New Pokemon Silhouettes

Two new Pokemon silhouettes were revealed in Yahoo Japan's Pokemon page, at the Pokemon Garden feature page: http://pokemon.kids.yahoo.co.jp/dp/garden/garden.html. At that flash page, you need to head up to the third floor and talk to Ken Sugimori (the Pokemon artist) a few times and he will reveal two silhouettes.

Of course, if you don't want to go through that trouble, the two silhouettes posted above are the ones you can find there.

One out of the two Pokemon silhouettes released is revealed in full with two screenshots of the Pokemon. The Pokemon's Japanese name is Mukkuru, a Normal/Flying type, and is number #010 in the Shinou Pokedex, which means it's probably an early capture in Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl.

Starter Pokemon: Naetoru, Hikozaru, and Potchama

The Pokemon starters in Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl are revealed in the latest issue of the Japanese gaming magazine, Coro Coro. Naetoru is the grass type Pokemon, Hikozaru is the fire type Pokemon, and Potchama is the water type Pokemon.

Lucario is featured in the 8th Pokemon movie: Lucario and the Mystery of Mew

Lucario or Rukario?

Since Lucario have been revealed in Coro Coro, there has been a lot of talk whether the names would transfer to Romanization as "Rukario" or "Lucario." Although both could be correct, it's a matter which one will be used. Originally, a filename of an image at the official site for the new Pokemon was named as "rukario.gif." However, this was simply a filename, and later it became apparent that the official Japanese Romanization of the name is Lucario. The official English name for the Pokemon is also Lucario.
