Scans for the February 2012 issue of CoroCoro have surfaced on [http://www.2ch.net/ 2ch], revealing that the first crossover {{bp|Pokémon games|Pokémon game}}, {{bp|Pokémon + Nobunaga's Ambition}}, is set for a March 17 Japanese release. As revealed by [http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B006NTTVSO/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_6nzdpb1S5KXJ4 Amazon], which also revealed the game's boxart, the game has a retail price of ¥5800.

The CoroCoro scans, as translated by Dogasu on Bulbagarden Forums, also revealed the following:
*The game will feature six-on-six battles described to be like chess or {{wp|shogi}}. Each of six characters in the battle has one Pokémon under their command.
*The bushou (武将), military commanders or generals, have Bushou Power, abilities that they can use to help their Pokémon in battle. These powers include increasing a Pokemon's movement and healing HP.
*Ponigiri (from "Pokémon" and "{{wp|onigiri}}") can help make Pokémon stronger.
*Bushou can join with Pokémon from their home nations by linking with them.
*Other bushou can be recruited.
*The characters of the game come from various nations:
**The player character is from the Hajime Nation (ハジメの国). 
**{{bp|Toyotomi Hideyoshi}}, the one with an {{p|Infernape}}, is from the Kaen Nation (カエンの国). He is shown in the scan with a {{p|Monferno}}
**Motonari, the one with a {{p|Servine}}, is from the Aoba Nation (アオバの国)
**Motochika, the one with a {{p|Dewott}}, is from the Izumi Nation (イズミの国).

[http://pokejungle.net/2012/01/11/corocoro-leaks-4/ pokejungle<!--site says so-->] adds the following:
*Despite a different way of battling, Pokémon still maintain their {{bp|elemental type|types}}, including their resistances, immunities and weaknesses.
*Players conquer castles by defeating leaders found in seventeen castles.
*Players may battle other players using the {{bp|Nintendo DS}}'s wireless capabilities or {{bp|Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection}}.
*New allies, in the form of both Pokémon and leaders, are met by increasing one's power in the game.

{{bp|Pokémon + Nobunaga's Ambition}} takes place during an era much like feudal Japan and is set in the Ranse region. The game was officially revealed Dec. 17, 2011 during the 2011 Jump Festa event.
