A portion of this month’s CoroCoro indicates that we’re going to be seeing a BRAND NEW POKÉMON!! As you can see above we have a Princess-like silhouette and its name is Magiana.
UPDATE: CoroCoro has leaked with pictures and more information. Magiana was made 500 years ago by someone. It is is the Man-made Pokémon. It will be in the upcoming film and has some relation to Volcanion, possibly made to protect people from it. Full title of the upcoming movie is Volcanion and the Mechanical Magiana. To clarify, its typing has not yet been revealed.
UPDATE 2: Magiana’s body holds a mechanic that serves a function and only Volcanion who is chasing Magiana knows the mystery behind it. Volcanion is on a mission to return Magiana to the mechanical Kingdom of Azoth, where it has been kidnapped from. Presumably Magiana has some link to Project Azoth mentioned in ORAS.

Looks like Diancie with Rabbit ears and a machine body, not all that impressed but at least it’s something
Since it’s man-made, it could’ve been built based on Diancie’s design but who knows.

Image NOT created by me. I found it quite funny. And also possible.
Azoth is in-game canon? I must have blanked out on that.
Heaven forbid Magiana’s coming heralds another new type. 18 is a nice enough even number.
There’s a book in Team Magma’s hideout with some flavor text about “Project Azoth” very easy to miss.
Unless you’re like me and nosy so you search for Archie nudes.
Well, if anyone were to have them, it’d certainly be Maxie.
Idk but it seem no Zygarde in this movie.
I know I’m asking this waaaay past the point of reason in this series, but what exactly makes Magiana a Pokemon? I mean, it’s a robot made by a person. If I made a nuclear launching battle tank and called it a Pokemon, could I enter a competition and utterly decimate?
I’m assuming it has to do with project azoth, and hence the azoth kingdom. Something along the lines of using the infinity energy to give it life. Or take life from other pokemon to bring it to life?
The Pokemon singularity is upon us and I love it. I would love if it folded into a ball or something and rolled around.
Its a bakugan, the body has a pokeball patter and its “ear flaps” fit perfectly to complete the pokeball. So basically it is its own pokeball
I get it
Ha!
Rumor issssss…. Pokemon Go is released the 27th as well…
Hmmmmmm. And what does that say about the closed beta they said would b talked about in the coming months? Also why would they show it off next month if it’ll just b out already?
I said it was a rumor. Not it was going to happen. Good God. Don’t attack me for trying to start a conversation.
Omg I wasn’t attacking u. hahaha I was just posing questions. For all we kno it IS gonna b released on the 27th………anyway……sorry if I made u feel attacked……..unintended……lol
;~;
🙁
Guys seriously Magiana for Pokken
If Magiana gets in before Metagross or Rhyperior I swear to god…
There’s something inside Magiana’s body, right? What if inside that pokeball body is hidden Az’s Floette? We still need its official reveal and we know for sure about its existence. It’s the last of 6th gen pokemon that we are still waiting for.
By the way, being Zygarde 100%, Volcanion (& Az’s Floette) clearly part of the movie I don’t think Magiana is a 7th gen pokemon. I mean, they distribute Volcanion and Zygarde in xy/oras and then Magiana in next pokemon game? Correct me if I’m wrong but when Lucario, Zoroark and MMewtwo Y where revealed they where the mascots of the movies. Magiana is not like Munchlax or Blaziken, but at the same time is just another important member of the crew, with Volcanion and Zygarde that still have to shine in their gen, not just like cross-generations pokemon. I’m pointing to last 6th gen game/movie or for a 6.5 at best,
I think the official release of Magiana will be very interesting. This weekend will b pretty exciting to say the least. Things to look for that may give hints(at least) about what gen this Pokemon is in is going to b all in the words they use to show it off. I do wonder if they’ll announce a game this month now……I honestly don’t think they’ll do what they use to do for the old games where they reveal the next gen Pokemon years in advance. If this really is a gen 7 Pokemon I wouldn’t b surprised if we c Gen 7 sometime this year. I would b surprised in general that Gen 7 is coming in such a way as they’d b skipping over Zygarde however.Either way I really can’t c them keeping quiet about the next game(s) anymore. The reason I think the game this Pokemon is in is coming this year is bc it doesn’t make sense for them to do multiple years of promotion of the next gen in the movies as the release dates for the games aren’t spread out like they use to b. Y unveil a Pokemon for a game that isn’t even coming out this year? Also the other times they’ve had Pokemon revealed for movies that far in advance was when there was already a game releasing due to that staggered release schedule they use to do. Anyway I think whatever game this Pokemon is gonna b in is definitely coming this year and it doesn’t matter whether its gen 6.5 or gen 7. Sorry for the long paragraph lol
Wow I really had a hard time getting my thoughts written down here…….not a hard concept to expliain out loud to myself, but when typing it out I found myself rambling hahaha
This certainly has got all of us thinking.
