For those interested the English version of the lyrics are as follows. The first of our readers to record an English version receives a free year of PokéJungle Premium*!
Pyukumuku-muku Pyukumuku-muku
Pyukumuku-muku Pyukumuku-muku
Slimy, glossy, stationary
Pyukumuku is the name. Come and play along.
Stick out your palm and you’ll have a Staryu
Two palms together and you’ll have a Cloyster
One thumb up and there you have a Burmy
Hit the two together for a Pinsir
Do a “V” sign for Victini, yeah!
Joining forces will give you a Vikavolt
Pyukumuku-muku Pyukumuku-muku
Pyukumuku-muku Pyukumuku-muku
If found on the beach they get tossed back into the sea
They are Pyukumuku. Come and play along.
Make a fist and you will have a Geodude
Put the two together for a Weezing
Rock and scissors will be a Dwebble
Scissors and paper will make a Mantyke
Two Pyukumuku together can form a Voltorb, yeah!
Greater focus for a Z-Move
Pyukumuku-muku Pyukumuku-muku
Pyukumuku-muku Pyukumuku-muku
Let’s all play along with Pyukumuku
Throw it from inside you, Rock Paper Scissors!
So yeah, there’s that. Enjoy it and share you favourite Pokémon-themed songs in the comments!

This is……not one of the cutest songs they’ve put out……It’s fine…….
And while this is happening, I’m busy writing, training up my Xander, and trying to pull Vanguard Ike
I don’t need to listen to any of these because they won’t be as cute as the Mimikyu song
It’s such a weird song and video… but I love Pyukumuku, it’s so squishy https://78.media.tumblr.com/0e5a9f32b21995401e2597410e881083/tumblr_ogstnaQNjT1vgwgd1o3_500.gif

Evos are apparently Grass/Electric, Fire/Steel, and Water. They’re cute asf and I wouldn’t be complaining if they’re real. The bear’s gimmick is amazing
Everyone always beats me to the punch here. I had the pictures loaded and everything.
Been a long time since the last good quality ‘leaks’ so I’m surprised i was first :p
I was on Team Real for the Alola final starter evolution leaks, but this time I’m leaning towards fake. There are some cool concepts with the bear’s face looking like a monster and the coral able to regenerate or whatever, but it’s just too good to be true.
did u fix discord yet
Eh, they’re only leaking a month or two ahead of time if the game is coming 2018
I want the grass one and am intrigued by the Water. The Fire doesn’t look great to me, like a worse Ponyta.
I think it has potential for a good final evolution, especially if it is Fire/Steel.
It has, I’m just not too keen on it as is. I think these are definitely fake tbh, but I’m often wrong so…
Yea the horse’s design just doesn’t stand out for me in comparison too the other two.
I haven’t loved a Fire Starter since Gen 4, this if it were real would not give me much hope this time around either. I guess it could evolve to be amazing though.
I actually like how different it looks to Ponyta. Same concept done differently.
I am just not fond of it, I feel Ponyta does it in a more simple yet better looking way.
If it’s real I feel like its evolution would end up being these best one judging by the past two gens
If it were Fire/Steel as well probably. I’m wondering how it’ll be when it becomes bipedal as we all know it would.
Boy I would love for this to be real! I need that bear in my life now! Can’t tell what the water one is supposed to be based on….some type of coral maybe?
wheres the source
Deleted 4chan thread. Plenty of fake leaks get deleted. I’m not saying they’re fake or real, I just like conversation lol
I love these
But most likely fake, Grass/Electric starter that’s a dead giveaway
how?
Just doesn’t feel right
I mean a Electric plant bear thing? Unless backed up with more data or it was merely a hypothesis (or a drunken stupor post) it just doesn’t feel right
But nonetheless I adore all three and would be mostly fine with them
Fam, it’s Pokémon. Rule of cool/design > logic
That is extremely wrong,
Politely tell me how a snail made of lava makes any fucking sense
I think their entire reasoning was that snails have gelatinous bodies and lava looks gelatinous. That or they came up with the name Magcargo and went from there
Though logically it makes no sense
For sure. Like most pokemon. I don’t really mind as long as they’re well designed tbh.
Agreed
I mean if you just keep ham fisting it no but what does it do incorrectly aside from existing
Honestly its very difficult to explain many fire types. We don’t typically associate animals with fire so a lot of liberties are taken in their designs.
