The first shot of Magiana – a brand new Pokemon – has emerged. Get a look at it above.

Magiana is classified as a Man-Made Pokemon. It has a metallic body, with text stating that it was ‘made by human hands’. The Pokemon was created over 500 years ago. No word on its type. Volcanion is chasing Magiana – only it knows Magiana’s secret.

Picross 3D 2 came to Japan last October. There hasn’t been any news about the amiibo-supported puzzle game heading west, but a classification discovered by Nintendo Everything reveals plans for localization.

The USK, Germany’s ratings board, has added in a listing for “Picross 3D: Round 2”. Although it submitted towards the end of last year, the listing was only made public recently.

Nintendo has yet to officially announce Picross 3D: Round 2 for Europe. However, the listing suggests that news should be on the way soon. It’s also unclear if Nintendo has any plans for the game in North America.
