THANKS to AAPF we now have two different sources promising new Pokemon announcements in May 15th's corocoro, which will have an entire seperate booklet for BW2 info, and 48 pages of new manga.

All About Pokemon Figure (AAPF): Upcoming Pokemon B2W2 Info

THANK YOU AAPF!

Now we begin the fun :) Remember new Pokemon might mean new form. It is also extremely unlikely that this is Genosect, but anything is possible.

NOTE: This information comes on top of other various merchandise based-evidence of new pokemon. These plush, one of which will be Pirouette Meloetta, leaving still a blank space for something:

And a total of 13 blank spaces in this Pokemon Zukan figure set.

New Pokemon? Do you mean Generation 6 Pokemon? I guess that its likely considering they have revealed other new gen Pokemon in the past in a similar fashion.
 
If it is indeed a Gen VI Pokemon, then will it be cross gen evo or an original Pokemon?
 
Maybe it's the presumed original dragon. I mean, what would be the point of introducing a Gen 6 Pokemon before BW2 come out, if players wouldn't be able to get it? Seems like it'd create more disappointment than anticipation. If you ask me, it'd be pretty bad timing.

Kecleon, Munchlax and a few others were revealed pretty early around mid gen.
 
On AAPF it says "21 Apr 2012 : CoroCoro Ichiban (Pokemon B2W2 adventure start guide) "

What's that? Coro Coro on April 21? Is that the bimonthly Coro Coro?

That would require giving it a big role in the movie; it would completely upstage Kyurem, so I don't think this is likely. I see it being featured in a movie next year (alongside Genesect) and being distributed to B2W2 then.

Precedent exists: Munchlax was revealed just before Emerald's announcement and it did create some confusion, but it wasn't featured in that game.

I doubt this particular advertisement means anything, as it only showcases Pikachu, Meowth and Keldeo right now. There are plenty of other movie characters - especially from the Meloetta short. I think that only one new Pokémon will be revealed, as they said from the get-go that there would be five surprises after Keldeo (there have been four so far).

i agree. i just feel it's wrong to leave it out. it's the plush poster that really has my eyebrows raised.

I think so :) New Pokemon thing isn't for a full month though.
 
So how likely is it that this is actually a new pokemon and not something that will get my hopes up then make me cry for days on end?

If this turns out to be a new Bidoof form..........

Do you think we can expect new info from that adventure start guide?

I hope so. The Pokemon Center has special pre-order clearfile and postcard goods with "new characters" that will be revealed "mid may". So I think that will be a gigantic news update. Next week's, if anything, will be small I think.
 
One space for a new Pokemon plush alongside Keldeo and Meloetta...
One event legendary left to be revealed...

Oh man, this is a tough mystery to solve.

But why reveal Genesect now if he is almost guaranteed to star in Movie 16? I dont get the point. Unless Movie 16 will be with a new Gen VI pokemon...

That is a cutesy plush set, Genosect would not fit in with it.
 
Yeah, I doubt its the original dragon or Genesect considering its on the 'cute' Pokemon page, which IMO makes me feel that it likely it could be a Gen VI Pokemon.
 
Here's the timeline surrounding Munchlax's reveal in 2004:

Munchlax revealed (May) -> Emerald announced (July) -> Speed Forme revealed (August) -> Emerald released (September) -> Diamond and Pearl announced (October)

A Generation VI Pokémon can definitely be revealed next month, even though B2W2 will only be released later. It shouldn't interfere with any plans to reveal Genesect and possibly the original dragon in B2W2's context, either.
 
I think it may be a new Pokémon, not a new form.
A 5th gen new Pokémon, not a 6th.
 
My guess is that it's the original dragon as Kyurem with traits of both Reshiram and Zekrom.
 
I don't see them adding new Pokémon for Generation V, so I say it's Generation VI Pokémon and formes (they can't reveal 13 formes can they? dismissing Arceus)

I have a feeling they'll be in the next movie (M16) not B2W2.
 
IMo Keldeo forme is most likely.

1.GF told us to use the Event Keldeo in BW2
2. Meloetta is on one page(both formes) and Keldeo is alone with a blank space.
