Hiyappu, Baoppu & Yanappu Discussion (new water/fire type monkey)
 
The broccoli Pokémon was confirmed today on Pokémon Sunday.
http://i959.photobucket.com/albums/ae76/ColonelCrawfish/BROCCOLAPE.jpg
Yanappu
Grass Monkey Pokémon
Type: Grass
Ability: Gluttony
Height: 0.6 m
Weight: 10.5 kg
New Move: Acrobat


Thanks to Pokéjungle for the name, the image and the information.

Zeturic August 21st, 2010 3:32 PM

Unsurprising that it was real, honestly.

In any case, it reminds me of Ambipom. That's a really good thing; I actually like it. I typically hate all Grass-types.

Yeah?
It is pretty cool actually.

Aether★ August 21st, 2010 3:38 PM

It looks like Aipom for me, alright. I hate Aipom so automatically I won't like it. I'll change my mind if it would have an acceptable evolution.

MarillBubbles August 21st, 2010 3:41 PM

Yeah reminds me of Aipom, but I think I like it better than Aipom. It's hilarious to look at, but cute at the same time.

Zelda August 21st, 2010 3:41 PM

Also known as the Grass Monkey Pokémon. It has the ability Gluttony with one of its move being Acrobat; and is a grass type pokémon. In some ways it reminds me very much of Aipom (like a lot of the posters before me are saying); the face, artwork, and a few other features in its design. Comparing it to the earlier image of the figurine we saw it as, I can definitely say I like it a lot more than I thought I would. It's funny to see it look like a broccoli though. XD;

Yes! I was hoping it would turn out real!
I like it,I'm definintly getting one.

coolnick37 August 21st, 2010 3:46 PM

I knew it looked too original to be a fake, although i dont find it that much special

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 21st, 2010 3:46 PM

I expected as much, I like Aipom better though :P

o0PinkSquid0o August 21st, 2010 3:53 PM

I think he's pretty cute!!
zomg I am getting really excited for pokemon black and white, it comes out really soon in jap right?

Olliee August 21st, 2010 3:56 PM

That thing is a little heartbreaker. :')

Foodin August 21st, 2010 4:15 PM

Hmm, I thought it'd be a fake, but I've been wrong before. Too bad this isn't the Grass-type starter for this upcoming gen. instead of yet another reptile.

MistahDude August 21st, 2010 4:19 PM

I could state my opinion but its pretty obvious based on my signature of what I think of this new monkey.

I hope it evolves but not in the way Aipom does.

Dominus Temporis August 21st, 2010 4:27 PM

I was watching the stream of the episode for a while, but turned it off before this. Figures. Ahhh, whatever...

I used an Aipom/Ambipom in SoulSilver, and I've learned to like the monkey, so Yanappu's resemblance doesn't bother me much. But holy cow, actual hands. That's new. It reminds me a little of a lemur, too, for some reason. I like the sound of the new ability Acrobat, and I was looking forward to seeing if this guy was real or not. I hope it evolves, since if it does it has a spot on my Black team for sure.

Oh, and hey, anybody remember the fake art from a couple weeks back? I'm thankful it turned out to be like this instead...

Kirbychu August 21st, 2010 4:30 PM

Another ugly piece of garbage to add to the collection. I expect Ash to get this one, since he always gets a grass-type and seems rather fond of primates.

Planetes. August 21st, 2010 4:36 PM

yes! I love that little guy!

King Gumball August 21st, 2010 4:38 PM

An Aipom replacement. It looks really funny, I like it's head. Wonder what its evo will look like. I like its move Acrobat too, good for triple battles.

A while ago there's a figure of that Pokemon, but that Pokemon wasn't confirmed back then: http://pokebeach.com/2010/07/toys-reveal-a-new-pokemon. Glad though that Pokemon is finally confirmed, though.

I actually thought Yanappu would be a bit chubbier than it is now due to the toy. Also, it's contradicting its Gluttony ability. XD; Looks cute, though.

Also it's ability reminds me of Gluttony of FMA, and bah I have Roy as my theme, crazy. D:

Zelda August 21st, 2010 5:12 PM

It's said that Acrobat in triple battles will allow Yanappu to hit a pokémon on the far side of it. Meaning, if Yanappu is in the middle it's battle move range is to hit the middle pokémon but with the move Acrobat, it will be able to hit a pokémon on the left or right side.

