    Backtracking a bit...

    No, you're wrong.

    The toy was revealed with Kibago's toy. Both were unconfirmed. Then, Kibago was revealed after the toy was, so that confirmed that the toy for this Pokemon and for Kibago were real.

    Then a fake Coro Coro scan came, and it had two new fakemon. One showing a Pokemon based off Yanappu's toy but was NOT Yanappu and was confirmed fake, and still is fake.

    Now, Yanappu is revealed and confirmed to be real.

    The one in the fake Coro Coro scan was named Burokko.

    Here is the fakemon previously revealed and Yanappu next to each other:

    Hiyappu, Baoppu & Yanappu Discussion (new water/fire type monkey)


    Fake is on the left. Real is on the right.

    Also, don't be stupid and say "WELL THEY LOOK SIMILAR SO BUROKKO MUST BE REAL AND RELATED" like a lot of people are saying out of pure idiocy. Burokko looks like Yanappu because it was based off the toy of Yanappu that was already revealed. Burokko is still 100% fake, the creator said so themself. :| Plus, common sense says that any Pokemon revealed on a page along with fake Pokemon, everything on it is fake.
    No, I'm not saying that. Reason I said "fake CoroCoro scan featuring that Pokemon" because a lot of people thought Yanappu (back then thought to be Burokko) was confirmed to be real when that fake scan came. So I already knew that toy wasn't confirmed and that scan is fake.

    Oh right, good call. I was wondering why the types were so awkward in the list... /didn't see the Acrobat video yet

    You guys have sharp eyes. ;D


    This is the video you can see where Acrobat is effective against the grass starter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYaBBMKexYg&feature=player_embedded

    (for some reason when I try to embed it, the video won't show >.>)

    Acrobat would be the second move that doesn't really have to do with flying but jumping, the first was bounce.
    I hope it's evolution is bigger and stronger than Ambipom :)

    Makes sense if Acrobat will be a flying type move. I couldn't see it as anything else besides a normal type. Bounce and Acrobat are similar moves yes, so it becoming a flying type move would be likely.
    Unless they come out with more new types and it falls under one of the new categories of types. I couldn't think of anything and I'm betting on it being a flying type move as well as some of the above posters.

    I'm going to be the odd one out and say that Acrobat probably wouldn't be flying. I understand where most people in this thread are getting the typing from though--obviously because the name indeed does imply that it would be a flying type--but I'm thinking on a much deeper level than that(well, that or I'm probably running on the very little sleep that I'm on like, now lol). What supports the fact that the move is going to be a flying-type other than the name merely suggesting that it is? It is quite the offensive attack, and I think that it would make more sense for it to be a normal type attack than flying, otherwise it wouldn't really do much damage, unless that was the original purpose of the move.

    ...Just my two cents. D:

    Well the move was super-effective on tsutaaja, which is a grass type. Normal moves aren't super-effective against grass types...so that's why everyone's thinking it's flying.

    Unless Tsutaaja got a second type!

    tbh, now I'm going along with flying, too. D: Which means Yanappu will probably evolve, how sad.

    Well Tsutaja is confirmed to be just Grass type [at least until evolution], so the only sensible type for Acrobat is Flying. I really don't want Yanappu to evolve... Evolution usually kills cuteness. I mean look at Slakoth to Slaking. D:

    .. Unless they put a huge flower on his head and tail. Then I may still consider it cute. <3

    Usually a pokemon is all adorable and then turns into more of a monster.

    How can you not find it cute at all? IT IS THE MOST CUDDLY POKEMON EVER!

    Look at my avatar and its sprite, you can't say it's not true. That's like saying Pokemon's awesome Pikachu sucks. :(

    I thought you were talking about Mew having an evolution for a second. XD

    If it evolves, I will not let it unless it's cuter. I will find a way to make Yanappu a great battler!

    Pikachu does suck in my opinion :P

    I find the broccoli monkey cute but I don't like the design of its hands. It's hands like like oven gloves. WHERE ARE THE FINGERS? It is meant to be a monkey!!

    I love that monkey, it's so cute! It's like Ambipom but cuter. I'm going to use it as a Pokemon contest (or whatever contest they have in this generation) Pokemon.