Look at all the long paragraphs!
So… I was thinking that the next game will be Gen 7.
This is because, first of all, there was a quote by some Nintendo/pokemon person that said something along the lines of “we want to mix it up and surprise fans with the games we release. So, we made alpha sapphire and omega ruby and incorporated Kalos into them.” This makes it sound like instead of making a third game, oras was the third game for this generation.
Secondly, it would be kind of weird if Gamefreak spent two years just to make pokemon z, and will only spend one year to make the gen 7 game in the future. (obviously, gamefreak plans ahead, so they may not have spent so much time on pokemon z, but whatever.)
One reason that there could be another gen 6 game is that they keep releasing new pokemon like the Zygarde forms, volcanion, and Magiana that are “gen 7 pokemon”, so this clashes with my gen 7 theory.
Anyways, food for thought. Thanks for reading my chunk of words.
I’m sure they’ve been working on gen 7 for longer than you or any of us might think, just saying.
Good point. I’m saying (just to clarify myself) it would be pretty anticlimactic if after a 2 year wait, during the 20th anniversary celebrations, we got a platinum or emerald or yellow-esque reboot of gen 6.
I think the azoth kingdom will be like the distortion world in how it will be a short poly important world to show the special effects of the 3ds.
I think you’ll be able to access it from the power plant.
Also notice how azoth starts with AZ?
Anyone know what that outlined crest inside the grey pokeball circle is? Looks like a team plasma patch could fit in there
Looks to me like a medieval family crest. Considering how Magiana was created 500 years ago, this makes a lot of sense, doesn’t it? Worth thinking about.

Yeah it does. Weird how there were robots 500 years ago in the pokemon world, too, though
Yeah, it sure is. It kind of makes me think of the legends of an advanced race of humans (or aliens) living on Earth long before us.
I think its the button that activates the pokeball since my theory is that magiana works similarly to a bakugan with its body actually being its own pokeball
Oh no. I’ve McFallen
Come to think of it, team plasma did create Genesect, so that’s not unlikely. Other than the fact that team plasma wasn’t in the BW anime.
I’ve read all of the fantastic long paragraphs on this article and I’ve come to my own conclusion. Think of it this way: Gen 7 will be to Gen 6 as Gen 2 is to Gen 1. What I mean by that is, Kalos could still be accessible in the aftergame, as well as all of its gym leaders. The big difference would be that the game starts in a new region, connected to Kalos with the train station or some other means after 8 new badges are collected. Magiana could be one of the mythical Pokemon from this new region. There are more connections to Gold/Silver too: you know how around 200 Pokemon were originally planned for Gen 1 but they saved about 50 for Gen 2? This could be a similar situation. 72 Pokemon were chosen to be in Kalos, while another 60-80 or so will be part of “Gen 7”. TL;DR…Pokemon Z = Gen 7?
Anything except for Kalos being the main region. And longer routes. And hotter guys.
I don’t mind the idea of something similar to gen 2 happening, but I do have some reservations as to how they do it. In gen 2 Johto was pretty good, but once u got to Kanto it felt like an abandoned theme park. It was just as empty as it was in the original games if not more empty. If they make Kalos accessible after the gen 7 region they really need to beef it up a bit. Make some side quests so there’s something to do. Add a whole other story on (not as big as the main game, but u get what I mean) to make it worth while.
I was thinking the same thing. Even if Kalos is the main region, then I think there’d have to at least be a huge Southern region(or maybe eastern region, too, who knows). Whatever gamefreak releases it’s going to be crazy. Kanto reboot? Crazy. Gen 7? Crazy. Gen 6.5 with some new regions? Pretty crazy. Pokemon Z with a slightly revamped Kalos region? Almost everyone has abandoned that idea by now. It would definitely surprise me.
LOVE THIS IDEA!
Seems Legit
why can’t i like this post a billion times. ;~;
I really like this idea as I feel like have a new generation this year would be great for the 20th anniversary.
DUDE. This is what I’ve been thinking about the past few months and I’m glad I’ve seen someone bring it up. The longer this Pokemon Z thing has dragged on, the longer I was beginning to think, man could we actually just be getting gen 7? Then I started thinking what If this is a similar situation to gen 1 and 2 and here I am seeing someone mention it here. Man would it be cool if something like this did happen.
