Title: Su/Mo trailer topic - Alolan forms, leaks and more
Post by: Shaymin on August 01, 2016, 15:03
Another SuMo trailer released today on the Japanese Pokémon Youtube - and what the hell

here it is (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iaav6J6XzFs)

Instead of a mega bracelet (or perhaps with a mega bracelet) we get a Z bracelet which gives Pokémon a Z move. No idea what that is at the minute.

Also new pokémon, and pokémon that directly fight your trainer

Lemme just say the only thing I really have an opinion on is Winter Vulpix. I would hug it and pet it and love it and never let it go if I had one irl. I want it so bad.

Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: The Hooded Trainer on August 01, 2016, 15:54
Ice ninetales is my favourite thing ever and i want one right now. Other than that, im genuinely impressed with how much they seem to be shaking things up. Its like theyre actually putting real thought into the game.

Also kind of wondering if mega evolution will even be a thing now. Ive seen people debating it before and i didnt think much of it, but now that theres a new mechanic that requires a weird bracelet, plus a new kind of special form, it does raise some questions.
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: not chloe on August 01, 2016, 16:18
Sun/Moon look absolutely wild and I'm not sure if I'm happy abt it?

I know they probably feel like they've got to bring in new features that keep the game fresh but not sure if they're trying too many different things at once. I just really hope that game/battle mechanics don't become endlessly confusing because I already have a hard enough time with it lol
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: Pam-the-Lamb on August 01, 2016, 16:47
 Kinda gutted with Yungoose's evo ngl, looks a bit like a blond Daryl from TWD.

 It looks super good tho with Litten's nuke thing. Chuffed that Eggbae gets more attention lol.

I'm looking forward to this trial thing- providing it doesn't replace pokemon gyms....
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: Shaymin on August 01, 2016, 17:41
apparently there was also a leak of the final evos that everyone was like "haha that's fake cause litten's evo is just bad furry bait" but it had one of the trials girls on it

(https://66.media.tumblr.com/afc29430e1bf397cf598c7f84818c489/tumblr_ob8g7xgZ7u1qhaj56o1_1280.jpg)

so alla yall getting litten i hope u enjoy its final evo LOL

rowlet and popplios final evos tho... nice. good stuff. 100
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: MonsterMon64 on August 01, 2016, 17:51
^About the only one I like from those IS the Litten final evo. I'm rather indifferent to the owl  but I really hope that's not Popplio's final form. Not that it's a deal-breaker or anything, I guess I was just expecting something less... that. Not that it'll prove or disprove anything, but middle evos when?

While I'm being skeptical here, the only gripe I have with the Alolan forms of old Pokemon is the possibility that the actual amount of new Pokemon from Alola is not going to be much more than the new Pokemon from Kalos. I mean, I like the idea, don't get me wrong-- I'm looking forward to discovering new variations of old Pokemon, if more are to be had-- but I really like discovering entirely new species, too.

Kalos' routes felt oversaturated with wild Pokemon to me, and there weren't enough new Pokemon to make it feel like its own region. Here's hoping Sun and Moon strike a balance somehow.
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: SirBlaziken on August 01, 2016, 17:55
TBH I read the bad furry bait part and laughed because that's pretty spot on at least for those kind of furries, most furries aren't completely corrupted and perverted but that's a chat for another time.

Anyways, the rowlet final evo looks like someone who would approach you in NYC and ask you to buy a watch, either that or steal your wallet and basketball tickets in Cleveland.

Love popplio's final evo, though it looks pretty feminine and that's a bit odd since most starters are male. Looking at you fennekin.
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: MonsterMon64 on August 01, 2016, 18:03
^You might be able to make an argument for Braixen, but I didn't think there was anything strongly feminine about Delphox.

And yeah, I guess what I was hoping for was something to play up the clown/performer aspect Popplio made me think, but whoever designed it might have had a different kind of performer in mind (I mean, Disarming Voice does lend the idea to a singer...)

