The first images of May’s edition of CoroCoro, popular Japanese comic publication, have surfaced. It appears that next month’s issue will reveal the boxart for Pokémon Sun and Moon! UPDATE: Magearna’s type has been revealed to be Steel/Fairy in another leak:

FEATURED DISCUSSION: Nintendo NX
Im not that dissapointed…and i think it is because i didnt expect much and i was right…but srsly they need to stop promising “big news” if the are not going to be neither big or new but yeah i give this corocoro scan a 2/10
I give it a 7.8/10 – too much boxart
Haha i see what u did there, if were to give it an ign rating i would give it 7.8/10 too much overhyping
It’ll never happen… . But it would be nice if someday they put a code in the box so that if you buy one.. get 50% of the other version. Might even make more money that way. Sigh..
That would be awesome!
I liked your comment as well .. so much BS
oooo im excited for next month now >_<
I tag Yugioh new with Pokemon so I have something to go to when one is down. New Yugioh cards… but they kind of suck.. and the ban list is worse.. :/ not happy with either
Oh hey I haven’t seen you for a while ! How are you ? 🙂
I like the purple box art. I’ll probably pick up Moon Version unless there are terrible exclusives.
I’ll probably get moon version regardless of the legendary.
Since I have a brother, it was usually he gets the version on the left and i get the one on the right.
Not sure if that’s going to change lol
I wish I had a sibling to do that with :'(
It’s all fun and games until he defeats you when you 1v1 battle him every single time
I dont care about winning battles. I just like collecting pokemon c:
What did you say?
“Gotta Catch ‘Em All?”
*12:15 CoroCoro HQ Roof* Alright i’m on the roof now to track where the leaks are.
*pulls out a Leak Tracker from his bag and starts finding the leaks*
You know I can kind of almost make out the title on the boxes and a little bit of the legendaries above it. Anyway we can revise the effect they put on the boxart so we can see the legendaries?
ENHANCE DAT IMAGE!
but seriously thats a good idea, anybody good with photoshop :P?
I’m not a pro with digital editing, but I think reversing the effects on an image given a printed version is markedly harder than being given a digital version of the image.
yeah I figured it would be difficult to do but if we can do it then we have legendaries
What do you guys think will be the new game mechanic of Gen 7?
Kinda hype considering what gen 6 brought (Competitive Meta destruction via Mega Evolutions and Fairy types)
I don’t think we will get too much. Just like Gen 5 did more to the main plot/game than battle mechanics, unlike Gen 4 which added a lot, I think Gen 7 will be Gen 6’s Gen 5. You catch what I’m saying? lol
What do you think it will be?
Well gen 5 did add rotation battles
which were then very underused 🙁
True but it didn’t add as much as gen 4 did. What do you think the new mechanic will be?
Considering the concept art they barely showed in the announcement trailer, I’m guessing something along the lines of Sky Battles where battles take place on vehicles.
Kinda similar to Yu-Gi-Oh 5Ds (probably not but then again we don’t have that much information besides the vehicles they showed).
I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a new battle mechanic with the use of vehicles.
Or I’m just thinking way too far into the concept art they showed
Or maybe the region is so big that we have to use cars to get around!!
that is probably the case and I’m thinking way too far into it lol
The destruction and legalized hunting of Fairy types to extinction
As a fan of many dragon-type pokemon I sort of agree
As a fan of Super Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, I sort of disagree lol
And as a hot headed warlord with quick and irrational choices I declare you make a choice
http://www.serebii.net/supermysterydungeon/evolution.jpg
^this scene means a bit more to me so disagree
Yeah that scene tells me to use Iron Head
Do we even have a date for the next issue?
It’s the same date every month
AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHUUUUUHHHHHH FOUR AND A HALF WEEKS
I’m actually legitimately upset ?
Normally I feed on that but I’m peeved
Alright this one’s a lot harder :3
What’s some of your favorite pokemon main series music tracks?
