The November issue of Japanese comic CoroCoro has started to leak online! This issue brings news on the mysterious Type: Null as well as some additional details on Alolan Grimer. Check out the scans and translations below!
Scans
Translations
- Confirms Ilima (pink haired person next to Hau) as the first Trial Captain
- Alolan Grimer is Poison/Dark-type. It’s new look comes from eating Alolan garbage
- Type: Null’s evolution is Shiruvadi – When Type: Null finds a trainer it trusts, it breaks its seal and becomes Shiruvadi.
- Shiruvadi has a special item called Memory that gives it the power to be any type in conjunction with its ability, AR System. Also has a new attack called Multi Attack which changes its type based on the held item
- Jangmo-o first evolves into Jarango, then into Jararanga
- Both Jarango and Jararanga are Dragon/Fighting-type
- The Pokémon Sun & Moon anime will premiere with an hour long special on November 17th
- Samson Oak is the principal of the school that Ash will enroll in
NOTE: There seems to be some understandable confusion on whether or not Shiruvadi is actually an evolution of Type:Null, or a forme change, or something else. The Japanese word for evolution, 進化 (しんか), is specifically used between the two. Showing that, despite the little aesthetic change and the special breaking the seal artwork, Shiruvadi is indeed Type:Null’s evolution.















I don’t know what is happening anymore
Let’s wait until Friday we’ll have our questions answered
Let’s take a moment to examine some art:
http://img03.deviantart.net/ec2e/i/2016/286/1/6/heracross_wip_by_pharap-dakuub4.png
Examine?
That thing people do when they stand away from the painting, put their hand on their chin or their hands behind their back and stare intently at the painting.
I could’ve said ‘admire’ but that would imply simply drawing a plain old Heracross is something admirable, or that the art is good, which is debatable 😛
Heracross <3
I like Heracross a lot. Nice work!
Probably nothing coming to us till Friday now. Leaker must be caught or something
Has that happened before?
or could just be douche who likes seeing others ‘suffer’
Once again I think you’re acting like they “owe” us something……….Just feel lucky enough to ave gotten the Grimer leak and get over it lol
I’d rather we didn’t get that though
And again you’re assuming that i’m acting and thinking like that. How bout you get over your assumptions? *InsertLOLheretonotseemoffensive*
So you’re saying that you’re just joking then? I have no problem with people being frustrated with not knowing what the rest of CoroCoro has, but acting like the person who is leaking the magazine SHOULD give it to us is a bit silly if you ask me. If you’re joking then fine and I rescind my comments, but there’s only so many times I need to see people complaining about something as dumb as receiving info a day or two early……I don’t mean to get into an argument so I think what’s best is if we just agree to disagree for now…….
I just read a article that said “pokemon Sun and moon are the perfect follow ups to Go”
*dies a little*
and said Ninatic are the devs instead of gamefreak
*dies completely*

How does this happen? Isn’t it like someone’s job to write this? Don’t they take enough pride in their work to research this. Do they not have an editor that will fact check?
HANG ON IT SAYS THE DEMO IS 400GB
woah
“I decide to get litten, but I don´t get it immediatly, there is a small video-sequence where you do a ritual, where hala looks if Litten wants to go with you to the “Islandchallenges” saw this on a german one
That’s cool. Kinda awkward for the people who box their starters though. Going through this personal, intimate, holy ritual only to ditch is as soon as you catch something else
*Rituals done*
Hala: Heres your Partner
You: *Blank Stare*
*Punts Starter away*
Someone make a gif of a trainer punting rowlett away like a football
So since it’s my birthday I treated myself to this Skylanders Imaginators app which lets to manage stuff and more importantly create characters
So let me introduce my Earth Smasher

Maybe it’s a furry stone warrior
i ain’t no fur
i just made a Stone Knight character
Happy birthday! How old so I know how many times to punch you?
23 just remember i’ll hit you back twice as hard
*Punches you 23 times and prepares for the worst*
*Gather’s Elemental energy from the earth!*

if you’re lucky
He’s 23? Due to his personality and what he writes, I thought he was like 15.
I think it’s just an online thing.
Y Alolan Raichu looks white here? http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1476287733735.png

