An anonymous poster on 2ch claims to have seen the October issue of CoroCoro, a Japanese comic magazine, and says that the latest issue shows Alolan Ekans and Arbok. They’ve given a few details about it and here are the translations:
I also adding in other rumors from 2ch, The Alolan Electabuzz & Magmar rumor was preceded by a typo so I think I consider this much shakier than the above Arbok rumor. It would also leave questions regarding their evolutions as well.
- Alolan Ekans & Arbok are Fighting-type
- Their abilities are Fighter Skin, which makes Normal-type moves Fighting and increases their power by 30% (ala Pixilate, etc), and Shed Skin
- Alolan Arbok is light brown and bigger in size than its normal counterpart, but lacks any pattern on its body
- It is a Pokémon Sun exclusive and the CoroCoro issue also reveals that Alolan Sandslash is a Moon exclusive
All of this info did I get from PJ and also take this info with a grain of salt, is for a moment a rumor!
- Alolan Electabuzz revealed, new form looks similar to the pudgy Shinto god Ebisu
- Brought electricity to Alola and is seen as a guardian-type figure
- Electric/Fairy-type
- Has the abilities Friend Guard/Healer
- Alolan Magmar
- It walks on all fours and is covered in vines; covered itself in vegetation as a way to survive in the jungles of Alola
- Fire/Grass-type
- New ability that reduces the effectiveness of its opponents attack when it switches to a teammate in battle (teammate will take less damage when it switches in)
Thanks for posting it here! ^^ I doubt that GF would give an ability like Fighter Skin to Arbok though because it seems really overpowered (Shed Skin + 30% boost to its attacks is pretty good if we do not consider the Pokemon that gets it (not trying to put the Ekans line down but I hope you get what I mean!) ) I guess we'll just wait and see. And why isn't it getting scanned yet? The wait is killing me T^T
You got one thing wrong about Arbok, Fighter Skin isn't Shed Skin + 30% boost, he said that it could have Fighter Skin as an ability OR Shed Skin.
Because they were probably just skimming it don't know why they didn't take a picture of what they found at least they promise to show images the next day unless it will leak early before they do.If they've seen the magazine, why did they not take pics and upload them like literally everybody else that posts CoroCoro leaks?
I'm calling it a maybe.

"Fighter Skin" sounds so fake.
Well in fairness, Refrigerate is Freeze Skin, Aerilate is Sky Skin and Pixilate is Fairy Skin in the Japanese games. So it's just following that naming convention since it's from a Japanese-based "leak". If it were true, it's likely it would have been changed to an -ate ability for us.
Same imagine it actually on all fours!If Magmar was our first Fire/Grass type I think I'd cry.
Fine by me but Joe's tweet this morning sums it up nicely.Can we avoid trashtalking other sites when giving our opinions. If you don't like the other sites or trust what it posts then fair enough, but it doesn't really seem necessary to call it "garbage site" and other stuff.
Punchate confirmed.Well in fairness, Refrigerate is Freeze Skin, Aerilate is Sky Skin and Pixilate is Fairy Skin in the Japanese games.

Aaaanyway back on topic I can see a Arbok working for fighting maybe thicker skin and using its tail to shatter boulders reminds me of the snake girl in Kung Fu Panda.
