Volcanion distribution

The latest issue of CoroCoro magazine comes out on Tuesday, but thanks to early leaks, we don’t have to wait until next week before seeing what’s inside. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like there’s anything about Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon.

However, CoroCoro magazine does have some details about the Pokémon distribution for the latest movie, Volcanion and the Ingenious Magearna. The magazine reveals that it will be distributed to players who pre-book a ticket for the movie from April 16th to July 15th. The download code, however, will be redeemable until September 30th.

Here’s some details about Volcanion:

• Level: 70
• Moves: Steam Eruption, Overheat, Hydro Pump: and Mist
• Item: Rage Candy Bar
