A scan of the latest CoroCoro magazine shows that they will be distributing a Charizard to Pokemon Sun and Moon next month. It will be done through a serial code on March 15, but there is no information on if this will be region-based or if anything will be unique about the Charizard. Charizard was picked due to winning a recent poll through the magazine.
The first Grand Hero Battle is live in Fire Emblem Heroes, and it pits players against the Wyvern General Narcian (from Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade). The challenge will end on February 14 at 1:59 AM (EST). The battle is challenging on both Normal and Hard difficulty levels. The Normal version is Lv. 25 and requires 10 Stamina, while the Hard is Lv. 35 and requires 15 Stamina. Furthermore, you must have all four of your units alive in the end, and you may not use Light’s Blessing. A few screenshots of the event are below:

New Skylanders titles have been produced annually since 2011. This year, Activision is finally breaking that tradition. The company confirmed that there will not be a new game on consoles in 2017.
Activision isn’t abandoning its plans for Skylanders overall. New content is planned for Skylanders Imaginators (including a Switch version), and a mobile game is in the works. We also know that the Netflix animated show has been renewed for a third season, and we’ll be seeing that in 2018.
Game Informer has shared a series of brand new Zelda: Breath of the Wild screenshots from its cover story this month. Since one of the images shows one of the game’s bosses, we’ve posted the gallery after the break.
Nintendo finally brought Mario vs. Donkey Kong to the North American Wii U Virtual Console today. Watch some footage below.
