This summer’s animated Pokémon movie is set to star a brand new legendary Pokémon, Magearna, and the newest trailer has been released in Japan. It offers a glimpse at Volcanion and the Mechanical Magearna and demonstrates that the new Pokémon can indeed fold into a ball, as many had speculated.
One thing I’d like to draw attention to is the antagonist’s staff. It appears around 0:48 and looks like a Mega Evolution symbol BUT there is a mysterious jewel in the center which is diamond shaped. This diamond shape is also present in the Japanese logos for Pokémon Sun and Moon and is in the same place that the Mega Evolution symbol was for Pokémon X&Y. Coincidence? Or foreshadowing of a huge new game feature?
There’s also a second :30 version which I’ve included below:
Just from the trailer, this movie looks like it could be a cut above the rest.

I really did like the music from the Mario v Sonic Rio Olympic Games trailer, it was hype. It also had me dancing as well xD
Mario Maker is going to be perfect now… Other than slopes and placable water
Can’t access the direct atm, what’s happening? Any Mario Maker update news?
Those giant spike things from Super Mario World, Keys, keey doors, red coins
Awesome.
Gonna start horde hunting for a shiny Vanillite!
THEY FUCKING RUINED PAPER MARIO THOSE BASTARDS
:/
Wasn’t it ruined with Sticker Star?
THIS WAS THEIR CHANCE TO FUCKING RIGHT THAT SHIT STAIN
AND THEY BLEW IT
I mean, I’m not even a Mario fan, and I thought it was an interesting game.
there’s someone at nintendo headquarters just sitting in front of the computer ready to hit tweet whenever they announce something
I’m waiting for the chat to explode as soon as they say “pokemon”
>Pokken
They probs won’t say anything ;-;
I would spend my college savings to fly to Japan and personally murder- Joking, I’m not that heinous of a boy! 😀
Honestly for like half of last week’s pokemon direct i was committed to it being rby virtual console
I’m basically watching the Direct for the music, that Monster Hunter music oh goodnessssssssssssss more pls
Lol federation force
This Nintendo direct is kinda putting me to sleep.
There’s obviously gonna be a big announcement at the end, like every direct. All we have to do is wait.
Zootopia comes out this week, theater begins next week, CoroCoro comes out in two weeks! March is madness! 😀
That movie looks so good
Zootopia: 100% on Rottentomates, 99th best reviewed film on the site, expected to continue Disney’s HOT streak, and went from being a movie nobody cared about to being one of the most acclaimed films (story, character development, and animation wise) in Disney’s pantheon! 😀 Yeah, I couldn’t agree more.
I’ve loved Disney’s animated movies these past few years! Wreck it Ralph is truly my favorite animated movie and Big Hero 6 was awesome too; made me bawl my fuckin eyes out
Big Hero 6 let me use up all my tears.
I thought Tangled was awesome too. Same for Inside Out.
I’m excited for Finding Dory. Nothing like Nemo nostalgia!
As much as I love Disney and Pixar, there’s nothing better than watching a Miyazaki animated masterpiece in my opinion. 😀
Yeah. Finding Nemo is my all time favorite Pixar movie because I love ocean life. It’s followed by Ratatouille and then Wall-E
All great movies. I’m excited for Moana as well.
Moana, Finding Dory, Kubo and the Two Strings, and Zootopia are my most anticipated movies of 2016! 😀
I’m also excited for Jungle Book, Civil War, and Doctor Strange :3 Also Rogue One, and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them!
When Tadashi died… I wanted to scream at the screen, “BRING HIM BACK! HE’S NOT DEAD, STOP MESSING WITH MY EMOTIONS!” And then my friend had the audacity to say, “That man in the black is actually Tadashi and he faked his own death.” Like, bish, who suddenly gave the third wheel the ability to talk?!
Lol, my friend was predicting Tadashi would still be alive somehow and I was just like…nah
I was the same, except I was bawling throughout the whole movie like ‘this will be happy right?…..right? PLEASE TELL ME EVERYONE LIVES A HAPPILY EVER AFTER’
I’m seeing it this Saturday with my best friend as a birthday celebration to the both of us! 😀
Have fun and be sure to tell us what you thought of the film! 😀
I will :3
I want to see it so bad </3 I don't think I'll be able any time soon but I'll try to ;~; #PrayForLiza
I don’t believe they will reveal something about SM this is didn’t happen before.
Is anyone else falling asleep?
Mecha kirby? wtf
Steampunk kirby!!!
Kirby looks really good!
Yay, new Kirby game!
Oh wait its over
Well that was underwhelming
Not really. It wasn’t overwhelming though.
It was whelming
Quite whelming indeed.
