Announcement of Nintendo's mobile game for the first time as "Pokemon Go" mainly promises to take down Pokemon towards a completely different venue.

While the augmented reality game for mobile called "Pokemon Go" is expected to be released in 2016, Pokeman fans are hoping that "Pokemon Z" will be released on Dec. 15, Tuesday, as rumors previously claimed.

Before fans get to confirm the "Pokemon Z" release date, the 721st Pokemon called Volcanion was officially revealed. In 2016, the Mythical Pokemon will make an appearance in the "Pokemon" movie and will be distributed worldwide.

Described as a steam Pokemon, Volcanion uses both fire and water to create steam within its body. It expels explosive shock waves and boils steam from the arms on its back and the power is said to be able to blow away a mountain, gouge out the earth and change the shape of the land.

Volcanion is the first Pokemon to be both fire and water type and it currently cannot be encountered through regular gameplay. The story about its reveal is hosted on the official site for the most recent entries in the core RPG series titled "Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire."

Among the weakness of Volcanion are ground, rock, and electric type Pokemon. The new Pokemon is strong against bug, ground, steel and ice types and its special moves are scald, steam eruption and weather ball. It also has a power called water absorb, which negates damage and restores HP by 25 percent of the maximum HP of the user.

The latest Pokemon game is a free-to-play game for 3DS titled "Pokemon Picross," according to Game Spot. Nintendo likes to call it a free-to-start game.
