The mystery Pokemon reminds me of a Bald Eagle for some reason.

Conan Edogawa July 10th, 2010 4:06 PM

I agree, probably a Bald Eagle type creature. The furry/feathery legs is a trait of an Osprey though, and the more I look at it the more it looks like Eagle/Griffin mix.

o0PinkSquid0o July 10th, 2010 4:06 PM

I think it might be Mamepato's 3rd Evolve :) Unless its a bird on its own like Skarmory?

countryemo July 10th, 2010 4:06 PM

it might be the evo for the bird one. im no good with japaneese names :P
there was a rumor that his final evo will be a eagle/hawk type thing.
But we'll see when corocoro is leaked and we get more info :D (and more new pokes? the already been allot latley o.o)

i hope it's a different flying type... i'm sick of the normal-flying pokes at the beginning of each gen.

Masterge77 July 10th, 2010 4:09 PM

WHO'S THAT POKEMON?

It's Ho-oh XD

Just make a Pure Flying type, sheesh!!!!

Dark Piplup July 10th, 2010 4:09 PM

I'd say the mamepato's final evolution or they have a new trio of legendary birds. But... probably not

I hope so too.
I hope its a different Pokemon all on its own.
cause it looks like its going to be epic.

XxRogueTrainerxX July 10th, 2010 4:14 PM

I hope this isn't Mamepato's 3rd evolved form... personally, I think it'd be cool if it was Dark/Flying, similar to Honchkrow, but not as bloated...

^^This, please this. XD Or a Fighting/Flying. XD

Silver25 July 10th, 2010 4:20 PM

I'm thinking it is Mamepato's 3rd evo and it does look like an eagle. I believe there has never been an eagle based pokemon as of yet and I expected something like this, especially since Isshu looks to be based of the US. Could be pure flying, normal/flying, or maybe flying/water since that's where the bald eagle gets their main food supply. Of course these are just guesses...

Cyberglass July 10th, 2010 4:23 PM

I hope it actually IS Mamepoto's final evolution, since this looks epic and it would be nice to have a strong early pokemon for a change (Staraptor was okay, but this looks way better).

Logiedan July 10th, 2010 4:41 PM

Mamepoto doesn't look like an eagle-type bird. O:
Hopefully it will evolve into that because then i'll really consider Mamepoto in my team. It'll be like my Pidgey.

Haza July 10th, 2010 4:59 PM

Kinda looks like Spearow but I'm sure it's an eagle. Would be awesome if it was Flying/Electric.

Isshu has already been proven to be in Japan.

America can't be the only Country with a "bald" eagle, so the bird pokemon could just be a normal eagle or another type of bird. But at first I thought it was another Spearow evolution.

Proven to be Japan? There isn't any actual proof that Isshu is anywhere on Earth.

Haza July 10th, 2010 5:19 PM

I'm with Mistah Dude... I still think the America clues are adding up. I even see Coney Island.

When I first saw the Silhouette not too long ago, that's the first type that ran through my mind, a Flying/Electric type. The only other type Pokémon that had that was Zapdos, who's a legendary Pokémon. It'd be cool to have a non-legendary take role of that duo type again. On the other hand, it could be another legendary for this generation being revealed early.

However, my mind has also drifted to the possibility of it being the region's main bird Pokémon's third stage in evolution. If so, then it's going to be pretty sick and possibly one of the best designed Pokémon for a region's Flying type.

I'm going with the Eagle/Griffin thought though. From it's large look and feathers nearing the claws, it can take that aspect I'd think.

Phoenix-f- July 10th, 2010 5:40 PM

At first i thought about Tumbler pigeon from its legs, but now it seems more eagle-ish.
Looks like Mamepato's final evolution and it has resemblance to Hatoopoo.

Blueknight July 10th, 2010 6:02 PM

It looks awesome. I really do think it is an evo of that pigeon pokemon.
I hope it's a Flying/Fighting or just flying, but I'm not going to get my hopes up.

PiPVoda July 10th, 2010 6:05 PM

If it's an eagle then from its stance it looks pretty strong. It could be Mamepato's 3rd evo, I haven't seen the second yet I think, but from the way it appears I wouldn't say so. This looks like a totally new bird that could turn out to be pretty strong. Gen 1 had Pidgey, Spearow, and Aerodactyl (though it's not a bird, oh well). Isshu will have Mamepato and this (assuming it's not Mamepato's evo).

Okay, but what if it isn't a bald eagle. It could always be a golden eagle (first thing that comes to mind), or a different eagle.

