With the leak of {{p|Shaymin}}'s [[form differences#Shaymin|Sky Forme]] in name, but without images to back the claim up, PurpleKecleon, a well-known Pokémon artist, created a fake version of this alternate form.

Needless to say, many in the fandom jumped to conclusions about its veracity<ref>[http://eevee.livejournal.com/289857.html fuzzy notepad - Sky Forme Shaymin is fake]</ref>, as the trademark on the terms "Land Forme" and "Sky Forme" had already been verified, while there was heavy evidence that Shaymin would be getting an alternate form. Thus, it became easily the most well-timed prank in the Pokémon fandom.

PurpleKecleon, however, announced the next day in her [[wp:DeviantArt|deviantART]] journal that she had created the fake Sky Forme Shaymin. The real one was leaked some time later in artwork on drink cups from [[Pokémon Festa]].

Kaenchu's name derives from the Japanese words 火炎 ''kaen'' (meaning "flame" or "blaze") and チューチュー ''chūchū'' (the sound of squeaking). It was purported to be an [[evolution]] of {{p|Pikachu}}, capable of generating thermal power and unloading hydrogen explosions. At one point, it ascended to the fourth position of the daily trending topics of the website [[wp:Yahoo|Yahoo! Japan]] and was retweeted thousands of times on the social networking website {{wp|Twitter}} before being discovered to be part of a hoax.