If it turns out to be Water/Fairy like the rumors say, though, that's not so bad imo. Better than pure Water again.
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: Captain Jigglypuff on August 03, 2016, 03:33
I really like the Alolan forms of older Pokemon. I hope we also get a Alolan Gyrados that is finally part Dragon and maybe have a moray eel type look to it, an Octillery based on a blue ring octopus and part Poison, and an Alolan Bellossom that is more vibrant and has tropical flowers on its head.
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: Shaymin on August 05, 2016, 22:32
More (potential) new Alola formes! Do not hold me to these, they just came across my tumblr dash. Will do more digging to see if I can find the trailer!!
(https://66.media.tumblr.com/9b0a7fbc5b9f50dcb07c6fdaccc7f772/tumblr_obf3beELFa1tjyp7eo1_540.png)

EDIT: These are most likely definitely fake now that I did some diggin, but there are leaks saying several other Pokémon are getting Alola forms. Watch this space.

honestly tho i would kill for new eon forms ngl
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: SirBlaziken on August 06, 2016, 14:00
Alola Vaporeon in that if it's true looks like somehing you'd fish out of the ohio river if someone dumped a bunch of food coloring into it ngl.
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: Ya-Yah on August 07, 2016, 16:03
Wouldn't it be pointless for Alolan Vaporeon to be pure water type? What wold be the change? I find the Jynx one a little more believable but if it came from the same source then they're more than likely both fake.
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: MonsterMon64 on August 08, 2016, 03:20
^At the end of the day I'd sooner trust the official reveals, but a decent enough fake can be interesting to talk about, I suppose!

As per your question, idk if it'd be a real justification, but all I can think of is rearranging the base stats. Seems hinted at with Sandshrew and Sandslash getting slower at least. Honestly though, I'd be surprised if any of the Eeveelutions got any Alolan forms, unless they really want to have an Eeveelution of every type after all. Maybe Alolan Sylveon will be pure Flying

I like the idea of Alolan Jynx, though I don't see it happening, at least not with that exact design. Fairy/Psychic might be possible, though knowing Game Freak we could just as easily get Grass/Psychic, Grass/Ghost or Grass/Fairy.

I think an Alolan Vaporeon would look more like a siren and be part Fairy since it was based on a mermaid. I picture it with no hind legs and the tail as half its body and tail fin similar to Gyrados.

Post by: Ya-Yah on August 09, 2016, 10:28
Just seen the new leaks. Do you think Alolan forms will exist alongside or instead of the originals?
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: MonsterMon64 on August 09, 2016, 11:52
I'm just gonna make a wager and assume they'll be in place of the previous 'mons, with the incentive being transferring from VC Red/Blue/Yellow or X/Y/OR/AS if you want their older forms.

No idea if it's just Kanto 'mon getting the treatment, but I thought I heard/saw a while back there were wild Doduo and Ledyba, and they seemed unchanged, so unless it's their evolved forms that get a change, seems like there's no reason they can't include both. I mean, four islands to work with, it's possible the island Ghost/Flying Oricorio is from might have regular Meowth, I dunno.

it's been confirmed that any Pokémon with Alolan forms will remain their normal forms if transferred to SuMo. Alolan forms are ones you capture in the region - and I remember reading that if you breed one of the forms the child should take the form of the parent.

EDIT: Not sure if I'm allowed to post CoroCoro leaks but whatever here they are what the hELL IS THAT SANDCASTLE ABOMINATION

Spoiler: show

Maybe it's just me being a grumpy old grandma but some of these just don't feel like Pokemon? The weird pink/black bear in particular. I actually weirdly like the sandcastle?


Also how cute is the doggo?????

"So they didn't like the ice cream pokemon? Screw them, they can have a sandcastle." - Last Game Freak Team Strategy Meeting

ngl I like the sandcastle pokemon. Alolan Marowak looks really good, it's my favorite one so far besides for alolan vulpix/ninetales.
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: Inferna on August 09, 2016, 17:16
3rding the sandcastle actually being cute??? It looks so stupid I love it

Personally I think it would be cool if Pokemon that never evolved got alternate forms/variations or whatever they're going by. I'd love to see: Lapras, Herracross, Kecleon and Emolga tbh.

Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: SirBlaziken on August 09, 2016, 17:47
Heracross has a mega already, so I don't see it getting another form.
Title: Re: New Su/Mo Trailer - old Pokémon renewed??
Post by: Captain Jigglypuff on August 09, 2016, 22:55
I love the sandcastle! I like how it's eyes are lights in the windows and its mouth is the door! This is my second favorite new Pokemon after Mimikyu. My third is Rowlet, fourth Komala, fifth Bewear, and sixth and seventh Popplio and Litten.

he's a cool ass surfer boy how dare you come for him like this

EDIT: The Japanese trailer has landed! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VmMURRKWFk)

EDIT 2: The English trailer has landed! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Py2LxgWBaRQ)

A look at the Team Skull grunts
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/8f1540ea30c44542ab843cd4b36ddb16.png)
For the first time, we also see people using different kinds of Pokéballs! (This was in the Team Skull grunt shot and they appear to be nest balls)
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/21444e185995428aad65ac3ff338791c.png)
One of the Team Skull admins is called Plumeria, and she refers to the grunts as her "cute, dumb brothers and sisters"
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/0f6c1778c7ed4f199fa466f152461756.png)
Guzma is the boss of Team Skull, and he insinuates that both himself and Kukui are "fellow rejects who never could become captains" (also he literally says "It's your boy Guzma". I hate nintendo)
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/11ce538b065a4bf9bad3393696f335b3.png)

Fairy/Bug mushroom, called Morelull. It's grass/fairy and it's abilities are Illuminate and Effect Spore
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/22332fc2bc364c70ba0c723b366cd4e9.png)
Wishiwashi, doesn't evolve but has a single form and a shoal form, the latter which is triggered by it's ability. After you land a hit on it, it returns to it's singular fishie form. It's ability is called Schooling, but it only becomes active after a certain level! Single Wishiwashi is called Solo Form, big Wishiwashi is called School Form, and it's pure water type.
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/ead8f750796941a99a512dd45a9bf9a6.png)(http://image.prntscr.com/image/9555fbd754204865abc31fb36763794d.png)
The cute lil anenome puff, called Pyukumuku. It's ability is Innards Out, which injures enemies after they attack Pyukumuku, and it's pure water type.
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/6c4e7a30d8724ea0beeeccd99ae20ade.png)
Alolan Meowth confirmed, dark type. Abilities are Pickup and Technician
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/8a3b83eb45284b2f809369a4be06743b.png)
Cubone doesn't get an alolan form, but Marowak does, and it's fire/ghost. Abilities are Cursed Body/Lightning Rod
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/c3a84eca515240a48df9e7b5e59abca8.png)
Pikachu also does not get an alolan form, but raichu does, electric/psychic. It's got a new ability called Surge Surfer. Whenever Electric Terrain is active, Alolan Raichu's speed doubles, making him 2 fast 2 furious
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/5d644031d78843f0ad453dac1ae426de.png)

That wraps up the Japanese trailer, will post a link to the English one when it arrives.

I think Raichu looks adorable. The Audino ears are both weird and random but I think this form will help boost Raichu's popularity and stats. We haven't had an Electric/Psychic type before so this should be interesting to see.

i think so too! it's a throwback to the surfing pikachu you see in (iirc) pokemon yellow's opening and in pokemon snap. i love the fact it's tail is a surf board - and honestly it's super cute and even tho i love pikachu as it is i may evolve the one i'm going to have on my team in this game

unpopular opinion but i really dislike the raichu alololoan form. i love the morelull though, so cute. i love the team skull grunts too, well, all of team skull.  wishiwashi is also cute, but i only like the big wishiwashi. the single one looks a little... unoriginal, but im not sure why? still digging the marowak though

Turtonator... Not too crazy about the design. The typing also seems odd as it looks more like a Rock type than Dragon. It also looks like a disfigured Magmar whose parents were a rock and some sort of flower. My least favorite new Pokemon so far. Shell Trap sounds like a rom using move though.

