Gaia Volcano/Tidal Storm

With Kyogre-EX, Groudon-EX, and the three starter final evolutions being revealed in November CoroCoro, the official website revealed a few more Pokémon for each of the two halves of the expansion. Newly revealed for Gaia Volcano is a Metal-type Honedge and Fighting-type Meditite, and Darkness-type Crawdaunt and Fairy-type Marill will be in Tidal Storm. The images for these four cards are incredibly small, and translations are not currently available at this time.

The remainder of the starter's families were revealed, however, with Mudkip and Marshtomp being in Tidal Storm and Treecko, Grovyle, Torchic, and Combusken being in Gaia Volcano. The three Basic Pokémon will be given new artwork for the English Hoenn Collection being released in November. Translations of these six cards are below.
