A Japanese trademark filing has revealed potential names for the mascot Legendaries of the upcoming 3DS titles Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon; “Solgaleo” (ソルガレオ) and “Lunaala” (ルナアーラ) were both submitted for registration.
Solgaleo definitely seems to combine sol/solar with something, possibly “leo” for lion.
Lunaala we are still researching, but the base of luna/lunar is evident.
UPDATE: A working theory is that this could be hinting towards Sun and Moon being based in Spain. In Spanish “luna” means moon and “ala” means wing, thus Lunaala could be some sort of winged Legendary. “Sol” also means sun in Spanish and “león” means lion. Back in 2014 game director Junichi Masuda visited Spain in person and reported the trip on his blog. Coincidence?
A third trademark filing was for “Gigareki”, but it is unknown whether or not it is related to the two, the name of a Pokémon or an entirely separate product.

YES! Just beat the League in Blue (for the first time ever in Gen 1, I may add). That was extremely stressful, mostly because I was only using Blastoise. I think I’m going to take a good long break from Gen 1 by going through Diamond and SoulSilver, and then I’ll return to Yellow sometime later.
Congrats! You gonna catch Mewtwo?
April fool happened long time ago Wat the hell is that ? https://scontent-ams3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xta1/v/t1.0-9/13082630_397526910417697_6147180980628998954_n.png?oh=01879c9a1b74cdb08aace0a77a0acef6&oe=57AC24B8
I think is anybody woke up and saw its own reflection, I think they would find the nearest living thing and kill it

So this is what Team Rocket thinks of fusion
I see an awful lot of talk about different youtubers discussing Pokémon.
All I’m saying is sometimes it pisses me off because they never think of any of the ideas or theories themselves they just take what others have done and then take it
No credit to who originally came up with it. Some are especially guilty of it. Not to mention half the time they have the theory totally wrong or just a ridiculous idea.
Some of the 3 things I constantly see but just clearly are not true. So below is what I know :
1) Ho-oh and lugia won’t be the mascots for Sun and Moon .
2) Its gen 7 now deal with it. Not 6.5
3) Solrock and Lunatone may get megas but come on they aren’t suddenly going to be legendary Pokemon how can people even think this is a thing .. !?!
Finally someone who’s thinking straight
Ho-Oh and Lugia will fuse with Solrock and Lunatone respectively…to give the mascot legends.
True story.
*Pulls out a grenade*
*but forgot to toss*
Haha this made me lol 😀
It’s because they get paid. They don’t care what the topic of the videos are, or if the info is true, or if they steal someone else’s idea; as long as it gets them some views.
I dont see how #2 and #3 are necessarily wrong. They really arent confirmed but still fairly likely
There has never been a gen.5 it’s always the next gen over
And none of that Johto crap, it has its own dex and entire story, the only thing is Kanto was always meant to its neighboring region but that doesn’t make them the same place
I think what .5 means. That its apart of kalos. Its too make it easier to think of. When you say gen 7 you just think of everything new and different, but with 6.5 you think a bit of kalos. Basically Kalos:Kanto as 6.5:Johto. Its not supposed to make you mad. Its just to be simple.
So from now on when you hear Gen 6.5 yes it is gen 7 but its supposed to represent like what johto did and connecting to the previous region.
The Orange Islands and Decolore Islands are theoretically seperate regions, but were there new Pokémon living there? Sun/Moon are gen 7, 2016’s also the 20th anniversary of the Pokémon games, what better way to celebrate than introducing a whole new gen?
And where do all the South Kalos stories come from? Kalos’s obviously a very large region with a significant portion still unexplored, but I highly doubt that GF or The Pokémon Company would troll us by making an X/Y remake and adding a new portion of Kalos to it.
Well i don’t know how it is considered a “troll” and XY is riddled with hints of a nearby region. Sure it could be a completely new region with all new pokemon and no kalos post game, but the way they refer to it as “nearby” catches people eye
yeah but Kanto had very little influence, it was just a post game place
its never been .5 anything
Maybe thats how it will be in the this game but with Kalos. I don’t think you understand the point of the .5
These people think that they’re being cool and innovative by taking an obvious lie and considering it as truth. It seems to me like they’re trying to elevate their “Pokemon status” online by making these stupid, irrelevant connections through past knowledge. There’s nothing but selfishness in the whole “Pokemon theory” business.
