The "broccoli Pokémon" was confirmed as real in Pokémon Sunday.  I still say the "football fish" (credit for nickname to The Qu) could be real since the other Pokémon in the fake scan in which it appeared included a fan's version of this creature too. |

It looks okay. But I fear the evolution is going to be pretty nuts.

If we hadn't already seen the broccoli one like two months before that fake scan appeared I'd agree. But we had... so that's like assuming a Pokémon's real purely because a Pikachu was drawn alongside it. |

But we had... so that's like assuming a Pokémon's real purely because a Pikachu was drawn alongside it. Sure... My opinion is more on the side of "it can't be disproven yet". At least not like other more-blatant groups of fakes we've seen these months which held less water. I just hope it's real for you people who liked it  Words from PokéBeach staff: Pokemon Sunday just finished airing and revealed the green Pokemon that was first revealed as a toy several weeks ago: its name is Yanappu (ヤナップ). It is the Grass Monkey Pokemon, a pure Grass-type, knows a new attack named Acrobat, and its ability is Gluttony. In triple battles, Acrobat allows Yanappu to hit Pokemon outside its normal range, such as the opponent's Pokemon to the far left if it's on the far right. The attack's base power doubles when Yanappu does not have a hold item. In the video below, Acrobat is super effective against Tsutaaja, meaning it is most likely a Flying-type move. The Grass Monkey Pokemon stands 0.6m tall and weighs 10.5kg.
The Pokemon Sunday crew stated Yanappu is owned by someone in Best Wishes. I'll place my bet on Dento, especially since he is a waiter and the Pokemon resembles broccoli with oven mittens - imagine it climbing trees to get food for Ash and crew, then Dento cooking it (the food, not Yanappuu). This may mean Dento is a Grass-type Gym Leader as well. His hair color is green, a green background in used on his official Ken Sugimori artwork, and he ordered an unseen Pokemon in Thursday's video to use Solar Beam (perhaps Yanappu?). Green = Grass! Thanks go to Sabonea Masukippa and Bangiras for translating the above information

Brocolli monkey looks goofy. I like goofy. I'll take him as the team's grass 'mon.. if they don't make him crazy rare that is.

I think we have enough primates now. Where's my Koala? Hummingbird? Flamingo?

YOU CAN NEVER HAVE ENOUGH MONKEYS.
I will catch one. No questions asked, Yanappuu will be mine.

I love that thing, I really do.
I don't know if this has already been mentioned, but apparently Black & White are officially the fastest-selling DS games of all time, having sold over a million copies a month before even being released.

LOL. This reminds me of Pokemon Trainer's Final Smash where the starters combined their moves to make one super move. |

Combining Hydro Cannon, Blast Burn and Frenzy Plant are a must, along with Flamethrower, Thunderbolt and Ice Beam.
This sort of seems like when attacks are combined in the anime... interesting

Ideas: - Combinations with certain Rock-type move could turn attacks into physical
- Combinations with certain Water-type move could turn attacks into special
- Combinations with certain Psychic-type moves could increase accuracy of attacks
I'm sure we can come up with many, many more. This is fascinating. |
