The first image of the cover of CoroCoro has been released through a trailer. This cover includes the first silhouette of a brand new Pokémon. This Pokémon is called Magiana (マギアナ).
The new game is infact Pokemon Z, and it’s a continuation of Pokemon X/Y but events at the beginning of the game(in a cinematic) make you begin in a new region that becomes effected by some event between Zygarde/Yveltal/Xerneas.
Imagine a Generation 6.5 of sorts Pokemon Z game that adds 50 more species or so to flesh out the low 72 count that we got in X/Y. And the setting would be in a region adjacent to Kalos that’s hinted to in X/Y via the Strange Souvenir and the train tracks by Terminus Cave.
… i’d be totally down for that.
EDIT: That new siloette looks very flowery and leads me to think it has something to do with AZ’s Floette. Has a M Gardevoir vibe to it too.
As much as I am quick to jump to this argument personally myself, I am constantly reminded of the lack of creativity that went into Pokemon like Muk and Exeggutor from my personal opinion.
Don’t forget voltorb and electrode, I’m not saying the first few gens are perfect but they at least have a mix of good and bad where most of them sit on the good side in my opinion. The newer gens I like literally less than 10 from each and I think as a ratio that’s poor!
I like the design of Magiana! I reckon it looks cool! I dont think they ever lost their creativity, you guys are just getting older and as you get older your views change. Imagine a primary school kid looking at all the Pokemon! they dont see design they see cool magical monsters that battle!
