We did advise you not to bet against the validity of the starter Pokémon evolutions; in case you did, you’ve just lost! If you can’t do the maths then I’m sorry; really. Keep an eye on Pokéxperto for what they have been saying is now officially backed up.

Update: New scans, starter evolutions confirmed beyond any doubt.

And this issue reveals the following:

  • Basurao [バスラオ] the Violence Pokémon, Water-type, knows the Reckless or Adaptability abilities.

  • Tabunne [タブンネ] the Hearing Pokémon, Normal-type, knows the Healing Heart or Regeneration [さいせいりょく] abilities.
  • Monmen [モンメン] the Cotton Ball Pokémon, Grass-type, knows the Mischievous Heart [いたずらごころ] or Slip Through [すりぬけ] abilities.

  • Hiyappu [ヒヤップ] the Water Covered, Water-type, knows the Gluttony ability. It learns a new move called Boiling Water [ねっとう] can inflict a Burn though it is of Water-type.
  • Hiyappu [ヒヤップ] the Water Covered, Water-type, knows the Gluttony ability. It learns a new move called Boiling Water [ねっとう] can inflict a Burn though it is of Water-type.

Update: More translations:

  • A place called Dream Island is located in the Dream World where several Pokémon appear in their respective habitat. This is playable even if you do not own the game!
  • The Plasma Executive is called Geechisu [ゲーチス].
  • N owns Choroneko and Aloe, being a Normal-type Gym Leader, is weak to Chaobuu.
  • There is a Battle option straight on the main menu!
  • The Pokéshifter requires a second Nintendo DS and via DS Download Play the player can transfer their creatures from Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold and SoulSilver versions.









There are two other gym alongside Dento which use the other elemental monkeys. The fire gym leader is named Poddo [ポッド] and the other one is Koon (コーン). The gym leader you face appears to depend upon your starter Pokémon.
