6th Gen Official September CoroCoro Discussion Thread -- Mega Evolutions, New Pokémon, More!

[ricki13th]

I love the new rabbit pokemon bunnelby its kinda cool and looks like one of those cartoon rabbits.

Being the digging pokemon it reminds me of diglett cause its also a digging pokemon so once it evolves (which I'm looking forward to) it may become a Normal/Ground type which is pretty cool.

Dedenne looks like more like Raichu's pre-evo than Pikachu lol. Its fat like the original pikachu you get in Pokemon Yellow. The electric/fairy typing is also pretty cool so it may not be as bad as what some may make it but then again no one knows the base stats of any pokemon yet.

With one more corocoro leak next month I expect some more Megaevolutions, starters evolution, and all the gym leaders announced. So the next may not be as big as this since this is the scoop of the century but it may have just as much info to drive home and sell the games right before the release date.

I just can't wait to hear the music themes for the gyms, gym leader and Lumios, and I also wonder if Mega Evolution also adds extra instruments to the battle music maybe? (doubtful, but it'd be cool)

Nevermind...I just used insert image XD

I definitely love Bunnelby, and given it uses Dig I am hoping its evolution gets a Ground-type, it would bring another unused type combination to the scene, and one I always wanted to see. If it is the early-route rodent, I'd finally want to use an early-route rodent for once because this thing reminds me of cartoon rabbits too like what you said.

And while Dedenne looks like Raichu in some way, it's based on a hamster which I don't believe we have seen a Pokemon based on it yet, now only if they made a dolphin Pokemon. Although the name looks pretty hard to say, I might say it as "dee-den" for now until I hear the official pronunciation.

Also, Skiddo is confirmed to get Sap Sipper as an ability so I'm betting Gogoat will get that ability too. In the trailer, Skiddo was seen using a Grass attack which looks a lot like Leaf Blade to me.

^Oh, I have by referring to him as DAY-DEN, but you could certainly be right. And it's nice to see someone else given Bunnelby some love!

It's name makes me think of Dende from DBZ
I figured it was pronounced Deh-den or Deh-denay
Although, Knowing pokemon, Day-den might be right, or Day-denay

So, Korrina was giving many of us a fighting-type vibe with her kicking pose and althletic aesthetic.
But, I completely missed the badge shape which nearly confirms fighting. Nearly...

So it looks like we have Bug, Rock, Fighting, Electric or the marginal possibility of Steel for gym types.

Has anyone else thought of the possibility of a...
Dual-type gym?

 

[Entermaid]

I have thought about it, but I just don't know if GF will break that mold, but from the looks of it, it certainly could be a possiblity given the mold breaking we have observed thus far. It is odd that Viola's type was revealed while the rest are not. But, I really like the idea of a dual gym with a two-member team. Like Liza and Tate just with different types.

The pokebeach leak, that it mostly confirmed, didn't seem to indicate dual type gyms.

So we'll have to wait and see on this one.

I don't think we'll get another Multitype gym this generation (Blue's the only one we've seen).

Definitely, Blue needs to keep his unique status as only multityped Gym Leader.

Although I am hoping we get a Dark-type Gym finally. With Korrina, Maylene is no longer the sole female Fighting-type Gym Leader. Both their Sugimori art also depict them kicking, which is some fun coincidence.

More Fighting Gym leaders!
I hope we get Dark and Fairy-typed gym leaders.

Yeah, but Game Freak please break the Dark-type Gym drought. We already had three Dark-type Elite Four members but no Gym Leaders. A Fairy-type Gym would be a great way to learn about the type itself and I remember when a rumor claimed a possible Gym lineup but it was probably fake because Korrina nor a Fighting Gym Leader wasn't mentioned.

Nice combination; a normal/ground cartoon rabbit, I think probabilities are higher for it's evolution to be that type combination. Also the pokemon that looks like raichu looks a lot like a hamster to me too and also would like a dolphin pokemon in the series too.

I don't know if they are going to make a fairy gym or a fairy elite four/champion, but would be interesting; of course, pokemon for being in elite four/champion must be really strong and difficult to defeat, I hope at least some of the new fairy types are strong enough to the level of those dragon types.

Dark seems to be an elite four thing though...

 

[OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire]

MegaMawile sounds like a force to be reckoned with. If a normal Mawile had Huge power it's attack stat would max out at 590. Now consider that MegaMawile will have higher stats...one of which could be it's attack...and also remember that Mawile can learn a priority move...

Don't lie and try to save face. These Mega Pokemon are totally a Digimon copy lol..

Anyway, I'm sure Korrina is a Fighting type leader. Her Gym Badge is a boxing glove.

Can it really be a copy when the thing copied was already a copy of what was copying them?

(I'mnotseriousdon'tyouguysfrakinstart!)

Are we sure its a Badge? I won't doubt she'd be fighting type since she's in Roller Derby gear and that is a brutal sport.

Thank goodness you put that disclaimer or you'll have baited those digimon fans amongst us...

I hope that there'll be more special based fighting types so that she can have a mix. And maybe more special defensive and defensive fighting types too while they're at it.
