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