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.

look what I foound.
need one for its final evolution
poor popplio…
Nope nope nope
OMG XD
This leak is quite annoying
Just realised that Brionne would be the perfect partner for Serena. Oh well. TOO BAD AMOURSHIPPERS MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I don’t know if I should be mad at the writers or the higher-ups

yeah this is the difinitive fire starter evolution.
We’ve kinda accepted it at this point
but I think that the fire/fighting type one would be able to get on all fours to speedily pounce prey and opponents.
It’s actually going to be Fire/Dark most likely
This is will be my nightmare if isn’t …..we don’t have any Dark pkmn until now and Fire/Dark starter is very old dream.
if only I didn’t look like a fire fighting that would be awesome. even if it is dark, theres no reason we couldn’t have gotten a sleeker, more majestic panther kinda thing.
why littens final evolution is stepping on a pizza box on the bottom left image…
Mermaid3 reminds me of Milotic really love it’s design.
Every time someone mentions Tony, it its compulsory that I post this:
http://i.imgur.com/epqnU2q.png
this alolan form sucks, and i even liked rattatasche & rata-ate “cheek pouch”
wait theres people who didn’t ike the new rattata and raticate? I mean, yeah theres people who don’t like them but I just kinda assumed that they were generally well liked.
rattata with a mustache seems ridiculous and raticate looking like it has the mums aren’t all very appealing but i still liked them anyways but this…….this grimer, no just no
You liked Faticate. That thing looks like it’s going to explode.
Grimer looks better than that balloon
“and i even liked-” meaning i know alola raticate looks eh but still has a major difference in visuals compared to alola grimer’s counterpart
Not that it wasn’t well speculated, but we got confirmation that the character we play as moves to Alola via plane from the Kanto region. That’s cool.
STOP THE SPECIAL TREATMENT OF KANTO
this
Eh, at the very least it’s a nice nod to the first region given the 20 years. And this is purely speculation, but if the 2nd region theory really does come true, I really hope it isn’t Kanto we go back to. Kalos please…
It’s the anniversary of were/when it started.
20th anniversary, 4 islands, Alolan formes. The Kanto love is already highly present in these games
see this is something I don’t get. people say “well, yeah its the 20th anniversary, of cpirse they are going to pander to kanto” but the point isn’t “20 years since red/green/gen1” its “20 years of Pokémon, all the games that we’ve had throughout the years as a collective thing”
I’m really angry how much Kanto is getting special treatment. Arguably the worst games in the series getting love for it being first. I thought we were celebrating 20 years not 1996. Acknowledge the other regions. The ones that actual fans enjoy. Give us Alolan forms of Z moves of Pokemon from all regions. Give Maractus some attention, or Vespiquen. Pokémon that need something to make them stand out.
Or yknow, Lumineon perhaps?
Or actually cater to the fans and do something about Flygon and Milotic (Wink)
The only Kanto Pokemon that REALLY needs attention imo is Jynx cause gen 4 evos. Besides that, NOTHING else should be getting any
They keep trying to get people who left after gen 1 and 2 back. The people who aren’t Pokemon fans. It just frustrates me so much.
(Gen 2 does deserve a bit of love tho… Gen 1 has been overdone too much…)
I’m not saying it doesn’t. All this gen 1 love should go to 2 if anything
Exactly
Gen 2 has many mons with improvement needed
Gen 3 is almost satisfied, they just forgot Flygon
Gen 4 is in a good state but needs a bit more love
Please save gen 5… It gets so much hate
Gen 6 is too recent for change
Lumineon is so beautiful! It’s one of my favorite, if not my favorite, water types!
He was my first shiny, so I had an instant connection. :3
I don’t really like Kanto, but R/B can’t be blamed for being the worst games in the series. They started everything despite having obvious limitations. Naturally compared to all the future games that get to introduce more and more features with better hardware R/B are going to look bad. But without Kanto kicking things off, there’s no Sun and Moon to be looking forward to. That said, I do agree and wish everything about Pokemon was being celebrated rather than the focus seemingly being Gen 1 nostalgia.
