After today’s Japanese release of Pokémon the Movie XY&Z: Volcanion & the Ingenious Magearna viewers were given a brief glimpse at what they’d see next:
While we didn’t get much information on the movie itself, we did get some interesting bits. Above Pikachu, we see what appears to be quick flashes of each of the Generation’s starters, ending with Sun & Moon starters Rowlet, Litten and Popplio. After our Gen 7 starters say hello, Pikachu decides they’ve had enough screen time and reminds us that this is in fact the twentieth movie.
More is sure to follow this fairly cryptic announcement, but for now, what did we get from this? Are the starters the central focus of the next movie, or were they just decoys to divert our attention? Let us know what you think in the comments, and we’ll let you know when there’s more movie info!
’til next time,

That was crappy looking I couldn’t see most of it!
That music sounded very sinnohish…
#SinnohConfirmed
Reminds me of Route 228’s music?
Maybe @shinyxatu:disqus can help us pinpoint where it’s from. It sounds SO familiar though, and definitely from Sinnoh!
Speaking of Sinnoh
I doubt anyone note but nearly every one of Alain’s Pokemon are capable of Mega Evolution
And I theorized that if we were ever to see a Sinnoh remake we’re bound to see Cyrus mega evolve his Weavile
Personally Mega Weavile scares me, already super high speed and decent attack power, if they slap on Tough Claws Ice Punch and Knock off…..that would not end well at the slightest
It’s a remix of Route 216’s music

I just got to work at the hospital, and the higher ups are passing out newsletters to everyone saying “dont play Pokemon GO on campus”. Haha this is great!
O look….no marshadow. Rumor destroyed.
Not sure you’re kidding? Mashadow was trademarked by GF, so its a Pokémon lol. We just dont know what it is yet.
No..one of the rumors was that marshadow would be shown at the end of this movie with the starters.
Bollocks
Pokemon rumors almost are never true though haha
Which rumors?
Not sure which, but someone here said there was a rumor where the leaker said marshadow would be featured at the end of the movie like victini and magearna
I wonder what the music is in the background, it sounds really good I like it
That would be Route 217 from Sinnoh!
Wonder if the new movie is already available online?
Everythings available online. You just have to look in the right place.
Suggestions?
Sleazy sites that try to instantly install at least 6 types of malware the very second you open the page
Finally get to see the tree new starters in anime form. Very cute. <3
LOL I meant Three.
Yep, it’s Sinnoh Route 216/217

Sinnoh music is friggen gorgeous.
Can’t upvote this enough!
SINNOH CONFIRMED!!! Too early?
I want Sinnoh remakes
The day they release will be the day I can die without regrets.
Thank you, I couldn’t remember what route it was. Honestly, this is a very clear indication that something Sinnoh-related is in the works for 2017 or beyond. This is not jumping the gun, it’s not coincidence. At least, I’d be shocked if it was.
Well they have done remakes in order so Sinnoh is most likely next
Not really it’s not. Because if you think of it that way, than the next remake game should DEFINITELY be the Yellow version. Because it was CLEARLY a sign in X and Y when they gave you gen 1 starters with there mega stones, that a remake of gen 1 games were coming.
I DESPERATELY want them to do a remake of the Yellow version, and OMF it would be EPIC and GEORGEOUS in the Sun and Moon graphics. XD
Unpopular Opinion: I hate Kanto.
Despite the fact that I loved the games it was featured in, I love all the Pokemon there, and it was the region I first played through, I despise it. It just feels so washed out to me since it’s been featured in 10 (excluding Green) main series games. That’s more than 2/5 of the core franchise right there. I would much prefer to see a revisit to Sinnoh. Heck, I might even be fine with it if we got a game with Sinnoh and Kanto, but Arceus forbid another game with only Kanto.
I actually hated Sinnoh games the most. It doesn’t matter how many times I played trough the game, I always get lost at one point in time, and I can’t find where I’m supposed to go unless I watch a walk-through. I wan’t to see the Yellow version remade, because A). it was the very first Pokemon game that I ever owned,and I literally grew up playing it, B.) Pikachu was and always will be my top fave Pokemon, C.) I never really liked the remakes that they originally did do for red, and blue, the graphics were still basically the same as the original game’s, so those weren’t proper remakes to me, all they did was add the new gen Pokemon, and add a few new islands to visit, and D.) I NEED to see the game (I don’t care about Red, Blue, and Green, JUST Yellow.) in those beautiful Sun and Moon graphics, it would be my Pokemon dream come true. That and some of my Fakemon ideas being used by Nintendo. 😀
Pokemon Red and Blue for NX > Diamond and Pearl for 3DS
Sinnoh’s yummy music. I think the uploader put that music there, I love Sinnoh, but I doubt it’s anything that relates to the region.