Oh man, I really like Crabrawler. Poor thing looks like it took one too many punches, but hey, comes with the job, I guess.

(This is where I'd probably question its pure Fighting typing, but honestly, I'm not even complaining, it's cool enough for me to use as-is)

I'm going to take an unpopular stance here. I like sandygast and palossand honestly. They're based off the antlion, which is a cool mythical* beast (used to hate it thanks to Kingdom Hearts 358/2) and it's so stereotypical "screw it" that it kinda makes me want to like it. The only thing is the ability means it still eats the damage from that water attack before it gets the defense boost, so it's really not a great ability in all reality from my perspective.

*Correct me if i'm wrong about the mythical thing.

Post by: MonsterMon64 on August 20, 2016, 14:33
^I like their concept, but not their visual design. As for their ability, thinking maybe it could mitigate it somewhat with a Sitrus Berry in singles but that's about it. In doubles or especially Triples, I could picture a couple Aqua Jets from its partners being enough to make it a pain in the butt for physical attackers, maybe slap Leftovers on it in that case. But I'm no competitive expert, just my two cents.

...Wait, Surskit gets Aqua Jet as an Egg Move? Even better. You could open with Palossand and Masquerain with Intimidate. A bit gimmicky, but better than nothing. I guess the obvious flaw is special attacks are still an issue...

Also, antlions are real, it's just that RPGs have a tendency of making them huge (I used to think scorpions were giant too, but I blame that on ages ago when I saw Clash of the Titans, as well as RPGs) =P

Speaking of unpopular opinions, though, I kinda like Turtonator. This is the first generation Game Freak's making enough Dragon-types that tempt me to actually use one, but I'm probably gonna stick with Drampa still.
Title: Re: Su/Mo trailer topic - Alolan forms, leaks and more
Post by: Captain Jigglypuff on August 21, 2016, 00:59
The idea behind Turtonator is cool but it's design looks akward. Why did they give its Magmar mouth?
Title: Re: Su/Mo trailer topic - Alolan forms, leaks and more
Post by: MonsterMon64 on August 24, 2016, 23:39
^To be fair, Magmar's mouth isn't always like that, usually just when it's breathing fire. Meanwhile Turtonator has tube-for-mouth all the time, it seems. Unless that's its nose? The official art leads me to think those yellow lines on its face are a sweet mustache, but the in-game polygons are a bit confusing.

Other than the headache I just gave myself, I concede it's a noisy/clunky design, but at least it's stylized enough to look like a Pokemon imo, in contrast to the sandcastle ghosts which would probably bother me less if they were consistent with darn-near everything else. I was going to say this about Bewear, too, but I don't actually dislike it otherwise. Its prevo is kinda cute, too.

Anyway, enough Pokemon design theory on my part. I'm still curious about Rockruff's secret and how it's connected to the starters, but nothing official has been revealed yet. I've heard all sorts of crazy rumors, though. Aren't we getting more news about it some time in September? I forget.
Title: Re: Su/Mo trailer topic - Alolan forms, leaks and more

I'm wondering if we will get Aloan Vileplume, Bellossom, Lilligant, Gyrados, Flygon, Liepard, and Toxicroak and Croagunk.
Title: Re: Su/Mo trailer topic - Alolan forms, leaks and more
Post by: MonsterMon64 on August 25, 2016, 12:23
^At the rate reveals are going, we might just end up with Gen 1 Pokemon, but I could see the Oddish line getting the Alola treatment. If not, then throw the Bellsprout line a bone, at least! (Then again, I just like Weepinbell ;3; ) Other than that, those others you listed do sound like they'd be possible candidates, on the off-chance it's not limited to the first generation.