Just because it was first doesn’t mean it isn’t the worst. Of course later games would be better but it still leaves it as the worst
My fave gen 2 mon got a mega at least :3
I agree it is the worst, but that isn’t a reason to fault it. When you’re comparing it to all the future games that got to introduce more stuff and look even better, the Gen 1 games should be the worst.
But I mean even outside of technical limitations. The remakes aren’t all that great compared to even regular gen 2
It’s the same game under a new skin with a bit of post-game. The story is still bland and the towns/cities are boring. I’m just saying the hate for it being the worst isn’t warranted, but the hate for it constantly being pandered to is haha.
Nothing to do with anything, but the only time I enjoyed Kanto was getting to go back to it as a post-game region. But I’d be angry if it was a post-game region for a 2nd time. That’d throw me over the edge. We’ve been there done that with Kanto, it’s nice to reference it here and there, but I don’t need to go back.
It’s not the lack of mechanics, it’s the blandness of the region. Very few notable monuments. At least Johto had the ruins of alph, a lighthouse and pretty pagodas.
Can we all just point out how scary these mons will be in competitive?
I mean, a possible dragon dancer with possible drain punch that can switch in on a hyper voice
Mega Gardevoir will destroy it
Megas not allowed in 2017 VGC
Regular Gardevoir will do. Actually Mimikyu would make for an even better counter. Doesn’t take damage from fighting or dragon moves, free substitute and fairy moves
True true, just Jang Evo will be a scary threat
1. Switches in on Hyper voice for pro plays
2. Does not need to stay in on psychic moves
hang on there
we don’t know if they’ll even get most fighting moves
they could get the Swords of Justice treatment
Let’s hope not…
Also I got to say this.
If it gets it, I’d personally recommend dual chop, only cause I mean
Dragonite and focus sashers
i run Dual Chop on my Garchomp
but this could end up staying quadrupedal ergo no punches and only kicks and close combat
If it does I will literally die…
Let’s PRAY that doesn’t happen
(90% sure it will get d-dance)
Use Disarming Voice and it will die.
Soundproof
I would say this to Star Storm …….but this is Karma dude.
and no Hyper Voice
I’m looking forward to the choice scarf poison Jab set people will probably run with it for fairies XD
its ability may change though. not always, but the pseudo legendaries do often have an ability change on their last forms.
That’s assuming it is the Pseudo Legendary. It isn’t confimed yet and if it’s evos are indeed in the Corocoro than I doubt it is one since they NEVER reveal them before the games come out.
Well, they will most likely introduce a Thunder version of Fairy. There is Play Rough and Moonblast too.. It all depends if we get a priority Fairy move.

bad bitch alert
What’s that to a Mach Punch Macha-
Oh … Wait…
damn
Mimikyu is going to be so godly in competitive
True true
But than again, Alolan Muk…
~assuming it has usable stats~
Even if it doesn’t have amazing stats it’s ability and typing already makes it a threat. Give it protect and you can make it a decent wall
I’m surprised you didn’t die in the hurricane m8 😉
It should learn Fake out.
So far out of my five main needs , three of them have been checked off by gen 7
Starter I love? : Rowlet
Great Dragon? Check!
Amazing Water type? Check! (Imo, my boi Pyuku)
Good ghost: I honestly hope for more good ones, but the so far revealed ones are great. ‘Specially Mimikyu
More new ice types? : (sad sigh)
Ninetails is beautiful even if it is an Alolan form. I like it more than the original
True, I do love it
Just… It isn’t enough.. Ice has barely got any love, and no true new ice types
I hope the snowman will be cute. Something like that fake drawing would be nice
so far, mine haven’t been.
1: battle frontier, not yet
2: battle frontier, still haven’t heard anything yet
3: battle frontier, no news about this
4: battle frontier, tpci hasn’t revealed anything like this so far
5: battle frontier, we’ve yet to receive any info regarding this as of this moment.
That too, I really want that as well
But not the Sinnoh one!
The good one
I actually prefer the Sinnoh one
Huh…
….
(Is dead inside)
Maybe I just don’t have enough experience with the hoenn one idk
It’s perfect tho…
(Except for the battle palace… This is why we don’t let Blazekins think for themselves)
that freaking battle palace…. I beat the entire frontier with 3 pokemon, ninetails, salamence, and ludicolo. except the palace. ludicolo, who was a toxic/leech seed staller, would not do what he was meant to do. so I had to go catch a specific nature regice who did do what it was meant to in order to take down palace maven spencer.
