Couldn't they have picked a screenshot that wouldn't have confused so many people? Like this one.

@sunyshore I still think that tweeting Masuda would be a good idea. I doubt it would make him uncomfortable if you just asked him if he could recognize the Pokémon.

The game is about using AR to catch Pokemon. It'd be a bit lousy if they announced what it did, and revealed two screenshots with neither showing you actually catching Pokemon.

Its not showing you catching the pokemon, its showing you attempting to catch the pokemon. They could do that with any Pokemon, chose to do so with a very dubious shadow, and thus its acceptable to assume anything from a new Pokemon/forme, to a very warped perspective of it. But good lord does it have to be warped.

I think it's Articuno.



3D models can be slightly different from 2D drawings. Also, perspective can change a lot of stuff.

That Articuno looks particularly uncomfortable, as if it were being hung. Poor thing.

Still doesn't explain the "hands/lumps"

nice rendering. that's what i needed someone to do. still not sure if i can accept it as articuno, or anything else we know of, since it still has non-articunoy features, and i'm not SURE i buy that shape being a tail... that one point doesn't really come out from the right spot... but job well done. i like it. it makes me understand better.

Nah, Articuno is totally just getting all bro-time with a couple of Voltorbs, yo. Articuno would be making cool hand gestures and holding a beer can if he had fingers.

Fat foot Articuno? It needs a new forme.

Now it looks like Staraptor with a huge mohawk.

I too think its Articuno. The thighs(?) look similar.

It's just a generic silhouette for bird Pokemon.

Generic silhouette isn't gonna happen for a game where the designs come by the dozen, and it could be anything.

It's wearing something because it works for or escaped from a villian

Right....

Cos thats the norm, just showing a pokemon that isn't actually a pokemon, just a mixture of all the birds in a silhouette?

FWIW I cannot put my finger on what this is. Spent today looking over it and nothing actually fits in. The two possible outcomes for me is an already known Pokemon with a slightly different looking 3d model, or a new pokemon/forme.

The hand/lumps on the wings still don't match up, and the legs are too fat. It could be articuno, or maybe archeops, idk. I still think it looks much more like Archeops.
