Fans are already getting excited on the launch of the new game “Pokemon Z”. However, Nintendo has not yet made an official announcement regarding the release date.
Vine Report wrote that alleged images of the Pokemon Zygarde recently leaked online. “Pokemon Z” is said to focus on the new creature, which may also explain the “Z” in the title. The photos were reportedly taken from the new issue of the Japanese magazine CoroCoro.
Aside from Zygarde, its five forms were also featured, namely the Core, Cell, 10%, 50% and PerfectxFormes, IGN revealed. The Core is the basic form of the Pokemon and the creature at such stage still cannot move or think. The Cell allows Zygarde to communicate telepathically but it will still be immobile. When 10% of the Cells in the surroundings is absorbed, the Pokemon will evolve, allowing it to move at speeds of over 60 mph and attack with its newly gained movement and fangs. The 50% Forme is the most common look of Zygarde. The last form is assumed when Zygarde perceives a threat from the environment.
Zygarde is the third legendary Pokemon. The first was Xerneas from “Pokemon X” and Yveltal from “Pokemon Y”. Initially, the Pokemon has the shape of a blob. The next stage turns it into a cell or a flat green blob. The 10% transforms it into a dog form, while the 50% changes it into a snake-like creature. The ultimate phase will turn it into a serpent-like Pokemon with green, white and black hexagonal patterns. Vine Report wrote that in its perfect form of Mega-evolution, Zygarde will have greater powers than Xerneas or Yveltal.
iDigital Times mentioned that the PokemonZygarde will be the center of the story in the upcoming “Pokemon Z”, which is expected to release sometime in 2016. “Pokemon X” and “Pokemon Y” launched in 2013, while “Pokemon Omega Ruby” and “Pokemon Alpha Sapphire” launched a year later.
JC Smith, Director of Consumer Marketing of the Pokemon Company International said that they have a lot of plans for 2016, but he cannot share details at the moment. He previously stated that Pokken Tournament will not be their main plan in the early part of the 2016 anniversary. Updates and details are expected in the coming months. In the meantime, fans of the franchise can enjoy other 2015 Pokemon games like “Pokken Tournament” in Wii and “Pokemon Go”, which is rumored to be playable on iOS and Android devices.