Lunaala may end up being my favorite legendary. Right now it’s a tie between Lugia and Reshiram but Lunaala is so pretty
AGREED!!!
I remember a few days before the announcement I said
“I would LOVE in the moon legend was a bat! It’ll probably be some stupid-ass wolf, but I REALLY want a bat!”
Than Lunala came out and I literally screamed in joy
I love how it’s wings and head have like, space in them. And the crest and mmmmmmmmmMMMM I love it!!
And also I even had the perfect name for it!
What are you going to call it? I’m just naming it Lunaala because the translation team is full of idiots who think “Lunala” is acceptable
Antasma
Y’know, Mario and Luigi dream team? I immediately thought of him. Why? I dunno
I’ve never played it. The only experience I have with Mario and Luigi games is Chuggaconroy’s play through of the first one
http://www.deviantart.com/art/Antasma-386304266
This guy
ITS PERFECT!!!
Exactly!! That’s the first thing I thought of!
See I wanted a moon wolf (mostly I just wanted a wolf pokemon Thank you so much lycanroc) but i find Lunaala so pretty! I am so glad everyone who was saying it was going to be a lion design was wrong!
Tru!
1: Reshiram
2: tie between ho-oh and lunala
I used Reshiram in the aftergame of my recent Black play through and I love it
Lunala is the ONLY legendary who even got CLOSE from taking the crown from Kyogre….
The only reason Kyogre beats it is cause of something it did for me the other day
Lunala is amazing, the reason I’m picking Moon.
My favorite legendary is Complete Zygarde.
Lugia and Lunaala are tied for first followed by Xerneas and latias (well the lati duo but I prefer red over blue)
I would like Xerneas more if he didn’t have that stupid neutral form and wasn’t caught in that boring lab
I like it!
(Geomancy is seriously annoying tho… Aka why I don’t like it as much as I would)
Well in fairness the legendaries in X and Y were give boring catch areas! As for the neutral form I agree but I can’t help love that we have a giant deer god that has rainbow horns there so pretty!
I can’t help but picture a psychedelic Bambi when I see it..
Princess Mononoke is what comes to my mind. …. I think I watch to much anime
xerneas is my 3rd favorite.
My favorite is Giratina Origin form. Lunala might be my favorite after using it though.
Oh I forgot Giratina! Giratina is so cool!
Mewtwo for me.
Solgaleo might come close to upturning it, but I like Mewtwo’s lore and juxtaposition with Mew.
Not sure if it’s been stated yet, but 3D doesn’t appear to work in battles at all anymore. Personally, I don’t care. I can’t remember the last time I turned 3D on. My eyes are too sensitive.
I love how the 3D feature just died
I never cared for it, I just wanted to play new games xD
my eyes are dying, the 3D is like a knife in my eye veins….and that worries me
because if i go blind…that’s it…game over…. can’t play video games, can’t write or type, can’t draw….game over
You don’t believe in afterlife?
i know for a fact that when i kick the bucket i’m going to hell
Lol same
Y creature like u will going to hell.
Out of topic:
I’d say the creator of this giant big universe has nothing to lose, he can forgive you and give you eternal happiness if he likes, you just try and ask him. Can you imagine your wildest dreams true. Believing in afterlife can give you hope for a better tomorrow.
I dream about riding Rayquaza in outer space.
wouldn’t space be here, therefore not the afterlife?
LOL in heaven you get whatever you want
sweet more gummi bears when I die from eating too many gummi bears
At least you’ll have company.
Unless the multi-ring theory is true and we end up in different rings.
Normally people get used after a few days of using the 3D option. Do you play video games with the lights off?
usually i’m talking about now
my eye has been killing me all day today
Take a break then, go to bed earlier
According to the people who have played 2 hours of the full game there is still 3d in battles but I believe it is optional like before
https://twitter.com/GameXplain/status/786240180306849793
I’ve seen this among other reports saying 3D only works in the Pokemon Snap features.
interesting. Either way I never use 3d so I doesn’t matter to much to me. though I am interested in the conflicting reports
Way too heavy in XY.. Put trainers and backgrounds there and the 3DS might crash. Better than Sun & Moon being New 3DS exclusive.