True but most of them boil down (pardon the pun) to creatures that produce fire and creatures who are fire
I mean example Litten produce flames via flame sac while slugma is one who’s body is engulfed with flame
because cats irl have a flame sacs
Piss off it’s a oragan that exists in Pokémon biology
Oragan? ;3
No but for real, the concept of a flame sac doesn’t exactly make much sense
I’ve studied the concept of organic fire breath and it’s not far fetched
-You need a flammable liquid or gas, which could be hypothetically secreted via the organ which could either be produced naturally or influenced by external factors like diet
-Then they need a way to discharge the liquid or gas either by a pressurized bladder or muscle convulsions
-And the most important part is igniting it via a spark, like a minor electrical charge or a open flame
It’s a wad of lava with cooled rock as a Shell makes sense to me
I mean aside from the possibility of sentient lava being inprovable in real life but species and it’s real world elements are fairing finely
Slow moving mollusk
Lava creeps slowly
Slime bodies
The idea works
And it being hotter than the fucking sun works?
Dedenne. Alolan Raichu. Have fun.
Always the easy targets
Always using this excuse because you can’t explain it.
Always picking any Electric rodents because you don’t have better reasons
And I’ve stated numerous times that Dedenne got fairy because of the fairy hype
And A. Raichu makes zero sense whatsoever
Then why can’t the bear just be electric for the sake of it? You try to dismiss it because you have no counter argument at all
Explain your own favorite mon. Why would a rhino have fucking hand cannons
They’re not cannons you dumbass, they’re merely holes in its palms which if you read the dex entry
“ It can launch a rock held in its hand like a missile by tightening then expanding muscles instantly.”
Not just firing them like a magic cannon but perfectly logical ballistic science aka closing pressure causing an object’s energy to build up until it’s own force gives and jettisons out
Why would they give this to a rhino
They still function as cannons
Why not honestly?
Why let an Owl use its own body like a bow and arrow
We don’t know why exactly but at least how it does it makes sense
If magic rules make sense, than magic makes sense
And maybe the bear will make sense lol
Maybe but I want some data on it, maybe it’s bushy hide generates a static field or photo-electro conversion like solar panels
If I call a gun a pew pew and say how it fires projectiles in a different manner, it’s still a gun
Camerupt, Magcargo, wailord half the legends, hell a majority of pokemon as a whole
I already explained camerupt
Magcargo we just did
Wailord no idea what you mean
And legends are off limits
Damn legends are off limits? I forget you use bullshit rules made up by yourself to win arguments, my bad
Wailord in the fact that it’s a fucking whale that’s light
I only say that because they’re stuff of legends and half of them have vastly supernatural abilities which cannot be explained
It’s the float whale
It’s body might actually be vastly hollow and buoyant
‘Legends are off limits because they don’t fit my arbitrary rules’
The Frillish line were meant to be pure water but got ghost smacked on
^^
It’s literally a fucking pringles head with tentacles
If you’re referring to Butters Law I will judge you so hard 👁️👁️
I’m just not believing anything said at the moment
I mean what proof is there than just guessing
The fact they resemble leaks that were proven true?
Anyone could fabricate legit looking fakes if done extensive work on them
-Good artists
-Taking notes on previous concept art (making sure the confidential stamp is authentic looking)
-capturing the “Pokémon Aura” which I can sense with these but it’s fuzzy
I mean remember ol Banana Slug we were sold on it and it ended up being a well made fake
Banana slug was always dubious because it was mid gen and reused the art of old Pokémon
It’s hard to replicate an art style with a new design, thousands of great fan artists try and fail
This ‘Pokémon Aura thing’ is literally just the art style and they’re all in Sugi art style. If they’re fake, they’re absolutely amazing fakes
Both in design and concept
Also it’s strange that they are framed pieces of paper…
Within frames that are far too large for them
Was it ever confirmed fake? I never heard
Its artist came out with it
Aw man
The grass and water type pictures appear to be in the same frame. There’s a little mark (pencil) in the upper right if you zoom in.
Y O U – C A N N O T – D E F E A T – T H E – B U T T E R – L A W
Inb4 gen 8 has three starters that all are part electric
I’ll tell yall about my fetishes if any Gen 8 starter becomes electric (someone screen cap this)
I don’t think anyone wants to know them
f*ck you,I’ll do it anyway
As much as the idea of mono water depresses me, the water starter is fuckin adorable and I NEED it
Evos are just guesses. Don’t take them as fact
>w<
They could be the real typings tho
Can anyone read the Japanese?
