realised that we missed something in the ME 4 trailer from last month. At the end, it shows one Zygarde core, and four Zygarde Cells. I don’t think I saw anyone in the fandom who thought they were two separate forms, we (myself included) all thought they were just five of the same form, four of which had fainted, and Chespin was trying to save the last one.
That’s probably what the bit at the end was, Zygarde Core merging with four Zygarde Cells to form 10% Zygarde….
Well, I’m goona go to bed. I am so tired. Hyped, but tired. Good night everyone! Believe in Zydoge!
I thought at first it was sorta like aipom stealing his hat but the greninja freakin has Ashs hair. What else could that be if not fusion
I just noticed this. Xerneas is quadrupedal (walks on all fours), Yveltal flies, and Zygarde Perfect Form is bipedal (walks on two legs). Very unique Legendary trio to say the least!
In that sense, no, it actually isn’t. The creation trio is similar. Giratina-O has no legs, Palkia has 2, Dialga has 4, and Giratina-A has 6.
Technically Yveltal does have two legs, haha
True. I’m running low on energy and just felt I had to blurt out a random statement. Lol. It’s just past 3:30am here. I should get some rest. I suspect this is the last of CoroCoro… for now.
Weather Trio says hi (Groudon is bipedal, Kyogre has swims, and Rayquaza flies).
First of all, the names… 10/50% aren’t very catchy, hopefully there’ll be actual good names that are a bit more…catchy?
I do love the designs of the dog one and the guardian based one (I think the smile is very creepy and somehow fits and also how it has colours of both Xerneas & Yveltal)
I wanna know how the dog fits in with the mythology and everyone (if ya know, please do share)
Greninjash? Ashinja? What is happening and why has it become Digimon? I mean the design is aweome…but still
hey ..i like to see someone care about mythology if remember the wolf in norse myth ? but that not the only answer ..according to Darwin’s theory all creatures evolved from Quadruped as a stage of evolution .
I don’t see the difference between zygarde core and zygarde cell
10% form and perfect form look great.
But how will we change the form in game?
And I think The Ash Greninja is going to be like Enternal Flower Floette.
And the next game is obviously Z, since the new anime is called “XY and Z”
Zygarde Cell’s stomach hexagon isn’t as brightly coloured, and looks like what Zygarde Core would look like if Zygarde Perfect Forme stepped on it.
I’m not the only one who’s noticed the anime pics at the very top of the scan am I? From left to right, there are pics of 50% Zygarde in a cave, Malva, Xerosic, and a pic with Alain and someone. I’m assuming that given the presence of Alain and Malva, it’s related to ME 4.
Okay one thing i’ve noticed is that the flat cell and the levitating cell are differentiated as Core forme and Cell forme… according to me it’s probably a translation error and they are just one forme, Or that the Core forme isnt really a forme, but as serebii says is the “brain” of each forme and implants itslef as the controller of each forme that acts only as a vessel or something. Another interesting thing i noticed that nobody else seems to have pointed out yet (and i hope i’m not wrong about this) is that a perfect zygarde in the anime poster has a different chest (wider with more red and blue and illuminated) than the other artwork.. im not suggesting that it is YET another forme, but maybe that ties into the plot somehow.. my theory, from every evidence i’ve given is that the Cell, 10%, 50% and Perfect formes are either actually anicent/modern automatons of human creation or natural passive structures that get inhabited by the Zygarde core and come to life. If they are manmade, we can assume they were constructed to exploit the Core’s power (which is a naturally occuring organism with immense dormant power). If they are natural, we can assume them to be lifeless vessels awaiting activation from the Core. I hope the story pans out this way, since i see many exciting possibilites. using this framework they can also add more formes if they wish, creating a separate Zygarde-specific mechanic like the Rotom set of formes and the Kyurem mechanic combined.
Okay so this leak is very revealing… while it doesn’t outright announce a game it does imply something: They are not done with Gen 6 and the next game will be a continuation of XY. The speculation is of course whether this will most likely be Pokemon Z as the new title of the anime suggests or something else.
As for Ash’s Greninja… i think it makes perfect sense as Greninja is a ninja and ninja’s use disguises to cover up their identity and therefore i think this is just another ability of Greninja’s that will most likely be added in the next game. We have had player customization and you know Ditto has been around since the beginning…. Cosplay Pikachu kinda played with Pokemon Customization a bit and so this could be the next phase of that.
Next… Noibat is evolving.. YAY! Also…. anyone notice that MEGA SCEPTILE?! I do hope that is Ash’s as it is beside his Pokemon in the poster.
I’m happy a few things have been confirmed such as the forms and that the next game will surely be a continuation of Gen 6 but this also opens up a lot more questions to speculate about…
Hm… In the XY games, someone mentions a legend of a Froakie becoming a human, which is a reference to legend of Jiraiya, a ninja that could transform into a giant toad. Maybe this will be implemented in the game as Greninja’s special power: Transforming into a specific person.
Hmmmmm so if I’m reading this correctly that the Zygarde we’ve come to know is only 50% of its true power, I guess that’s why we have its less then stellar stats
But was not expecting the Dog form, which does that mean it’s totally weak or just but a mere fraction to its power
So much info to analyze but I’ll do it later
Here I thought the blob thing’s design was out of place.. That thing doesn’t even look like a Pokemon. But it’s cool tho, I kinda like it. Aaaaaand what the hell is up with that Greninja? ._.
Typical gf for me xD
Give us a design thats not pleasant (imo) and will take a while to get used to xD
But this is very interesting, I don’t think it will be hp wise to change the form, but I don’t know what else it could be
Lol. Wtf is that thing.
I literally can’t form an opinion of it.
I like it but at the same time I don’t.
Crying.