I never use the 3D.
I’m used to not using it.
Why does cutiefly’s look so cute I can only use 6 Pokémon and I want it
Because
It’s got tiny legs and a cute little brown scarf thing and I want it
I’m very eh about it
i want to see it set on fire
It looks like one of those useless cute Mon like Cherubi and Lilligant
Ok lemme stop you there Lilligant is amazing
Lilligant is a beast. It’s far from useless.
QuiverDance + Petal Dance
on a side note, I really wish cherrim was good.
So according to the GameExplain two hour play through they encountered pokemon they can’t talk about yet. Does anyone one have any idea what types they might have encountered? or do you think they just saw evolutions of what they encountered (starter, pikipeck, ladyba, and Yungoose) Sorry for the bad spelling! 😛
they could talk about ledyba yungoos, and starter evos because we’ve seen them
yep I know that but I am wondering if there are pokemon (new) that we haven’t seen that are encountered early or if it is like in the early generations were there are only like five or so pokemon encountered in the first part of the game
8 days till we are forever saying goodbye to the greatest Pokemon that has ever appeared in the anime. #RipGreninja
I was a big fan of james’s chimecho. then It got sick and I got sad. but the anime is awful so it dosnt really matter
replying to myself lol. that being said I would really love for james to get a Bewear this season. he seems to get the painful huggy types.
One of Jessie or James gets one.
Where are those leaks come on im starting to think these were fake
Is it me, or is that a coffee shop in the Pokecentre?
http://serebii.net/sunmoon/pc1.jpg
Omg… Starbucks?!
that was addressed to you now
because I am w….
Not gonna go on that joke
nah, not enough hipsters and white girls
I’m pretty excited about the built in Starbucks
Its Amsterdam style. Alolan marijuana available
Alolan Oddish.

Those beta artwork for the workers silly
It could be where you buy potions and stuff. And the other side is pokeballs and that sort of stuff.
Could be, would be a bit odd though.
(Ignore my deleted comment, trying to reply to too many people XD)
No, you can see potions on the shelves over on the right
I quite like the look of it.. And not having a separate Mart never bothered me.
I assume these are for the Poke Pelagos Level-up island?
The integrated shop never bothered me.
I doubt it’s pokepelago related because A) it’s got a coffee cup symbol and B) the hut for the pokepelago is in a north east island up top of the map.
The PC might act as an interface though since it’s supposed to be linked to the PC.
Yeah, I meant the drinks you buy for the Pelago thingy.. who knows.
hey i know these alolan formes are not entirely fake but look at this.

Aw, I hope your wish after blowing out the candles (Moar Earth types obvs) , comes true. 😉
Gonna post this again before I loose it once more.

It seems Tackle went back to low Base status in Sun & Moon. Tackle is now nerfed with 40 Base power (Serebii).
….who cares?…….. it’s only tackle?
I had no idea it was ever buffed
Good. I was always afraid of crits from my rival during the first battle 😛
On second thought: what a nerf for magikarp 🙁
When was it even buffed?
I think gen 5..
There so many creative and logical ideas for Alolan forms such as pure water Grimer, a Fire/Rock Golem, fire/water lapras with a volcano on top instead of the shell.
And over here we have game freak randomly slapping type on to things. Plus they are kanto only for some shit reason
i don’t think Pure Water Alolan Grimer makes any sense
I mean its a pile of sludge, if you take away the sludge then no grimer
Since Alola is a tropical island, it means less pollution so it would get rid of it’s impurities and become water type.
Makes a lot more sense than Electric/psychic Raichu ._.
Grimer is its own impurities though.
Must be something in the air of Alola. That turns good natured gunk monsters evil
my theory is that Gimer found its way to the Alolan region, and that since a pure and sunny tourist location it was no place for Grimer they drove them away and since they had no habitat they had to fight back…….ugh they’re freaking bio-hazardous slime they would have no natural predators
So nothing new in the last 5 hours…
This is all so odd
At the very least a pic of the 2 rumored evos would have been nice, I don’t really care for Alolan forms cause it’s basically recycling
I see it more as reimagining older pokemon
