At the end of last month’s issue of CoroCoro Magazine, they teased that they would reveal 2 things, one how to get Zorua in Black and White, and 2 was they would reveal a new Pokémon – they lied… they revealed a whole load of new Pokémon.
First up, Chiramii, who is classed as the Chinchilla Pokémon. A Normal type, it’s 0.4 meters tall and weighs 5.8kg (that’s 1’4″ and 12.8lbs). It has the abilities Cute Charm and Technician. It will also know a new move, Sweet Slap, which will hit the opponent several times.
This strange pink blob is Munna, the Dream Eater Pokémon. As a Psychic Type, its 0.6 meters tall and weighs 23.3kg (that’s 2’00” and 51.4lbs). It has the abilities Forewarn and Syncronize. It also knows another new move, Telekinesis, which will hold the opponent floating in the air.
Number 3 on our list today is Giaru, the Gear Pokémon. A pure Steel Type, it will be 0.3m tall and 21.0kg in weight (or 1’00” and 46.2lbs). It will know either the Plus or Minus abilities. It will have yet another new move, Gear Saucer, where it will hit the foe several times with 2 gears.
This little guy is called Mamepato, the Baby Pidgeon Pokémon. It’s a Normal and Flying type and will be 0.3m tall and weighs 2.1kg (1’00” and 4.6lbs). It will have the Super Luck ability and a new ability called Pidgeon Breast, which will prevent defense from being lowered. No moves are known for Mamepato yet.
Hihidaruma is the Flaming Pokémon, and obviously a fire type. It will be 1.3m tall and weigh 92.9kg (4’03” and 204.8lbs). It will have a new ability called Encourage, which we currently do not know what it does. No moves are known for this Pokémon yet
Shimama is the Charged Pokémon. An Electric Type It’s 0.8m tall and weighs 29.8kg (2’07” and 65.7lbs). The abilities it could have are Lightning Rod and Motor Drive. A new move it will know will be Wild Volt, which does large damage, but will also hurt Shimama.
Lastly (so far) is Meguroko, The Desert Crocodile Pokémon. It will be a Ground and Dark type, standing at 0.7m tall and 15.2kg in weight (2’4″ and 33.5lbs). Its abilities are Intimidate and a new one, Earthquake Spiral, which will increase attack when the user KO’s an oppoent – useful for large battles.
We also now know the full stats for the legendary Pokémon, Reshiram and Zekrom. Reshiram is the White Yang Pokémon, will be a Dragon and Fire Type, will be 3.2m tall and 330kg (10’6″ and 727.5lbs) It has the Turbo Blaze ability. Zekrom is the Black Yin Pokémon, it is Dragon and Electric type as the recent rumours suggested, will be 2.9m tall and 345kg in weight (9’06” and 760.6lbs). It will have the Terra Voltage ability. We do not know yet what either ability does yet
In other revealed information:
This lady is Professor Araragi, the Pokémon Professor for the region of Isshu. In one of the screens, she has a Chiramii which she shows during the intro speach when you start a new game. We here at the Pika Club suggested that the 5th gen games should have a female professor back in August 2009, before Black and White were even known to be about. Ok, so she looks different, but we suggested a radical suggestion that the games are going in.
Black and White will feature a new item called C Gear which will have “various connection capabilities” – although nobody knows exactly what that means. Next to the screen that reveals this item, the magazine reads “What’s this screen!?… It looks like a new wireless feature was added!”
Speaking of new wireless features (we don’t know if that’s connected to the C Gear or not), there’s a new feature called Random Match in the Global Terminal which allows you to randomly battle anybody (it says from all over the country, though it also says that international players will join in spring 2011, so it will most likely be a world wide random matching). Speaking of Global Terminals, they are now found INSIDE the Pokémon Centers, they’re found upstairs where the old Union Rooms were, we do not know if the Union Rooms are still included or not as a result.
Lastly, Zorua. CoroCoro Magazine revealed last month that it would reveal how to get Zorua in Black and White and they’ve delivered. Zoroark is captured via Transfering the Shiny Legendary Dogs released for the 13th movie and Zorua is similar. By transfering the Celebi given away for the 13th movie, you’ll be able to catch a level 10 Zorua. This is the same Celebi which unlocks an event in HG/SS that will have you battling the old Team Rocket Boss, Giovanni.
Wow – that was a LOT of info, and there could still be more out soon. Pokémon Sunday is set to air Sunday Morning in Japan (so saturday night over here) and they’re expected to revail something new, and CoroCoro isnt officially out yet, so there could still be info, screens or video still to come.
Check out after the Jump for FULL scans of the CoroCoro Screens, which includs more pictures including an arial picture of the Isshu area (with a heavily dense Hiun at the south of the center area)
