The latest issue of the Japanese magazine CoroCoro is finally out in Japan and fans are probably wondering if it mentions any updates about the release date of "Pokemon Z." Sadly though, it did not. They did, however, release new pictures of the three legendary "Pokemons" and announced that viewers of the anime "Pokemon X, Y & Z" will get to have the chance to acquire their codes for these monsters.

The photos, which are leaked online, depict the three legendary monsters from the game "Pokemon X," Y and the much awaited "Pokemon Z" and fans can get their codes during an episode of the anime show "Pokemon X, Y & Z." According to Nintendo News Fix, the distribution of this code is part of the celebration for the release of the show.

On the report from Crossmap, the legendary "Pokemons" that are set to be distributed are Xerneas, Yveltal, and Zygarde.

Each of these legendary monsters will have a specific schedule on releasing the codes, which will coincide during an episode aired for "Pokemon X, Y & Z."

Xerneas

Release date: October 29

Level: 100

Attacks: Geomancy, Moonblast, Aromatherapy and Focus Blast

Yveltal

Release date: November 5

Level: 100

Attacks: Oblivion Wing, Sucker Punch, Dark Pulse and Foul Play

Zygarde

Release date: November 12

Level: 100

Attacks: Land's Wrath, Extreme Speed, Glare and Outrage

Many fans have noticed that, the latter mentioned "Pokemon" Zygarde, is being distributed in his much younger form, to say the least. As IGN reports last month, Zygarde actually has five forms and they are in the form of a Core, Cell, a dog-like creature (10%), the 50% form of Zygarde that looks like a snake, and will be the one to be distributed next month and lastly and the final, mega form.

The other forms could probably be released at a much later timeframe or better yet, Nintendo could also release the remaining forms when they launch the highly anticipated game "Pokemon Z."

As for its release date, iDigital Times speculates that Nintendo might release the game probably by 2016 since the year 2015 is already coming to a close end. Furthermore, 2016 is also the franchise's 20th year anniversary, which could make sense and make the release as part of their celebration.

For now, it's best to take this one with a grain of salt, and that it would be best to wait for Nintendo's official announcement for "Pokemon Z."