Not sure we'd get Alolan Gyarados even then though, seeing as how it already has a Mega and so far none of the Pokemon with Alolan forms had Megas in Gen 6... but it would be a chance to give it that Water/Dragon Gyarados everyone's wanted since forever. I still don't get why Mega Gyarados was Water/Dark, but it was cool for what it was imo.

Oh, forgot to mention, I really like Alolan Raichu. Was toying with the idea of making an Electric Terrain team, so that'd be perfect for that.

Dark/Normal Rattata with the abilities Hustle and Gluttony

Certain Pokémon are revealed to have their very own Z Moves (Such as Alolan Raichu)

You can get a special Munchlax for purchasing early aka preordering. You can give it a... Snorlium Z after it evolves. That means it gets it's own Z Move called Pulverizing Pancake - which is VERY reminiscent of the use it uses if you get it in Super Smash Bros! (aka the using it's fat ass to destroy)

Guess I should have seen this coming... Not that I seriously dislike Alolan Raichu's, and I guess even Snorlax's will grow on me, but I was kinda hoping for no favoritism with the SUPER MECHANIC this time around. It's the one thing I didn't like about Mega Evolutions; other than a few odd ones out, it was mostly popular ones getting 'em. Which I guess was the point, given the DEEPEST LORE behind it. We still don't know what the in-game excuse for Z-moves is, though, so I guess it's too early to say anything with certainty.

I like the Alolan Rattata though.

I've wanted a Dark/Normal Rat for years. I came up with my own Pokemon called Pakrat which is this sneaky looking rat like Pokemon that always carries around a large sack to put everything it finds on the ground to keep in it's nest. The entry I made up even said that it'll snatch Pokeballs with Pokemon still inside and will fight furiously if anyone or anything tries to retrieve lost items from it's nest.

 Alolan Rattata is bae of the year 2016, lads. It's over.

 Pretty hyped from that trailer ngl, the Snorlax had a creepy moment. Totally waiting for someone to edit a clip of its Z-Move where Snorlax jumps into the air and it transitions to iDubbbz landing and shouting "I'M GAY!". That seems to be the cool thing to do rn.

 Gotta say a thank you to Shaymin for updating with trailers and images, it's pretty cool.

Far left is Lusamine, the glamorous President of the Aether Foundation. How does she get her hair like that. She wants to shower Pokémon with love.
The balding fellow with the outta control sunglasses is Faba, the Branch Chief. He tells you the island is artificial which is cool.
Pink gal with the ridiculous heels is Wicke, Assistant Branch Chief.
The two nerds are just employeers, sorta like grunts I guess.

Team Skull has a new named person, Gladion! I wonder what they're glad about
it's not a phase mom

The aether foundation seem super untrustworthy and i wouldnt be at all surprised if they turned out to be the true evil team. (Which id be totally on board with, since team skull are awesome and id love to team up with them for even just a little bit.)

Type: null confused me for ages as well. I couldnt work out if null was a new type, and if it was how it was null type and also normal type at the same time. Weird name aside, i love the design, so maybe ill catch one and just give it some dumb pet name.

A newly released Japanese trailer! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8oO_P4GX_RA) Currently not on the English page, will post it when it is.

As I can't read Kanji at all I have no idea what most of it says, so unless someone can translate we're pretty stuck - until the English one comes out, if it does.

however I can reveal that this hot piece of ass is Samson Oak, Samuel Oak's cousin.

I've no doubt they're Pokémon - but I think like Ditto and Mewtwo they are man made. Nothing about them seems natural - they may even be alien Pokémon like Deoxys. We'll unfortunately have to wait and see - but undoubtedly, Tapu Koko, who is called the island's guardian in a trailer, doesn't seem to enjoy their presence

lord almighty he's not kiddin (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLWz2YMJSlg)

today's trailer brings version exclusives to light! brace urselves, this is the make or break for many of us when it comes to choosing

Sun gets Passimian! A pure fighting monkey with the ability Receiver, really doesn't want you to touch his coconut. Also, looks like a foosball player
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/3c6d484719364d91bb01dc1633004f60.png)(http://image.prntscr.com/image/62dfbca171b14d02aee2c954e72f1124.png)
Receiver can take on the ability of other Pokémon when they are defeated in battle.

