The “new” Pokemon is just Pichu

undefined

The official Pokemon website has now been updated and we have the latest details on the supposed “new” Pokemon. Remember that image of Pichu in CoroCoro magazine? We figured that would be the hidden Pokemon in the 12th movie trailer. The website now confirms that and says this “Notched-Ear Pichu”, as the site refers to it, is a female. I have no idea why they decided to hide it in the trailer though.

This “Notched-Ear Pichu” is supposed to save the world in the 12th movie, which is titled “To the Conquering of Space-Time” (and has now been confirmed by the website). The Pichu is also said to enjoy the Grepa Berry. The movie is said to conclude the Diamond and Pearl movie trilogy (We had The Rise of Darkrai, Giratina and the Sky Warrior, and now this one) and will explain by Dialga and Palkia are fighting each other, as well as their fight with Giratina.

So will we see a 5th generation Pokemon in this movie or not? They’re supposed to reveal a new Pokemon at Japan’s World Hobby Fair in late January, but I get the feeling that revelation will just be Arceus. He hasn’t been officially announced yet, and he’s clearly the main Pokemon in the movie, so it’s likely that Arceus will be revealed in late January. Pokemon fans, I wouldn’t get your hopes up at this point for a 5th generation Pokemon. But hey, more details on Arceus is always good. The 12th movie hits Japan on July 18th, 2009.

    I think we’re still waiting for the new Pokemon to show up. It’s definitely not Pichu though, so false info here.

    And to the spam replies above, I’ll just answer Barbie. \:D/
