The rumor mills doing extra churning for release date info on "Pokemon Go" and "Pokemon Z" after the games' no-show in the recent Nintendo Direct. Word on the street is that Japan-based publication CoroCoro will allegedly spill the beans on the highly anticipated titles next month.

The issue the magazine put out for this month featured a blue-gemmed Zygarde Core. Apart from that though, it promised that fans will be treated to some "Pokemon" related news in its next issue, which will be published Dec. 15.

Whatever this news it, fans will get a glimpse of what Nintendo has in store for the beloved universe. However, apart from the possibility of "Pokemon Z" and "Pokemon Go" being made official, there's also the theory that the news will not be about the game but a movie.

According to Parent Herald, publications like CoroCoro usually provide details on upcoming films instead of games. That being said, it looks like this precious news from the magazine will end up being about the upcoming "Pokemon X, Y, and Z" anime film.

As for "Pokemon Go" and "Pokemon Z," it is expected that the much-awaited pair of games will be available sometime next year. Reports even say that the former will likely be released on Feb. 27. 2016. The title is reportedly integrating real-world settings.

This means that players can set the location as their own neighborhood or any real-life places. As part of Nintendo's purported efforts to make the game open and social, players can battle and search for Pokemon while communicating with fellow players. A Pokemon Go Plus device is apparently going to be released alongside the game. This will help players be notified of a nearby Pokemon. This works apparently via Bluetooth.

As for "Pokemon Z," which is also expected to be out next year, it is being said that the Dragon and Ground-type Legendary Pokemon Zygarde will be introduced for the said title. The complete form of the Pokemon is said to be much more powerful than Legendary Pokemon Xerneas and Yveltal.