Im hoping he turns into a huge Gorilla.

Dillon_68 August 21st, 2010 5:24 PM

I want it!! Finally, a Pokemon that I like instantly from this Gen.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 21st, 2010 5:31 PM

I hope it evolves into a big tree monkey...

dragon0fangz August 21st, 2010 6:17 PM

not liking it. reminds me of broccoli. *shudders*

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 21st, 2010 6:22 PM

You know the broccoli part of it could actually be a mini tree...trees look like broccoli when you take away the detail of the leaf, etc...

Yeah, its based on a tree, not broccoli. Im guessing an evolved form would have a bigger tree on its head or body, maybe like a combined torterra/slaking

darknesz555 August 21st, 2010 6:30 PM

lol i thought it looked like broccoli too xD
i wonder how many evolutions it'll have

I was thinking the same, it would be a giant Monkey with a tree that might shift to the back of it's body...

Weavile05 August 21st, 2010 6:35 PM

Wow, I'm already planning out my White team now.
The Water Starter (Pokabu, Right?)
Hihidaruma
Yanappu (or it's evo)
Zoroark
Wargle
Zekrom.

johnny18 August 21st, 2010 6:38 PM

cool monkey and much better than aipom
Looking forward to pokemon black and white

Sprinklers August 21st, 2010 6:56 PM

Yanappu?
 
Cool! Acrobat looked like a pretty cool move too. I wonder if that move will have any novel effect outside of triple battles. Otherwise, it seems kind of situational. Seeing as how it looks like a quick move, I'm hoping priority.

Was there any confirmation on what type the move was?

I think its actually meant for it its placed on the right or left. The Middle can hit all five of the other Pokemon with their attacks. The right Pokemon can onlu hit the opposing (Left) Pokemon and the two in the Middle while the Left Pokemon can hit the Opposing (Right) Pokemon and the two in the middle. Acrobat extends the range to the Left Pokemon on yourside can hit the (Left) Pokemon on your opponent's side.

**I put (left) and (Right) because if you were the other trainer and I was using the Broccoli Monkey then the Pokemon in () would be from your point of view.**

Theres no confirmation of such, but seeing as it was super effective against Tsutaja, I'm guessing that it will be a Flying type move, much like Bounce.

It most likely is, as acrobats jump and fly around in the air :)

King Gumball August 21st, 2010 7:43 PM

Yes I think it is a flying type move too. I was examining the broccoli monkey and it kinda looks starter quality, maybe it ju8st reminds me of Chimchar though. I really can't wait to see it's evo! It looks so cool as it is. (even though I hate broccoli)

Hamilton August 21st, 2010 7:43 PM

i think kids are gonna love this pokemon (sarcasm)
i don't mind it, i just wish they had a monkey pokemon that actually made it into my top 10 (monkeys are my favorite animal)
that, or a good cat pokemon

Zelda August 21st, 2010 8:10 PM

I can see Yanappu being like Torterra with the tree/broccoli piece sitting on its head. Perhaps, it would be as small as Turtwig being a monkey and all, have a second evolution form as a medium size ape and the last be a gorilla with a large tree. I couldn't imagine it but who knows what Game Freak would come up with. XD;

Yeah, like a monkey with leaves or bushes on it somewhere. i bet since its an Aipomish-looking monkey, it wont be big and bulky like slaking though

Kenshin5 August 21st, 2010 8:30 PM

I like the grass monkey thus far. Hopefully it actually is Dento's pokemon so we can have a Grass Gym leader at the beginning of the game instead of the Rock Leader(G/S/C excluded).

I see it as a midsize monkey.

Bamboo Basara August 21st, 2010 9:08 PM

Yes! This gen is amazing me with each new Pokemon. :)
Looks like an Aipom counterpart, which isn't surprising since many Pokemon in this gen seem to be distant relatives of other Pokes.

My guess is we'll be seeing these guys in trees if Headbutt makes a return.

Haza August 21st, 2010 9:23 PM

I love this design... more so than the fake one we got a few weeks ago. I think it's obvious that this is going to belong to Dento in the anime. It's design has a few cooking references, and he is a waiter. He is quite affiliated with the color green, and the leaked figure were this one and Kibago, who belongs to Iris. I look forward to seeing this in every episode.