3? Then i dont know what youre watching on youtube XD
What really gets me is the click-bait titles/thumbnails. The video posted just a wee bit below this comment thread is a perfect example.
You cannot even patent an idea, so I don’t think you have to credit a jibber-jabber conspiracy.
Agreed 100% the amount of Pokemon Sun & Moon speculation videos is outrageous.
Maybe it will be like a Manaphy-Phione thing and these mysterious legendaries can breed Solrock and Lunatone which can’t evolve?!
Honestly Phione just never should’ve existed
Yeah……
Interesting question. Is it lucky to find 3 shinies in the safari zone in soulsilver or unlucky because two of them escaped?
Both. I’ve found a shiny Paras in leafgreen and fortunately caught it or else I would’ve had a seizure. (my second wild shiny)
Nice! The shiny Machop and Rhyhorn got away but I was able to catch magnemite
Oh man! I lost an Abra due to Teleport HAHA.
And I almost false swiped a Shiny Metang in Friend Safari then I realized it had Take Down. :p
I can’t deal with the waiting anymore. Please can any more new info leak *cries*
THEORY!
Were Ludicolo and Shiftry supposed to have a Mega Evolution in ORAS?
These icon sprites where changed in ORAS: Steelix, Treecko, Combusken, Blaziken, Ludicolo, Nuzleaf, Shiftry, Sableye, Metagross, Diancie. All of them have a relationship with ORAS mega evolutions, excepting those two… hmm coincidence?
Maybe the Mega designs were not going to be ready for the ORAS release (like Mega Flygon) and we will probably see them in Sun/Moon.
I would’ve liked that.
Not I
Quite literally nearly every decent Poke from Gen 3 got a mega
Just for the sake of my sanity no more Hoenn
Another fake design ….I was thinking about grass starter Kakapo parrot and now they did it, this thing is like Torchic and Piplup it will not being a flying type when it evolve.http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1461481701859.jpg
Has it been confirmed as fake?
no need to confirmed.
OOOOOOOH SO CUTE
They are some nice fakes ! I wouldn’t object too much if the officials looked like that 🙂
wow, would love these as the starters.. I can’t decide which one I love the most
These actually look pretty awesome. I wouldn’t be disappointed if they were real, and even if they’re fake, well done to the artist
Though extremely unlike me, I actually like the Sea Pup the best
Oh and btw shady you do realize Chickens and Penguins are flightless birds right? So them being part Flying were out of the question
The only thing I have to say is most were dumbfounded when Empoleon turned up a Steel type rather than a Ice type
Chickens can fly short distances, but negligible, really
Emphasis on short distances, but to still a great degree they’re acknowledged as flightless birds
It is “flyING type” and not fly type so you’re right
Doduo and dodrio are based off of flightless birds and are still part flying
That may be so but my point is valid
Empoleon concept maybe based on war materiel or Commander but I believe the reason they give him steel type due to they want him can slide on ice . http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/jaydee93/70450310/87372/87372_600.jpg
I like them and they are well made, but the fact that they originated from 4Chan is too much of a flag. Sure some people are claiming that they originated on 2Chan or whatever, but that remains to be seen……I do like them though and wouldn’t mind them being real.
I actually really like these, would be really ok if they were real
These are the most realistic “fake” starters yet. They certainly look Sugimori-like. I want that Water starter to be real more than anything else.
I can easily see that sea pup smacking foes with those plank like flippers and diving at them with Aqua Jet
Honestly if they were real i might pick the Sea Lion
http://boards.4chan.org/vp/thread/26048417#p26048417 Apparently those starters were on 2chan and now are taken off so someone decided to draw them. Being taken off is a good sign
There’s a group on 2ch that have been doing this for the past few months. Multiple people post various crudely drawn images of starters they’ve seen, followed by “sources” backing them up and eventually fake scans.
I’d be very sceptical of anything like this, it’s unlikely anyone will see the starters before CoroCoro releases (or an official reveal).
667th comment, phew!
On a more relevant note, I think there will be some nostalgia will be induced in the game on seeing the trailer. They will imbibe(is that the right word?) the 6 generations of gameplay into these two games celebrating the 20th anniversary. What do you guys think?