Moon gets Oranguru! A normal/psychic not very orange orangutan with the abilities Inner Focus and Telepathy.
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/0ab723ae84cb49989c767bc5ad918ec6.png)(http://image.prntscr.com/image/a3ec7c46f5644410b0f0a199466fb8f8.png)
It gets a new move called Instruct, and it can essentially tell a Pokémon to use a move - in double battles, this can make your Pokémon (or your foe's!) attack twice! Telepathy allows it to avoid attacks that would normally hit all Pokémon on the field when used by a battle partner.

Rockruff, the cutesy pup we all love, has version evolution exclusives!
Lycanroc, Midday Form. Rock type, Keen Eye or Sand Rush
(http://image.prntscr.com/image/1131b4a2d5a5454bb840b6d29ec78ecc.png)(http://image.prntscr.com/image/93a1b18517dc4b81bd9bc3c41b7de36d.png)

Coming out of left field like a reject Sonic character, Lycanroc, Midnight form. Rock type, Keen Eye or Vital Spirit

There's too much in terms of Trainer Customisation to screenshot and say witty things about, but it's back! And Better Than Ever™!

Many more hair colours and styles, more contact lense colours, and white clothes can be dyed an array of colours!

No Pokémon Amie, but this time we get Pokémon Refresh - you can groom your 'mons. It seems to work similarly to Amie, but with grooming aspects instead!

Pikachu and Eevee are getting exclusive Z-Moves - Catastropika and Extreme Evoboost respectively. Judging by Evoboost, no secret Eeveelution, rip. Evoboost raises the stats rather than being a physical destroy-ur-enemies move

I just saw the new trailer and now I'm even more pumped up for the games next month! The PC Box now has an Evernote bigger purpose and we can all feel less guilty for leaving Pokémon to stay locked up in the PC. Ash-Greninja looks pretty cool and I'm wondering if the new Ability can be changed with the Ability Caapsule and ca even be bred onto Froakie so it can change forms as well? And I think that the Brionne maybe Shiny in the trailer. It is clearly a lighter blue than the artwork seen on the website.

Poké Pelago (archipelago? Get it?) is where your boxed friends spend their time, in Paradise! In Poké Pelago you can attract Wild Pokémon that may join your game, and your own 'mons can search for valuable items! You can leave some of your Pokémon here to train too, by levelling up or just levelling stats!

FRET NOT MEGA EVOLUTION LOVERS! The Z bracelet... thingy... Can trigger Mega Evolution! YAAAAAY! So you didn't waste all that time finding the mega stones :D

As with Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, we get to play a demo on October 18th! And witness Ash-Greninja in battle! And, you can transfer Ash-Greninja to your game!!

Just over a month to go now! What are your thoughts on the second stage of the starter Pokémon? Have they changed your mind yet?

Brionne is the gen 7 fanfiction mon, as braxien was gen 6. I'm calling it.

The more I look at the art of brionne and not the 3D models, the more I love it. It's so effing adorable.

i guess bc the target audience of pokemon these days is still like 12 year olds and chuuni which is probably why ash greninja exists in the first place. the anime isnt bad, the whole ash greninja arc is probably the absolute worst thing thats ever come out of it... at least recently? i was hoping theyll kill it dead with the SuMo anime though the fact its in the demo pretty much proves itll live on. christ.

brionne - hetero boy/lesbian furry bait, or furry bait for the casual masses who dont know theyre a furry but kovu from the lion king 2 was kinda hot to them
litten evo - edgy furry bait, or just token cat for little girls who just kinda like cats and have no ulterior motives like my-- i mean. SOMEONES scummy ass
emo owl - neckbeard mens rights activist who still think fedoras and bow ties are socially acceptable to wear in public furry bait

Brionne's name is too similar to Phionne. Going to take some time to get used to which is which.

