Haha, not real HGSS news, those will be coming next week.
There is however, a new Pokemon game coming out.
It's called "Melee! Pokemon Scramble!". (Lol, sounds familiar?
)
This new WiiWare game with be available on the 16th of June in Japan, and will be worth 1500 WiiPoints.
By using Pokemon from your games, you can pit them against other Pokemon in a Battle Royale, using the WiiMote or Nunchucks to control your Pokemon.
There also seems to be a story mode with levels, and there's a Legendary Pokemon Final Boss of sorts.
You can also take screenshots of the battles, and up to 4 players can be connected to brawl it all out.
Some screenshots can be found
here.

Hmm, reading the same news over at Pokebeach gives a different view of the game.

Pokebeach.comThe game is basically this: You own Pokemon toys, wind them up, and then they fight in a ring until only one toy remains. As you play the game and advance, you collect new Pokemon toys. Each Pokemon toy has two attacks. On the Wii remote you use buttons 1 and 2 to select different attacks. For example, Garchomp's button 1 is Dragon Rage while button 2 is Crunch. As you progress through the game you earn coins which can be used to teach your Pokemon new techniques.
Before you are able to do anything, you send out your Pokemon to fight wild Pokemon. The Pokemon can roam freely using the D-pad and use a variety of moves, so it isn't as restrictive as the main series where you just choose attacks and Pokemon launch them. Wild Pokemon join you on your journey, and when they drop a "P" item on the ground, you can recruit additional Pokemon. After a while if you release some of the Pokemon you have encountered, the Pokemon gives you a parting gift - a ticket. The ticket can be used to recruit even stronger Pokemon. Once you gain a certain amount of strength and experience, you can participate in a Battle Royal. A Battle Royal is when you send your Pokemon out into an arena and it has to defeat 100 Pokemon. At the end of every level there is a Boss Pokemon you have to fight, which is a Legendary.
Up to four players can battle each other. If you have multiple Wii remotes, you can use them along with the Nunchucks for cooperative play. Additionally, photos can be taken during each match and your Pokemon toys can be stored on your Wii remote. After the game is released, the official Pokemon site will release passwords that you can redeem for rare Pokemon toys.
