The first images from CoroCoro have leaked and have revealed that next month will provide a huge scoop on Pokémon Sun & Moon. It has text saying that you can't see the Pokémon in the box art yet. We'll bring more as it comes
Edit @ 11:37: In the movie section of CoroCoro, it has confirmed that the Mythical Pokémon, Magearna, is to be a Steel/Fairy-type Pokémon
In addition to this, a new arcade game has been announced, seemingly following on from Pokémon Battrio and Tretta called Pokémon Ga-Olé. The mechanics of this are not yet known but you insert discs into the arcade machine, rather than rest the Tretta discs on top. It's not clear if this will replace Tretta or run in conjunction with it.
Edit @ 12:02: For the Pokémon Elections, announced last month, it is confirmed that the distribution Pokémon at the movie will be the winner. To enter, you need to get a card when prebooking the ticket and then send your vote in before May 8th. The winner will be announced in June and then distributed at the movie

Pokémon Komaster

The App, Pokémon Komaster, has just been released in Japan on Google Play, with iOS support to come shortly. This game is a board game where you select multiple various figures and have to try and take over the board using your figures against opponent figures. It's a free to play game and allows you to purchase diamonds in order to get better figures and items. You need Android 2.3.3 or higher to run and it requires 41MB to initially install. We'll be covering this game in full over the coming days so keep checking back.
Edit @ 07:45: There are figures of various rarity. The rarest of the figures are Charizard, Venusaur, Dialga and Palkia which each have a 0.5% chance of appearing when you buy a Single pack. Each Rare figure has a 1.5% chance of appearing and each Ultra Common figure has a 7.16-7.17% chance of appearing. All of the figures can be levelled up through gameplay. Much like the Trading Figure game, attacks are done by spinning, and damage inflicted depends on where the figure lands.

Until Next Time, See Ya
