Supposedly, the image on your right are silhouettes of new pocket monsters set to premiere in Nintendo's upcoming cash generator Pokemon Platinum. For those of you with very good sight, that would be them to the right of this text right here.Japanese site blue skY is reporting that this image is an advertisement from a Toys R Us in Japan. We'd like to comment further, but up until today, we didn't know there were Toys R Us chains in Japan. For those of you who're Pokemaniacs, care to comment on these?
Do they resemble the shapes of other Pokemon?

I dunno. I agree with the Rotom Theory. To me, from top to bottom it looks like: Rotom as a stove with legs, a satellite or the wi-fi building's globe with antennae, a camera, a refrigerator and as a mini-tv. That would be interesting if these all happened to be Rotom and I was right O_O "I attack you with my 'Cold Cabbage and Ice Cream From the Fridge' attack!"

The only one with any promise from their silhouette (read: doesn't look like an ass-retarded bundle of polygons glued onto a ball) is that red one in the lower left.

I have analyzed these photos extensively and the results say: not alt forms of rotom but in fact involve Rotom in general.

I think its more likely they are alternate forms but if they are new pokemon, maybe they are gonna bring the count up to 500? Maybe they made a way to patch new pokemon into d/p, who knows.

What if it's one new pokemon with many forms like burmy, arceus or evee?
It could be a new steel type legend (looks robotic) that has a huge number of evolution choices through stones/plates etc.

Drifloon. I can see Rotom, but for some reason I'm just seeing... Drifloon. The point on the head and two appendages make me think Rotom, who also seems to have the most malleable features, and Drifloon has four appendages, but I'd like to see alternate versions of Drifloon too.....

the compatability is not an issue anymore all they have to do is release an update via the pokemon network (and incude a shiny pokemon) ... to update the pokemon list and it's done new pokemon on d/p pokedex and on battle revolution

I'm thinking three of those silhouettes are alternate forms of the three minor Regis (rock, ice, and steel). The other would be Rotom's and maybe the last would be Spiritomb's. Just a hunch.

I think these are different forms of rotom which is ghost-electric. Maybe the forms will be
1. ghost-water
2. ghost-rock or ground
3. ghost-grass
4. ghost-fire
5. ghost-flying