How u did it that fast?
He made it.
I ask him “how u made it that fast” ….that’s I know he made it.
“How u did it” != “How u made it”
‘Did’ is ambiguous.
Don’t you know he’s a shiny pokemon God.
i will begrudgingly admit i like the scheme
YES
The white paws look a bit weird, they should have changed colour to keep the contrast.
OKAY new theory to go with my last one about the Apokélypse in the New Testament. Theimre will be a normal human that will claim to be God/Jesus and that is when the Apocalypse will happen. Type: Null could be an attempt to create an artificial Arceus and its type will change with the Plates. THEN ARCEUS DESTROYS THE WORLD IN GEN 4 REMAKES
hmmmmm Apochimera!!!!
Wow, it’s going to be really awesome in Gen 4 remakes when we can bring Type:Null to a legit wild Arceus encounter <3
Does it bug anyone that Type Null is apparently getting an evolution?
no
I think they should just give it a maskless form instead, but whatever.
Not in the slightest.
It just seems like it is kinda special and man made so evolving it is weird. Porygon makes sense because it’s like a computer and it updates but Type Null is organic
And Porygon actually needed an item to make it evolve.
Making Type:Null evolve would mean having solved the mystery of why pokemon can evolve to the extent that they can emulate it.
Immensely.
I was expecting it to be a boring one-stage, now it’s a boring two-stage.
Slightly, because I thought it was going to be the only of its species and this makes me feel like there will be many for some reason..
To be fair we haven’t seen it yet. Until we got better translations it was thought that Wishiwashi’s school form was an evolution.

though most likely never going to happen
i want to see that Forest Place during the rain
Yessss
i don’t know why but i just love rain
I hope they add weather that isn’t just in a certain area.
Also I wish they kept seasons
Rain is good, people give rain too much flak.

The high tech part of the healing part of the pokecentre kind of ruins the nice wodden/hut feel the rest of it.
I think that’s the point. This is going to be a beautiful mix of technology (pokecenters and aether) and the wooden hut Hawaii tropical nature feel.
I’d rather have one or the other when it comes to architecture.
They could have made the counter wooden and still just had the modern PC inside. And wooden PCs are a thing.
Merging a nice natural building with a metallic, polished, modern one like that reminds me of the Mother 3 logo.

