Update 2: We now have some details about the Pokemon, courtesy of Serebii (thanks Chris J!). The details have been added below.

Update: The scans have been confirmed and we’ve added additional images to this post (thanks Arty!)

Remember that Pokemon silhouette we showed you a few days ago? Well, apparently it has been completely revealed. The images below are said to have come from CoroCoro. However, while they do look pretty real, I’m just a little bit skeptical since the pictures were actually posted on 2ch first. We’ll keep you posted about the legitimacy of the scans.

As you can probably tell, the image on the left is the Pokemon teased on Pokemon Sunday while the image on the right is supposed to be the Pokemon before evolving.

– Pre-evolution form called Zorua/Zoroa, dark-type Pokemon, Evil Fox Pokemon, .7 m tall, 12.5 kg
– Evolution form is Zoroark/Zoroaaku, dark-type Pokemon, Monster Fox Pokemon, 1.6m tall, 81.1kg
– More info from CoroCoro coming next month, will reveal Zorua/Zoroark’s abilities
– 13th movie called Phantom Champion Zoroark

Sorry for the slowness and downtime on the site for the past half hour or so. But the good news is that it was definitely worth it! We’ve transferred everything to a new server, and you guys will probably be able to see the results right away. In fact, I’d say we’re more than five times faster now. We’ve also been pretty good with keeping the site up and not encountering any major issues the past few months, but I think things will be even better from here on out. I truly hope that we never have any extended, unplanned period of downtime ever again.

I think it’s pretty safe to say right now that the Big N has some important news to discuss. The first Nintendo-related tease we heard about was from Nintendo Dream, which involves the magazine unveiling a new game in a popular franchise this month. Then we heard about Nintendo holding a media event in Europe, followed by teasers from Nintendo Power and the Official Nintendo Magazine. Now IGN has confirmed that Nintendo of America will be holding their own media summit on February 24. We’ll find out what all of this is about in roughly two weeks.

Earlier today, Ubisoft revealed a new entry in the Ghost Recon franchise, subtitled Future Soldier. The announcement only confirmed a release for the 360, but Nintendo fans shouldn’t feel left out. On a conference call, Ubisoft shared the news that Future Solider is also in development for the Wii and DS. The company did not say how the Wii and DS games will differ from the other versions, although I’m sure we’ll find out more details in the coming months.