I thought similar but not Gen 7 but rather Gen 6.5. I’m saying this because the designs of Jotho and Kanto was really different but let’s say Magiana is part of Gen7 it doesn’t look that much different than Gen 6 Pokemons. I thought about Magiana being part of “Southern Kalos” with new Pokemons and the rest would be like your theory. If you look at all Generations of Pokemon you actually see that each Gen has their own kind of Artstyle that’s where my doubt came from Magiana being part of Gen7.
Project Azoth, the creator of the Parfum Palace, and the creator of Magiana might all be the same person. There’s just not much info on the Palace.
Like lots of you, I want to see how they announce this globally. But when do you think they will?
The 11th, 18th. 20th, 27th or when ever corocoro comes oficially out? I’m just wondering because I don’t know when corocoros official release date was this month.
Never mind shiny xatu answered that question for me.
Probably 15th since the 14th falls on a Sunday.
Nevermind your other comment just loaded.
My Theory:
– Magiana was built to capture a raging Volcanion by the people of the Azoth kingdom and thus, became the very first capturing device. However, Magiana and Volcanion fall in love or something and Magiana, knowing its true purpose decides to leave Volcanion. Hundreds of years later, Volcanion continues in search of Magiana and finally, sniffs out some clues. All this time, he thought that the humans who created Magiana took her away from him and thusm he has resented humans ever since. When Volcanion and Magiana finally meet again, Volcanion notices that Magiana is no longer the same Magiana that he had loved several hundred years ago. Magiana had been hard at work all these years trying to extend her life force and came upon Project Azoth which can distinguish the life of Pokemon to give life to another. This project involves infinity energy, Ultimate Weapon, and Eternal Flower Floette. Volcanion then decides to stop Magiana even though he loves her and with the help of Ash, they try and stop Magiana before everything is too late. They also discover that the reason the kingdom has become this machine-like is due to Magiana using Pokemon and people from the kingdom for her experiments. Before Magiana can turn on the Ultimate Weapon after having collected all her ingredients using her helpers, Volcanion uses his last offense mechanism and unleashes his true power along with Perfect Zygarde. Magiana talks to Volcanion one last time before she dies and tells him that she loved him and that she is sorry for everything, she had gone mad in search of eternal life and beauty because she knew her time was coming to an end and couldn’t bear dying without meeting him again. She also tells him her true purpose and cries, knowing how much sin she has committed. Volcanion pushes the Pokeball button on a shocked Magiana and he is captured in a burst of energy saying he will always be with her no matter what and they both vanish. The Azoth kingdom falls apart that Magiana is no longer there and Eternal Floette returns to AZ and Ash and co. continue their journey.
Joking, that’s just my imagination. Anyway, I hope Magiana is the very first Pokeball and that her and Volcanion merging is the “secret power” they both have because that would be hella awesome!
I enjoy when we get new information like this so I know who the lurkers are around here. I knew y’all were here.
Explain what you mean by that.
What you talking about, I don’t lurk around here!
I watch you allWhelp that sketch from earlier certainly does seem to b very close to what they’re leading people to believe lol It’s not exact, but the way they’re positioning them is very similar hahaha
Edit: Pic form Serebii
YOU’RE THE REASON IT FROZE WHEN I TRIED LOADING THE IMAGE TO POST
YOU’RE BANNED
OH NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! I’m so SORRY!!!!! hahaha
Here’s the movie poster
Looks like the picture Chico shared might be right. Haha
I give the people what they want. And what they want. Is the truth.
That shiny Mega Gardevoir.. They know where it’s at
Still no damn Mega Heracross
I love this thing more each time I see it.
My avi?
No, the poke- you know what, yeah. Sure.
Diancie has a Steam Punk sister.
art isn’t mine by the way
Fill in the blanks:
“Volcanion and Ash have become linked together by a strange ____”
…. This isn’t the place for your kinky fanfics
xD Aw man!
sexual relationship between person and Pokémon.
What if this was actually what it was?
Device: probably Magiana (but Chico’s answer was better)
Okay am I the only one that notices the plus signs in its eyes? What about the colors of red and blue is that regarding the zgarde forms or volcanion? I believe the ball connecting it head and arms will slide down the little path underneath it and then turn into a pokeball made to capture either the cores, Volcanion, or Xerneas and Yveltal to awaken Zgarde to his True form. Oh and hi guys and gals I’ve been gone for a while with school and such
Mother of Basti….