(Listening to a lot of pokemon music atm hehe)
http://youtu.be/zhcA0RkVE-4
the music before that city is pretty awesome too 😀
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obqJNv9GCG0&nohtml5=False
Nrrrr too serious for something like a drawbridge
true
but on its own it sounds pretty great
http://youtu.be/lJfRE0rs2kE
We seriously need a more active volcano area filled with fire rock and ground types
Mt Coronet is really good. So is Mt. Pyre.
here’s a few of mine

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDZygFP1iNQ&nohtml5=False
I don’t want to flood the site with music youtube links so I’ll just say some others 😛
Final Battle! Rival – FR/LG
Battle vs. Ho-Oh – HG/SS
Battle vs. Brendan/May – ORAS
Batle vs. Champion – X/Y
A lot of Platinum’s music tracks. Jublife City (Night) from Plat, Rival Music for HGSS, Skyarrow Bridge and Accumula Town from B/W, Champion Cynthia’s Music….
There’s a lot to cover.
Explorers of Sky/Dark/Time and R/B Rescue Team music was the all time best
Well that’s why I said Main seriesTrue
If I had to pick my favorite main series soundtrack that’d be Black/White
Ah crap. Should’ve read better
hehe its k :3
X and Y. The music is truly beautiful and matches with the theme of the game perfectly. It has some really great orchestra sounds as well. The melodies and use of orchestral sounds had me really caught up in the music.
ORAS. More specifically all of Zinnia’s themes.
So I discovered this.
Hello! I’m Quil’s twin brother.
Ach! >_<
you're here
🙁
wasn’t expecting you so soon lol
Well I’ve been playing a lot of Pokemon games, and you were on here a lot, so here I am.
Eyy.
Ummmm…..
My favorite Pokemon game is Heartgold and Soulsilver. Second favorite is a tie between Platinum and Black/White.
My favorite Pokemon is Eevee.
Er….
I’ve recently been playing Yellow, Platinum, and Black. Most recently Yellow.
Sorry, that’s favorite Pokemon main series btw.
My favorite Pokemon game overall is Explorers of Sky. PMD is one of my favorite series, although I’ve only played Rescue Team and Time/Darkness/Sky. I have yet to play Gates or Super
well that’s quite a lengthy introduction :3
Oh…. was it too much? >_<
I’m used to doing introductions for new sites I go on….
You call that a lengthy introduction?
well I introduced myself in 1 comment hehe >:)
I’m Earthen otherwise known as “The Down to Earth Trainer” A fiery headstrong fighter with a intense love for battling and Ground Type Pokemon, when he enters the battlefield he’ll give you an earth shaking battle that’ll rock you to your very core
And he will lose everytime 😉 jokes
Just once let me have my moment
Meh nah
Lmao you used this same line 2 years ago.
But this is my disqus profile
But did you actually laugh your a** off
Alright well I’m just going to go play some more pokemon byez :3
I’ll be playing some too soon. Busy studying irl.
Playing Platinum?
yes
Playing Yellow.
Trying to train a Magikarp XD
So…, the BIG news in THIS issue was that the BIG news will come in the NEXT issue! OK, I buy it! Let’s all get hyped for the NEXT issue, then! 😉
As I promised drawing moon legendary while no real leak happening…..dark type Saenrex.
Saenrex….. Really
You nearly had me for a split second
wat did u mean?
Don’t play Shady
Saenrex is Xerneas spelt backwards
yeah I know …..I was read a lot about the parallel world the name would be like this.
sorry it’s very quick sketch.
I am disappointed in this and here are things I hope to see in the issue.
The starters and 4 to 10 Brand New Pokémon and 1 to 3 Mega’s, The region something unexpected but still well thought out, The characters and some rivals with a good background like the rival from Silver and Gold, A new gym leader hopefully Dark or Bug type, and a new move on a Pokémon in the region.
A dark type gym leader? Funny joke
No joke I think dark would be awesome someone who is very mysterious.
