Translations would help for these!

P.S. I vote Pokémon Iron due to the coloring!

Boss Archaic said that that means we will either be getting information about the Pokemon or the games in the issue from the 15th.

It's much more believable than those Farfetch'd and Delibird evolutions pages if that's worth anything. The copyright information is correctly spelt and all that.

But for the sake of translation, here's what I can make out top to bottom:

(something) Scoop
2010 Pocket Monsters
New Announcement!!
(circle of images and text just lists names of the games and years they were released)
Read CoroCoro's March edition!

Don't feel like looking up more kanji, so that's just the big image.

edit: whoops, skipped the Feb 15th line. >_<; Ah well, looks like that's already been said in all the time it took me to use the handwriting tool to find all the kanji. :p
 
Looks like a monster from the Telefang games... No, it really does! I played one of them (the bad, bad English fan-translation) and it seriously looks like one of the monsters!
 
Well, even if all they do is show us the silhouette again, I'm sure we would like to see more about it, but even that may be asking too much. When the Lucario silhouette was revealed, Coro Coro was speculating the same as we were. (or at least acting like they were)
 
I doubt its the shadow again. I'm betting on hyping it through the site and revealing it. I mean no point of not having it in the mag, only for it to get shown 6 days later in PS.

But PS announced they'll reveal in the 21.2 - why would they let Coro Coro reveal it before? wouldn't that make the PS reveal pointless?
Coro Coro will probably have the same shadow and tell us to watch PS
Then the next Coro Coro (which will be after PS reveal it) will give a few more details about it than PS did
I think it's more likely to go this way

Sure, why let a TV show people only watch 1-2 a month for news get all the glory instead of a mag that can hype and get info much better(er) then them. I still think its likely for CC to have it first.

Didn't this happen all the time during the HGSS hype?
I remember being informed on spoilers from the magazine way before Sunday said anything about them.

Indeed which is also a point why it doesn't make sense for me.
 
Well, I'm not sure how it was until now... did it happen before that PS announced they'll reveal something in the next show but CC revealed it first?
 
Many times with HGSS, and I mean mostly all the time with a new issue. Also they have to reveal it from now cause they have a 6-8 time period to reveal this game, get the new Pokemon rolling out, the region and everything like that unlike the 2-3 years they had previously. Major fucking rushes will be coming, mark my words. It'll be exciting but very very scary./
 
I think HG/SS was the first time Sunday gave us the info before Coro Coro did. Frankly, either could happen right now. Although, logically, I think it would be better for Coro Coro to show it now since they would have to wait an entire month if they don't. Usually, Sunday and Coro Coro have their info close to each other, so it would just seem odd. It could be possible, though. It would make them look bad, though.

EDIT: Besides, March (the April issue) may be dedicated to Ranger 3. That is usually how Coro Coro works.

I think it'd be logical that CoroCoro unmasks the new Pokemon in this coming issue, with Pokemon Sunday following suit on the 21st Feb episode (remember that for HGSS, Pokemon Sunday said that they were gonna reveal something BIG the one week with the gold and silver balloons, only for the Japanese Yahoo site to reveal the games one or two days prematurely), possibly providing a new trailer showcasing the newly revealed Pokemon as well.

I also wouldn't be surprised to see this coming CoroCoro display a couple of other new silhouettes to be unveiled the following month. The unveiling of Lucario was supplemented by the silhouettes of Mime Jr., Bonsly and Weavile, IIRC.
 
Well, remember that the unveiling of Lucario happened about one month after it's silhouette was shown. But yes, that is what happened. And three silhouettes were also shown when Manaphy was revealed. (although I don't think Manaphy was ever a silhouette itself)
 
The smaller text contains "世界一": "world first", so I'm assuming that they'll be revealing the Pokémon in full.

Here's a full (rough) translation:

Urgent exclusive scoop: newest Pokémon product to be released in 2010!!

It- it's a new Pokémon?!

For the details, read the March issue of CoroCoro Comics released on Feb. 15!

Ｓuper secret discovery of the Pokémon appearing in the movie!

CoroCoro is the first in the world with this Pokémon scoop!　Now, the Pokémon featured in the movie!　And it appears! Go immediately or be scolded!

It's mostly just what you'd expect, but there is one interesting thing. The word for "to be scolded", shikarareru, is written really weirdly: the 'shikarare' is written in katakana, with the "ru" in hiragana as normal. Japanese media often use katakana for emphasis where hiragana and kanji would normally be used, but the fact that only part of the word is in katakana seems odd to me, as well as the choice of word itself ("scold" doesn't sound like the right word to use there, but it couldn't find any other possible translation for it). I have no idea if there's any other explanation for why they wrote it that way, though.
 
I also kind of think that we may not see much because of that 2/21 date. Just seems weird cause it's two weeks. Like if they were to be revealing it on the 14th, I would see CoroCoro definitely having it revealed, since technically the release is the 15th. Having Junici Masuda on PS is kinda a big deal, so I feel like they would keep it special and not just be revealing something that's over a week old.

It's happened before, though, like when Yahoo! Japan scooped PS on officially announcing HGSS. It's not so weird that there'd be two announcements, and there's nothing to say that PS won't have information that CoroCoro won't.
