Pokemon Black & White: More New Pokemon


Here we go again. Maybe I should have just waited for the next CoroCoro to be leaked... but I wasn't expecting it this soon... ehh...

Anyway, while the title is 'More New Pokemon', a fair few of them are just Pokemon that were previously announced that have now been given names or now have faces that we can actually see.

Koromori

This being an example of the latter. Koromori's back sprite was all we had to go on until recently, seeing as it was given away in some graphically terrible (in terms of seeing anything) beta art and we only got the back sprite in a release of screenshots about a week or two before the release of the above picture from CoroCoro.

It kind of looks a little goofy, to be honest... though thankfully it doesn't look to be just a freaking Zubat-like Pokemon... hopefully, in terms of rarity, I hope it isn't as common in caves and such, and I hope they ditch the damn Zubat in caves, because I'm sick of seeing them in every title...!
It carries the interesting typing of Psychic/Flying, apparently. It'll be interesting to see how it stacks up alongside the others of the same typing-- those only being Lugia and Natu/Xatu, I believe.

Oh boy, I bet this thing will be the staple starting Normal-type Pokemon... I honestly don't like it. However, I dislike it less than the piece of trash we got in Generation IV. I have no more to say about this... thing. Though I will say its a nice change to see a chipmunk Pokemon.

Musharna

Munna's evolution, it would seem. To be fairly honest, there's not a great deal of difference in them. Other than Musharna making it seemingly apparent that the Pokemon is designed around tapirs or a similar shaped animal. I'm a little curious about the supposed connection this Pokemon has with the save data upload to Nintendo's servers, as was mentioned on Serebii and their horrible announcement editing, but then it makes me wonder if this Pokemon too will be a Pokemon that falls to the same fate as Zorua and Zoroark, where it will only be released via a Nintendo-controlled event, allowing you to unlock the Pokemon...

I'll be losing faith if they do... despite already having done so with the whole Zorua/Zoroark thing... xD;

Rankurusu

Finally given a name, this Pokemon was one I was a little dubious about in the previous entry where I talked about the new Pokemon released via screen shots and such. The design is weird, to me... people have been calling it a human-like Pokemon, and such... but I don't really see the 'humanoid' aspect of it, other than it seemingly being a Pokemon walking on two legs.

Gochiruzeru
Photobucket

Gochiruzeru has a rather curious design. I pinned it as a possible relation to Carnivine or something in the other entry, but I'm kind of not really sure about that, now... but I am semi-sticking to it being an evolution of that stupid green thing that reminded me of Chip from Sonic Unleashed. Of which I'll probably be wrong, lol...

Kibago
Photobucket

Mentioned before, Kibago was named after the image I posted before, I think... gah, my terrible memory... anyway, I'm going to hold onto the point that I feel this will be the basic stage of this Generations overall base 600 Pokemon. It has the kind of design that is similar to at least the most recent three (Larvitar, Bagon and Gible), so it kind of seems logical to pin it as that. Could it possibly be a Dragon/Rock-type Pokemon? Who knows... other than those working on the games... lol

Wargle/Wooguru
Photobucket

Easily my favourite Pokemon of the recently included. PokeBeach calls it Wargle, while Serebii calls it Wooguru, so I've no idea, at this point, what its actual name is, but it seems my previous entry on the silhouette was right; it was indeed a Pokemon in the form of an eagle.

Something a friend mentioned was it seemed to have a South American style to it, but I can't 100% remember what was actually mentioned in that conversation, but it being a eagle, regardless of wherever else eagles appear in the world, has given me another ray of speculative hope that the Region of Isshu is indeed western-based.

The unfortunate thing is, the released shots of the CoroCoro magazine don't reveal the entirety of the Pokemon, which is a great shame, but hey, it'll come... and I'll be looking forward to it.

RenegadeFox' Gen. V Top Pokemon
So far...

Chiramii!
- I love the design of this little guy. It gave me a ray of hope that the starting Normal-type was going to be awesome, for a change.

Meguroko!
- A desert Crocodile with an ability that makes revenge kills all the more sinister? Hella yes! I'm hoping this Pokemon evolves, because I'm sure it'll have a really awesomely designed evolution.

Denchura!
- Its about time we got another spider-like Pokemon in there. Though we currently don't know what it looks like from the front, I'd venture to guess it has a similar look to Ariados, maybe?

Wargle/Wooguru!
- I feel this is more like the company that brought us Pokemon. If they bring us more Pokemon awesomely designed like this one, I think Generation V will certainly be better!

Until next time, people...
