Well, Cheren certainly is the leader of the evil organization right? Right right? That leaves N or Makomo! And her long hair makes me believe that she's no mere lab assistant...

Re: CoroCoro Discussion Thread (Current Issue: August 2010)

you know, you may be onto something. at first, i thought N was the evil leader, but he could be the champion....or both...

N is neither the evil team leader nor the Champion... because he's trying to become the Champion. Remember a few weeks ago, when was of his quotes was translated as "I will be the Champion" or something?

Oh, and in other news, this essentially confirms Plasma will be the name of the evil team. N's name was revealed alongside triple battles and the professor's name in a rumor, in addition with Team Plasma.

It was "I will be better than champion."

I don't think N is like Gary/Paul...

Apparently the text next to him says "Pokemon are FRIENDS".

So...

Who else used to talk about beating the Pokemon League? Blue, who was the Champion in RBYFRLG.

He became the Champion. He didn't start out as the Champion. And he also wasn't the leader of an evil team.

He became the Champion, yes, but since the only Champion you can fight in RBYFRLG is Blue, he is the champion of the those games. Similarly, N can be a Champion, while aspiring to be one in the games' plot. It doesn't matter if he's the leader of an evil team (which isn't confirmed), Giovanni was the leader of an evil team and was a Gym Leader.

In fact, one of my ideas for this gen was that the main bad guy is also the champion.

Hey, isn't there also some little pamphlet in this issue about the game's beginning? Wonder if we'll see a few more early Pokemon since we've yet to see the early bug.

I don't quite remember N's name being amoung those other rumors... and even so, the evil Team's name isn't confirmed yet. There still might be some info regarding them that we haven't seen yet in this issue (last I heard, they're still digging up stuff from the leaks right now). That, or we could be getting the evil Team info in next month's issue.

Hmm... Cheren seems to bear an uncanny resemblance to Makomo. Same colored hair, seemingly same colored eyes, and they both happen to be wearing glasses. Maybe Makomo is Cheren's mother, and not ours? Which kinda makes sense, because if Makomo is supposed to be our Mother, I imagine they would have said so already... but instead they list her as "a friend of Professor Araragi" and nothing else.

Mystery N is... well... let's just put it this way. I imagine there's plenty of Rule 34 fanart of him floating around by now.:sweatlol:

It's kinda cool the "childhood friend" is a girl this time. Last Generation, we had Barry (ironically, they're both blonde). She doesn't really strike me as the type that would compete in Gyms and be one of your rivals, but we'll have to see. What would be really interesting is if Cheren, Blonde Girl, and Mystery N were all rivals of yours.

I like the designs of the other new Pokemon as well. Musharna almost looks like an anteater that's rolled up into a little ball.

Wooguru is freaking epic! Hopefully it gets some very good moves like Brave bird (Drill peck would be alright)

Aren't there supposed to be other scans? I wonder how many pages are left.

If I were to think of who Cheren might be related to, I would say it might be Makoto. They have have uncanny resemblances with each other, one of 'em being their hair the same color.

Speaking of relations... Mystery N's hair almost has the same shade of green as Eyepatch from the earlier trailer. That'd be kinda sweet if Mystery N was Eyepatch's son.

Re: CoroCoro Discussion Thread (Current Issue: August 2010)

Hmm, so I guess the people at Bulbapedia's gotten wind of the leaks, too? (Didn't see them on the front page) but I'm not surprised :p.

Anyways, I'm liking how much Pokemon are being revealed. The ValorEagle Pokemon sounds awesome and it's move sounds cool, too. Free Fall sounded like ReversedFly + Seismic Toss, I wonder if there'll be any moves that allow the Pokemon to attack while being held by the Pokemon? I'm expecting to see different type variations on this new kind of move.

Now, that's one of the highlights that stuck out to me. The other one that got me the MOST anxious was the exclusivity of 'Black City' and 'White Forest'. Although I've thought about this concept before, I didn't think it would actually be implemented. Good going GameFreak, now I actually have to decide between the versions. Hopefully Black City will be in White, as I'm getting White for Zekrom.

Those were the two most important points in the leaks, but the other stuff surprised me, too. I guess the Munna -> Drowzee -> Hypno rumor can be put to rest (if it wasn't already apparent). Another surprising fact was how spot-on some of the speculations have been (Gochiruzeru (ゴチルゼル) being based on a cell).

Well, that's about it. Another great CoroCoro issue, keep it up GameFreak!

i'm hoping for the same with black city/white forest too. i was going to get whilte for zekrom, but black city looks really cool....

maybe, like the legendaries, the places will be opposite (black city in white, white forest in black) and that's actually where you catch the legendaries
