I'm sure you have heard the news about this new manga coming to CoroCoro. A Sun & Moon manga featuring a young boy named Akira going around the islands of Alola with his Rockruff. It is drawn by Tenya Yabuno, who also worked on Digimon (which is why our character looks the way he does). Announced like a month or two ago, I'm surprised no one has made a thread to this yet.
This front promo on the Japanese website shows our cast, which includes our Sun & Moon Girl (slightly altered from the game design) and Professor Kukui. There are more preview scans on the Japanese webpage here.
Now that's all fine and dandy but recently, a leaked scan of one of the manga pages has been floating around the Internet in the past few days. Whether or not it's authentic remains unknown, but the leaked page is consistent with the art design of this manga. And I say this because it features a surprising cameo of someone you wouldn't expect to see...
Hello there, Satoshi and Pikachu of XY&Z. And yes, it's Ash. Particularly Ash in his XY&Z design rather than his Sun and Moon design. I have no idea what's he's doing here or why he has his XY outfit.