Hmmm I really like these fake starters
If I were to name them
Kakapuki
Pyrowl
Sklipper
You copied the pyrowl and skipper from pyroar and mudkip ;-;
Look there’s just not so many fire feline names that aren’t repetitive, Pyrowl, Cuburn, Fyger, you come up with something better then
And I took Skipper as a marine title and Flipper since of it being a sea lion
We all suck at names don’t we, Ah, welp I guess Wobbufet(That’s the way it is)
Yeah it’s getting harder each yeah
But some names just work or flow organically
Like my Dark/Steel Evil Treasure Chest (Otherwise known as a Mimic) Treasurous (Treasure + Treacherous)
Or my Water/Steel Crab Rustacean
You were not rusty then huh? lol
Not too much but nowadays they feel forced
Boileo?
Kakapo is the world’s fattest bird I believe.
Do you mean by proportion to its body size or the fattest bird in general?
Actually never mind i googled it and it is the fattest parrot weighing around 4kg
PSA: We could be getting NX news in a few days at the Investors Meeting. Or, at the very least, we could get an announcement of an announcement.
What?
Nintendo Investors Meeting on April 27th. They sometimes reveal new products at these events. “NFP” (Nintendo Figure Project), or Amiibo, was revealed at a meeting at the same time of the year in 2014. It’s only logical that they’d mention a new console that it likely releasing this year.
Oh, that’s cool
Wouldn’t count on anything until E3. Which is only a little more than a month away anyways.
Expect the date aswell 😉 Can’t say much but I’ve seen some stuff nothing major ( No final design or official specs ) but all I’m saying is don’t throw away the Wii U games yet 😉
This is probably a dumb question, but who is better, Sandslash or flygon?
Flygon easily
Garchomp
Sandslash
Flygon, no question
I like Sandslash even though I’ve never used him but Flygon
I have been in love with these starter leaks but then I realized… I like all of them… there is no way they could be real then. GF always throwing curveballs, that makes me dislike at least one thing.
Also I want to state since this is gen 7 Ken Sugimori wants to go Simpler with pokemon designs and other things not quite fully stated. ( http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=707763 )
These starter designs (excluding fire) aren’t really that simple, but it did say COULD. This could also apply to these super complex theories about gen 7.
Empoleon vs Samurott death battle ?
Winner = ?
Literally I believe Samurott because SuperPower of 100 BST on a 88Def Pokemon.
But Favoritism wise, but I prefer Empoleon
you guys sould have back up on the stuff you post! i will not beleive anything till gamefreak says so. so please dont raise ppls hope up if it’s not true.
Please don’t take this rudely as I mean no harm, but Pokejungle’s (the community, not the person) primary function has been locating and discussing leaks (real or not) for years. No one here is raising anyone’s hopes; we’re just doing what we’ve always done: discussing leaks until they’re confirmed/debunked. 🙂
i also think that looking at the trade mark stuff isn’t proof at all. you should know for a FACT that its real. it could be names to a restront or a car
You have to take into account that these trademarks have their owners/filers listed. These wouldn’t be Pokemon news/rumors if we just dug them out randomly.
Well 4chan went into chaos with these “leaks”…
http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1461517663476.png
These surfaced last night(2nd ones). They supposedly match the trademark names.
They look nice, but the cat is to simple, the bird is overdesigned and nothing like an owl, seal is cool. They could be real, but they look off, and have minor errors( which legit leak have had), but the straight up attempt to copy the unova leaks also has me doubting them.
Also it’s to convenient that this leaked afterwards. But we shall see. Thoughts?
The top looks absolutely hideous!
But the bottom is what I love
The owl is nice. The fire and water one aren’t the actual leak though, just a mockup by someone. I posted the actual leak somewhere in this comment string haha. It was in response to Wes.
That owl has supposedly been leaked once before, a few weeks before the trademarks were even filed. ♥
Yup! The owl and co originate from the same 2chthread, two months ago, and actually could work with the trademarks.