Isshu is based off of Manhattan (and the area around it.)

Ho-Oh July 10th, 2010 6:27 PM

This bird looks like it'll be awesome. I want. <3

As for typing, I don't really care, though I'm thinking fire, idk I see large birds as fire types.

And I really don't think it will be related to Mamepato. Just because its a bird doesn't mean it has to be related to the first bird we've found out about. :(

Seems more like its based off of all of America rather than just Manhattan. I dont think there are any deserts around New York.

MistahDude July 10th, 2010 6:32 PM

This pokemon could actually be a Fearow evo.

It doesnt have to. There have been pretty huge leaps in evolutions.

Dragonair to Dragonite
Remoraid to Octillery
Magikarp to Gyarados
Feebas to Milotic

I meant like in shape-wise Geographically. There's no desert in japan but that didn't keep them from making one. follow this link http://www.newyorktours.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/manhattan-3d-map.jpg Now imagine that at a different angle and compare it to this http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Isshu.png

Isshu actually looks a lot like all of America. Lots of forests with mountains, deserts and technology.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 10th, 2010 6:41 PM

I hope this new Pokemon is Flying/Fight :)! It could use those huge claws on it's feet to do kicking and fighting moves :P
I wish Staraptor was part fighting type...

As I've stated before, it could be either one as I'm not exactly sure and I'm not going to make an exact speculation, but initially I was one to believe that it was Mamepato's 3rd evo, and it's within good reason.

Although it can very well be a standalone bird, though it would be unusual to introduce a Pokemon solely on it's own unless there was something really special about it.

I believe it has a pre-evo, just not Mamepato. But thing is, most of the newer Pokemon that look to be evolved forms, well... people are basically saying they're related to what we already know. There is a chance that it's a third evo, just in the past there have been other Pokemon that looked similar and not even related.

But either way, the body shape of Mamepato compared to Habootoo and this eagle doesn't really match up, but if you want to believe that, then go ahead. I'd say the Eagle would have a smaller pre-evo, like a crow or something, lol. Or it could even be an alternate evo to Murkrow! I wish.

Oh, and I bet Ash will own it at one point.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 10th, 2010 6:45 PM

Well starly went from being a starry to a hawk so this new Pigeon can go from Pigeon to Eagle :)

Eternal Nightmare July 10th, 2010 6:48 PM

The first thought that ran through my mind when I say this is its either an eagle or a gryphon. Personally both of those would be really cool additions. The gryphon could be fire/flying while the eagle will get stuck with the generic normal/flying type combination ><. I'm actually getting sick of normal/flying type birds :<.

And no I don't see how this could be Mamepato or Fearrows evo. Mamepato is a pidgeon since when can a pidgen become an eagle....only in pokemon right...go ahead and bring up remoraid > octillery :|. And its a little smaller than Fearrow and when pogeymanz evolve they get bigger and wider :>.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 10th, 2010 6:52 PM

Let's hope that this new eagle is like Bidoof in breaking a pattern...you see how Bibarrel broke the pure Normal second evo well maybe this one can break the Normal/flying pattern and turn to Flying/Fighting :)!

PokémonTrainerRuby July 10th, 2010 6:53 PM

Looks like a mix of Pidgeot and Fearow

Iceshadow3317 July 10th, 2010 6:54 PM

Well I have always loved flying pokemon and almost all my teams have one in them. So as logn as it is an Eagle/Hawk/Falcon. I am all for it.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 10th, 2010 6:56 PM

Well Iceman it looks like it has a very high chance at being a Hawk, Eagle, or Falcon :)

Iceshadow3317 July 10th, 2010 6:57 PM

Lol. It would be even better if it was a Golden Eagle.

yung_link July 10th, 2010 6:59 PM

it looks like a regular bird, so im thinking Normal/Flying. it has to be the evo of something though, its too big not to be. it'd be awesome if it was Fearow's evo...

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 10th, 2010 7:00 PM

Yeah it would be but it looks like it's a bald eagle this time around :P

PiPVoda July 10th, 2010 7:00 PM

^^ My thoughts exactly.

Magma already mentioned it being flying/fighting and that would be a good idea too since most birds are annoyingly normal/fying. If this one isn't a mamepato evo, then there could be a chance it will be the first pure flying type.........a boy can dream, can't he?

MistahDude July 10th, 2010 7:03 PM

http://i762.photobucket.com/albums/xx264/MistahDude/fearowlooksevo.jpg?t=1278817234

I am bad at making silhouettes, but I hope you see the resemblance.