Dillon_68 August 21st, 2010 9:37 PM

His name has Nappa in it, like the DBZ character. It means cabbage, so I dub thee...Monkage, or Cankey, or Cabian, or Cabape.

beauty. proletariat August 21st, 2010 10:51 PM

omigosh. elemental aipoms :>

running outta ideas XD

Ho-Oh August 21st, 2010 11:01 PM

Oh I can see it getting haters easily. :(

It's nice that it's actually been confirmed after all this while. I sort of like it, yet I sort of don't. I dunno, there is something about its body - maybe it needs to be wider? I guess I can blame the fake scans for that. >____>; Either way, colouring is really good, better than expected.

I think so too, if so then both the toys were anime toys :P

Haza August 22nd, 2010 12:15 AM

The doll made it hard to imagine. The fake art from the fake corocoro scan sucks compared to the real thing. I love Bronkey even more now.

GrifSpark August 22nd, 2010 12:20 AM

It looks so cute! I wonder if will gain an extra type, I hope so.

Maybe a Grass/Steel or something?

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 22nd, 2010 12:33 AM

I'm thinking Grass/fight, we haven't had one since gen 3...

Haza August 22nd, 2010 12:44 AM

Now all we need is a sea monkey, and not a shrimp one but a water-type monkey Pokemon!

Darkfire_Danny August 22nd, 2010 1:40 AM

Hehe it's pretty awesome :D . Some off the new Gen 5 Pokémon are actually hideous like that weird Psychic blob thing, but this monkey, the Fire pig, and Wargle are the ones that stand out as genuinly cool designs :D .

Oh and the Legendary Dragons too, they're cool :) .

Olliee August 22nd, 2010 2:34 AM

I think Grass/Fight would be too predictable :(

Andrut August 22nd, 2010 2:47 AM

Waah! It has no puplis O_o
I don't think i'll catch it,it looks annoying,like Chillarmy.
I would like them to finally show us artworks of Tabunne,Basurao,Hatooboo and Darumakka. D:<

Kanto_Johto August 22nd, 2010 3:25 AM

I love how everyone is saying: "Oh boy! I wonder what it evolves into!"

Am I the only one with a bad feeling that this Pokemon might not evolve? I mean, it looks like a basic Pokemon with an evolution line, but then so did Aipom in Gen II.

Shermin August 22nd, 2010 3:39 AM

dont we have enough monkey pokemon. do we really need another??

Eagledelt August 22nd, 2010 3:41 AM

To be honest, I like the Grass Pokemon from this generation xD

First Tsutaja and now this one. If the others get better with evolutions, then I think it'll be a nice generation in terms of designs :D

JackGamer August 22nd, 2010 4:10 AM

It kinda looks like Aipom. I don't like Aipom, though xD But I really like this Pokemon, it looks cool.

like which? i can only think of aipom and chimchar atm, but chimchar is a chimp.
great to see another awesome grass type. it would be cool as somebody said before that it has a fighting type evolution, like breloom. it would be awesome to have a fighting mushroom and brocolli!

you forgot about mankey and primeape!

aipom
chimchar
monferno
internape
ambipom

Primeape and Chimchar are Apes, not monkeys.

Ho-Oh August 22nd, 2010 5:25 AM

...I don't think it matters whether they're apes or monkeys.

However, the increase of monkeys isn't something I necessarily like. I'd rather if there were more of other creatures but you win some and lose some - what's important is that this new monkey is actually more appealing in colour than the other ones which just looked awkward (besides Mankey etc).

Anyway, I love the thing to bits! I was crazy over 'Burokko' and very sad that it was fake but, seeing this has brung my hopes up. Pokebeach made an interesting guess that Dento might own one as he could be a Grass Type Trainer and is a waiter (notice oven glove hands on Yamanappa :D).

I will definetly try to get this Pokemon on my team when I get Pokemon White!

I gotta agree here. I don't think it's gonna evolve personally.
But I don't deny the possibility.. it would definitely be interesting if it did evolve.. then again I think 90% of Isshu at this point doesn't evolve from the way they look.. I don't think it looks like broccoli on his head.. just like a pre-mature tree. If it does evolve, I too think it'll end up somewhat how Turtwig's evolution line did, due to that little tree on his head.

