Is anyone sure this is 100% true/confirmed yet? Because I honestly hope not. I liked the genies as genies, not as birds. >__> I mean sure they don't look "that" terrible, but wow, dnw.

No they have not been confirmed.

Also Thundurus looks like a Dragon.

Tornadus seems to be the only bird. Landorus seems to be a turtle/tortoise and Thundurus has no wings.

Ir really hope this is all part of some cruel hoax. The kami trio look not right in these forms. It'll be interesting nonetheless.

Ohh right! Dunno, but Landorus also seems like a bird while Thundurus doesn't really. :(

[ unconfirmeddd ]

Tornadus, Thundurus and Landorus are exclusively captured in the 3DS game; Pokémon AR Searcher, and then sent to the Black 2 and White 2 games from there

That seems kinda... weird. First 3DS-exclusive forms? o_O Dunno seems unbelievable imo. BUT HEY they threw B2/W2 at us when we just expected a third game.

Well that adds to my list of "get used to these". Um if these are real, I hope they show full body shots of the three soon. I'd like to see how their full form looks, and I mean we only have this month left until the games hit Japan and they better hit us with a ton of news.

I wonder how we get these formes?

Well this is kind of a let down, White Kyurem & Black Kyurem that's ok but I think they're kind of pushing it with these. I liked them the way they originally were so I hope it's fake.

Wow, why so much negativity? D:

I looked at the Kami Trio and thought "omg wow that's awesome!" I thought they looked utterly stupid as genies... they didn't look like Pokemon at all, and that always bothered me. I know there isn't huge art to really do much judging at this stage, but I think they look far better in these forms than previously.

I hope these rumours are true!

I personally hate Tornadus' new forme, so ugly... Thundurus looks like a lizard and Landorus like a bear. I like that, actually. I actually think that the latter two will lose their Flying typing. then, they would make a starter-like weakness trio, but with Immunities instead of resistances. I also think their Base stats will differ and abilities will be changed.

I agree with all the new Kami Trio form haters.

They look so ugly... glad I don't have a 3DS.

Thundurus's claws remind me of Beartics, and his head looks like a dragons- I like it. Tornadus doesn't look so hot, in this picture, in my opinion- below the neck, the design looks awful.

I didn't think there could be uglier Pokemon. How did they top that? They look absolutely atrocious. Unless I'm missing some kind of link between genies and birds/dragons/wtf ever landorus is supposed to be, then it just makes NO sense. Rotom formes? Good! Giratina formes? Good! Shaymin formes? Good! Genie formes? ...WHY?!

Even though I never actually liked this particular trio, I did like the genie concept. However, these new forms [if they are in fact legit], seem so unnecessary and the designs to say the least aren't that great - which is putting it kindly. To be honest, they don't even look like they go together anymore except for being symbolized by an animal of what they represent. Tornadus looks like a bird (Air), Landorus a turtle (Land), and Thunderus I'm guessing is a lizard or dragon of some sort or something closely related to representing thunder.

As far as the genies "not looking like Pokémon" that's very debatable as you can say that for a lot of the Gen V Pokémon, as well as a few from Gen IV (ie. Rotom's different appliances forms).

I really hope GameFreak doesn't overdo the different forms for B2/W2, as it's beginning to look like they might. :\

At first glance, I don't like them, though I never liked the Kami trio in the first place, they looked too similar, maybe this is Game Freak's way of making them different from one another. I need to see this confirmed and see official art before passing judgement on them.

The more I look at the new formes of the trio, the more I think "nope, this can't be right, and yet here they are". I guess I'll have to deal with this fact - that they have just gotten new formes. At least it won't look too similar to each other this time around. Guess I'm going to have to agree with Shiny Celebi on this one.

I'm leaning towards this scan being a hoax. I mean, the Kami trio just doesn't look like when they look like birds. Even though they're Flying-typed, they don't have to look like birds because they're in constant flight.

I don't particularly care about the new Kami trio - never cared for them when they were 'genies' and still don't care for them now that they're apparently 'birds' - but I love that Game Freak are thinking outside the box when it comes to new versions of Pokemon! While this news hasn't endeared me more to the Kami trio, it certainly hasn't diminished what little love there was, so I guess this is OK in my book! :D

I can't really judge from just one look, maybe if we get a better image my opinion will change.
