New Pokemon completely revealed

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 12 Comments

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

San Mateo, Calif. – Feb. 9, 2010 – Gamers are getting ready to slide their way to freedom this March as Rooms: The Main Building for Nintendo DS™ and Wii™ has gone gold. Published by Hudson Entertainment, the North and South American subsidiary of HUDSON SOFT, Rooms: The Main Building will challenge the minds of Wii and DS players on March 23, 2010 when they are asked to solve sliding puzzles in order to escape a series of surreal mansions. Players use various items and the guidance of their host, Mr. Book, to navigate the mystical new world.

Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Future Soldier coming to Wii and DS

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 0 comments

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.