Provided these were real and provided the typings were correct, I’d likely be team grass. Again. They honestly have the best designs. (Chesnaught excluded)
I want the water one
I wanna hug it and snuggle it and never let go
It’ll be my boi
It looks spooky. I was thinking water/ghost
YES
I love the designs, hate the typings (except fire)
Tag yourself im squirtle https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/db67fb4c7546e3efd53bca1a22c570ecf2ed4a59891a374103435c1f29e80cb2.jpg

Probably Round boi
Bulbasaur with a hint of snivy and squirtle
Pyuku is perf
Just listened to the song….. as much as I love Pyukumuku I don’t like this song. It just dosent vibe right with me.
So those starters can’t be image traced… we are off to a start
Interesting! They might be just wacky enough to be real (reminding me of how the final alola starter leaks were so absurd and confident in the wacky direction they took that they just about had to be real… though I think I was on team fake then!)
Trueee
Like the bears gimmick reminds me of decidueye (both having really specific hard to come up with ideas). If this is truly fake, the artist has a wonderful imagination.
Agreeddddd
supposedly its been debunked due to Grammar mistakes
Rip
but people have “debunked” the final evos of gen 7 before for the same reason
True, could be a faulty Japanese > Chinese translator or nonsense shorthand
The starter leaks?
*Dying noise*
Yeah it’s a shame too because I actually really liked them too.
Rock Paper Scissors… reminded me that riddle leaker.
What about rock paper scissors?
Until those get proven 100% fake I’m calling the horse Coalt 👀
If they turn out to be real I’m very interested in seeing what the coral one turns into. It’s very different looking and could be a cool looking mon.
Shame it’s rumored to be just water. Water/ ghost or perhaps our first water/poison starter (with an anemone theme) would be sick!
I would have pegged it as water/rock like Corsola, but whatever I guess
Water one maybe Corill (Coral+Krill)
Ayyy
Or charcolt
This song would be hilarious as a parody, going into some dark cult history after they make the Z
Can we just take in the idea that if the starters really are fake the artist who drew them is REALLY talented? Like the drawings are super good.
Not only talented but creative/ imaginative.
Exactly.Not only is the execution done very well, but the general designs are pretty great.
Plus they made all three in Earthen’s taste? That’s incredible! XD
THE WATER ONE IS SO CUTE!!!!! <3
Plus grass/electric would be soooo cool. I’ve always wondered how that could be done conceptually.
I tried a sea anemone
I called it “Anenemi”
Days without Earthen shilling: 0
Is it possible to go into the negatives?
Well a bioluminescent plant that glows via electrical change works too, I merely gave my 2 cents on how it could be done conceptually like he asked
A lawn mower, perhaps? :p
anyone member
http://cdn.themis-media.com/media/global/images/galleries/display/68/68327.jpg
Obviously fake.
I remember those fakes
I’m crying from the bottom one
sammurott is frickin dope
It doesn’t even make sense, why would that awesome looking otter turn into that weird shell-head.
shell sword-two shell swords-2 shell swords and sword armor
Where’s the problem?
It looks too different, it must be a fake.
Ugh gen 5 starter evos have so many flourishes and are so overdesigned… worst gen starters imo
just saying these look alot less detailed compared to the official art we got so hope isnt dead yet
Love the top right
Awwwww, little Earthen, still mixing up left and right
Piss off butters
These fakes were also bad https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c7c006a6b54ca129926c3a4c38e07189c4fc6b1af5007826bd056f4738bed8f9.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3afa875c8efff344ab79532c1af15941e399aa45a8a53530dfedda54bd2add35.jpg
The Japanese on the Poppilo final is off
What kinda names are Owl3, Tiger3, and SeaLion3 lol
see this is why you cant take grammar mistakes as almost fake
Codenames
sarcasm
Tfw the Kalos starters are actually fake leaks GameFreak took and put in the game because they are just THAT bad
Delphox is sooooo close to looking cool. Like sooo close. But those ears and it’s face……
I wasn’t really paying attention to gen 5 at this time, but were those leaks? Cuz if so, are they also framed? 😀
yea they were
I remember those. That was an interesting time too. Never would have expected to see those on 4chan
So as a huge fan of Pokémon conquest, id really like if all of the official art for each Pokémon got updated to be in powerful, dynamic stances like they were in that game. Seeing samurott, chesnaught, serperior, and delphox look so stiff is kinda irritating.
I mean, this is a game where we fight monsters. The least they could do is make each one look like a worthy opponent willing to battle by updating their stances and making each one look super cool like conquest did. You could have a jigglypuff in conquest and it looked like it had as much angst as zekrom.