I could live with a playlist of pokemon route music from each region… so relaxing (o’~’o)
Sinnoh at night/dawn and Animal Crossing at night is one of the most spiritual experiences you can get in a video game.
So I’m watching some clips and nearly everyone of them involve Ash getting tossed, pummeled and blasted
Is it wrong that greatly enjoy that
But the Music is not from the actul Teaser right?
It sounds more like the uploader has put it above the material cause the actual sound was terrible.
I would love a Sinnoh Remake but that just bugs me a lot.
You’re thoughts?
*Your
Stupid me:)
Sounds like it’s actually being played in the theater since the audio is so blown out. Also, the Route 216 theme is slightly remixed, and I don’t believe we’ve ever heard it before.
Nnnnyyyrrgghhhhhhh I am bored
The pokewhateverchi better at least show Huggagrab/Snuggriz in battle and same goes for the cloth
I’m surprised that Corocoro didn’t drop any information on Fluffy and False Colors
Go play GO
I really hope Ghost Pikaclone evolves or is decent in battle It’s very cool to me I want to use it
Obviously, the starters are not the central focus. They showed eveey stater from every generation. It’s just going to be a new movie on a Generation 7 Legendary.
Orange Zygarde !!!…..If anyone remember wat I say about Zygarde temple that make impact wit the real one( that appeared in anime opening) http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1468701090812.jpg
Orange wtf man
I thought it phtoshoped at the first time.
its most likely just lighting, if you remember in XY team flares lair had a large room where they kept the legendaries and it had red lighting in it
I was thought like that at beginning but look at his forehead it’s burble.
…what? do you mean purple? its forehead is light red and its body is red so that doesn’t really dismiss the lighting idea…..?
normal Zygarde usually have white slit in his forehead in this pic it’s look purple.
yes, thats how lighting works, it doesn’t just select certain parts of something to recolour them, that would be unrealistic, I’m not saying thats for sure what this is, I’m just saying its pretty likely that it is
Say waaaaaah!!!! I bet there are going to be a few different colors then if they are going full on with the different colored cores.
Obviously, the starters are not the central focus. They showed eveey stater from every generation. It’s just going to be a new movie on a Generation 7 Legendary.
EDIT: Here’s the full clip: https://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=DQzA704ZHVo
That Garchomp was anatomically incorrect
Too bad the quality is very awful I can barely tell what pokemon are on the screen. I wonder if they plan on making a good pokemon movie again. Probably not though lol.
It’s just the starters of each gen
I know that, I read the article, Im just saying I can barely tell its the starters
Diancie’s was the worst Hoopa wasn’t awful though
Now the show is about to start who wants place the bets if something new will be shown!
Wait what show?
Yea the japanese pokemon show every Saturday, today is the day that it is supposed to show Pokemon Sun and Moon footage
Oh cool probably more in Mimichyu and Katzuguma or something
Honestly I doubt those two will even make an appearance, they will just reshow the jpn commercial
Damn I would hate that if that’s it
Need more Grabbabear! I hope something new is shown though
I want more ghost pikaclone I need it on my team
I want a Rockruff…..
do you know from where can we see the show?
Wasn’t this where we got footage of Kukui’s Rockruff before we got its English name? I think it’s possible we’ll get some new footage, but nothing too important.
How long is this show? I mean, when should we expect an update? Im at work but would like to keep up with news if possible but i also gotta concentrate on duties.
I think the show is an hour long, and the update could be anywhere in that hour, but again I can assure it won’t be anything big. just focus on your duties then come back in an hour to see if there is anything new
Good idea i will do that
I bet nuttin. I can’t imagine they’l show anything brand new that is of consequence. They prolly wouldn’t be the first place to show off the two new Pokemon we got this week either. If they weren’t going to be shown straight up by the original source then they aren’t going to be shown by a more or less third party program
Pokenchi just showed the the trailer from the other day. So nothing new it seems.
Boo new topic Pokemon please!
*gasp* Nobody is surprised. Everybody knows Pokenchi is useless shit.
Yeah I mean I don’t think anyone really is surprised. lol I miss the good old days of Pokemon Sunday and to a lesser degree Pokemon Smash. they used to reveal stuff on those iterations of the shows all the time during the pre-release seasons. You actually had a reason to watch those versions of the show back then. Now it’s sort of boring with little to no pay off. I also like the cast of Pokemon Sunday and Smash more too lol
I really can’t believe how enjoyable Pokemon Go is. Me and my brother just spent an hour walking around our neighbor hood catching Pokemon. I know people keep talking about it, but dang it’s fun
Sadly, I can’t enjoy it. I don’t actually have a data plan, so I’m restricted to areas within range of free Wifi. I’ve only gotten around 15 different Pokemon since its release.