That was a good direct. I’m excited about Earthbound on N3DS!
You thought it was good? I thought it was awful XD,but I don’t like many games, so it’s fine. The kirby game looked decent
What was awful about it?
None of the games interested me
Then it wasn’t awful. Just unappealing to you.
“I thought it was awful” It was all in my opinion, anyway. So awful and unappealing both work. But I guess thanks for restating my opinion, you get how I feel
Exactly
I thought it was ok. Toppa Tengen Kirby Lagann looks good, Idol Sim 2016 lookin’ good, Kirby amiibos on point, and SNES 3DS VC was good. Sticker Star 2 tho.
Damn… just checked out Pokemon’s official channel and the Pokemon Sun/Moon trailer is already around 6 million views! That’s about on the same level as how many views certain blockbuster films get! O_O And the Pokemon Go video has about 23 MILLION! Damn…
For a moment there you made me think they revealed a new trailer post-direct.
23 MILLION!? THATS, LIKE, 46 MILLION EYES!!
They make it seem like the antagonist is mega evolving multiple pokemon at once
I didn’t have any expectations for that direct and im still disappointed
Were any of the games good?
I mean, they have a Mario Maker update which was cool but that’s it
Toppa Tengen Kirby Lagann looks good.
So what does everyone think about pokemon Go? The conference was cancelled today due to the Niantic team wanting to focus on perfecting the game before beta and launch. Is this a good thing? Or could this possibly mean they aren’t ready yet?
I think it’s a good thing. They have a ton of money invested so it’s not like they’re cancelling it.
Yeah, they for sure can’t cancel because of all the money invested. But I feel like Niantic might not be confident in the product yet.. Or they just really don’t want to show us the game yet.
It’s a pretty ambitious project so I don’t find it too surprising that they want it in a great state to show
yah. But I really want to see some actual gameplay before I jump to conclusions. If the game looks anything like Ingress I won’t exactly find it very “ambitious.” You know what I mean?
Yeah. But they set the expectation so that could be it
Oh! And more money was invested by Nintendo recently because Niantic underestimated how big a project this is really going to be…
I think they just aren’t ready yet. Which is fine. They need to take their time and get it working right. I’d rather continue waiting than have them show it off too soon and have it b trash even if it’s just the tech demo.I’m sure ti’ll b a fun game. It’s just a matter of time b4 they get to the point where they wanted to b.
You guys have got to see this. Someone created an animated GIF of all of the years of Pokemon. It’s well made and I thought I should share it here! Enjoy! https://twitter.com/_gamemix_/status/705007896568795136
Jeez. That’s goooood.
There was a lot of negativity following today’s Nintendo Direct. I’d like to say that for me, personally, I left with no problems whatsoever. Star Fox Zero looks fantastic, and it’s getting bundled with a fun minigame. We’re getting a new Kirby game with a cool concept and Triple Deluxe visuals. Metroid Prime Federation Force was given the trailer it truly needed to become relevant in the Metroid universe. Paper Mario Color Splash, while following in the disliked footprints of its predecessor, looks absolutely STUNNING and has an interesting paint mechanic. Rhythm Heaven Megamix will be extremely entertaining for any 3DS owner later this year. I witnessed my friend go completely insane as Monster Hunter Generations was announced. Those things are just the tip of the iceberg. Nintendo is going to have an absolutely kickass 2016, don’t you forget it!
And to top it all we have gen 7!
I agree with you on all of these except Color Splash…. I mean, I liked it better when everything was 2D, hence paper. Now everything is a papercraft except for the characters and it looks really odd.
I am immensely displeased with their blatant disregard to the sheer general dislike of Sticker Star, they officially and permanently changed the series from a classic RPG into this travesty
It is literally Sticker Star down to the label, HELL THE FREAKING FAIRY PARTNER IS A KERSTI CLONE JUST A FLOATING PAINT BUCKET
I will not be swayed by gorgeous graphics and bright smooth colors, no I am outraged, I personally feel I should start a petition to spark some attention to the company to show that I and millions of others want a return to the infinitely perfect game it once was,
http://youtu.be/_JeSNOlA0gE
See every aspect of sticker star is there
Map level selection
1-1 courses
Replacing stickers with battle cards
Thing cards
A sucky uninspired storyline
A floating fairy like companion related to the time I.E. Paint Bucket
Even the battles are carbon copies to the battles being done solely with what you collected and no actual abilities AND THE FUCKING COIN SHOWER AT THE END
This game is literally Sticker Star 2.0 and I hope everyone hates it so much to convince Nintendo to scrap it and give us a better Paper Mario
Hell I’d even take a Super Paper Mario remake