Agreeed

Is that first one conquest? It looks familiar and sooo badass
I think both are but I never played it so idk.
I can’t tell if this is impressive or sad
I’m juggling playing Splatoon on the switch while argument posting on my phone while I continue to soft reset for the Celebi

I think you’re forgetting about this
I didn’t forget, I just thought multi-arm might be enough.
What I would want for the Leaks’ designs:
Grass/Rock Cave bear (extinct species) (the starter hides in a cave)
Fire/Steel bipedal cyborg/terminator like horse with some sort of blaster on its hoof or head (as an unicorn horn)
And I have two ideas for the water
Water/Dark humanoid, with internet culture themes sprinkled in (it argues and gets angry, it likes to mock others, but it’s also sad inside)
or Water/Ghost. I have no idea for what it could be, but that typing just feels right for it
HUMANOID!? DON’T EVEN
Water ghost is great
Grass/Rock is a decent type, though I would be more intrigued by the idea of Grass/Electric.
Nope.
Noper. Though Water/Ghost would be good as we’ve had less of them.
So besides starters, region theme, and legends, who’s thinking of going into gen 8 relatively blind? I’m considering it so it brings me back to my childhood of going into gen 3 and 4 blind but I don’t know if I have the self control to not watch trailers and look at leaks!
not enough self control, plus discussion here and leak/trailer season can be real fun
Right? I love leak season with y’all and dissecting trailers, and I’ve heard horror stories from my friend who’s brother raised a male salandit to level 50 or something because he had no idea. Idk….
Same, I’ll be outy after E3
awww…
That seems like a good time to leave too.
Once we know as much as they tell us, im dipping before leaks
No I want to be able to see the game when I play it.
I don’t understand what you mean?
I was joking, I know you didn’t mean literal blindness.
Oh gotcha. That went right over my head.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zXDo4dL7SU
Then just get glasses 👀
I CAN SEE CLEAAAARLY NOW THE RAIN IS GONE
Glasses are not a cure for blindness.
F*ck that
Absolutely
I think why Pokémon has gone a bit bland for new games for me is due to me already knowing everything by the time I get it.
I’m quite scares about those supposed leak. The water starter is cool but not that water type in design. The grass one is too standar like (the chespin/oshawott/piplup zone) and the fire one just screams fighting type with that punching-like nose
How dare you group Piplup with much worse starters
Cause they are copy-paste designs but sure piplup is the best of the group
Smh
Wouldn’t worry about. the text is a mess with weird and potentially straight up wrong grammar. GF likely wouldn’t frame concept art that has errors like that. They’re likely fake…..that said I’m kind of said as I really like them……..
My guesses for starter types even if the leak included them and they’re irrelevant
Bear
Grass/Electric based on its bioluminescence (and the leaker’s type)
Grass/Dark based on bear stereotypes
Grass/Rock combining the bear and its cave
Horse
Fire/Steel based on mechanical transport (such as bikes) combined with horses (maybe even a horse and carriage/chariot fusion) (and the leaker’s type)
Fire/Flying based on a pegasus (would be our first pegasus mon, but may be an issue because Charizard)
Fire/Fairy based on a unicorn (may be deemed too similar to Rapidash)
Fire/Fighting based on the best type
Coral
Water based on the fact it’s hard to give it another type (and the leaker’s type)
Water/Ghost based on coral bleaching – although the coral isn’t actually dead whilst it does this, it can die if it does it for too long and rids of its symbiotic relationships. Could also be a pun on ‘white as ghost’ or ‘wight’ as in dead.
Water/Rock because coral (may be deemed too similar to Corsola)
actually I can easly see the coral being either ghost, dark, ground, fairy. The real problem is that it’s difficult to see water in it XD
*motorbikes
Grass/Electric or Grass/Rock would be my preference, much as I love Dark types.
Fire/Steel or Fire/Fairy work for me, one has only been used once and the other an unused type.
Water/Ghost please.
I think a lot of people want a grass/ dark raccoon
*tanooki
It’s partially because of the Leak from some time ago
I’d like that too. I just think the other 2 types for the bear could be more interesting.
I just realized the grass starter is literally Butter’s fanmon
Don’t insult fakebear like that pls
It’s a similar concept though.