It's Phione, and it's nothing like it? Lol

Cause Phione I pronounce PHEE-own, and Brionne is BREE-on

double post but MORE POKEMON (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6nEp3WoWr0)

Silvally here evolves from Type: Null! It's Normal and it's ability is RKS System (your guess is as good as mine here folks). In fact, it changes type while holding items - very similar to Arceus and the plates! It has a signature move called Multi Attack, and it matches whatever type Silvally currently is.

Jangmo-o evolves into Hakamo-o! Dragon/Fighting with the abilities Bulletproof or Soundproof! Hakamo-o then evolves into Kommo-o! Dragon/Fighting with the same abilities. Kommo-o comes with a unique move, Clanging Scales!

Bounsweet evolves into Steenee! Grass type with the abilities Leaf Guard or Oblivious! Steene then evolves into Tsareena! Grass, abilities Leaf Guard and Queenly Majesty! Queenly Majesty seems to make some moves not work (unclear which moves at the moment!) and it has the unique move Trop Kick.

We're introduced to two new trainers (A Trial Captain and an Island Kahuna?? Whatever that is). Still no Gym reveals, so we might not see any.

idk where else to post this since it seems Arrogant to make a new topic & i can't find one

but who else tried to Space Out playin the demo for maximum time enjoyment and completely failed and did everything in about an hour aghghghh


edit for clarity: the spoiler only has a few demo Thoughts; none of the Big Illegal Demo Datamining Leaks cos even im stayin well away from those

Spoiler: show
i hate Epic Ninja Frogge being your only pokemon cos oh boy the rants about greninja i posted elsewhere. i hate greninja so much and totes have an ironic conspiracy theory that they nerfed delphox's design cos the pokemon people dont know what girls are and hate the idea of Femininity being anywhere else other than a sideline in the game.

see also: all male characters fighting in the big league and all female characters fannying about in boring contests, every demo with you being the white male character, etc. etc.
(full disclosure: this is all tongue in cheek)



but on the plus side i REALLY appreciate the stat up/down screen cos i can never remember who or what is at what increase/decrease hardly ever

i am also going to have to take a Tumblr Sabbatical probably because apparently there was a lot of datamining and New Pokemon were found and you know what tumblr is like with spoiler decency


im interested to know about these Timed Events tho!!!! (the "so and so will be meeting me in X days" "shady deal going down in X days" stuff)

Any favourite/disliked discoveries from the demo so far?

I'm not enjoying the fact I can't sit anymore.

My favourite quote however is "Let me introduce myself. I'm a mysterious old man"  :laugh:

 I can't get over how cool edgy-owl's final looks. The other two seem like massive fur-bait tho? Like I was gonna go with Fiyah-cat until today's trailer aha.

 What have they done to Persian? Obvs there could be a Garfield reference but it looks... super special...

Persian is actually supposed to look like a British Shorthair. Yknow. Meme cat

Well, I was undecided before, but I have to pick edgy-owl now! The others are cool too though! I was so ready to dislike Litten's final, but since it's Fire/Dark and not Fire/Fighting, I kinda like it a bit more.

Ghost type starter though! Look at it's little hood! It pulls the hoodie strings and closes the hood when it goes to sleep! AHHHHHHH

So gardevoir of the sea, robin hood's ghost if he was an owl, and tony the tiger if he grew up on that side of town. Interesting mix.

Going with special azumarill here.

Gonna have to go with Decidueye... and it's the first time I'm actually picking a not-a-Water-type starter, so it sorta feels kinda weird, but I like every single stage of Rowlet's line a lot. Pretty sure I haven't felt that way about a starter line since Squirtle, for what that's worth.

I've read in a couple of places that Sun/Moon has, or at some point will have, some kind of ability to connect with Pokemon Go.

Okay so I unexpectedly came into a tiny bit of money and managed to preorder Moon for myself and wow I'' excited because I didn'5 think I was gonna get to play Sun & Moon but I am.

Think I will keep my starter at their basic form but who to pick... I actually quite like Popplio