Something deep inside tells me that the bottom three starters are real. I’m having visions of the bottom seal rolling around on a ball (as the name Ashimari would imply), some cocky rival owning the fire cat, and a more quiet companion having the bird on their shoulder. They just seem like Pokemon that Game Freak would create for merchandising purposes. I’m highly impressed with the faker, if it is indeed fake. Just compare this to the fake CoroCoro leak from March. People thought those were detailed, but these absolutely blow those out of the water. I’m convinced, to say the least.
well the bottom 3 are fake as pointed out by Dicie. Timmy turner on 4chan had artists make them to fool people, after seeing the trademarks. Don’t get why people fully brought them. Yes they looked good, but anything leaked after a trademark, that matches that trademark, should be doubting heavily, a that’s when artists try their hardest to make convincing fakes.
What is there fire ‘mon in the first set even supposed to be? It looks like a mess.
The ones in the first set are mockups based on the attached images. The image above isn’t 100% accurate, but it captures the basic concept. The fire and water ones appear to have been early sketches, and if real will probably look different a bit, in the final design. I’d say fire is either a rabbit, or cat, which could actually fit with nyabby. It’s like an erupting, volcanic cat.

Bottom three have already been proven fake (creator came clean on 4chan.)
As for the top three…fire and water starters are absolutely disgusting. Grass one, on the other hand, would definitely be my main. Although I have reason to believe those are fake, also.
Pity
Normally I spit upon Water Types but I just love that Sea Lion pup
Just saw this now! Thanks for alerting me! I found them way to suspicious. The first 3 I like, and they match the trademarks and were leaked and unproven before the trademarks were even found. So they have some credibility, but I’m not sold yet. The owl would be amazing though!
???
They all suck.. to me
I just found this in my pictures. Remember when we thought they didn’t reveal every mega in the game?
They were from Deviantart this whole time. It’s difficult not to feel depressed.
http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1461527869120.png
Awwwww Flipup totally blew Sklipper out of the water….literally
And I wasn’t far off with Pyrowl/Fyger
Man I cannot find these on Deviantart, but if you say so
Found them
Link please?
http://marix20.deviantart.com/journal/Sun-and-Moon-Starters-fan-made-604932791#comments
Also, I knew these were too good to be true. there is no way I was going to like all 3 starters.
Those names made me want to throw up . ?
Like those who are disappointed that the starters were proven fake, as they did look nice. Let’s not forget the terror of when this was supposedly the BW starters….
Um…
Wow.
Is this your first time seeing these ? I tell you when they first came about and I saw the fire one I nearly cried with laughter and how vile it looked haha.
It’s face. … ?
Snivy was pretty darn close though.. but such s thin tight silhouette didn’t leave much room for imagination
It’s so funny how many fake leakers are coming out of the woodwork now hahahah And they’re all doing similar styles of art where it’s on a white piece of paper . lol
Has anyone seen these GORGEOUS fake box art for Sun and Moon. ? Very nicely done. The Pokémon look so fierce but elegant. I really like them. The Moon legend a bit more but I’ll still use Sun game as my main 😉
Pics/link?
They are provided you have to refresh
Thanks
No problem 🙂
Just so . Generic to me. All fakemon look this way I think
That’s fair, some things I’m Not too fond of. What are you hoping for yourself ?
I have no real hopes lol. I just want it to be released already.. guarantee I’ll like it. I’m not picky! ?
Hahah same ! I’m definitely going in with high hopes 😀
I think I’m getting Sun. Downloaded. You?
I’ll get Sun as my main defo. I’ll also get Moon but that will be my restart one if the urge sets in haha. I’ll buy them physical because I work with games so i get a hefty discount haha 😀
I Always Restart!
Only my Togetic survives lol.
Takes me forever to get my team right
Haha stop I’m the exact same. I restarted sapphire today and I’m using prinplup and Vigoroth so far but it took me ages to decide on them alone.
Don’t get me started on finding breeders… figuring out moves… whose going to mega! “Why have this pokemon on my team if the other will mega, I should use something better.. is there one from this gen?” Thank goodness for hackers.. though their hard to find
Primplump?
Its prinplup…. Yes I have Pokémon Bank and I breed alot
The lion’s face looks like the lionturtles from Avatar haha
I mainly want my togetic to learn better fairy moves this gen… selfish .. I know ?
Prob have to wait til the end for a tutor or something . .. ?