Oh and I would like to bring up that Spearow is based off a falcon.

From Bulbapedia:
Quote:

It has been suggested that Spearow resembles a falcon of some sort rather than a sparrow.
With this being said it would make sense for Fearow to become more Falcon like. We would have to deal with everyone naming it Captain though.

PiPVoda July 10th, 2010 7:07 PM

In your comparison Mistah Dude, to me it looks too small to be a fearow evo, I could be wrong. I am thinking that if it is somehow related to fearow that it could be another evo of spearow. Like with Kirlia and Gardevoir/Gallade.

I don't think it can be. Roost drops the Flying type, so it would be typeless if it used Roost, and all bird-like Pokemon can Roost right?

I haven't really read up on Fearow's origins, so I might be missing something).

i see what you mean, but its not that drastic if you think of some of the evos they've made. look at Carvahna & Sharpedo, two completely different species of fish but they are both well-known for the same thing; eating people. Fearow's a bird of prey, and this guy's talons scream bird of prey so im just sayin.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 10th, 2010 7:19 PM

Yung is right about the connection...but from a piranha to Shark doesn't seem as drastic as fearow turning into a Eagle...

grey†fish July 10th, 2010 7:20 PM

I've a feeling it's gonna be part-Flying… :P

Looks really cool and ferocious, :)
Probably going to be the evolution of Mamepato and confirm to everyone that Isshu IS based in NYC… pidgeons and bald eagles
(I know there's no bald eagles pretty much anywhere in the US now, but they're still the national emblem. Damn murderers! :()

To whoever suggested that it is Fearow's evolution: I honestly believe that there's a bigger chance of the Pokémon creators making Fearow evolve into Ho-Oh instead… I mean, if all you're basing yourself in is a very slight similarity, you're better off putting your money on Ho-Oh! :P

Just because they have a Eagle and pidgeons doesn't actuary work as proof of t being based on NY as we had rhinos and Ostriches in gen 1 and that wasn't Africa :P
Though I still believe it's in NY but that doesn't work as good proof.

yung_link July 10th, 2010 7:24 PM

Roost doesnt drop Flying type, they are still weak to Electric, Ice, and such, it simply makes them susceptible to Ground type moves. just like how Foresight makes Ghost types susceptible to Fighting and Normal types. Pirahna→Shark makes less sense than (whatever bird Fearow is)→Falcon/Eagle?

...Actually it does drop flying, and I know because I use the move when I am weak on energy and I'm about to be attacked by Ice and it isn't SF any more :P

Air Pichu July 10th, 2010 7:30 PM

Looks pretty cool, I like it.
I think it'll be related to Memepato.

Resembles domr kind of eagle, definitely.

Zeturic July 10th, 2010 7:31 PM

MagmaRuby and AquaSapphire is correct about roost.

The first thing I thought from the silhouette was a vulture.

It's simply due to misunderstanding, it's not what they're known for.

Plus, like a previous poster said, it seems as if this Pokemon is a tad bit too small to be a Fearow evolution, but I don't know. You do have a point by saying that these are both birds of prey, but one doesn't automatically jump to the other unless there's some legend that I'm missing or something, and it's not definite that this certain Pokemon is a falcon or an eagle.

they are merely well-known for it due to movies such as "Jaws". i didnt say they do it on purpose, sorry if it sounded like i did. they look about the same size to me, only they seem to emphasize on the other bird's size somehow. its not certain, but its a high possibility its one of those two.

oh...well my bad, im still learning about 4th gen moves. if they do ever want to make a pure flying type, then they might need to fix that...

Not really. Just make every type neutral for that turn.

Twilight Sky, it does erase the flying type. I promise.

Quoted from Bulbapedia:

Roost restores half of the user's maximum HP. If the user is a Flying-type, it will lose its Flying-type (thus being treated as a single-type Pokémon) until the next turn. If a non-Flying-type uses Roost, then there are no additional side-effects.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 10th, 2010 7:45 PM

Well I think if we ever have a pure flying type it has to be some type of creature that continues flying forever without rest and doesn't look like a dragon,bat,ect...

BlueShuckle July 10th, 2010 7:52 PM

It looks like an evolution of Fearow to me.

It losses it's resistance and all of flying type weaknesses do normal damage per that turn as long as your pokemon uses the move before your opponent act's...

