This new Pokemon's name is Yanappu. He looks to me like a broccoli-flavored palette swap for Diamond and Pearl's Chimchar. Fine by me. Chimchar kicks ass, and I love broccoli. It's a win-win. It could get eve n better though. If there' a new chicken Pokemon, I'm totally pairing it with Yanappu for a delicious tag team. They may not win every match, but their tastiness will be undeniable. OK, now I'm hungry. Too bad it's 2am and all the restaurants are closed. come to think of it, why am I still awake, and why am I writing about Pokemon on a Saturday night?
Ah, who cares. Below, you'll get a quick look at some other new Pokemon in action, including a sarcophagus Pokemon and a spiky Grey Pokemon battling in glorious Van Damme-o-vision. That sounds a lot more interesting than my insomnia, am I right?

@Kaikara: Yeah, 'cause a fish, a rat, a rock, a bull, a dragon, etc. etc. (I could go on for ages) are more inspiring than the other generations right?
I think the beginning of White/Black should begin with a nuclear attack, wiping out all the Pokemon EXCEPT the original 151. That would be the best thing. Ever.
@ The Pilgrums- Really? That's not how I remember it. I thought that Leaf Green/Fire Red were compatible with all 386 Gen-3 Pokemon, but that in the main game, you can only catch the original 151.
To get some Gen-2 Pokemon, you had do go to the Sevii islands after you beat the game, or something like that?
