They’d have to make a Mamoswine too and it’s not from gen 2
This isn’t real… is it?
Nah. Look at my comment to see why
One of the few leaks I want to be real
Why?
What do you mean why? It’s funny af
From all the leaks, the impossible pineapple is your fav?
I didn’t say it’s my fav, but I still like it :p
Mamoswine ain’t gen 2
NWC is coming back! . . . in the middle of October?
While this is awesome and it means we’ll probably get a direct or something around then, why would they do it now instead of E3 or Gamescom?
Qualifying game is MK7? Why not Deluxe, which you’d think they’d want to promote?
Oh my GOD guys, I NEED that Metroid New 3DS XL. I’m going to replace my plain black one with it. That came so far out of left field.

Real?
Idk but it looks like its using a Fire move in the bottom right of the page. Lmao Fire/Rock is an awful type combination ngl
Does it match the animation of any known fire-type move? It could be a new move entirely. Kind of like how Lycanroc-Midday got Accelrock.
Honestly I personally haven’t given much thought to a potential Dawn form (or whatever you wanna call it) myself. I’m extremely hyped for the upcoming Anime episodes rn due to Ash’s Rockruff evolving lol
Look at my comment above that I just posted. I was wrong about my speculation.
I don’t know if they needed a whole two-page spread dedicated to a single Lycanroc form. I have no idea what Game Freak is thinking anymore.
It could be fake
This honestly seems to be something that Gamefreak would do. I am leaning towards that these leaks are real. It doesn’t scream fan service at all and instead screams minimal marketing, which is the stage that Gamefreak is still at for now.
Idk if it’s fake because the guy also leaked images unrelated to pokemon as well
Wow Two Pages showing off Lycanroc. There better be something explaining it.
Reading the Japanese it says the following:
Lol, you thought we would reveal more?
Yes. Yes I did think you would reveal more
I thought that you would use at least 4 pages to cover the new Lycanroc form. Shame on you for only using two pages!
6th of my new Slavian Form
Slavian Kricketune
Bug/Flying
At night they fly through the air singing their song. They attack by making their song louder to the point of making their enemies deaf. People said that they can fly as long as they are making music.
Signature ability:
Flying Musician
Sound related moves are Flying type moves when Slavian Kricketune use them
Opinions?
Well Joe just put the image up on Serebii, so there is like a 95% of the recently leaked Coro Coro image being real. Supposedly it gets both Accelrock and Counter and its ability is Tough Claws. There is now word on its typing but I am airing on a pure Rock type.
I meant “no word”.
Rock/Fighting PLEASE
Rock/Dark for Dawny
From the way it looks like, I don’t think there is going to be a Dawn form. It was just given the signature moves of the other two forms. What would they do to differentiate from the other three Lycanroc forms.
It could have same/simmilar movesets and abilities, but a diffrent look and typing
Its Rock/Fire
Really?
Source?
Speculation at this point, but in the bottom right corner of the page it seems to be using a Fire move.
You don’t have to be a fire type for that
Couldn’t that move be Howl? I haven’t seen the animation for that move in a while in SM so I am not sure.
Ngl I’m Ok with rock type but they should give it a different typing so it doesn’t feel more like a Midday form clone than it already is
Serebii states that there will be a special Rockruff distribution for USUM starting at November 17th. I guess that this is the only way to get Dusk form smh
Additional details: The special Rockruff will hold a Lycanroc Z-Crystal
I’m getting it if they won’t show anything better
That guess is still a guess. We aren’t certain as to what the special way is to evolve a Rockruff into its Dusk form. Although that is a good assertion since they already got Night and Day covered.