MistahDude July 10th, 2010 7:58 PM

It is most likely a Fearow evolution but I hope it doesn't turn out to be Normal/Flying. Fearow is able to learn a bunch of dark type moves and is a mix between a Vulture and a Falcon. It may evolve into even more of a Vulture Falcon mix and become Dark/Flying!

Falcons are symbols of justice and Vultures are symbols of evil. It could very well embrace the Vulture part of its design and become dark out of the pure evil.

Its also very likely for Fearow to get an evolution because of its stats.

HP: 65
ATK: 90
DEF: 65
SPA: 61
SPD: 61
SPEED: 100

An evolution can put it up from NU to OU easily. It is fast as Staraptor, a very decent BL pokemon. If its attack rose beyond 120 it would be even stronger than Staraptor!

TwinkleClefable July 10th, 2010 7:59 PM

I thought it was Dyna Blade...http://images.absoluteanime.com/kirby/dynablade.gif

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 10th, 2010 8:00 PM

It's most likely to be a whole new bird or the final evolution to the Pidgin pokemon we have :)

Jerme July 10th, 2010 8:04 PM

i heard that when flying types use roost, they become ??? type for one turn which is why they have no weaknesses or anything.

edit: but wait if its dragon/flying, does it just drop its flying type, still having weaknessea?

Astinus July 10th, 2010 8:06 PM

I don't care what it is, what it's an evolution of, what it's typing is. I just want one. It first struck me as a griffin, and then as an eagle, because there's no body of a lion. idk. I just really like birds that are like that, that prey on small critters.

And really, if the silhouette is related to any bird with "earow" in its name, it strikes me more as a side-evolution to Spearow. They both have the same crown of feathers on the head, the same hooked beak, and the same feet. That's just what I see. And even though they're both birds of prey...well, other Pokemon species have qualities in common with other species, but they all don't evolve into one another. So I can understand having one bird of prey based on an anhinga and another based on an eagle.

But I'm hoping that it's a standalone Pokemon, or that it's evolution line doesn't involve Spearow or Fearow in any way. I would like Isshu to be overrun with the region's own Pokemon, not Pokemon that I've seen/used before.

If it did evolve from Fearow it would become faster than all current birds.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 10th, 2010 8:12 PM

If only Dodrio had a evolution...
Well I think it has no connection to any past region :)

Zeturic July 10th, 2010 8:12 PM

Sigh...

The way Roost works is if it used by a Normal / Flying type, any attack by the opponent on that turn would act as though the Pokemon was pure normal type (e.g. weak to Fighting, but not to Electric). It's the same with any other type it may have. If it's Dragon/Flying, it would turn into a pure Dragon-type, being weak only to Dragon and Ice, though Ice would do double and not quadruple like it usually would.

If a pure Flying-type (Arceus) is hacked to have Roost, it just has no weaknesses or resistances that turn.

If Fearow gets an evolution then that means every pretty terrible normal-type gets one, and that plain doesn't really make any sense.

If anything, I don't think it's attack would surpass staraptor's attack or else it'd be somewhat of a parallel to Honchkrow and well...we already have a a decent enough dark/flying, if you ask me.

Skorupi was Bug/Poison and evolved into Bug/Dark out of nowhere.



If Fearow evolved it would POSSIBLY surpass all current bird pokemon in speed. The only bird pokemon that Fearow doesn't out speed right now is Lugia (speed of 110) and Swellow (speed of 125).

It may or may not have a higher attack than Honchkrow. It would make a lot of sense if it did because Fearow's build seems to be High attack and High speed but low defenses.

I could see Fearow having a higher speed than 125 and a higher attack than 125, but crappy defenses. He would become a quick killer.

Oh yeah forgot about Arceus being pure flying type :P
I hope we can get a true pure flying type...

That would practically make it a Physical Sweeper!

Well I think it has no connection to any past region :)

He has changed my mind again! =O
True, it may not be related to any of the past pokemon
it may be the third evo since the was a rumor about this, or a fearow one hmm.
Well Magma prob is right anyways. he ussually is >.>

Yeah it looks like a third evolution of our regional bird :)

And in reality, it would be the exact same thing as Honchkrow, no more and no less. Honchrow has a base 125 attack and 105 special attack. If anything, if would have an evolution, it would have at least some HP to balance it out along with medicore speed and pretty pathetic defenses, to say the least. And this is just to balance it out, to be honest, so it doesn't become too overpowered.

So basically, if Fearow were to get an evolution, it would go from weak to only average at best, since it's really not that hard to take down something like Honchkrow considering that it can't take a hit.

