The May 2005 issue of CoroCoro has finally unmasked the 3 mysterious Pokémon sillhouettes which have been circulating in the Pokémon community since last month, Usohachi, Manene, and Manyula. Together with Munchlax and Lucario, this puts the total number of known Generation IV Pokémon at 5.
The three new Pokémon will debut in the upcoming 8th movie, Mew and the Wave-Guiding Hero: Lucario, in Japan this summer.
