More scrapped Pokemon designs revealed
Posted on 4 weeks ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments | 0 Likes
Earlier this year, we got a look at many scrapped Pokemon designs after a 1997 Pokemon Gold demo leaked online. Several months later, we have even more designs that were never used.
Japanese TV channel NHK recently aired a program that showed off a number of Pokemon, including ones that have never appeared in-game. We can see the likes of Lapras and Blastoise, a very-different Scyther, and even the original concept for Gengar and Rhyhorn that fight in the opening credits of Pokemon Red, Blue and Yellow.
Below are the new images:

Pokemon the Movie: Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution premiering July 12th, 2019 in Japan
Posted on 1 month ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments | 0 Likes
A slight update on the Pokemon movie front: Pokemon the Movie: Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution’s opening day in Japanese theaters will be July 12th, 2019. Unfortunately, that’s pretty much all the information we have on the movie right now. Given its title, we can infer that Mewtwo will have a starrring role, but so far we have no official synopsis and no trailer yet.
There’s also no word yet on the movie’s international release. The past couple of Pokemon movies got a limited theatrical run in some countries before being released on home media and streaming services.

The Pokemon Company hiring for what could be a new mobile game
Posted on 1 month ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News | 0 comments | 0 Likes
The Pokemon Company has posted a job listing for what looks to be a new mobile title. Game Informer spotted the page on LinkedIn, which specifically mentions mobile/gaming design as a desired trait from applicants.
Another interesting tidbit is that The Pokemon Company is seeking someone who has experience in Unity. Pokemon Trading Card Game, currently only available on tablets, is the only Pokemon title to make use of that engine. Could The Pokemon Company be pursuing a port to phones or something else entirely?

Eevee-themed Tamagotchi confirmed for Japanese release
Posted on 1 month ago by Devin(@Sonicb00m111) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments | 0 Likes
After having its existence leaked earlier this month, it has been confirmed that a Pokemon-Tamagotchi collaboration is happening in the form of special Eevee-themed devices in Japan.
According to Serebii, consumers will be able to purchase this new form of Tamagotchi Nano as of January 26th. Players will raise and take care of Eevee on the device, eventually evolving it into one of its various 8 evolutions, based on the way the Pokemon is treated. On top of this, some Eevee may even come in Team Rocket gear, or as a Ditto clone of Eevee itself.
