This month's "reveal a whole bunch of new Pokemon" contains six new additions, including the two who were revealed about a week ago in this month's Corocoro.
Wimpod (1'8", 26.5lbs) is a Bug/Water-type with the Wimp Out ability, which allows wild Pokemon to flee from battle if their health drops below half. Hopefully, if it evolves, it will not randomly become Bug/Flying, Masquerain. Bounsweet (1', 7.1 lbs) is a Grass-type with Leaf Guard and Oblivious. It doesn't appear to reveal any new abilities or moves at this time.
Comfey (4", 0.7 lbs), a Fairy-type Hawaii lei Pokemon, receives Flower Veil and a new ability, Triage, which gives priority to healing moves. Ground-type horse Mudsdale (8'2", 2028.3 lbs) gets Own Tempo and the new ability Stamina, which raises Mudsdale's Defense one stage when hit with attacks.
Finally, Mimikyu and Bewear were revealed in this month's Corocoro. Mimikyu is a Ghost/Fairy-type possessed doll who assumes the appearance of Pikachu in an effort to become popular. Its new ability Disguise has Mimikyu's Pikachu costume take one hit for it, after which it slumps over. Bewear (6'11", 297.6 lbs) is a Normal/Fighting-type red panda with Fluffy and Klutz as its abilities. Fluffy is a new ability that halves damage from direct contact moves but double damage from Fire-type attacks.
In possibly the most exciting news for people who have wasted thousands of hours hatching Pokemon eggs (like me!), a new feature called Hyper Training may actually let players raise the IVs of their Pokemon? The official site doesn't come out and acutally say "IVs" since that's a fanon term, but the fact that they're hyping Hyper Training's effect as something that was never before possible seems to indicate this! Exciting!!!
