The latest edition of Japanese comic magazine CoroCoro has been leaked and we are currently translating it for any new information 🙂
- Bear is called Kiteruguma. It is described as cute yet deadly. It is classified as the powerful-arms Pokémon. It’s hug is dangerously strong and people in the Alola region regularly put warning signs out. It is Normal/Fighting with abilities Fluffy/Klutz. It’s name is possibly a play on words for “to wear” and “it’s here!”
- Deflated Pikachu-esque Pokémon is Mimikkyu. It is a Ghost/Fairy type with the ability Disguise and is said to lurk in the darkness. It is classified as the bakenokawa (a veil hiding a monster) Pokémon. The body is black and the Pikachu-looking part is actually cloth-like and covers it from the sun. The article warns people about looking under its veil. It’s name seems to come from ears, mimic and ~kkyu (cute/timid sounding),
UPD1: A clearer scan of a section with Mimikkyu’s information has surfaced: “The reason that Mimikkyu resembles Pikachu…!? It modelled itself after Pikachu goods that were all the rage 20 years ago?! It seems it wants to make friends with humans just like Pikachu“.<3 PJ
FEATURED DISCUSSION: Pokémon GO!
GHOST TYPE GHOST TYPE
The bear is Normal/Fighting and the pink fluffy thing is Ghost/Fairy
What?
Okay first reaction: Meh??? What the hell is that thingy right?
The lefty bear looks decent especially in the smaller pics. wonder about typing Dark/Fairy?
The scan does look real.
Serebii already confirmed its Ghost/Fairy
Just read Ur comment. Thx though.

simply amazing!!! These ara so awesome looking. Very different than the typical Pokemon. The Gen is rounding up to be great!!! lol
THEY LOOK LIKE SHIT FAKEMONS GONE ARY
You will kill them
ILL KILL THEM WITHOUT REMORSE
THE FIRST FIGHTING REVEALED IS A TOTAL JOKE
UGHHHHHHHHHHUHHHHHHH

WEE WOO WEE WOO
Officer Jenny is here to take you to pokemon jail for breaking the rules
Excadrill mega Ground/Fairy, just confirmed by my source
I need to see this wannabe Chucky doll in movement. Very unappealing atm.
”People in Alola are scared of Kiteruguma to the point of having warning signs about it. It is really strong and can break anytthing in two. It likes to hug its trainers but is strong. Raising one puts your life in danger.”
Come on CC we need a Gym Leader, I can’t digest that no GL rumor.
It is quite odd that they haven’t shown at least one. By this time during the XY pre-release period we had I think at least Viola lol
At this point in XY, we had Viola, Clemont, and Grant revealed
Okay so these Pokémon make me believe the starter leaks even more, because they look weird.
Very different from what we’re used to. I personally love them and the Ghost/Fairy typing just really finishes it off for me. I will definitely get it on my first playthrough!
”Mimitsukiyu hates sunlight, preferring dark places. It is rumoured that the cloth covering its body is a strategy to avoid the sun. Don’t try to remove the cloth it is said that those that do become afflicted with an illness.”
UGHHHHHHHHHH this is what I was afraid of
Only two Pokemon per Corocoro
AND THESE TWO SUUUUUUUCK
These make me laugh so freaking hard! They’re so weird and creepy. It’s so out of character for Pokemon(even the “scary” ones) I’m not sure I’ll ever use either, but they are certainly both welcome to join the Pokemon family hahahaha
THEYRE MAKING ME BLOW EVERY ONE OF MY GASKETS
THEYRE HORRIBLE
I’m sorry you’re having such a terrible time lol
TERRIBLE DOESNT EVEN BEGIN
I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO GOOD POKEMON TO GET EXCITED AND NOW I GOT TO WAIT ANOTHER BLEEPING MONTH
I often find myself wondering what the heck goes on in your head lol
You’re the one limiting yourself
I have a feeling that the Pikachu-esque Pokémon isn’t the actual Pokémon, since its ability is called ‘Disguise’. It could be something like a Ditto or a Zoroark. Maybe we’ll see the real Pokémon later.