Gonna be staking out only the hottest of men for this camera feature
YAASSS
Litten is SO CUTE!
Wow they haven’t leaked any new pages yet? This is ridiculous…?
Why the hell is Alolan Grimer a dark type, and why is it so ugly.
And Where are the rest of the pages?
I’m starting to think that it may be a hoax
It could be, because I don’t see them revealing jangmo-o’s whole line.
But it probably isn’t ..
Yesterday I was toying around with some theories to explain why we can capture the God of Pokemon, and I may have come up with something. What if Arceus isn’t God? Arceus’ etymology suggests that it’s name may come from ‘archaic’ or other similar words, but what it’s supposed to be ‘archangel’ instead? I’m theorizing that there’s actually a higher being that created Arceus who in turn created the Pokemon world, and that’s why we can capture ‘God.’
Bonus: The UBs are the gods that created Arceus, and they’re wreaking havoc on the Pokemon world because they’re infuriated that humans are attempting to replicate their power with Type: Null.
Arceus may not be YOUR god, but he will always be mine…. 😉
My god is Malo from Twilight Princess
funny coincidence i’m watching a let’s play of TP HD
and specifically the Midna lament arc
He super ug
Well you actually can’t catch Arceus. The azure flute wasn’t distributed because game freak decided against it. The events idk
Well that’s even worse. Who has the power to gift God?
Game Freak?
Wait… holy shit
Game Freak is always there. Watching. They are in every game. They are creating the world you inhabit. GAME FREAK ARE THE GODS OF THE POKEMON WORLD
GF being god makes waaay more sense than Arceus being a god.
The Azure Flute scene was weird lol. I had to use an Action Replay for it. It was even weirder when you transfered event Arceus to SS/HG to create and egg for a second Girantina, Dialga, or Palkia
Arceus is “believed” to be God.
I don’t see how it isn’t the “god” or shall we say cardinal deity of the pokemon world. It resides over the creation trio. If that doesn’t make you a god, idk what does.
Even their power is limited.
It may not be “all powerful,” but it wouldn’t be a pokemon if it was. It’s possible that Arceus has an ancient form (avoiding using the words primal here) where its power was 10 fold. Who knows, they haven’t elaborated much. I will say this introduction of UB’s and Type:Null is highly interesting and I definitely think they’re planting seeds for a Sinnoh remake in which there could be a “delta episode” chapter with Arceus.
If it’s not all powerful, it’s not a god.
Maybe within the context of our world and our concept of religions and gods. I think it boils down to GF not realizing what kind of can of worms that they’d be opening for the franchise at the time, but I think they’re circling around to a point where they’re ready to answer those questions.
Just being worshipped doesn’t make something a god.
A creator god must always be omnipotent in a monotheistic religion.
Polytheistic religions change the rules slightly, but without Palkia, Dialga and Giratina being described as gods, we can’t really assume there’s polytheism involved.
In Rise of Darkrai, the creation trio is described as deities. I know they are separate canons but still
I wouldn’t count that because it’s anime based and not game based. The anime isn’t exactly known for following the rules of the game.
Ok but this isn’t “aiming for the horn”. This is supported in the games by Cyrus seeking out their power to CREATE A NEW UNIVERSE
Just because Cyrus believed they could, that doesn’t mean that they actually could.
You are really stretching here. Game Freak obviously intended that to be gods
It wouldn’t be the first time a villanous leader has been wrong about a legendary pokemon.
I’ve always thought Arceus isn’t god.
It makes more sense that humans saw its power and simply called it a god, without realising it’s just another legendary.
I don’t think there is a god Pokemon, they probably all evolved from radiated bacteria. Heck, maybe humans evolved from Pokemon.
Don’t like the ‘Bonus idea’ because it would mean ‘gods’ are beatable.
Actually most humans in Pokémon don’t even know Arceus exists.
How can we even be sure it’s a god if there’s no in-game talk of it being one?
Besides, someone must know if there’s a Pokedex entry, the player doesn’t write them.
Well people like Cynthia research Arceus and know about it. Heck we don’t even know who writes the dex entries
Which brings us back to “how do they know it’s a god” and “who actually calls it a god in the game?”.
I’m starting to think it was never a god and fans just assumed.
And I always assumed it was just the regional professor doing it.
It is clearly supposed to be a god though
-Encountered in Hall of ORIGIN which is a floating staircase above Spear Pillar, a holy site in Sinnoh
– Creates a Dialga, Palkia or Giratina in HGSS, Pokemon that are basically gods
– Arceus and the Jewel of life has many biblical references. His judgement could be tied to God’s wrath on Judgment day
– His name literally has daus as part of its name origin
– Hoopa movie shows Arceus Preists
– Is referenced as the original one and creator through out DPPt
It’s never stated what the hall is the origin of, and humans most likely named it.
Those aren’t necisarily gods either, just legendaries. It proves that it can create Pokemon, but so can humans and humans are not gods.
That depends if you accept that as canon.
That’s a fair point, but again, that only shows it’s god-like. It could easily be a false god.