It’s also more challenging, since Dark is generally harder to cover.
Hilarious
SUN AND MOON LEGENDARIES LEAKED
Giggle
dang it
does that mean Pokemon Sun is going to be split into 5 parts?
My Corocoro buzz is officially dead
So now I need a new game to pool my worthless time into
I *tear* officially finished Paper Mario 64 100% so my natural reaction to start Thousand Year Door but my my desire to 100% is intimidated by the tattle and 100 trials also the level cap is a bitch
So any suggestions anyone
Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story
I played that like a jillion times
just to note, what kind of game are you looking for, games similar to Mario RPGs?
That is a good question
I’ve been kinda doing RPGs for a while and might need something to mix it up
alright that leaves Mother 3 out of the question if you don’t want an rpg (if you want another rpg i seriously suggest Mother 3)
If you’re looking for a cheap Steam Game, I’d suggest Freedom Planet.
Yeahhhhhh funny story I tried playing Earthbound but barely figured out how to progress
One day I’ll figure it out
trust me
Mother 3 is a lot different from Earthbound
Mother 3 thankfully takes absolutely no knowledge from Earthbound to play, and it’s also much easier to play (pretty linear)
I can’t really get into Earthbound either lolThat game is so long, and very good. I like Partners in Time the most, and I’ve replayed it like 6 times :p
Ori and the Blind Forest is good.
Or we’re looking for Mario things.
Well I never heard of this and price is a factor
I kinda wanted to try Undertale but might wait until they do it for Wii u
It won’t. Undertale was designed for PC, and will probably stay on PC.
Undertale is fantastic.
Ori not too expensive. Good indie game that got kind of, er…. swept under the rug when Undertale came out. It’s a “Metroidvania” with cool upgrades and stuff. You can watch the trailer here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pbo7F2PcJr8
Yes, my avatar is Ori.
It may be an Xbox trailer, but the PC version is miles, miles, miles, miles better.
(If only Definitive Edition would come to PC…)
I love this can we play this on PC?
Yes, very much so
http://store.steampowered.com/app/261570/
at first look I thought it’s from Diseny.
Ayy I replayed Paper Mario 64 just a few months ago.
*1:49 Roof of CoroCoro HQ* Where are you leaks? *The Leak Tracker beeps faster until making a ding and saying:Target Found!* Ah perfect the CoroCoro Valt Here i go!*puts back The Leak Tracker in the bag,pulls out a metal gear snake suit,puts it on,pulls out a laser pen from the bag and starts beaming a hole on the roof*
No Joke I think a dark gym leader would be a good and mysterious twist knowing there are no gyms of dark type.
So here’s something interesting:
So the boxarts don’t have the legends on them:
This is from 4chan and a pretty good look. the boxart’s blank, so they were smart. What I thought was a tail and crystal is the logo mixed with flames from the sun.
Here’s mine which highlights the logos better:
Sun’s is easier to see then moon’s, but it’s there.
The blue circle highlights a weird black line, but it doesn’t seem to matter.
I think they could still show each version’s legends… it’s hard to really see with that bright burst across it. They could have edited them out.
Plot Twist:
This is the actual boxart, they want us to think that we’re being teased but in reality this is the actual thing.
I don’t know man, you can’t make the assumption that the legendaries aren’t on the boxart just off of this. Is it possible? Sure, but you can’t conclude that just from this.
Yeah looking at these legends is the equivalent to staring at the sun for say five minutes
True, but it makes sense that they aren’t as they are full aware of what done with photo editing. And I actually saw someone say that imagine if that’s the actual boxart, but you can only see the sun legend when the game’s held up to the sun, and moon to moonlight. Probably impossible, but that be pretty cool.
The sun version kind of resembles a griffin or a bull. Ay where Earthen at maybe he gets his fire bull finally.
My thoughts is the sun legend is a lion/ or griffin. Makes sense. Moon is probably a night owl/wyvern creature.