But betterIf it’s Grass/Rock then yeah.There are diffrences, but yeah, pretty simmilar if it’s Rock in the end
I predicted a Fire/Fairy bipedal Unicorn some time ago, kinda hope that’ll happen
> Bipedal horse
D I S G U S T I N G
GF will never do a quadruped Fire starter
btfo patternkid
GF will never make a ghost starter
What
Who said that before Gen 7?
The fact that GF changed quadruped to bipedal 3 gens in a row has to be saying something
“What
Who said that before Gen 7?”
Um quite a few people actually lol
People also said that a starter wouldn’t change its dual type but look at Dartrix
I like how charizard is in your logic against fire/flying but we’ve had three starters with fire/fighting…
Because it’s the best type
The boi
Shame they’re fake af cos i would love a Griffon pokemon https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/24cf6850574dad97230a4cef32b497fbc75aef4a36addb12130215bd212d7ef5.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/3a3b93dfe4160cd684e833fa7010500134419688ac1579220cae4ff96b7e6199.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/71176756591c91d060c04d4ae6e34f82096b9777aaead2ddba9fb523bd492f15.jpg
Late af dude, half the comments on the articles are about these things :p
They could be real
Want to believe you but it seems way too early for it
How the f*ck is it too early?
It’s been in development since some time after Sun/Moon’s release
Is there need for the language lol he was just sharing his thoughts
I don’t want to insult him or anything, I just can’t get how he can think it’s STILL too early
Because the game may be a 2019 release and nothing this concrete has leaked this far in advance?
You probably said that in 2016 too :p
Not at all. Pokémon concepts are some of the earliest things done in development
It does seem weird they’d leak this early, unless it’s a 2018/early 2019 release. I’d say if April comes with no contradiction of these beforehand we could probably assume they’re fake.
I mean how would you account for the grammar errors on the page then? I love these designs, but I can’t get past. If the grammar was correct or at least made a little more sense then I’d be all on board, but it doesn’t look like ti is. I can’t believe GF would frame concept art that would have grammar errors instead of just fixing it before framing.
Apparently the Alola starter leaks had grammatical errors as well. And, well, if you’re framing concept art you care more about the visuals than the art.
Did they tho? Iirc the text was too blurry to fully read it all and the stuff they could read was more or less fine. Do you have any examples? I’d like to jog my memory if this is the case.
No because I don’t tend to remember obscure details of leaks from years ago, it’s just heresay from what I’ve heard
*visuals than the writing lol
What are these grammar errors?
Apparently like “view front” instead of “front view” on the horse page and apparently using different tenses for the water starters page when referring to it being happy and mad. It could be stuff that’s neglegible, but I’m not so sure.
I wouldn’t say ‘view front’ is terribly incorrect grammar because it’s not grammatically incorrect from what I can tell. It’s a command (‘view the front’) rather than a label (‘this is a view from the front’), which is important because concept art is there to show how something works – in this case, directing the artist to look at the front of the ‘mon to see what it’d look like with another perspective. For example, its ears look totally different from the side, whilst the front shows how they’re actually laid out.
Tenses are also really minor because the person looking at the art will know what it means. Also, considering the fact that only one visual shows it with a part of it broken, it’d make sense if they’re treating it as an individual – ‘this is how it has/will act in this scenario’ and then ‘this is how it is acting in this scenario’.
Then again this is from an English speaker.
You’re not wrong that in English it’s not a deal breaker, bit in Japanese where each set of characters are used very specifically it seems a bit odd that someone that is Japanese would make mistakes like that. Especially if it’s supposed to be professional work. They could be real, but I’m just not sure
Concept art is no stranger to grammar errors. Most English concept art I’ve seen is very light on words and it’s not uncommon for it to be unclear or even outright erroneous. They could obviously be fake but I don’t think the grammar is a be all end all
Yeah, but that’s English. The Japanese language is very specific and often uses different characters to depict context rather than using general words to do it. That’s why English and Japanese are so very different.
Grammar mistakes happen in any language. Heck, for all we know the incorrect Japanese could be because they’ve got foreigners working on the concept art. They wouldn’t be the first Pokemon made by a westerner.
What matters is having the art up for everyone on the project to see rather than shitty grammar
Yeah, but even if they were writing on short hand you’d think someone that is fluent in Japanese wouldn’t make grammar errors just to do that.
Wouldn’t be the first time
I just realised I have basically just 1 mon I really don’t like
??
Lickylicky. I can forgive GF making Lickytung, it was Gen 1 but the fact that they made an evo to it that isn’t any better in Gen 4, is just annoying me a lot.
I guess Incineroar
Only one?