Well you can see on its body it has an extra pair of eyes. I think the disguise part is you don’t know what’s underneath lol
Maybe it comes in more kinds of Pokémon.
Would be awesome, but I dont see that happening tbh.
EDIT: I just noticed its sort of a Pika clone lol, maybe you have a point.
It’s honestly just kinda “meh”
War really hoping for 1st stages
Same, but the ghost isn’t that bad to me anymore…now that I realize it’s eyes aren’t the Pikachu’s 😛
The bear is sooo cute, but it gives me a no evolution vibe. Hopefully I’m wrong and it receives either a pre-evolution akin to Ursaring or Beartic or an equivalently amazing evolution. The cloth Pokemon is soo weird and out of the norm for Pokemon – both of these are – and that’s why I love it! All in all, these two Pokemon are well designed although the bear could do without the headband.
I believe it’s a red panda not a bear
Oh okay! Thanks! :3
I think it’ll definitely evolve. I’ll be a little upset if it doesnt
Pedo-bear is officially a Pokémon! I’m calling it now
But its a red panda not a bear 🙁 D: lol
My head when I saw these: what the actual fuckerdeefuck
That definitely is a red panda right there!!! Honestly i think they are building a kung fu panda team here lol
Omg a crane Pokémon
Hm..I think you’re right! Might have to have one then since red pandas re my favorite animal
I’m really glad that there’s finally a ghost/fairy type! I really love it and will 100% have it on my team c:
Well I’m pissed beyond recognition……
I need to kill something now
Yourself
We’ll get a ground type. They haven’t revealed any dark types and you don’t see me overreacting
YOU GOT PLENTY TO USE
IM SO SICK OF WAITING
Dude omg go outside and get some air
I AM OUTSIDE HITTING BRANCHES WITH A SHOVEL
At least you’re getting some air
WHEN AM I GOING TO GET SOMETHING I LIKE EVERYTHING SUCKS SO BAD
That’s not GF’s fault that’s you not being open towards new kinds of designs
preach it <3 XD
OPEN SHMOPEN
WHAT DOES IT TAKE FOR A SINGLE EFFING GROUND TYPE OR DECENT FIGHTING TYPE
What’s a “decent” fighting type? What, are you upset that this one is cute and not big and masculine? You need to chillax, dude.
Kiteruguma would like to give you a hug
You didn’t hear? GF confirmed that they replaced ground type with Fairy type because it was redundant with the Rock type. So that’s why there’s been no ground types silly.
That’s because I allow myself to like pokemon of all typings…
They’re really going all out with the new typings this region. That said, not sure that I like that ghost/fairy one…
I like it lol
Kinda interesting I guess. I like the typing at least
Indeed, Ghost/Fairy is awesome imo. Kinda expected it with Lunala but still happy we’re getting it.
i do like the ghost fairy, because look at it this way.. it’s a cloth covering the real Pokemon (what i think its a ghost child that doesn’t know how to draw and that’s why its like that)
It just kinda reminds me of a weird shuppet. I need to see the evolution
same here, that’s what it reminded me of
Hello i am back and im glad to say the leaks are now most likely fake (thank god) also this pokes look nice
how do you know?
No gorilla or capybara pokemon and no new feature etc and besides the rumours were simply off
Nobody said they’d be revealed this month
Still fake, on november 18 i will look back to this and say ha i told you so 😉
I hope you will because I hate the leaked starters
If Litten turns Fire/Fighting I will sue GF
Lol you assume the leaks are fake because they’re not in this month’s Corocoro?
The point is they are fake
it’s real serebii already confirmed it, he doesn’t put stuff on his website that he knows is not real
What? Dude im talking about the chinese rumors
oh.. sorry about that.. yea i want them to be fake also
It’s ok now that i read my comment again i noticed that ppl may get confused about what leaks im talking about hehe
With the addition of these two Pokemon, the number of Pokemon revealed thus far along with their confirmed evolutions is 31! 😀
Um… These two are VERY weird haha. I don’t really like the panda one, but I’m sure it will grow on me. However, I find the Ghost/Fairy one really cute!
yea, the ghost one reminds me of shuppet