HAHAHAHA HE SAID HE WANTS BETTER FAIRY MOVES FOR A TOTETIC
Why even bother, your just going to spam Air Slash and Thunder Wave
Wants better fairy moves ha
You are I’ll informed. I said Togetic.. not Togekiss..
Not even similar playing styles, as Togetic needs eviolite and cannot learn Air Slash.
Regardless… why do you care so much of what I want anyways?
It’s just a random thought and you attack it. I understand its another slow news day but…
Chill ( -, -)
You forgot I am the site’s top fairy hater
And I am the sites top player (this can be taken IRL or Pokémon ) 😉 sorry I just wanted a moment there…. Carry on good sir
Lol… but aren’t you more of a rock steel kind of a guy..? Fairy is pretty irrelevant to you
Ground
Same difference..
Fairy got nothing on you
Tell that to all the crap from Flinch Spaming Togekisses, all those choice banned Azumarill and Whimsicott Spaming sub leech seed
Fairies need to DIE!!!!!!!!
Para flinch togekiss is deathly ?
I was always more impressed by cinccio or whatever it’s name is.. when it comes to this. Flinch.. power boost.. and speed!
Same applies to Jirachi
Seriously you cannot deny a 60% chance to flinch isn’t horrifying
I see … your Pokemon aren’t known for their speed
Tell that to my Excadrill and Garchomp
And my Nidoking is very fast too
I mean ground types in general though. Go second… then you may flinch
And it keeps coming and coming and you lose
Last time some douche got 7 flinches
Lol. You should always have a counter on your team. 1 speedy poke
My Garchomp is naturally faster but that changes when they’re scarfed
Who runs Scarf Togekiss?
Ok, Scarf Jirachi is a thing…
Oh.. OK.. so you care more about the Pokemon themselves.. not their typing and moves
That’s grass and flying paired
Y all artist insisted the same concepts? http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1461533512558.png
These are worse
No fake can convince me but drawing skill here r good.
That fire one makes me want to puke my ass off
Yeah, I’m not fond of the Fire one… It doesn’t look like a Fire starter. I don’ mind the Water seal thing. The Grass bird has one leg…
It’s bent
But honestly this seal doesn’t do it for me, I want Flipup
What’s Flipup?
Refresh
Oh it’s cute! It reminds me of Oshawott. I don’t care for that thing on his head though
Fishing cap/ears
I just love those long plank like flippers
I bet it can deal out a mean Doubleslap
I’m not opposed to these either but the detail in colour is too much. Hence automatically fake :
I think I like this owl more than the parrot, but the other 2 are kind of meh…..
Okay, so I re-started my X version (I also restarted my Black, White, Black 2 and White 2 versions) but I need some opinions… What Mega should I add to this team:
Greninja
Venusaur
Pyroar
Meowstic
Weavile
I’m debating between Manectric, Herracross, Aerodactyl, Scizor, Gengar
Your team would-be pretty balanced with any of those megas. Just not Gengar tho. I’m gonna say Scizor or Heracross.
I was leaning towards Herracross because it fits my character (which is based off my dog) or Manectric
Ok, assuming that is an in-game team, Manectric is a Y exclusive. And its replacement Houndoom clashes with Weavile AND Pyroar, so goodbye to that.
My suggestion is: Meowstic and Manectric out, and Ampharos/Helioptile, Alakazam and Aerodactyl in. Any of the “A” Pokemon can be your Mega.
Ampharos is on my other X team, and I have Y version also, so the fact that Manectric is Y exclusive isn’t an issue.
Ah nice, so imports are allowed!
Sorry, had assumed you had to catch all of those on the way to the champ. <3
it seem all these new fake design r centered about cat,bird and seal I wonder y? I feel I was miss something…..is this related about these names and how could u know it will be like that???
Someone mentioned that the so-called starter Japanese characters mentioned a seal water type, feline fire type, and a crow-like grass type. This was way way back but still on this page.
so it’s not related to these names that Spetsnaz was post?
I don’t remember who posted it but I just remember seeing it on this page a few days ago.
It is, most people think that three of the six names are for the starters.
Mokuroh-could translate to “Wood Owl” or “Wood Crow” (Grass Starter)
Nyabby-Some sort of feline according to the “Nya” part (Fire)
Ashimari-Translates to “Water Sea Lion” or something like that (Water)
I hope that this clears it up for you.
