Official Arceus image surfaces: No. 493 to star in this year's movie

The first official non-in-game depiction of the final Pokémon in the National Dex, Arceus, was revealed today in an image of a page from the March issue of CoroCoro, a monthly comic book that is a major source of Pokémon news. The small scan also confirmed Arceus' role in the 12th movie as the star.

[0_o o_0]

yay finnaly an Arceus film

 

[Musashi]

Hooray! Glad they've all been officially revealed.

This movie is going to be beyond awesome.

 

[Shinx3000]

Yay! Going to be one great movie I can guess. Can't wait to see it. Maybe we'll have an Arceus event soon after the movie comes out then?

 

[Maxim Posthumus]

Is that official sugimori art? =O

I'm sure it is. I bet 100 smackers.

Anyway, that's about time they revealed that freakin' goat.

And that Fanart picture from Bulbapedia goes to trash! Finally!

Now I'm waiting foe the CoroCoro release and further details about the movie.

 

[Blackjack Gabbiani]

That's an insanely crappy scan. Can't they smack it down on an actual scanner for five seconds?

 

[Argy]

It might have been taken with a cell phone camera in a store... you never know.

 

[Grave-E]

Even from the itsy-bitsy, teeny-weeny scan, that's some incredible looking art from Mr. Sugimori. I'm really looking forward to seeing this creature in animation too.

 

[snorlaxzilla]

That is cooler then a fat kid rolling down a hill landing in a chocolate pudding factory! Arceus FTMFW.

 

[Luxio2k8]

All I can say is FINALLY!!!

Now all we need is the conformation of the first Gen V Pokémon and Movie 12will be awesome!!!

 

[Jukain]

Is anyone honestly surprised by this? I didn't think so. It's nice to see official art at last.

 

[Lil Brother]

Heh, I'm getting absolutely giddy at the prospect of seeing Arceus running around in the high-quality movie animation. I'm eager to see the full pic. I was somewhat surprised to see it was based off the Pt sprite instead of the DP one.

 

[Nando]

It might have been taken with a cell phone camera in a store... you never know.

It was. Another page mentions Nando, Jun and Torkoal evolving.

This art is certified Grade-A BADASS. At this point it'll be hard for them to muck up the movie.

 

[X Dragoon]

Well, at least we have Arceus legitly revealed.

 

[Trainer-c]

Finally, Arceus confirmed. I can't wait to see a full scan of that art.
