I'd go with AZ's Floette getting an evolution. Been wrong before looking back to the old threads from 2011/12 but whatever.

Also I am the only one who got a Dr. Seuss vibe as my first reaction to that silhouette? lol

I hope it's heavily inspired by such hip-hop visionaries as Fred Durst and Vanilla Ice

After seeing that design I can't say I wouldn't like seeing it in Pokken.

Red on the outside of the eyes, pink in the middle. Seems like a robo Diancie.

****. It's Mega Mewtwo all over again. LMAO

Not caring for the design (no Sugimori art?) and another Steel/Fairy (most likely) sounds like a missed opportunity.

It really does seem like it's a Fairy/Steel type and does resemble Diancie in some ways. The new movie will be called "Volcanion and the Exquisite Magiana". I wonder if Magiana is just a regular Pokemon in this case. I mean we've had Lucario and the Mystery of Mew movie before. It is interesting that it's lower half of its body is shaped as a Pokéball though.

I hope it isn't a legendary because I want one on my party and I don't wanna feel like a scrub when using one :p

Looks like one of my predictions regarding what will be the big Pokemon news of the February CoroCoro issue was right: it was either Pokemon Z or the reveal of an entirely new Pokemon, and it turned out the latter was right.

With all these comments about its comparison to Diancie, I'm glad I'm not the only one that had a Diancie vibe when I first saw it, especially when looking at the eyes.

My thoughts about the Pokemon? It's definitely one of the more... interesting Pokemon. Back when they first teased the Volcanion movie with Pikachu and all the gears, I had a feeling that maybe there will be a new Pokemon that will be somehow connected to those gears... and here we are. Let's see if this Pokemon will grow on me in the coming months.

I'm going to stick with the assumption that this is our first generation 7 Pokemon for now, but if it turns out to be a new Pokemon for the Generation 6.5 idea, I wouldn't mind that as well since Kalos could use a few more new Pokemon.

On a side note, the new movie's title is now "Volcanion and the Exquisite Magiana". Magiana was a Pokemon made over 500 years ago. Volcancion is chasing Magiana, and only it knows Magiana's secret.

Gotta admit, thinking about how Magiana was created can get amusing.

Like, these group of grown men and women sat down to make a powerful Pokemon and the design they went with was a robotic lolita of all things.

It was in tribute to Madoka obviously

One day Magiana will have a vaguely sexual encounter with Arceus and hunt for its embrace again

Shame it was revealed so fast, we didn't get a chance for people to interpret the silhouette in funny ways. Only a couple of half serious ones.

it's called magiana because it was created by giana, from the acclaimed and original commodore 64 game The Great Giana Sisters

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Well...
Kappaa the Rappa.

Also, about Magiana, it may still be a teaser for a "flagship mon" for Gen 7 being shown off.. actually like 2 years early but still.

Remember when Keckleon and Blaziken were in the Johto anime long before Gen 3?

That was fun.