I never was a fan of chimp/monkey Pokemon until Chimchar, but I really like this little guy. <3

Oh and Chimchar is a chimp until Monferno. XD
What classifies a chimpanzee is the lack of a tail along with other distincitive features.


bobman1234 August 22nd, 2010 10:05 AM

They are both small monkeys. Other than that I don't really see any similarities. They both have different ears, mouth, eyes, feet, tails and hands.

The ears look a little similar to me, but other than a general body shape they're really not very much alike, I agree. Besides, if and when Yanappu evolves, I think they'd probably make them much more unique. There's really only so much you can do in terms of "cartoonized tiny monkey." It seems to me that they've been making an effort to evolve weaker basic Pokemon in recent gens, so I see no reason why Yanappu shouldn't.

Sammuthegreat August 22nd, 2010 12:43 PM

I really hope Brocco-monkey evolves into a big, thickset ape. I don't want another Infernape- or Ambipom-alike skinny monkey - I want a gorilla. And not a fat one like Slaking either. A big, hardcore gorilla.

Astinus August 22nd, 2010 12:45 PM

I've already done my squeeing elsewhere.

But I still love this thing. At least now I don't have to research it if it was part of another media. Since it's a Pokemon, I can easily follow it.

I'm honestly thinking that this thing is going to be my favorite Pokemon of the Fifth Generation. It's a monkey with broccoli on its head and oven mitts for hands. Adorable!

And yes, I know that it's probably actually a tree, but Tree Monkey doesn't have the same ring to it as Broccoli Monkey, since "broccoli" is a hilarious word.

Precious Tears August 22nd, 2010 1:08 PM

The figure one looks ugly... I didn't think he would turn out into this sweet and adorable Pokemon! I'm gonna catch one, even if it's not strong; at least The Pokemon Musical Show will welcome it. ;) For some reason I think Dento or Aloe might have it(game or anime), well just a hunch...

Surmonter August 22nd, 2010 1:19 PM

I would just like to say one thing: (Spoiled to shield young eyes from huge douche-ness)

Spoiler:
Haha at all the people who thought Burroko was real after the creator claimed multiple times that it was completely fake and he just based it off the bandai figure released weeks before. HA. HA. HA.


People saying Burroko could still be real just made me so mad, so I had to do that.

Anyways..

I love monkey Pokemon, every single one. I hope this ends up becoming a strong Grass/Fighting Monkey/Ape Pokemon! <3

If you change the color of any Pokemon you will see similarities in the changed Pokemon to the Pokemon that have the same color, so doing that is not very fair. :|

Even when it's purple it still doesn't look like Aipom. You also have to keep in mind, they're both small monkeys. You're either going to get something like Aipom, or something like Mankey.

Not a Gorilla eh? Slaking is a reference to Gorillas being extremely powerful but also very docile and lazy.

Im hoping that it evolves into an Orangutan because we haven't had one of those yet.

If it turns out anything like Lanky Kong I will be very happy.

Maybe though I always wanted our first Orangutan to have a cooler looking line than this...

...but they're also ugly, so no thanks. :( but thats just me, though.

Most primates aren't exactly pretty. I for one like their bad looks. It makes me like them more.

Well I don't think they are Ugly but they could make it like Lanturn, as it was based on an Anglerfish but it's cute at the same time :)

An Orangutan would fit as a grass type fairly well. There are more than one kind of Orangutan. The ugly one most people think of is:

I am aware of that. Humans could also be considered ugly creatures.

Yeah Grass, Fighting, and Fire are the types that I think will most likely match the Orangutan, especially that one you have a picture of, it has that shaggy look like vines,or grass :)

Weaknesses:
x4 Flying
x2 Fire, Psychic, Ice, and Poison

Resistances:
1/2 Ground, Rock, Water, Grass, Electric, Dark

Really it's not a horrible trade. Combo the right abilities and attacks along with EV training and natural Stats and Natures, you can overcome a lot of type weaknesses. Breloom is a really BAMF that really does need to be copied at least once.

Right!

If it's going OU then I think Yanappu should get either better stats, or some exclusive strategy as cheap (or cheaper than) Spore :P

I'd personally just prefer a pure grass

This picture from Deviantart should help you:



Its fake but you get the idea.