That proves there is a religion centred around him, but not that he is god. Egyptians once worshiped normal humans as if they were gods.
But there is no proof that it is actually capable of creating a world or region, and it’s possible it just created the Sinnoh region.
Do you have a minute to talk about Arceus?
I’ve always seen PokeDex entries as Developer’s input/stories for players. Otherwise, it doesn’t make sense that you capture an unknown PKMN and immdiately have a description. It’s stupid! If you go by that, then we at least know it created the universe.
Well, not that it matters, we’ll most likely know in Sun & Moon.
Evidence fans cite:
-Referred to as “The Original One”
-Signature move is Judgment
-GF never let us catch it
-Highest BST of all non-mega/reverted pokemon
-Master of Lake Guardians and Creation Trio
-It literally CREATES an egg for 3 legendary pokemon, something that is conceived impossible to do within the lore of the game
So maybe a lot of it is fan inference, perhaps, but they give us a lot to go off of. It may not be a god, but it is a creator and perhaps the first pokemon.
“The original one” could mean that it is only the original Sinnoh pokemon, not the original pokemon of all the world.
Its move being Judgement is more fair, but judging people doesn’t necisarily mean it’s a god.
GF intended people to catch it originally.
That’s certainly a fair point, but is by no means damning. It’s only 40 points more than Mewtwo and Mewtwo was man-made.
There are lots of trio masters.
That’s impressive, but that doesn’t mean it’s a god. Humans have created a legendary pokemon before (Mewtwo). Mew is believed by scientists to be the ancestor of all pokemon, which raises the awkward question of whether Arceus created Mew or whether Arceus is decended from Mew.
MOAR !
just gonna leave this here
“In fact, Trials are so different you’re not even battling your way to being the very best anymore. You’re fighting to be crowned the “Island Challenge Champion” by working your way through the Seven Trials and learning from the Kahunas across the new Alola region, which is absolutely stunning by the way.”
7 Trials
http://www.digitalspy.com/gaming/pokemon/review/a810712/pokemon-sun-and-moon-review/
ok so like
you got 7 captains
7 totems then
4 Kahuanas
Well that’s dissapointing if it turns out to be true.
Downgraded from 8 battle challenges to 7 miscellaneous quests.
and 7 totems
Standalone pokemon.
They’ll be flattened within minutes from a single powerful move unless there’s some kind of obscure mechanic we haven’t been informed of. When it’s 6v1, you tend not to care about conserving pokemon.
>Implying gyms are challenging
They haven’t been challenging since Gen 4. Maybe Drayden in BW was tough but gyms are pretty easy
You’ve been spending too much time on 4chan 😛
Still though, would you rather battle a gym or walk around a forest picking up mushrooms?
lol I rarely ever go on 4chan and when I do it’s looking at Pokémon “leaks”. I recently replayed Y and Black and they were so easy. Might as well have something that gives us insight into the world
I meant using the > as a quote thing. That’s a very 4chan thing to use 😛
With or without exp share on?
I’ll admit they aren’t always challenging
(tbh I can’t remember the last time I lost to a trainer in a pokemon game that wasn’t part of the battle facility (not even the champion), I don’t think I’ve lost to anyone since maybe the second game I’ve owned)
I’d still rather fight a gym leader than go picking up mushrooms or fishing for specific pokemon, or smashing a certain number of rocks.
They only played 2 hours though. Meaning there could be more Trials, and if they played 7 in the first 2 hours, there could very well be 18
From the way it’s written it implied they were told that there are 7 trials, not that they completed 7 trials in the 2 hours.
It’s very possible that the writer got the wrong end of the stick or made a mistake when writing though.
Yeah reading later on they say they never did the first so it’s likely they were told, though, why would they be told that?
Like I say, they might have got the wrong end of the stick somehow, or it could have been a translation issue or something.
I’ve known people they employ to distribute pokemon be incapable of pronouncing the names of the pokemon or remembering which pokemon they’re giving out.
I imagine it like this
The reporter: “So how many trials are there”
Person: “I dunno like, Seven, I guess”
The reporter: “Oh cool seven thanks”
*Puts seven in article*
Seven just seems like an random number, and without the pun, Odd
7 Battle Frontier Symbols in Hoenn I suppose.
But yeah, that’s the sort of things reporters do. Reporter brain instead of Pokefan brain.
Maybe more trials open up in the post game
I’d rather believe the journalist got it wrong.
Well this is just proof Ash can’t be replaced until the end of next gen. He always wins these little side things.. like the other islands and battle frontier. Would be really anti-climatic
While waiting the Leak just break the fake. http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1476242269918.png
I’m going to be honest I thought somethig very different was going in here
We just waiting.
Glad I’m not the only one….
I’m glad I wasn’t alone on that…
Awesome pic of Beltigre breaking pharap’s wanted 3rd evo in half
TL:
“A poor drawing of Tony the Tiger getting butthurt and lashing out at a Pokemon with a better design”
Do you have a link to the other pokemon in the picture?
It might just be a generic one, Tiger Mask seems to think it’s this one:

AHAHAHAHA
No ¬¬
Someone give me a logical reason as to why ORAS didn’t have a GB sounds advanced
someone give me a reason why we didnt have a pure trumpet feature
Because life isn’t fair
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfCwPclTFE4
i’d use it all day
Time & Effort
But something very different was going in here.
Cuz ORAS is half-assed. As much as I liked ORAS, it’s true.
It wouldn’t even take that long probably. A couple days at work.
I actually just started playing ORAS last week and I’ve been having so much fun. I personally feel that the entire game is very fleshed out and innovatitive
I actually like the design
What do you like about it?
xD
It’s likely better in motion
I like the yellow stripe and the teeth
wth. . .I expected to come back n see a full update. Why not?
he didnt want to post anymore
1) It’s a big hoax
2) Leaker got caught
3) Leaker is just terrible and chose not to post anymore
4) This is all a simulation of reality and there was a glitch that made Coro Coro not leak completely
Ohhh I like the fourth option.!?
Since i saw coro coro leaking during 2/3 days…. im expecting more tonight…
If not…. ill think its a hoax until the real deal!
I… was kinda expecting a little more than this..
there is more the leaker just being stubborn
Does anyone prefer Emerald (or even just ruby and sapphire) to ORAS? I’m planning on getting a cart soon
I never played gen 3 fully till ORAS
No because Battle resort, soaring, and blissey bases. Emerald only really has nostalgia and the BF going for it over ORAS.
I prefer its music and graphical style. ORAS’s music seemed to be kinda lazy just taking the song and giving it a 3ds sound font with out doing much to make it different or improve upon it. RSE also seems more lush and bright
That’s fair. The music in RSE was a bit more dynamic, I think it enhanced the environments in a more robust way.
I don’t, solely cuz the mechanics, visuals and features are outdated. But the Gen 3 games are still extremely fun to play, especially with the Battle Frontier, which for something that came ages before the Maison, is still waaaaay superior.
ORAS Was a big improment over RS, but I would get the carts anyway for collecting purpos
I still have my emerald, with the battle frontier completed sitting over on my dresser in my dsLite
So I guess there’s no third character to receive the last starter in this gen? Unless it’s Lillie or maybe Gladion somehow..
Probably Lillie. At E3 it showed something chirping in her bag that was probably Rowlett
While it’s possibly the other starter, which does make a bit of sense, for now I still feel that was a Zygarde core
That’s true. But makes me wonder how we’ll encounter it and its evolutions if she’s opposed to battling. It’d be out of character if she just goes, “well, I suppose it wouldn’t hurt to battle you for research, right?”
No part of me believes it’s a starter. That’s not shocking at all
crazy eh
http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1476288665710.png
I think Unova has my favorite Center.
I’m too nostalgic for Sinnoh. That night theme <3
i hope since 12 hours apart for both games, we can have day/night music again
It kinda baffles me how many mechanics get left out in each installment. Walking with Pokémon, seasons, radio, rematches, battle frontier, PWT and Poketch too name a few
I think we all know just how much the BF is missed, how the heck can’t they see the demand for it? Surely plenty Japanese fans want it too. It’s so strange.
God I miss seasons so much and I only just realised…. Siiiigh. 🙁
Alolas looks the best
I always loved the staircases in Johto and Unova.
me 2
I think of all of these my fave is actually Alola’s. That freaking well looks AWESOME!!!!!!! XD