Either way, I still believe the legends are going to be based on the rest of norse mythology.
Team flare has a lot of sun references, so I think we will see them return in sun, and a new team based around the moon. It be like hoenn where one group aids you against the other.
Also based on the hints masuda dropped on twitter last night, I think the plot will involve sun flares destroying the moon, and the solar winds from the moon causing nature disaster’s on earth.
Hmm…
What is your favorite video game…
of all time?
Tomb Raider/Rise of the Tomb Raider
Earthbound! One of the few games I consider nearly perfect
I believe Itoi improved on his series with each game. Mother is horrible imo, Earthbound has good jokes, areas, wit and charm and then Mother 3 as his final entry improved on everything the other 2 games were lacking.
I wish he made more games. Even if they weren’t Mother games, the guy is brilliant
I agree. I am looking forward to the fanmade Mother 4 game that (with no more delays) should be finished soon.
Mine’s Mother 3
I love you
HGSS
AKA the best pokemon games
Completely agree with you there. They did so many things right to me that it just stands out so much. Some things I wish that SM have that HGSS had are:
– Gym Re-matches
– Second region (or just an actual postgame)
– Rival who isn’t your best friend
– Battle frontier
– Pokemon safari
– Not a gazillion legendaries (Kalos did this well)
– Pokemon following you (I know it’s not going to happen now, but it’s just a wish)
– Difficult game (This one is just my experience though)
The only problem I can think of is the levels of the Kanto pokemon but still. So goood
eh
best pokemon game imo is Explorers of Sky
In terms of main series I mean
No. GSC are technically the best. You can’t beat classics.
I think HGSS perfected them though
Nah. They didn’t feel the same.
That’s a toughie.
Hrm…..
Either Explorers of Sky, Ori and the Blind Forest, Metal Gear Solid 3, or Majora’s Mask.
Paper Mario!!!!
Skyrim
I’ve had tons of fun with a few rom hacks, even moreso than xy and oras and about as much as any oher pokemon game
Well I love playing pokemon but I also love the Madden and Nba2k games. But I love HGSS
What Pokemon games have you guys been playing recently?
Pokemon Red! I’m getting Pokken on Sunday though for my Birthday
Nice! I’ve enjoyed Pokken so far.
And I just played through Red XD
Pokemon Yellow, Platinum, and Black.
Mostly Yellow.
Platinum
I finished Firered/Leafgreen a week ago
I plan after Platinum to play HG/SS, B/W, B2/W2, X/Y, and ORAS
oh also some pokken tournament
I recently restarted both my X versions over (yes, I have two, and a Y). I think I’m going to go and restart my Black 2 and White 2 versions this week. It’s my favorite versions of the games, and I miss them. I wish they’d make a remake of them somehow and be all 3D style like the newer ones.
I restarted X so I can have a cool Vivillon pattern and as a kind of speedrun, though the speedrun attempt got a bit derailed and it became a Nuzlocke instead.
Not to be rude but restarting just for a Vivillion? Laaaaame
Well that is my Nuzlocke cart, I restart it all the time. Might as well change my 3DS region while I’m at it, right? My main file in AS is intact. <3
Played Pokemon Blue for the 20th anniversary and sort of just kept going… played Silver, Alpha Sapphire, Platinum and away to go on to BW or BW2 (not decided which yet).
I fixed Saenrex ….I think it should be dark-water type,If u like it I will prepare myself to draw Latelvy.
I read that as Late Ivy which reminds me of Poison Ivy
I feel the same way but I am wat can I do ?……y always u?
Well with Poison Ivy on the mind it got me thinking of DC villainesses
Siiiiiigh….Giganta
So no one is gonna tell me that this is corocoro April fooling us late? Lol
They’ve been too busy biting each other’s heads off to even think of that.
Is getting a Wii U worth it to play Pokken on?
I’ve heard it gets boring after you’ve played it for a while. I’m waiting for the NX at this point anyway.
Is that just Pokken or Wii U?
Both
