Update 3: With more scans coming in, we’ve removed the rumor tag and are classifying this as official news.

Update 2: More details:

– MBlaziken has Speed Boost
– MLucario has Adaptability
– MMawile has Huge Power
– MAbsol has Magic Bounce
– MAmpharos is Electric/Dragon and has Mold Breaker
– Mawile is also re-typed Steel/Fairy
– Dedenne is an Antennae Pokemon, knows Pick-Up or Cheek Pouches
– Horubii is a Digging Pokemon, knows Pick-Up or Cheek Pouches
– Koruni: gym leader who holds the key to Mega Evolutions
– Torchic being distributed with Mega Stone allowing it to become Mega Blaziken, October 12-January 15th via WiFi

Update: Assuming this is the real deal, the new Mewtwo form is a part of the “Mega” category. Blaziken, Absol, Lucario, Ampharos, and Mawile have these forms as well.

Gogoat’s pre-evolution is said to be Meekuru. CoroCoro, supposedly, also reveals the electric/fairy-type Dedenne and the normal rabbit “Horubii”.

Apparent scans from the latest issue of CoroCoro have started to leak, showing “Mega” forms of existing Pokemon as well as a few more brand new creatures. Leaks have just started to take place, so stay tuned for details…

SEGA has partnered with Nintendo to put out three exclusive games on Nintendo platforms. Two have been revealed thus far: Sonic Lost World and Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games. There’s also one final mystery title in development.

SEGA’s European chief Jurgen Post spoke about the deal with MCV, stating:

We have Sonic: Lost World on Wii U and 3DS and then Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics later in the year too. Plus there is a third game we haven’t announced.

Historically Sonic games have always sold very well on Nintendo platforms, so it’s a good fit. And Nintendo and Sega have always worked together in a positive way – the first game Sonic debuted on after we stopped making hardware was a Nintendo platform.

Post later addressed the Wii U’s slow start. It’s a concern for sure, but Post hopes Sonic can help improve the situation:

On the Wii U’s Internet browser, visit this link. You’ll need to input your code – and that’s it. A video should then appear.

Multiple videos have already surfaced online, so it’s not just one that we’re dealing with. You can find the clips after the break.
