CoroCoro Cover Teases New Lycanroc Form? (UPD)

The first images of CoroCoro have begun to surface!

As per usual, the cover is first to appear. And upon closer inspection there’s something that looks incredibly Lycanroc-like – albeit with a different color palette and, most notably, green eyes.

This is not confirmed to be related to Pokémon in anyway as of yet, however the similarities are simply uncanny.

Time to weigh in your thoughts! Pokémon, or nah? Are we looking at a dusk/dawn Lycanroc form? Maybe Ash-Lycanroc? And are those Necrozma-like extensions coming out of it?


UPDATE: Shigeru Omori will be appearing on tomorrow’s episode of Pokénchi with the latest news about Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon! It will air at 8AM Japan Standard Time, so check your local Google search bar to make sure you’re up and ON OUR SITE for the latest info regarding what is revealed. Due to the nature of the games’ international release, an English trailer could even be simultaneously be released – but we’ll have to wait and see!

    Anywho, good to know backstabbing Rock asshole has another form to evolve into! Tbh it’s probably going to be another pathetically weak mono rock type with a cool appearance with a “signature move” like stone edge or something ;3

    Or at least I hope it’s something so we know GF didn’t forget these games existed my dude

      • But it attacked it for no reason
        Even if it didn’t faint its still an ass move
        I would get on Rowlet if it did that

        • It couldn’t help itself, it’s grown restless due to being near evolution. That’s literally nearly all of its lore

          • Okay?
            You realize I called it Rock Asshole as a joke right? I don’t think I’d term it like that if I was serious

            I’d use something along the lines of “piece of shit” , y’know?

          • You never know ;3
            I mean… we do have Earthen on this site

            So anything is possible really

  3. Assuming this Lycanroc form is somehow connected to Necrozma, I think its highly possible that Ash will receive an anime-exclusive form similar to Ash-Greninja but it wont be significantly more powerful than other Mons imo.

  4. My favorite Pokemon type is dog
    Y’know, beats dragon and fairy
    Weak to normal
    Stuff like stoutland, Houndoom, Dustox

  5. Fun fact: Once in a nuzlocke I got a Dustox, got kinda pissed off and named it something random
    Enter Dog the Dustox

  6. So if it’s something new. What do you think Pokenchi will show? The Coro Coro magazine cover is already showing the supposed new Lycanrock form so I would think that it might be first shown in Coro Coro. But what would they show on Pokenchi? Or I could just be wrong.

  7. I’m tired, groggy, bloated and smell like a rotting bobcat,
    But hopefully tonight will be the night it lights a mighty flame under our collective asses

    Also I’m deciding if I wanna 100% Ocarina of Time 3D

    • That’ll remove the purpose of the coloured nectars,but i’d cool to have the possibility of using the nectar in battle to change the form

      Reply
          • You just fight a lower leveled enemy but this move doesn’t make sense anyways, it’s stated multiple times that only nectars can only change Oricorio’s form so it won’t make sense for Oricorio to change the form without any nectar whatsoever and randomly like that.

            Just because USUM is an alternate dimension doesn’t mean that literally anything can happen.

  8. Well Sage Update

  9. So after looking again, I noticed that this Lycanroc has the facial structure of Midday and the manes of Midnight. Fusion/hybrid form?