These are times when I wish I had a younger brother (or brother at all). Most of the time I hate the idea, but this would be worth it.
I have a younger brother. He doesn’t like Pokémon. It isn’t really worth it 😛
The 6 year age gap might have something to do with it though ahah!
its still not released here yet </3
It’s enjoyable until you are dangerously close to running out of pokeballs and waste 15 on a spearow 😛
It’s corocoro waiting time!
You mean for next month’s?
Yep, assuming they don’t pull a salandit
That was a special reveal at the Japan Expo though. I believe the same thing happened with Honedge. I wouldn’t expect another reveal like that one.
Pokemon usually gives us something themselves near the beginning of each month which is still like two weeks but better than 3-4.
That sucks nut
Omg already? I think we’re more so back into that time period of “not waiting for anything” rather than waiting for CoroCoro. That time really stars at the beginning of the month. I wouldn’t be surprised however if we got the next date for another reveal like we’ve been getting very month so far. I imagine just like the past few months we’ll get an official trailer for new stuff at the beginning of August.
I’m siiiiiiiiiiiick of waiting
You’ve waited this long. What’s four more months? We’ve already gotten past all the boring months lol
Wasn’t pokechin gonna show some gameplay today?
It was just the trailer from earlier this week.
Ohh okay
I hope there aren’t any early sales this time around like there were the week before the XY release. As much as I’d like to be able to stay away from the Internet during that period, I know I don’t have that resolve in me, and I’d prefer not to have all the Pokemon spoiled.
Hell I hope there are early sales around me hahaha Prolly won’t be…….lol
But I need to be able to plan a team :I
I dunno, I actually really enjoyed the hype surrounding discovering all the (few) pokemon in X/Y because of the leakers.
It wasn’t as anticlimactic as with B/W, where the entire pokedex was leaked beforehand all at once.
Well, we’re definitely not getting news for another few weeks or so. However, they are definitely going to reveal a new Sonic game for 2017 next Friday, so for those of you who care about Sonic, that’s exciting! This one is going to be produced by the actual Sonic Team, separate from Sonic Boom. I don’t care that much, but hey, it’s a big deal for some people. I’ll definitely get it!
https://youtu.be/oMGOj0mz3Bk
Sonic team isnt much better honestly. Sonic died after sonic heroes.
Alas that is true
Ashes to ashes, hedgehogs to hedgehogs…for to we abid farewell to a once noble spiky blue rodent
They’ve claimed recently that they want to bring quality back to the Sonic series, so that’s why I’m looking forward to the announcement.
They always say that.
More P5 shiz on Tuesday as well for the 2 people who care.
When was the last ‘decent’ Sonic game? Colors and Generation in 2010 and 2011 I believe? All other 3D games have been very poor. It’s dead, Jim.
Really wish i could make discussion topics for everyone. I could come up with the best discussions.
Hmmmmm then just blurt it out and enforce your will onto them
Plain and simple
Just say something relevant to pokemon. Like a general question about it. People like that. This is a pokemon community so just staying on topic will get some attention. Try hard to be relevant to pokemon though. You have no idea how annoying is to see a comment irrelevant to pokemon and doesnt bring any discussion at all. IE “Guys im bored” or “Im going to bed goodnight” Thats just spam and clutters the place. We have chat that can be used to talk about irrelevant things. Most other disqus communities are not like this and most of the comments are relevant to article. Im sorry im venting but it just gets more and more annoying seeing it.
well guys looks like tomorrow is going to be the big day,let’s just hope Pokemon sun and moon will give us some more information hopefully.
Already happened and it was nothing. Usually when news is coming from Japan on a specific day and especially if it’s happening in the morning for them it happens around the evening the day prior for at least the east coast in America for instance. All Pokenchi showed was the trailer from earlier in the week. It’s all due to time zones. It’s been the 17th for Japan for a bit now
Big day why?
He’s referring to Pokenchi I assume
no he says this everyday… its just him
They said on the 17 something will happen who knows hard to tell when anything will pop up next
The “new” stuff was from Pokenchi and all they showed was the trailer we already have…..I feel like a broken record hahaha
Oh well just more time to appreciate what we have so far
let’s just hope Pokenchi will give us something.
No it already happened. Pokenchi airs at 8 am ( think that’s time time) in Japan. Now it’s noon for them. It’s been the 17th for them for 12 hours. No news is coming. All they showed was the trailer from this week