I believe he was talking about the typing of the scorpions which went form Poison/bug to Poison/dark...

Fearow is as fast as most birds out there, but not as strong. If he becomes faster he would be a threat to reckon with.

I could see his 90 attack becoming 110-ish and his 100 speed going higher than 130.

The only thing keeping Fearow in NU is his attack.

Fearow's defenses are also higher than Honchkrows by about 12.

A spontaneous change in type is highly unlikely and IMO has never really been done, so it probably never will.
It would also make sense for Fearow to become dark type to better fit its characteristics.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 10th, 2010 8:33 PM

Well now I want a Fearow evo but I don't think this one is a evolution of it. I wonder what new silhouettes we might get...

We are getting close to the release of the games. I bet you the September issue will have all of them in there.

Bug to Dark isn't completely off the wall. Looking at Drapion, Dark fits it better but it is still similar to Skorupi. Normal to Dark is random and unexpected with Fearow.

I am bad at making silhouettes, but I hope you see the resemblance.

• Smaller wings
• Straight-edged wings
• Smaller beak
• More compact anatomy
• No chest-tuft
• Tufts around talons
• Small head-tuft
• Different tail shape
• Strong, thick legs
• Completely different type of bird

I highly doubt this is related to Fearow.

Bamboo Basara July 10th, 2010 8:48 PM

I'm going to laugh if this bald eagle has male pattern baldness to contrast Staraptor.

Jerme July 10th, 2010 8:56 PM

hahaha wow people here never cease to amaze me with their ridiculous conclusions. 1st were people were saying munna will evolve into drowzee.......

how the hell can that thing be related to fearow, just because it has similar wing shape, tail shape?

Dillon_68 July 10th, 2010 8:56 PM

I think it might be a Legendary, it's kinda funny how they singled this Pokemon out to be revealed, it must be special. A bald eagle legend would kind of support the whole America-based region theory.

actually it wouldn't because Hoenn has the golems which are found in Jewish myth does that mean Hoenn is somewhere in Israel? So it can't be used as proof to support the American based region theory, you see the regional=real world counterpart theory is based more on the geography of a region compared to a part in real life not what the pokemon are based on!
Though like I said before I myself think it's based in NY but using pokemon designs isn't proof enough.

well yea, small stuff like that is usually passed on to evos...

But why would it need to? I'm always stuck on the reasoning that every Pokemon needs an evolution to be strong in competitive play. Some Pokemon are always going to be NU or UU.

Besides, all the Speed stat in the world isn't going to help Fearow if it doesn't have strong Defenses or Attack. Fearow doesn't learn Close Combat, so even if it's fast and facing off against a Rock or Steel type, it's going to do nothing. It doesn't even learn Brave Bird.

A 70 for base Defense stat (rounded to an even number, sorry) really isn't helpful in competitive play.

And if any Pokemon needs an evolution or two to not be NU, it's Luvdisc. But I don't see anyone asking for that.

And to Ravecat, thank you for pointing out more differences between the birds that I didn't see.

ha remember the zoorat silhouette, people thought it was gonna be a lucario evo and over 100 people made fan art silhoutettes?

they were all wrong.

Dedemaru July 10th, 2010 11:41 PM

In my opinion, it's clearly an eagle! The neck area gives it away! Looks just like a bald eagle!

It's Mamepato final evolution and when they reveal the silhouette, they'll show the evolutionary chain of him, since we already know the first evo.

Otherwise, it's clearly a tiger with wings, never a eagle, never! :D

Ho-Oh July 11th, 2010 12:07 AM

Try to include four words in your post. :(

Also, I hope the eagle doesn't turn out like the bottom image, it's quite unappealing D:

Droidz July 11th, 2010 12:21 AM

The Eagle looking Pokemon looks pretty cool.

Haza July 11th, 2010 12:42 AM

I'm sick of silhouettes... I hope that Corocoro reveals is before next Saturday!

itll proly be between monday and wednesday. CoroCoro usually leaks between the 10th-15th of the month.

Arolu July 11th, 2010 1:58 AM

I don't think it's related to Mamepato as it would seem odd... I think it might be some sort of new bird legendary or just a seperate bird Pokemon.

Mana July 11th, 2010 3:36 AM

By the way guys, Fearow (and no other Normal/Flying type) are not likely to become Dark/Flying or anything else /Flying because in the history of Pokémon only TWO others have changed their primary types. Azurill and Eevee, both single types as well.

Looks to me that this one could go either way, either the 3rd stage of our little pigeon or another Isshu bird :)
